Summary/Abstract: In this work are presented studies of cultural policy, dilemmas about determination and definition of the concept, as well as the influence of cultural policy on identity preservation of Hungarians in Vojvodina, first of all their cultural identity.

The number of various manifestations, diverse in content, is increasing year-on-year, and a growing devotion to identity and identification with Hungarian cultural elements such as maternal language, religion, and education, lead to the thinking about the causes of this trend. To begin with, some possible answers to this question are given.
