Unterrichtspolitik – kirchliche Interessendurchsetzung in Ungarn nach 1848
The Educational Policy. The Implementation of Denominational Interests in the post-1848 Hungary

Summary/Abstract: In the 19th century Hungary there was introduced religious freedom, separation of State and Church and equality of religious denominations. The above made up the substance of social transformation. The most eminent politicians of the 19th century era, such as József Eötvös and Ferenc Deák, tried – in the interest of the unity of the nation – to reduce the religion-based tension. The social and denominational movements that developed throughout the country, tended toward defining the position of the Church in the State. In this context the school policy made up an important issue connected with the process of modernization and the determination of the relationship between the State and the Church.
