The situation of Hungarian minority households with children in Transcarpatia

Summary/Abstract: In our study, we present the situation of Hungarian minority households with children in Ukrainian villages based on the results of our qualitative and quantitative researches. In the exploratory research, 23 interviews were made, and in the questionnaire, research data were obtained from a total of 139 households and 253 children. We present the poverty of households with children along the standard of living and the deprivation features of the households. The coreof our analysis is the specific labor market situation, the earning opportunities, and forms ofemployment that provide for livelihoods for the households with children. Beside the backwardnessof the area studied in the research, the strategies and life situations that characterize theTranscarpathian Hungarians are also presented, which are beyond the known European formsof poverty.
