A nemzetiségi törvény megalkotása
The Creation of the Act on National Minorities

Summary/Abstract: One of the key elements of Hungarian public thinking is the question of nationalities and its historical aspects. For well-known historical facts, the questions and answers of national minorities still have constitutional significance. The examination of the Act XLIV of 1868 on the Equality of Nationalities, including its antecedents, has not only importance from the point of view of legal history, but it is also essential for the cultivation of the current constitutional law, and, consequently, also strongly contributes to the understanding of today’s legal institutions. The essay describes the process of drafting this legislation.
