Dispute over the Minority Rights in the Shadow of the Federal Transformation of 1968: Sources on the History of the Czechoslovak Nationality Law

Summary/Abstract: The most significant consequence of the Prague Spring for Czechoslovak history was not the brief taste of freedom enjoyed by citizens but rather the federalisation of the state. The Constitutional Law of Federation was passed on 28 October 1968 and led to the federalisation of Czechoslovakia. In Czechoslovakia Csemadok (Czechoslovak Hungarian Workers’ Cultural Association) represented the most important institutional framework for the cultural reorganization of Hungarians since 1949. The organization was originally a cultural association, but Csemadok was considered the most significant social power of the Hungarians in Slovakia, and it participated in the advocacy efforts, too. In 1968, during the Prague Spring period, Csemadok supported the liberalization policies, tried to change into a political interest group and asked for more rights and privileges for the ethnic Hungarians. The document compilation aims to present the attempt to organize the Hungarian minority.
