  The aim of this paper is to analyse the methods and effects of a children group, which existed
  from 1995 till 2005. The relevance of this group is, that the beginning of this period preludes the
  constitution of the Hungarian child protection law. After the transmission period the emerging
  social service system provided (or at least tried) supports and services. Those families whose
  children were involved in this child group were dealing with unemployment, poverty, lack of
  proper housing, abuse, deviance and addictions. The significance of this group that the given
  service was easily ductile to the needs of the children and families.

  The economic and political crises of the last two decades have been greatly influenced by the fact
  that, impacted by manipulative effects, instead to follow their rational judgements people have
  made their decisions under the influence of emotional and instinctive temtation, deception and
  manipulation. So far, these manipulative influences dominate contemporary commercial or populist political communication. The paper below shares the author’s hesitation that, while
  non-rational factors bias from rational arguing and reasoning, both in decision-making and in
  communicative impacts on the other person inevitably present, is it acceptable to manipulate
  the users/clients by assisting professionals/social workers while exercising influence on decision-making of their clients? And if so, under what conditions, what specific constraints could be
  exercised such impacts and „professional power”? Likewise, when and what can and should be
  done to immunize clients against manipulation, to mitigate manipulative effects, to „gain back”
  rational mind and „empower” clients to follow rational consideration and make wiser decisions?
  The article does not undertake to provide „only” true and correct answers, rather gives insights
  and tries to provoke its reader to contribute to clarifying this important issue.

  The change of the linguistic landscape is a sore spot for the minority population that can be
  driven out of the virtual language use. Linguistic landscape is not only indicative of the language
  vitality of an area or region’s population, but can also reflect the real language ethnicity.
  Extralinguistic factors are as important as the two basic functions of linguistic texts and
  the models explaining the elements of the linguistic landscape. Such a factor is a small area
  or region’s economic, in our case touristic development. The increased tourist demand of the
  majority brings about numerous phenomena that are of significant influence on the linguistic
  landscape of the minorities’ territory. This research is aimed at revealing the influence a local
  economic investment makes (can make) on the formation of the territory’s linguistic landscape.
  I would like to show the changes in the linguistic landscape recorded by Hodinka Antal Research Centre in its photo database of 2011–2012, February and September of 2016, as well as of 2017 on the
  basis of my observations and photographs.

  Globalisation is a complex and worldwide process overarching historical times and continents.
  It started with the great geographical discoveries, continued with the emergence of world trade
  and the development of a truly global market reaching its present status. Globalisation has both
  negative and positive effects. Out of the positive effects it has to be emphasised that more and
  more zones of our planet benefit from the advances in sciences and techniques, more and more people have better access to work, education and the necessary commodities to meet their basic
  needs. Globalisation has brought efficiency and new opportunities to companies, providing practically free access to raw materials, labour and knowledge. Out of the negative effects degradation of the biosphere, the greater social and economic inequality especially in the developing
  countries has to be pointed out. Some companies are operating worldwide and have acquired
  great economic power and influence. Governments have only limited possibilities to regulate
  their operation. The expenses of profit maximisation are high, which are often ‘paid’ by the social-natural environment (as externalities). The aim of our study is to overview how current
  business relations could be formed to be more human and environment friendly from the point
  of view of Christian philosophy. It has to be pointed out that our study is focusing on the Christian
  point of view, although in our globalised world when studying business relations we should not
  forget about the role of other world major religious groups.
