  In the study, using data from an international research (Myplace), relying on the theory of
  social representations, we examined the understanding of radicalism of young people aged 15
  to 26 and living in two towns in Hungary (Ózd and Sopron) which differ significantly regarding
  their political socialization. In accordance with an empirical method based on the theory,
  we analyzed the relationship between young people’s attitudes towards nationalism and the
  democratic principles and the representation of radicalism, following the structural and content
  characterization of the representation of radicalism through the quantification of associational
  responses received in the questionnaire survey conducted in 2012.

  The study examines the linguistic landscape of the territories of Transcarpathia (Ukraine) which
  are mostly inhabited by Hungarians in the context of language and economy. It will be presented
  how economically prestigious world languages, English and Russian are displayed in this region.
  We show that economic realities suppress the nationalism of the minority int he linguistic landscape.
  We note that the language policy in support of the language maintenance of the national
  minority can not be successful if it is not related to the development of the economy. If we want to
  improve the economic situation of the Hungarians of Transcarpathia in a multilingual environment,
  the teaching of languages is one of the areas where it is necessary to invest.
