    The study examines the realization and the development of legal protection of equal opportunities
    in the labour market. The purpose of the research is to identify the most common problems
    related to the violation of equal opportunities during the period since the Equal Treatment
    Authority began its work.
    The study explores whether types of discrimination can be identified, which are the most
    prominent and which are the most disadvantaged characteristics of the labour market in
    Hungary today. The correlations discovered demonstrate that although regulation of the legal
    background has greatly facilitated the awareness of individuals in this field, there is a need to
    create further forums of discussion to achieve measurable results.

  • What is Alpha Generation?

    According to Mannheim (Mannheim 1969), age group can be considered as a generation if it is
    characterized by a common immanent property, generational consciousness, community status,
    and three conditions are required: a common experience; actual peer-to-peer orientation and
    common situational interpretation, attitudes, forms of action (Mannheim 1969). Based on this
    model Strauss and Howe (Strauss – Howe 1991), states, that a generational change happens
    in around 15-20 years. Based on the relationship with the information society, the X, Y and Z
    generations are interpreted, but the concept of Alpha generation is also defined. Our article
    describes the story of the Alpha generation, the content attributed to the generation, and tries to
    answer the question: can this concept be interpreted in the paradigm of the generation of ages?
