„Itt csak cigány iskola lesz” – Szegregálódó közoktatás és társadalmi dezintegráció egy magyarországi községben
“There will only be a Gypsy school here” – Segregating public education and social disintegration in a Hungarian village

Summary/Abstract: Since 2010, the quality of education has deteriorated, and socio-ethnic segregation has increased in Hungary in parallel with the establishment of the illiberal state and the expansion of the labour market. The research presented here examines the systemisation of these social processes through the example of a single-school village. Based on semi-structured interviews with local teachers and other actors, ethnic discrimination significantly determines the everyday life of the village. The narrative related to the school focuses primarily on the lack of educational effectiveness and discipline. Based on the results of the research, the study argues that the local effects of national educational policy processes play a prominent role in the reproduction of local ethnic segregation.
