Fenomén nacionalismu v maďarsko-slovenských vztazích Konflikty, traumata, styčné body ve výkladu společných dějin 19. a 20. století
Nationalism in Hungarian-Slovak Relations: Conflicts, Traumas, and Common Points in the Interpretation of the XIXth and XXth Social History

Summary/Abstract: In this article the author presents a summary of the results of a comparative analysis of selected works of historical literature by Hungarians and Slovaks, which were published between 1918 and 1985. The analysis was oriented to controversial questions of Hungarian-Slovak social history, and also considered the ideological and political development of the two national communities. The author concludes that in interpreting and judging historical events considered key by Slovak and Hungarian societies, their political elites, and historians, there exists a clear psycho¬logical incompatibility, whose roots lie in the assumed antithetical character of the national interests of these communities and in defence of their own identities.
