A politikai igazsagszolgaltatás a II. világháború utáni Budapesten
A II. világháború utáni igazságszolgáltatás a magyar történetírás és a történeti emlékezet sokat vitatott kérdése. A kötet szigorúan fegyelmezett és következetes kvantitatív módszertan segítségével meghatározza, kik kerültek be a népbírósági folyamatba, hogyan működött a népbíróság, különösen a társadalmi nemek szempontjából, valamint hogy milyen hatással volt a népbíróság tevékenysége a poszt-soá zsidó identitás alakulására. A kötetnek az is a célja, hogy elfogultságoktól mentesen, objektív adatok alapján bemutassa azt a komplex folyamatot, amit a II. világháborút követő népbírósági eljárásnak nevezünk. Barna Ildikó az ELTE Társadalomtudományi Kar Társadalomkutatások Módszertana tanszékének adjunktusa. Pető Andrea a Közép-Európai Egyetem Társadalmi nemek tanszékének docense.
Far Right Movements and Gendered Mobilization in Hungary
In this paper is strictly focused on a so far painfully neglected phenomenon: the gender appeal of the far right for women. consciously therefore, the author will not refer to the discussion of the dominant normative political masculinity that has resurfaced in recent years. The study is not rooted in the traditional political sciences’ methods, but instead seeks to contribute to a new field of analysis. It explores possible causes of the popularity of the far right among women in Hungary. In doing so, it does not deny however that there is a considerable gender gap in terms of support for far right political views. In the light of the Median Survey, men are in fact twice more likely than women to identify with such views.

Gender and citizenship in a multicultural context
The articles in this book share a dedication to broadening and stretching the scholarly field of feminist citizenship studies and invite the reader to reflect on the many different ways citizenship is formed in contemporary Europe. They do so by stretching the concept of citizenship itself, going beyond legalistic definitions, and by asking new questions about the ways in which citizenship is constructed, the entitlements to benefits, and to social and political participation, how cultures of knowledge allow participation and how inclusion and exclusion can be represented. In all cases «gender» is one of the categories that allow a deeper insight and a better perception of the way the ideals of citizenship have helped people to overcome exclusion. As the articles show, access to citizenship differs from context to context. Citizenship is never only a legal status: it has to do with cultural diversity, with recognition of difference, with access to professions and hierarchies on the labour market, not least in universities with traditions in political as well as visual representation. The collection is an introduction to new research in the field of European gender studies.
