A népi szociográfia nemzeti radikalizmusa

Erdei Ferenc, Féja Géza és Veres Péter társadalomszemléletének kapcsolódásairól

Abstract

This study analyzes the group formation within the populist sociographers that expresses a national radical policy in contrary to the existing Christian-national trend. This political view is the base of a common platform among Ferenc Erdei, Géza Féja and Péter Veres. The paper examines the approach to society of this group that intents to draw the attention in their sociographyc writings to the inherited new socialization of Hungarian farmers and intents to establish a new national radical policy based on the farmers. This analyze points out that these three writers also share – beyond the opposition policy and the emancipation program of farmers – the vision of a social progress building on the tradition of the farmer society. In addition, the study highlights that these three sociographers are common to place the inherited opportunities in the social progress of the farmers living in the Alföld in the middle of their concept in the contrary to the other group of populist sociographers (Gyula Illyés, Zoltán Szabó, Imre Kovács). Erdei, Féja and Veres perceives the option to renew fundamentally the dead-end Hungarian social progress by the social progress of the farmers living in the Alföld. By comparing the social approaches of these writers, we analyze to what unfounded value statements this committed national radical policy leads in the descriptions of the society.
