    Associating Left and Right – the meaning of ideology in a Hungarian context
    (Видавництво Львівської політехніки, 2011) Fehér, Balázs; Szabó, Ágnes; Fodor, Judit; Szabó, Ádám; Miklós, Nóra
    In the last decades of political ideological research, the existance and meaning of the Left-Right dimension has been questioned. In our study we employed a free associations method to determine the meaning of these categories. Our results prove that Hungarians do use these categories and they contain a distinct meaning that is diverse but interpretable. Many features emerge that cannot be found in Western European countries such as: conservatism associated with the political Left and wanting change with the political Right. The abscence of economical factors is also notable. We believe that the data obtained by the free associations method provides an excellent ground for international comparisons, especially among countries with a postcommunist heritage.

    Adolescents' social representation about political Left- and Right-wing ideologies
    (Видавництво Львівської політехніки, 2011) Szabó, Ágnes; Fehér, Balázs; Miklós, Nóra; Szabó, Ádám
    In daily discourse people often talk about the ‘left’ and ‘right’ as a potential label of their political identity. Are these names just simple labels or do they have an underlying content? The social representations theory can be a conceptual framework to examine the core- and peripheral contents of ideologies. A plenty of research have investigated adults’ political views and thoughts, but only a few studies concentrated on teenagers’ opinion and concepts about ideologies. The aim of this paper (as a part of a bigger research) was to reveal adolescents’ social representations of the political Left and Right. Using the Five Words Association Method we attempted to explore the social representation of political Left and Right among adolescents. 228 high school students participated in the study. Data showed that the core structure of the representation is formed by current political actors, ideologies and symbolic contents, such as colors regardless to the wing. In addition, periphery mostly included actual-political contents, methods and tools of political activity. An affective evaluation also was characteristic for both sides, however, the direction varied. Left was associated more often with negative adjectives and deviant behavior. These findings refer to the importance of historical context.
