On December 8, 2020, the Institute of Linguistics of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences published an online version of the collection " Linguistic Landscape of Nationalities in Hungary " - (Editor-in-Chief: Ana Borbelj).

About the release:

The studies of the published collection speak about Hungarian nationalities and describe part of the linguistic landscape of the Bias, Bulgarians, Croats, Germans, Armenians, Roma, Romanians, Serbs, Slovaks, Slovenes and Ukrainians. The aim of the publication is to show the presence of nationality in the Hungarian linguistic landscape. The authors are members, activists and researchers of the represented communities, who have chosen the central theme of their studies themselves. These themes help us to understand more deeply how the language and culture of Hungarian nationalities appear in the linguistic landscape, but also to find out: where they do not appear, where there are shortcomings. The introductory study of the collection summarizes two decades of joint and comparative linguistic research on Hungarian nationalities: Dimensions of linguistic diversity: from the announcement of the competition “NKFP 5/126/2001 – Possibilities for the preservation of minority languages” until the present publication. The collection of studies can also be used for educational purposes, as part of teaching activities.
