The geopolitical hallmark of the region is its intermediary position at the crossroads between major cultural and political hegemonies. Its collective memory can be characterized by five common historical wounds (traumas), which have had a decisive impact on social and religious transformations: (i) the lack of national sovereignty, (ii) the refusal to provide protection for minority groups, (iii) politically-determined social mobility, (iv) persecution of religions, churches and dissidents, and (v) genocide and other cases of mass killing. The pervasive presence and political instrumentalisation of this wounded collective identity can (and perhaps should) be taken as the preeminent explanatory factor when interpreting the present-day success of populism and the social role of religion and the churches.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Andr\u00e1s M\u00e1t\u00e9-T\u00f3th received a doctorate in Catholic Theology from the University of Vienna (1991) and a second doctorate in Communication Science from the University of P\u00e9cs (2011).In 2000, he founded the Department for the Study of Religions at the University of Szeged and has directed it until today. His main research interests are the theoretical interpretation of contemporary religious processes and particularly the interaction between social and religious trends in Central and Eastern Europe. M\u00e1t\u00e9-T\u00f3th is the author of over 200 scientific papers and 30 books in Hungarian, German, and English. He is a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Religion in Europe (Brill). His most recent research will be the object of a forthcoming book in German, Verwundete Identit\u00e4ten: Freiheit und Populismus in Ost-Mittel-Europa [Wounded Identities: Freedom and Populism in Central Eastern Europe] (Herder, 2018).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n https:\/\/religion.ceu.edu\/node\/288<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9835,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9832","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-novosti"],"acf":{"facebook_opis":""},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/historiografija.hr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/andras-mate-toth.jpg?fit=480%2C480&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":52834,"url":"https:\/\/historiografija.hr\/?p=52834","url_meta":{"origin":9832,"position":0},"title":"“Spatial Worlds of Medieval Central Europe: Real, Imagined, and Conceptual”, Budapest, 19\u201321 May 2027","author":"Filip \u0160imunjak","date":"6. svibnja 2026.","format":false,"excerpt":"Following successful conferences in Budapest (2014), Olomouc (2016), Zagreb (2018), Gda\u0144sk (2021), Bratislava (2023), and Munich (2025), the Seventh Biennial Conference of MECERN (http:\/\/mecern.eu\/) will focus on spatial worlds in medieval history, especially in Central Europe.
