A peer review csoport megállapításait az 5. fejezet tartalmazza. A 6. fejezetben a fı erısségek, gyengeségek, lehetıségek és veszélyek (SWOT analízis) kerülnek bemutatásra, a peer review csoport javaslatai az Észak-alföldi régió számára pedig a 7. fejezetben találhatók. A peer review szakértıi csoportja által vizsgált kérdések – melyek részletesen a 4. fejezetben kerülnek bemutatásra – a következık voltak: a nyilvánosság figyelmének felhívására alkalmas kommunikációs eszközök, megújuló energiaforrások használatára és energiahatékonyságra irányuló projektfejlesztés, valamint az elızıekkel kapcsolatos regionális és helyi szervezetek közötti együttmőködés javítása. A régió megújuló energiaforrásokban igen gazdag, ám ezeket a lehetıségeket közel sem aknázták még ki és – mint növekedési lehetıségek – nincsenek kellıen hangsúlyozva a különbözı regionális fejlesztési dokumentumokban, pedig a megújuló energiaforrások fejlesztésének fontos szerepe lehet a gazdasági növekedésben. Ezért javasolt a megújuló energiaforrások és az energiahatékonyság növekedési és profit lehetıségeinek összegyőjtése helyi és regionális szinten. A régióban továbbá számos magasan képzett szakértı és tapasztalt szervezet van, aki érintett a megújuló energiaforrások és az energiahatékonysági fejlesztések regionális elırehaladásában. Ennek ellenére a peer review csapat úgy véli, hogy a megújuló energiaforrások és az energiahatékonysági kérdésekben érintett különbözı szervezetek közötti együttmőködés és koordináció javításra szorul. A szerepek, felelısségek, célok és kötelezettségek részleteit tisztázni kell az emberi és pénzügyi erıforrások hatékony felhasználása érdekében. A régió már meglévı energia stratégiája általános és inkább leíró jellegő, valamint jobbára országos szintő. A regionális energia helyzet vizsgálatára fektetett nagyobb hangsúllyal – beleértve az energiahatékonysági, illetve megújuló energiaforrásokban rejlı lehetıséget, erısségeket és potenciált a regionális növekedéshez kapcsolódóan – ez javítható. Az energia stratégiának továbbá proaktív megközelítést kell megfogalmaznia a nyilvánosság figyelmének felhívásával kapcsolatosan. Általában az Észak-alföldi régióban a regionális fejlesztéseket és beruházásokat hosszú ideje a kormány felügyeli. A fosszilis tüzelıanyagokon és nukleáris energián alapuló régi struktúrák még mindig dominálnak, még akkor is, ha vannak megújuló energiaforrásokra és energiahatékonyságra koncentráló projektekre vonatkozó jó példák. Ezek a beruházások azonban alacsony prioritást élveznek és többnyire a helyi és regionális önkormányzatok valósítják meg az EU Strukturális Alapok támogatásaival. Magyarországon általánosságban sok lehetıség van a projektek állami támogatására és a bemutatott projektek nagy részét iii közintézmények kezdeményezték és finanszírozták. A régióban kevés a magánkezdeményezés a vállalkozói kapcsolatokat, projektfejlesztéseket és beruházásokat illetıen. Fontos, hogy a régió elsı és országosan ez idáig egyetlen regionális energia ügynöksége az ENEREA. Azonban úgy látjuk, hogy nemzeti szinten az ENEREA nem igazán ismert. Az Észak-alföldi régiónak nagyobb hangsúlyt kellene fektetnie arra a tényre, hogy itt alakult az elsı és egyetlen magyar regionális energia ügynökség, hiszen más európai régióknál látva a regionális energia ügynökségek nagy elınyt jelentenek egy régió számára. iv Summary in English The peer review of Észak-Alföld took place in November 2012 and consisted of presentations and interviews with national, regional and local actors and stakeholders as well as study visits to relevant sites. The observations of the peer review team are described in chapter 5. In chapter 6 the key strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) are presented and in chapter 7 recommendations of the peer review team to the region of Észak-Alföld is found. The scope for the peer review, presented in chapter 4, for the Észak-Alföld peer review team was about measures for awareness raising communication, enhanced RES /renewable energy sources) and EE (energy efficiency) project development, as well as improving the cooperation in regional and local RES and EE development. The region holds a favourable potential for RES production. It is however underutilised and not emphasized as a growth mechanism in the regional development documents, even though RES development could play an important role for economic growth. The region is therefore suggested to compile the growth and profit potentials of EE and RES on local and regional level. The region has a number of highly skilled actors involved in the regional development of RES and EE development. The peer review team however found that cooperation and coordination between the different institutions involved in EE and RES questions need improvement. The areas of roles, responsibility, objectives and duties need to be clarified, in order to achieve an efficient use of human and financial resources. The existing energy strategy of the region is general and more of a descriptive document, and mostly on national level. It can be improved by emphasising on the regional energy situation, including possibilities and strengths and the potentials of EE and RES in the regional growth. The energy strategy also needs to promote a proactive approach to awareness-raising. Historically, regional development and investments in general in Észak-Alföld has been controlled by the national government for a long time. Old structures with big scale solutions for energy conversion based on fossil fuels and nuclear power is still dominating, even if there are also good examples on local projects in RES and EE. Investments in RES and EE have low priority and are more or less made by regional and local governments with funding from EU structural funds. In Hungary in general there are a lot of possibilities for public project funding and most of the projects presented were initiated and financed by public bodies. There is a lack of private initiative in entrepreneurship, project development and investments in the region. Worth noting is that the region holds the very first, and so far the only regional energy agency of Hungary, ENEREA. However, ENEREA is rather unknown on national level. Észak-Alföld should raise the fact that they have the first regional energy agency in Hungary, as experience from other regions in Europe show that regional energy agencies can be a great asset for a region. v vi Table of contents Summary in Hungarian ......................................................................................................................... iii Summary in English ................................................................................................................................ v Table of contents .................................................................................................................................. 1 1 Introduction to Regions4GreenGrowth .................................................................................... 3 1.1 Introduction ........................................................................................................................... 3 1.2 The project Regions4GreenGrowth .................................................................................. 3 1.3 Peer review methodology .................................................................................................. 4 2 Background on the Észak-Alföld region ................................................................................... 7 2.1 Introduction ........................................................................................................................... 7 2.2 Energy situation and targets ............................................................................................ 12 2.3 Organisations and organisational aspects .................................................................... 17 3 Focus of the Észak-Alföld peer review .................................................................................... 25 3.1 Hypothesis ...........................................................................................................................

    Eötvös Loránd University Faculty of Humanities Doctoral School of History Theses László Ravasz and the Calvinist Education Policy in Hungary Between the Two World Wars Gáborné Varga 2011 1. The Hungarian Reformed Church, and Calvinist people in the Hungarian society The visible and invisible church, the organization and the Christianity of the people confessing the disciplines of Christ jointly formed the history of Europe and Hungary. The Reformed Church, that is the church reformed by the Gospel (i.e. the Word of God), had to fight not only for its own survival, but also had to make sacrifices for Hungarian independence and its intellectual rise for centuries. The fight was survival was a complex one itself, involving components of inner weaknesses and outside forces. Material and intellectual gain usually happened after traumatic periods, which opened new avenues for restart. One of the consequences of the lost battle against the Turks in 1526 was that whole counties remained without priests. Thus, after 1526 migrating preachers could spread the new disciplines, novel intellectual streams, the Lutheran then the Calvinist teaches in the country, which was divided into three parts. By the end of the 16 th century 80-90 percent of the population in Hungary was protestant, mainly Calvinist. By 1734 all four church districts were established and the primary curator and secondary curator positions were set. The absolutist Habsburg power tried to exercise a variety of methods to suppress the protestant intellectual mentality during the period of counter-reformation. Finally the Edict of Patience (Joseph II) during the “enlightenment” period at the end of the 18 th century, created a legal framework for religious freedom and church self-government.

  • Hungary 2015 International Religious Freedom Report
    HUNGARY 2015 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The Fundamental Law (constitution) provides for freedom of religion, including freedom to change religion or belief and freedom to manifest religion or belief through religious acts or ceremonies; it voices respect for all religious traditions existing in the country. The constitution separates church and state and stipulates “religious communities” (which encompass “incorporated churches” and “religious organizations”) are independent legal entities, but the state may cooperate with them on community goals. Parliament must approve by a two-thirds majority the application of a religious organization to function as an incorporated church, a status which provides for tax benefits and government support. The previous deregistration of more than 350 incorporated churches remained in effect despite Constitutional Court rulings during the year that certain provisions of the religion law were unconstitutional or in breach of the European Convention on Human Rights, and a 2014 ruling of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) declaring the underlying law violated the right to freedom of association read in light of the freedom of religion. Some minority religious groups reached agreement with the government on their compensation claims based on the ECHR ruling, but others returned to the ECHR for final settlement. The access of minority religious groups to state funding and religious activities at public institutions remained limited. Government officials reiterated “zero tolerance for anti-Semitism” and assumed the chairmanship of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA). During the year, officials made statements seemingly equating national policy with Christian policy. There were reports of anti-Muslim sentiment as the migrant crisis in Europe intensified.

Redescribing of pre-modern period The author - without finding new sources but reinterpreting facts of the positivist books and studies - tries to form a new vision of the international patterns and home alternatives of the premodern period. In the middle age the Hungarian schooling followed the “Caroling-model”: we describe the role of the Hungarian state, the monasteries and the bishops if we follow the methods and findings of the famous book of Southern. It is necessary to redescribe the period which started in the 16th century. The traditional factology (which was the main methodological viewpoint of the history of education in the last one hundred years) was not able to describe and interpret some very strange elements in the history of Hungarian education.
