Abstract

Our study examines how attitudes towards family and gender roles have changed since the ultimate collapse of communism in Hungary. With respect to evaluating the effects of the regime change, it is important to note that Hungary is unique in having pre-transition measures on attitudes from the International Social Survey Program. In analyzing the nature of value shifts, an arithmetic method that decomposes the changes into population turnover and individual (period) components is used. According to the results, period effects fluctuated over the quarter of century, while the population turnover effects point continuously and clearly towards liberalization of family and gender-role attitudes. Since the period effects were usually stronger, they shaped the fluctuating nature of overall change. Namely, there is a clear trend towards re-traditionalization immediately following the regime change and liberalization thereafter, although there are also signs of continued support for traditional values. The series of repeated modules of the ISSP allowed us to examine a key premise of the Second Demographic Transition (SDT) theory in the case of Hungary. We concluded that the detected direction of the attitude change does not support the examined premise of the SDT. * This article belongs to a special issue on “Demographic Developments in Eastern and Western Europe Before and After the Transformation of Socialist Countries”.
匈牙利家庭和性别角色观念的四分之一世纪变迁
我们的研究探讨了自匈牙利共产主义最终瓦解以来,人们对家庭和性别角色的态度发生了怎样的变化。在评估政权更迭的影响方面,需要指出的是,匈牙利在国际社会调查计划中对过渡前的态度进行了测量,这是独一无二的。在分析价值观转变的性质时,采用了一种算术方法,将变化分解为人口更替和个人(时期)部分。结果显示,时期效应在这四分之一个世纪中有所波动,而人口更替效应则持续、明确地指向家庭和性别角色态度的自由化。由于时期效应通常更强,它们决定了整体变化的波动性质。也就是说,尽管也有迹象表明传统价值观继续得到支持,但在政权更迭和自由化之后,立即出现了重新传统化的明显趋势。通过国际社会科学标准研究所的一系列重复模块,我们得以在匈牙利的案例中研究第二次人口转变(SDT)理论的一个关键前提。我们得出的结论是,检测到的态度变化方向并不支持 SDT 的研究前提。* 本文属于 "社会主义国家转型前后东欧和西欧的人口发展 "特刊。
