| Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to explore the ways to analyze the modern history of East-Central European countries (mainly the former Habsburg monarchy and its successor states) using the methods of comparative politics and, then, to reintegrate their political development into the overall framework of the European political development. Concrete themes of the research are, firstly, the process of democratization of the political systems through the establishment of the parliamentary government and the extension of the suffrage ; secondly, the development of the party systems, especially the comparison of the roll of the peasant parties ; and, thirdly, focusing on the case of early 20^<th> century Hungary, the process of political mobilization of the peasantry and the workers.
According to these aims, I have been collecting the relevant literature and materials and doing the analyses based on these materials. On the first theme, I have made a short survey of the literature on the political development of East European countries, and this will be contained in the research report. Currently I am preparing an article on the political development of the late 19^<th> and early 20^<th> century Habsburg monarchy on the three levels of common institutions, Cisleitanian half, and Hungary. On the second theme, I have collected the relevant literature, especially on the political mobilization of the peasantry and the development of the peasant parties in each region/country in East-Central Europe, and made a preparation for the further research. On the third theme, I have almost finished the analysis of the public statistics of the industrial conflict in Hungary in the early 20^<th> century, and currently I try to find the proper means to gather the data concerning the collective violence in the same period from the annual reports of the metropolitan police of Budapest.
