Imagined Map of National and Cultural Identity : Deterritorialization, Reterritorialization and Village Signs in Hungarian Villages in South Slovakia
Original language description
The article shows a recent example of symbolic geog raphy and attempts to analyse the practice of reterritorialization of space by stress ing cultural and national character. The author shows that globalisation might cause the disappeara nce of borders in advance of business, work and study but on the other hand it can cause e mergence of symbolic borders based on cultural and national identity. The article is base d on a limited research in south Slovakian villages with Hungarian population focusing on village signs written in runic Székely writing which is identified by the author as transported na tional symbols from Transylvania that recently became ideal representations of authentic Hungarian culture. The signs create a link to Greater Hungary, manifest the cultural and histo rical supremacy of Hungarians and signifies the territory, resp. reterritorializes th e space. The reterritorialization process creates a mental map that unites the Hungarian nation and sho ws that meaning and territory are strongly bounded.
