Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the next census that had initially been scheduled for 2021 was postponed until later this year. Mr. Kramarenko asserts that the number of representatives of a national minority does play a big role for them as the minority\u2019s self-government because the amount of the governmental subsidy directly depends upon the size of the respective ethnic community.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"503\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament.jpg 503w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament-216x300.jpg 216w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament-370x515.jpg 370w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament-185x257.jpg 185w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament-20x28.jpg 20w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament-400x557.jpg 400w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/kvparlament-34x48.jpg 34w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 503px) 100vw, 503px\" \/><figcaption><em>Viktor Kramarenko, Chairperson of Hungary\u2019s All-National Rusyn Self-Government.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>An important activity of the national and local Rusyn self-governments is organizing summer camps for children. According to Viktor Kramarenko, such camps are held at <a href=\"https:\/\/rue.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/%D0%91%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BD\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Balaton Lake<\/a> or other localities; each camp is attended by up to 15 kids, and the program, apart from entertaining, includes Rusyn lessons and folk songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2018, the National Self-Government won a grant to build the Rusyn Greek Catholic Centre and Museum in Debrecen. The national flag, the coat of arms, and the cross for the Centre were consecrated by Pope Francis during a personal audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the whole, Hungary\u2019s Rusyn community seems to actively organize various cultural and enlightening activities. Here is an incomplete list of the events that were organized by the Budapest Metropolitan Rusyn Self-Government, Ter\u00e9zv\u00e1ros Rusyn Self-Government, and Antal Hodinka National Association of Rusyn Intellectuals this summer: a presentation of <a href=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/2022\/07\/27\/rusyns-and-natives-of-subcarpathia-buried-in-budapest-a-book-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rita Szil\u00e1gyi\u2019s book <em>Walks across Cemeteries<\/em><\/a>; a conference in memoriam of the historian K\u00e1roly M\u00e9sz\u00e1ros, the author of the <em>History of Ungv\u00e1r <\/em>book; a conference in memoriam of the historian Antal Hodinka\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regretfully, the Rusyn nationality school in <a href=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/2022\/07\/01\/komloska-a-town-in-modernity-and-the-past\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Koml\u00f3ska<\/a> was closed two years ago due to a lack of pupils (Viktor Kramarenko says that there were only five kids enrolled during the last school year in the village). Koml\u00f3ska is known to be the heart of the little Rusyn communities in its neighborhood \u2013 the villages of Erd\u0151horv\u00e1ti, Tolcsva, V\u00e1mos\u00fajfalu, and the towns of S\u00e1rospatak and S\u00e1toralja\u00fajhely. In Mucsony which is considered the other Rusyn village in Hungary, the Rusyn language and literature are taught as facultative subjects. The situation is aggravated by the fact that residents of Koml\u00f3ska speak the Pryashivan Rusyn dialect (and the textbooks for the school in Koml\u00f3ska were printed in Slovakia), while in Mucsony it is the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pannonian_Rusyn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pannonian Rusyn<\/a> language that is spoken. In addition, <a href=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/2022\/06\/01\/rusyn-related-streets-in\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rusyns in Budapest<\/a> and other cities mostly come from Subcarpathia, hence is the third variant of the Rusyn idiom in Hungary. The linguistic institution headed by Mih\u00e1ly K\u00e1pr\u00e1ly announced its plans to codify the \u2018Hungarian Rusyn\u2019 based on the three abovementioned patois, but it is still unclear how it could succeed. Meanwhile, Hungarian Rusyns have published quite a few textbooks for elementary schools (regretfully, they are not available on sale, so taking into account the situation with Rusyn ethnic schooling it seems that they are <em>art for art\u2019s sake<\/em> so far).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rusyn library can boast of about 2,500 book titles (fiction, nonfiction, dictionaries, textbooks, etc.), subscriptions to Rusyn magazines, and of course all publications of the National Self-Government \u2013 and some books are really fancy and rare. Ildik\u00f3 Pol\u00e1nszkin\u00e9 N\u00e1das, the head of the library and a genuine enthusiast of librarianship, has a good eye for valuable books: she scrolls over the Internet antiquarian bookshops and tries to buy what is really worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"764\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-764x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5674\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-764x1024.jpg 764w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-768x1029.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-370x496.jpg 370w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-800x1072.jpg 800w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-185x248.jpg 185w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-740x992.jpg 740w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-20x27.jpg 20w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-400x536.jpg 400w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n-36x48.jpg 36w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284837817_552845859544619_1664052922989804476_n.jpg 806w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 764px) 100vw, 764px\" \/><figcaption><em>Ildik\u00f3 Pol\u00e1nszkin\u00e9 N\u00e1das, the head of the Rusyn Library and a genuine enthusiast of good books.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A more detailed survey of publications of the National Rusyn Self-Government will appear soon; here I would like just to showcase some pearls from the library and note that it also holds three to four presentations of its activity a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"764\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-764x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-764x1024.jpg 764w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-768x1029.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-370x496.jpg 370w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-800x1072.jpg 800w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-185x248.jpg 185w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-740x992.jpg 740w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-20x27.jpg 20w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-400x536.jpg 400w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n-36x48.jpg 36w, https:\/\/rusynsociety.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/284923985_430332805575379_7425021712923273508_n.jpg 806w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 764px) 100vw, 764px\" \/><figcaption><em>History of the Munk\u00e1cs Greek Catholic Eparchy by Antal Hodinka.
