Geográfia és turizmus. Interjú Hanusz Árpád professzorral [Interjú] = Geography and Tourism: Interview with Professor Árpád Hanusz [Interview

Árpád Hanusz was born in 1946 in Ipolytölgyes. His talent was noticed early on, and at the recommendation of his headmaster, he continued his secondary school studies at the Sztáron Sándor High School, where he graduated in 1964. He completed his higher education at the Nyíregyháza Teacher Training College, majoring in Geography and Biology, and even when he was a college student he considered it important that, in addition to acquiring theoretical knowledge, it is also necessary to make use of practical experience. In 1994, he defended his PhD thesis and successfully completed his habilitation. He was appointed university professor in 2001 in recognition of his decades of teaching and research work of an exceptionally high standard. His field of research changed over time, his interest turned from caving to exploring the issues in human geography. This is how he became a nationally recognized specialist on the socio-economic effects of tourism and its consequences on rural development. Professor Hanusz, known as the ”Teacher of Szatmár”, did a lot for the development of rural tourism not only in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county, but also beyond the borders of Hungary.

ЂУРАЂ И ВУКАШИН АРБАНАС ОД КАРАШЕВА: ЦРТИЦЕ О ЈЕДНОЈ ПЛЕМИЋКОЈ ПОРОДИЦИ ИЗ 15. ВЕКА С ПРОСТОРА БАНАТА

The paper deals with the noble Arbanas family (Hungarian: Orbonász) of Carașova, whose members performed important administrative and military duties in the southern border areas of Hungary during the 15th century. The scarce source material allows us to follow only the basic outlines of their activities. The most prominent members of this family and the founders of its two branches were the brothers George and Vukašin Arbanas. In 1437, George kept the royal castle of Carașova in present-day Romanian Banat (Hungarian: Krassófő, Serbian: Karaševo) as an honour, which proves that he already had a significant position in the borderline Caraș (Krassó) County at that time. In the Hungarian and Romanian historiography, it is considered that the brothers originate from a Serbian noble family from the territory of Albania. It is interesting that two Serbian annals mention a certain Vukašin Zuprović as a prominent participant in the Hungarian campaign against the Ottomans in Serbia in 1437. The civil war in Hungary after the death of King Albert (1439) favoured the further rise of the Arbanas brothers. As a supporter of King Wladislas I and John Hunyadi, George reached the position of the count of Timiş (Temes) in 1441–1442. Vukašin was given a significant role in the management of Timiş County, as some kind of his brother’s representative. The offspring of George and Vukašin built their careers on the southern border of Hungary during the reign of Matthias Corvinus. In the late 1480s, George the Younger performed the duty of the captain or the ban of Belgrade, while Vukašin’s son Peter was the captain of the Haram castle on the Danube in Caraș County (1489).

The appearance of the results of bilingualism research in secondary school education in Transcarpathia and Hungary

Over the past decades, the development of Hungarian language varieties beyond the borders of Hungary and the state language influences that have been manifested in them have attracted considerable attention in linguistic research in Hungary and beyond. In a large part of the literature on the subject, the authors also emphasise the importance of language and language use awareness for achieving adequate communication in all contexts, which is undoubtedly closely linked to the quality of mother tongue teaching in schools and to the language attitudes and linguistic biases of teachers. However, there has been relatively little research on the form and quantity of the results of bilingualism research in school education in Transcarpathia and Hungary. The aim of this paper, therefore, in response to the above-mentioned gap, is to provide an overview of the materials published in Transcarpathian and Hungarian curricula and textbooks on bilingualism research and to present the specificities of the two countries. Based on the analysis of state standards, curricula and textbooks, it can be said that the results of bilingualism research are reflected in the Hungarian language curricula of secondary education in Hungary and Transcarpathia. At the same time, while the Hungarian National Curriculum, the framework curricula and the related textbooks are characterised by a continuous enrichment of the materials related to bilingualism and language varieties from across the border, a certain regression can be observed in the education of native Hungarian speakers in Transcarpathia.

Border Formation

This doctoral thesis examines the militarisation of the Southern border of Hungary as a process of spatial formation, expanding the debate on borders from the political to the architectural arena. Combining spatial theory with empirical research on the case study, the thesis rethinks the border as a complex spatial system, with an agency of its own. From this perspective, it contests the enforcement of spatial boundaries from the above and related ideas of fixity. It brings attention to the agency of space in the advancement of a material becoming; the role of migration in the radical redefinition of meanings and functions of space; and the action of technologies in the strategic manipulation of measures and scales. While conceptualising the border as a space in formation, this thesis builds a diagrammatic method of study and moves the research in an ontoepistemological direction. With the aim of fostering a change in those structures that control the partition and governance of space, this doctoral study calls the discipline of architecture to review its questions, methods, and practices. It invites to use architectural knowledge to engage with borders’ complexity and challenge their established meanings and makings.

ASSESSMENT OF RIVER SEDIMENT QUALITY ACCORDING TO THE EU WATER FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE IN LOWLAND FLUVIAL CONDITIONS. A CASE STUDY IN THE DRAVA RIVER AREA, DANUBE RIVER BASIN

The EU Water Framework Directive requires the monitoring and evaluation of surface water sediment quality based on the assessment of risk posed by contamination on the biotic receptors. Fluvial sediments are important receptors of hazardous substances (HSs) pollution from the upstream catchment areas in the Danube River Basin (DRB). For the development of systematic sediment quality monitoring and evaluation, the Drava River region on the border of Hungary and Croatia was selected as a test area representative of lowland hydromorphological conditions. Overbank (floodplain) sediments and river bottom sediments (stream sediments) were sampled at two depths at 9 locations in the test area. Eight heavy metal(oid)s were analyzed As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, and Zn as hazardous substances. The sediment quality assessment was carried out according to the 2013/39/EU Directive and EU Water Framework Directive standards. Most of the analysed HS concentrations in river bottom sediment and overbank (floodplain) sediments fall within the limits of environmental quality standards (EQS). Results show that there is no significant differences in metal(oid) HS concentrations among the various sediment types and between shallow (0-5cm) and deeper (stream sediment: 5-10cm; floodplain sediment: 40-50cm) sediment which suggests that the large lowland Drava River fluvial system is an extensive single fluvial system with homogeneous distribution of sediments and the associated contaminants. Specifically, the studied sediments in the tributaries of the Drava River do not seem to be contaminated with metal(oid) hazardous substances but at certain sites concentrations are elevated above the environmental limit values, especially for As and Zn, and to lesser extent for Cr. The data analysis techniques used enabled the identification of sites with anthropogenic pollution and the recognition of regional pattern in HSs distribution.

Problematyka narodowościowa Rusi Zakarpackiej

Nationality Problems of TranscarpathiaThe article discusses ethnic diversity and the changes which took place in Transcarpathia in the 20th century. First, the author presents the historical background for a statistical-demographic analysis. He points to the peripheral location of the region and the fact that it often changed its political affiliation. Thus, for a period of almost a thousand years the province was included within the borders of Hungary; between 1919 and 1939 it became part of Czechoslovakia, and after a four-day long period of independence (14–18 March 1939) it was again incorporated into Hungary between 1939 and 1945. After World War II it was part of a Soviet republic, and since 1991 it has been included in the independent state of Ukraine.Each of these periods brought far-reaching demographic and ethnic consequences. The population of Transcarpathia consisted of Slavic people of Ruthenian origin, mostly Greek Catholics. The inhabitants of the province were subjected to Hungarian, Ukrainian, and Russian influences and believed in different options, such as pro-Ukrainian, pro-Russian, or separatist, i.e. Ruthenian. These issues are discussed in detail in the article and thoroughly interpreted by the author. He also points to the fact that the territory of Transcarpathia was inhabited by numerous ethnic minorities. The Hungarian minority has always been the most important, both in the past and in the present; today it is concentrated in the south of the province. In the past, Jews and Germans also constituted sizeable minorities, while Romanians and Slovaks were always of marginal significance there. The final part of the article presents the scale of the separatist tendencies which may have dangerous political consequences in the future.

Політичний простір угорської нації: ресурс споріднених діаспор

The article presents the process of reformatting the practices of national development through an expanded interpretation of the endogenous political space of the national community. It is noted that the EU spatial strategies have a significant impact on the revision of the priorities of regional development of modern states, which, seeking to ensure the sustainable development of their own political systems, turn to the socio-political capital of related foreign diasporas and border regions. In the context of the spatial revolution and the recognition of the actual political space as a constructed system, the nationalpolitical space acquires the characteristics of a flexible network system where new practices of national cohesion are formed, which are not limited by the sovereign borders of the state. An example of the transformation of the process of national cohesion in Hungary is presented, which involves the incorporation of related foreign diasporas of Southern Slovakia, Transylvania, Vojvodina and Transcarpathia into a single socio-political system without revision of state borders. The socio-political development of Hungarian diasporas abroad is managed centrally through state institutions and programs. On the example of the creation of an extensive network of Hungarian political parties and NGOs within the socio-cultural spaces of the Hungarian diasporas, the process of building a system of autonomous projects along the perimeter of the borders of Hungary is shown, through which it seeks to modernize its own national doctrine by providing it with a transnational component. Hungarian policy considers Hungarian communities as a resource that can provide a political transit for the national doctrine, which provides a modern component of the ethno-national idea, and makes it possible to respond to the spatial transformations of the EU.

Nicolaus von Redewitz – ein Diplomat und Informant des Deutschen Ordens am Hof von Sigismund von Luxemburg

Nicolaus von Redewitz – the Teutonic Order’s diplomat and informant in the court of Sigismund of Luxembourg At the end of 1422, Sigismund of Luxembourg, King of Hungary and Holy Roman Emperor, allowed the Teutonic Order to have a permanent diplomatic representation in his court, in the person of Nicolaus von Redewitz. This was related to the fact that from the beginning of the 1420s, the Ottoman Empire posed an increasingly serious threat to the southern borders of Hungary again, and Sigismund wanted to win over the Order for the fight against the Turks. Arriving in the court of the king, von Redewitz kept the Grand Master of the order informed of Sigismund’s political plans, decisions, negotiations, military actions against the Turks, and all-important events. A recurring theme in his letters was the king’s urge that the Order take on the defence of the southern borders of the Hungarian Kingdom. In return, he first offered the Grand Master the Burzenland in Southern Transylvania, from where Andrew II, King of Hungary, expelled the Order in 1225, then the Banate of Severin by the lower Danube. Following long negotiations, at the end of July 1429, a few Teutonic Knights arrived in Hungary. These knights did not undertake the armed protection of the southern borders, only its organisation. Sigismund entrusted the management of twenty-one fortresses and military watch-posts to the Knights, who envisioned the reinforcement of the defence with the involvement of mercenaries. However, the Hungarian Treasury was unable to provide the expenses for this plan. When, at the end of the summer of 1432, the Turks launched an attack at the lower Danube, they managed to occupy three fortresses under the control of the Order. Recognising that the Order’s idea of the protection of the borders is impossible to finance, at the end of 1434, Sigismund agreed to the gradual return of the Teutonic Knights who had arrived in Hungary in 1429 to Prussia.

The latest ‘southern protection system’ and the revived ‘fortress of Europe’ topos in Hungary

Abstract As a response to the processes of international migration in the Balkans, the Hungarian government in 2015 constructed a technical border defence system on the southern border of Hungary, also assigning manpower to guard the border. As a response to migration, this is not unique in Europe if we also consider previous and subsequent events. Although this topic has already been addressed by several authors from different perspectives, this paper is the first to analyse in detail the construction and characteristics of the technical border defence system, and the structure and operation of the assigned police and military forces. The paper also examines how government policy related to the protection of the southern border and the fence revived the ‘Hungary, the fortress/bastion of (Christian) Europe’ concept, and also how the Hungarian government communicated this in order to achieve its political objectives.

Variant Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTRv) in Hungary: First Data on Epidemiology and Clinical Features

Background: Variant transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) is an autosomal dominant inherited disease, where the mutation of the transthyretin gene (TTR) results in the deposition of pathogenic protein fibrils in various tissues. The mutation type influences the clinical course. Until now, no data were available on the genotype, phenotype, and prevalence of Hungarian ATTRv patients. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence, regional distribution, genotypes, and phenotypes of Hungarian patients with ATTRv. Methods: With the collaboration of Hungarian regional and university centers, we identified patients diagnosed with ATTRv. We also searched prior publications for case studies of Hungarian ATTRv patients. Results: 40 individuals in 23 families with ATTRv were identified within the borders of Hungary. At the time of the diagnosis, 24 of them were symptomatic. The two most common mutations were ATTRHis88Arg (nine families) and ATTRIle107Val (8 families). ATTRVal30Met was demonstrated in 2 families, and ATTRVal122del, ATTRPhe33Leu, ATTRIle84Ser, and ATTRAsp18Gly in one family each. The median age of the symptomatic patients at the time of clinical diagnosis was 65 years. The most common clinically significant organ involvement was restrictive cardiomyopathy, found in 24 patients. Polyneuropathy was diagnosed in 20 patients. A total of 19 patients showed a mixed phenotype. The leading symptom was heart failure in 8 cases (3 of them had only cardiac symptoms), polyneuropathy in 11 cases (all of them also had cardiac symptoms), and equally severe cardiac and neuropathy symptoms were present in 3 cases. Out of 24 symptomatic patients, 10 received targeted pharmacological therapy. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 195 months. At the time of the retrospective analysis, 12 patients had already died, and 1 patient underwent heart transplantation. Conclusions: As TTR genotype influences the phenotype and clinical course of ATTRv, it is important to know the regional data. In Hungary, ATTRHis88Arg and ATTRIle107Val are the most common mutations in ATTRv, both presenting with mixed phenotype, but the median age at the time of the diagnosis is 9 years lower in patients with ATTRHis88Arg than in patients with ATTRIle107Val.

The fate of one university in the context of changing borders in Central Europe (Kolozsvár — Cluj — Szeged)

An example of how epoch-making historical events in Central Europe affected the fate of an elite educational institution is the history of the second Hungarian university, founded in 1872 in the main city of Transylvania, Kolozsvár. This university was forced to leave Transylvania as a result of its reunification with the Kingdom of Romania in December 1918 following the First World War. Romanian professors from the “Old Kingdom” entered the university buildings built in the era of Austro-Hungarian dualism, located in the same city that changed its name from Kolozsvár, to Cluj. They were tasked by the new authorities to facilitate the integration of the region into Romania. The Hungarian University moves within the new borders of Hungary, to the city of Szeged. The creating of this powerful center of elite Hungarian culture became one of the essential directions of the cultural policy of the conservative regime. Its representatives saw the transformation of Hungary into a bastion of high European culture on the threshold of the Balkans as one of the ways to compensate for the enormous national infringement that the Trianon Peace Treaty of 1920 was for millions of Hungarians. The resettlement to Szeged, however, by no means put an end to the history of the Hungarian University of Transylvania. After the second Vienna arbitration for the transfer of Northern Transylvania to Hungary (August 1940), the Hungarian university in Cluj was restored, and the Romanian one moved within the narrowed borders of Romania. In the post-war Romania, under the left-wing authorities, and later the communist regime, which was not interested in aggravating the Hungarian-Romanian contradictions, both Romanian and Hungarian universities functioned in Cluj for a decade and a half, until in 1959, amid the rise of Romanian nationalism, an independent Hungarian university was closed.

Hungary as a Norm Entrepreneur in Migration Policy

This paper analyses Hungary as a small state within the EU and the policy it applied during the refugee crisis of 2015/2016 that changed the landscape both on the European and Hungarian level. During the crisis, Hungary acted as a small, interest-maximizing Member State constrained by domestic political interests and it did not only refuse to participate in common European policy proposals to solve the crisis, but it also engaged in unilateral actions perceived as solutions, such as erecting a border wall on the Southern border of Hungary. This paper examines how Hungary acted during the refugee crisis with the help of small state theories. Presenting the events, legislative changes and discourses surrounding migration policy in the past years will show that Hungary managed to take advantage of the refugee crisis by acting as a norm entrepreneur which gave the Prime Minister the opportunity to articulate his own views and convictions about the right way to solve the crisis and also about the future of the EU as a whole. Many EU Member States joined Hungary in its migration strategy and so it became the leading country of the anti-immigration block in Europe.

What and how do Hungarian children read?.

The first representative survey about reading habits in Hungary was conducted in 1964. Among others it gauged the number of people reading and what they read. Since then only four researches were pursued of the kind, thus it was time we carried out a new analysis at the end of 2017. While compiling the questionnaire and analyzing the result I had the possibility to work with data that could be interesting for researchers beyond the borders of Hungary. In my study I focus on children in the 3–18 age range divided to age groups, and I present the types of books they read. I also examine other components of their behavior related to their reading habits (What they read apart from books, which part of the week/day they dedicate to reading, which genres they prefer etc.). Talking about digital natives, I pay special heed to the correspondence between reading aptitude and the time they invest in using the internet and their smart phones. Last but not least I make an attempt to sketch a general picture of Hungarian reading habits (laying special emphasis on the youth), and the changes we can notice compared to the previous surveys.

The Protection of the Northern Borders of the Kingdom of Hungary (Slovakia) with Poland in the Middle Ages

The frontier defense system of the Kingdom of Hungary, which consisted of guard settlements, gates and border fortifi cations-made of piles of stone and earth, rows of fallen trees, artificial hedges – as well as ditches (gyepű in Hungarian) was established in the 11th century. This socalled “gyepű line” was guarded by special troops called speculatores, consisting mainly of Hungarians, Siculs, Pechenegs and Cumans. It surrounded the territory of the state from all sides like a hoop. On the northern border of Hungary, in present-day Slovakia, a defensive system was built on road crossings leading to Moravia, Poland and Galicia. It used the mountain ridge of the Carpathians, which formed a natural barrier between the countries mentioned, and disappeared during the 13th century. But it is from this period that most written data is available, when some frontier guards were promoted and reached the ranks of nobility, while others left their guard posts and moved to another location. Most of them were bestowed by the king together with the settlement upon new aristocratic owners. It was also the case with frontier guard sites locatedtoward the Polish border. Many of the frontier settlements manned with border guards were deserted by their former inhabitants (Fintice, Slivník). The Tatar invasion of 1241 showed that this system was ineffective. Therefore, Hungarian crown began the construction of new stone castles, a few of which had already existed before and proved their worth. New stone fortresses had been erected throughout the country, but especially near the borderline. A whole chain of castles was established in the Little Carpathians, the valley of the Váh River, as well as the Orava Castle, Liptov, Spiš, Stará Ľubovňa Castle, etc., which better suited the new requirements of the Kingdom’s defense.

The application of functional cognitive linguistic pedagogy under the conditions of linguistic minorities

Abstract The paper gives an overview of the general and special factors of L2 learning of Hungarian minorities across the borders of Hungary, that is, in Slovakia. Indigenous minorities like Hungarians in Slovakia are strongly interested in fluent state language knowledge. Still, the state school system failed to work out and implement a suitable language pedagogy for linguistic minorities, since the state curriculum comprised only one type of Slovak lessons, the one for pupils speaking Slovak as their mother tongue. This curriculum does not consider the special needs for bilingual pupils (on different levels of bilingualism) and those growing up in pure minority environment. The paper introduces functional cognitive linguistics as a usage-based theory and descriptive activity that gives new methods for L2 learning and teaching, building on the vernacular linguistic and conceptual knowledge of the pupils, focusing on the meaning – form pairs of linguistic expressions both in the vernacular and the second (state) language. In the second part, certain grammatical units are discussed as the topic of functional language pedagogy: lexical units and their grammatical adjustment to the syntactic and semantic structure of the sentence, or metaphor in use. In the third part, the topics of the previous section are treated in a comparative Hungarian – Slovak style, as examples of L2 teaching methodology.

Identification of overloaded migration concept in migration theory

The study examines the effects of regular and irregular migration on the Schengen external borders of Hungary, following the principles of classical and modern migration theories, using their analysis, applying the theory of science theory (Hautzinger, 2018, 11-21). From the data analysis evaluation it becomes possible to identify a feature that has not previously appeared in the European context, nor has it touched the nations of other continents in such a complexity as it has Hungary in 2014 and 2015, as well as with the requirements of the existing national Schengen regulatory frameworks. From the evaluation of the relationship between data analysis and the related elements, a new, previously unexplored and unpublished approach to the effects of migration has been identified, its description and the creation of a new concept. The results of the methodological research on the overload characteristic of regular and irregular migration may be the subject of independent studies.

Ércföldtan Magyarországon a Földtani Közlöny 150 évének tükrében

Áttekintésünk a Földtani Közlöny megszületésének 150. évfordulójára készült. Célja, hogy a folyóiratban megjelent közleményekből felépítve adjon összegzést a hazai ércföldtan eredményeiről. Áttekintettük az összes, a Közlöny hasábjain megjelent közleményt, s ebből választottuk ki azokat, amelyek valamilyen szempontból jelentős súlyban hoztak napvilágra ércföldtani információt. Úgy változtattuk az áttekintésünk területi merítését, ahogy az ország határai változtak, a történelmi Magyarországra és a mai határainkon belül eső területekre. Az időszakot a politika és történelem diktálta szakaszokra tagoltuk, amelyek egyúttal az állam gazdasági struktúrájában, ezen belül ásványvagyon politikájában fellépő változásokat is tükrözték. A mai országhatáron kivűl eső területeken lévő lelőhelyek esetében a magyar név mellett a ma érvényes helységneveket is feltüntettük. Az információ bőség és a terjedelmi korlát kettős szorítása miatt egy-egy (mégolyan fontos) lelőhely említésére is csak 1-2 mondatot fordíthattunk. Az ábrák néhány legfontosabbnak ítélt telepegyüttes földtani térképe, szelvénye és teleptani modellje révén mutatták be az ismeretek bővülését és az értelmezés fejlődését. Néhány általunk legjelentősebbnek vélt olyan személy nevét is kiemeltük az egyes időszakokban, akik véleményünk szerint a legfontosabb alakítói voltak a mindenkori szakmai tudásunknak. Az összes válogatásunk szubjektiv volt, amit a ma aktív szakemberek három generációját képviselő társszerző csapat önellenörző képessége útján reméltünk kordában tartani.

Az objektív túlterhelés rendészeti kihívásai az irreguláris migráció kezelésében

Following the principles of classical and modern migration theories, the study examines irregular migration at the Schengen external borders of Hungary using their analysis and the application of science theory methodology. The evaluation data identifies a migration feature that has not previously affected nations of Europe or other continents in its complexity as Hungary in 2014 and 2015. Based on the examination of the data and the interrelationship between the related elements I can describe a novel approach to the impact of migration, the objective overload of the activities of the policing agencies, which I describe as a new concept. In this paper I introduce a previously unrecorded migration typology element that explores the possibility of verifying the identity of a migrant. I compare the objective effects of migration overload on Hungarian policing organizations with those of mass migration events of the 20th century. The differences reinforce the discrepancy between the concepts of overload and mass migration. By describing the organizational surfaces characteristic of overload migration and its purpose, I also reinforce the novelty of the concept. The objective migration overload effects on policing organizations can be dealt in a meaningful way with a novel methodology, of which 5 elementsare presented in the paper.

A túlterheléses migráció kifejezésének helye a migrációelméletben

A tanulmány a klasszikus és modern migráció elméletek tanait követve, azok elemzésének felhasználásával, tudományelméleti módszertan alkalmazásával vizsgálja Magyarország schengeni külső határain a reguláris és irreguláris migráció (Hautzinger, 2018, 11-21.) hatásait. Az elemzések értékelési adataiból beazonosíthatóvá válik egy olyan jellemző, amely korábban nem jelentkezett európai viszonylatban, illetve más földrészek nemzeteit sem érintette abban a komplexitásában, mint Magyarországot a 2014. és 2015. években, a hatályos nemzeti és nemzetközi, valamint schengeni normatív szabályozókeretek közti elvárásokkal. Az adatok vizsgálatának és a kapcsolódó elemek összefüggéseinek elemzéséből beazonosíthatóvá vált a migráció hatásainak újszerű, korábban nem kutatott és publikált megközelítése, annak leírása, egy új fogalom megalkotása. A reguláris és irreguláris migrációra jellemző túlterhelés módszertani kutatási eredményei önálló tanulmányok tárgyát képezhetik.

Pripojenje Međimurja Kraljevstvu Srba, Hrvata i Slovenaca

Autor na temelju arhivske građe iz Zagreba i Beograda, novinskih izvještaja i stručne literature daje prikaz događanja u Međimurju koja su uslijedila nakon narodnih istupa ili Međimurske revolucije. Prikazan je pokušaj zaposjedanja 13. studenog 1918., koji je zbog nedovoljne pripremljenosti propao. Uslijedile su intenzivne pripreme za drugu vojnu akciju, koja je uspješno provedena 24. prosinca 1918., kada je Međimurje vojnim putem pripojeno ostatku hrvatskih zemalja, tj. novoosnovanome Kraljevstvu Srba, Hrvata i Slovenaca.
