European Journal | France: The Gillardeau Dynasty

Slovakia is home to a sizeable ethnic Hungarian community that is pushing for greater autonomy. The government in Bratislava opposes the initiative, which has put a strain on relations between Slovakia and neighbouring Hungary. Recently the government produced new geography textbooks for Hungarian schools in Slovakia, in which the Hungarian place names had been removed and replaced with Slovak equivalents. The decision provoked outrage within Slovakia's ethnic Hungarian community, with subsequent attempts by the government to defuse the situation proving to no avail. European Journal takes a closer look at the simmering ethnic tensions in Slovakia.
