Abstract

The paper deals with the problem of the preservation of ethnic identity of Hungarians in the demographically threatened border areas of Prekmurje (community of Murska Sobota). The native indigenous population (most of them are Hungarians) has a lot of economic and social troubles. A distinctive passivity in the relationship to the ethnic identity is to be perceived.
