Catch-all – czy można oprzeć się tendencjom? Partie węgierskiej mniejszości narodowej w Rumunii i na Słowacji

The aim of this article is to verify the thesis that the parties of the Hungarian minority (SMK, Most-Hid in Slovakia and UDMR in Romania) resist to the catch-all trend. The period from the first free elections to the 2016 elections has been analyzed. The thesis has not been confirmed – the Hungarian national minority parties are catching the catch-all trend, but in the different level. It was shown that the catch-all strategy was much stronger in the Hungarian minority parties in the Slovak party system and an attempt was made to clarify this difference.
