Abstract

With all its contradictions. the Dualist era can be considered one of the most prosperous periods in the history of Magyarkanizsa. Following the Austro–Hungarian Compromise (1867) Magyarkanizsa’s economy experienced an upswing. In 1870 the municipality purchased its pastures and public spaces from the state in a compensation treaty. Renting out the lands bought from the crown meant a significant source of income for Ókanizsa due to the ever-increasing numbers of lifestock. Article XVIII 1871 Act establishes the administrative and organizational framework for the municipality. In accordance with the municipality act, Ókanizsa qualified as a large-municipality and could elect leaders, judges, notaries, public trustees, treasurers, doctors. The law, documenting significant advances in administration, provided interoperability between the different municipality types, due to the fact that the decision fell solely under the jurisdiction of the Minister of Internal Affairs. The status of a town with an organized council could only be modified to legislative authority by passing a law. After changing its name from Ókanizsa to Magyarkanizsa in 1904, the municipality took this opportunity and achieved the status of „city with organized council” in 1908.
