Absztrakt (kivonat)
In my study, I will discuss the career path of the lecturers of the Marxism-Leninism Department of the József Attila University of Szeged (JATE), where, like in other higher education institutions, only the most politically reliable persons were allowed to teach during the decades of socialism. I formulated my research question in terms of the social milieu from which ideological teachers came to teach at the university. This may be important to give a more accurate picture on the lecturers who ran the Rákosi and Kádár regimes in terms of their social base. My hypothesis is that they were predominantly individuals of peasant or working-class origin who were raised by the system. I believe that they were the ‚faces’ or ‚talking heads’ of the political system in the domestic higher education system, who saw themselves as the masters of life and death. In addition, the status of lecturers was a position of trust in higher education, within which only politically trustworthy, loyal Communist Party members were employed. The teaching unit under study was characterised by the teaching of subjects that were compulsory for students. Some of the former ideological instructors were not able to transcend their own shadow because of their social status. In other words, many of them were not sufficiently innovative to be able to fully renew themselves professionally after 1990. Based on my research so far, I believe that not all Marxism-Leninism teachers were proud of their origins, or tried not to boast about them. This may be particularly interesting in the light of the fact that the socialist regime built its policies on the very people who came from the working class and peasantry. In an institution of higher education, however, a different standard prevailed, and the lack of education soon became apparent in their behaviour. In addition, the teaching profession was not for all of them either, since the teaching habitus had its own characteristics, the absence of which could lead to conflict between students and lecturers, which could damage the authority of the lecturers. In my view, the deeper a talent comes from the periphery, the more socially driven he/she is. There is no doubt that these people have come into universities to teach through considerable social mobility.
