What Convergence between What Geographies in Europe? A Hungarian Perspective

Judit Timár

Centre for Regional Studies, Békéscsaba, Hungary, timarj{at}rkk.hu

In studying different understandings of the changing geography of Europe from the perspective of a ‘transition country’, namely Hungary, this paper seeks to expand on the following argument. During the 50-year period of state socialism, the study of geography in Hungary never approximated that in advanced capitalist Europe as closely as it does now. However, if such approximation is to be termed ‘convergence’, then it is, at best, ‘uneven convergence’. Three manifestations of the one-sidedness and or partiality of convergence are presented.

Key Words: applied geography • convergence • cultural turn • feminist geography
