A Külföldi Magyar Cserkészszövetség iratai

The unique resource value of the collection stems from the historical fact that the continuity of Hungarian scouting established in 1910 was in fact maintained by the émigré Hungarian scouting movement worldwide for more than four decades, from 1948 to 1989, in a period when it was prohibited in communist Hungary. According to Hungarian émigré scout leaders, the movement was intended to serve a two-front struggle of cultural resistance: on one hand against the official forgery of “the real” national heritage in communist Hungary; and on the other against the linguistic and cultural assimilation of Hungarian émigré youth within the multi-ethnic environment of some 20 countries of 4 continents worldwide.

该收藏的独特价值源于一个历史事实，即1910年成立的匈牙利童军运动的持续性实际上是由1948年至1989年间的全球匈牙利移民童军运动所维持，这一时期在共产主义匈牙利，童军运动被禁止。根据匈牙利移民童军领导者所述，该运动旨在服务于一场双线文化的抵抗斗争：一方面，抵抗共产主义匈牙利官方对‘真实’国家遗产的篡改；另一方面，抵抗匈牙利移民青年在全球四大洲约20个多民族国家环境中所面临的语言和文化同化压力。
