My research focuses on the community-forming concept of ‘ethnicity’. Within the study of Hungarian minority communities beyond the border, I am engaged in ethno-geographical research focusing on the exploration and analysis of regional geographic spatial structures, primarily in the Hungarian-inhabited areas of southern Slovakia. The research methodology underlying the spatial structure analysis aims to capture the concept of “ethnic” communities, the development of assimilation processes and the spatial changes in language boundaries.

In my political geography research, I focus on the electoral geography of minority groups, with a particular focus on the development of the political representation of the Hungarian national minority in southern Slovakia. On the other hand, I seek to explore the political geography of state border changes, drawing on historical developments in South-Eastern Europe. In particular, I am focusing on the Czechoslovak-Hungarian aspects of the territorial arrangements that ended the First World War, and on the history of the ‘Danube border’. Within geopolitical studies, I am interested in the relations between the history of ‘classical’ geopolitics and the representatives of Hungarian political geography.
