Abstract
The study presents a joint research project by five authors: László Tamás, András Máté-Tóth, Miklós Gyorgyovich, Bernadett Balassa, and Dávid Kollár. It offers the first international comparative empirical application of the theory of Wounded Collective Identity (WCI), developed by the second author, Professor András Máté-Tóth, based on data from thirty-eight European countries. The theoretical framework of the study is grounded in Máté-Tóth’s theory of wounded identity, which conceptualizes the geo-cultural and geopolitical in-between position of the Central and Eastern European region as a decisive factor shaping collective self-interpretation.
