kiutazók

Kiutazók, also known as "kiutazók" or "kiutazó" in Hungarian, refers to a phenomenon in Hungarian society where individuals, often young adults, travel extensively within Europe, primarily to avoid military service. This practice gained prominence in the early 2000s and has been a subject of debate and concern in Hungary.

The term "kiutazók" translates to "travelers" or "wanderers," and it is used to describe individuals who leave Hungary to evade military conscription. The practice is often associated with young men who travel to countries like Germany, Austria, and other European nations, where they can avoid military service by not residing in Hungary for an extended period.

The reasons behind this phenomenon are multifaceted. Some individuals may have legitimate concerns about their physical or mental fitness for military service, while others may simply wish to avoid the conscription process. However, the practice has also been criticized for its potential to undermine national security and the integrity of the military.

The Hungarian government has implemented various measures to address this issue, including stricter regulations on travel and residency requirements. However, the phenomenon continues to persist, highlighting the complex interplay between societal attitudes, legal frameworks, and individual motivations.
