Államon

Államon is a term derived from Hungarian, meaning "on the state" or "state-owned." It typically refers to property, businesses, or resources that are under the ownership and control of the government or a public entity. This can encompass a wide range of assets, including land, infrastructure, natural resources, and even certain companies. The concept of államon is central to the idea of public ownership and management of key sectors of the economy or societal assets for the benefit of the public.

In practice, államon can manifest in various ways. State-owned enterprises, for instance, operate under this principle, with their profits and operations contributing to the state's revenue or public services. Similarly, land designated as államon might be used for public purposes such as parks, infrastructure development, or agricultural initiatives managed by state agencies. The extent and nature of államon can vary significantly between countries and over time, reflecting different political and economic ideologies regarding the role of the state in ownership and management. It signifies a departure from purely private ownership, emphasizing collective or public interest.
