Átneveldése

Átneveldése is a Hungarian term that translates to "re-education" or "re-cultivation." It refers to a process of changing a person's beliefs, attitudes, or behaviors, often through intensive instruction and psychological manipulation. Historically, the term has been associated with political and ideological indoctrination, particularly in totalitarian regimes.

The concept of átneveldése often involves separating individuals from their existing social networks and exposing them to a controlled environment where a new ideology or set of values is systematically promoted. This can include lectures, group discussions, and self-criticism sessions. The aim is to dismantle existing perspectives and instill a new way of thinking that aligns with the goals of the re-educating authority.

While often linked to state-sponsored programs, átneveldése can also be understood in broader social contexts, such as within certain religious or ideological groups seeking to convert or reform members. The effectiveness and ethical implications of such processes are widely debated. Critics often point to the coercive nature and potential for psychological harm associated with forced re-education. Proponents, however, may argue for its necessity in achieving social cohesion or correcting perceived harmful ideologies.
