Full Text | This paper addresses the question of how civil society engagement impact impacts on life satisfaction and quality of life in Hungary. It takes a broad approach to engagement, looking at membership, donations as well as neighborliness and obligations towards others. While the causal relationship between the two have not been studied in Hungary, the paper refers to several studies on the relationship between pre-time mortality (middle-aged man) and social capital indicators such as membership in associations. |
