“First of all, I would like to greet the readers of Hungarian Journal of Disability Studies & Special Education (Fogyatékosság és Társadalom). As the new Editor-in-Chief of this prestigious journal, I would like to thank the great work of the founding Editorsin-Chief, in particular Prof. György Könczei. He had a vision of this journal, the first scientific paper in Hungary which focused on the complex, inter- and multidisciplinary f ield of social sciences and disability studies. Prof. Könczei built a journal which is nationally and internationally recognized, and which is one of the leading journals of disability studies in Central and Eastern Europe. Not only a prestigious journal, but a scientific community has been built by Prof. Könczei, a community, which is linked by the Hungarian Journal of Disability Studies & Special Education.”
