- Abstract
In my study I would like to present the History of the Hungarian Social Security System's development from the beginning till nowadays. The Hungarian social care system is built up of social security and other social care institutions. The theoretical basis of social law is the approach that the main requirement of the individual's subsistence is the continuous reproduction of resources. The essence of social care is that in case of subsistence problems the existence of the individual should be ensured. In the era of subsistence problems goods necessary for everyday livelihood should be ensured from sources other than individual production activities. An important part of this is making proper reserves, which may help surviving such situations. In different historical periods reserve making was diverse, its management was different in different times, but the need to institutionalise this procedure only emerged in the new era, with the establishment and spread of the capitalist production method. The features of the Hungarian workers' and social security system may be well shown by the development of the related legal regulations. In Hungary the origins of the social security system operated by the state may be found in the last decades of the 19th century, and are based on German and Austrian example.
