Neolog Judaism
Neologs (Hungarian: neológ irányzat, ""Neolog Fraction"") are the segment of Hungarian Jewry which was more inclined toward integration during the Era of Emancipation in the 19th century. Religiously, the rabbis identified with them were influenced primarily by Zecharias Frankel's Positive-Historical School, from which Conservative Judaism evolved as well. Their rift with the Orthodox was institutionalized following the 1868-1869 Hungarian Jewish Congress, and they became a de facto separate current. The Neologs remained organizationally independent in the territories ceded under the terms of the 1920 Treaty of Trianon, and are still the largest grouping among Hungary's Jews today.
