ABSTRACT

In recent years, Hungary has attracted international attention due to the country’s backslide into an “illiberal” model of democracy under the leadership of Prime Minister Orbán. Orbán’s right-wing party, Fidesz-Hungarian Civic Alliance, won the parliamentary elections in 2010 with 52% of the votes, but because of the electoral system, it got more than two-thirds of the seats in parliament. This majority has allowed Fidesz to rewrite and to recurrently modify the constitution in the name of “the people.”
