Resumen
BOZOKI, András y HEGEDUS, Dániel. An externally constrained hybrid regime: Hungary in the European Union. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2017, n.55, pp.99-114. ISSN 1645-9199. https://doi.org/10.23906/ri2017.55a06.
The paper focuses on the unique, role model characteristics of the Hungarian hybrid regime, the Hungarian political system's new incarnation forged in the past years' democratic backsliding process. The paper argues that Hungary's European Union (EU) membership, the competencies of EU institutions and the scope of EU law, has played a crucial role in the development of the system's unique characteristics. Based on this argument, the paper qualifies Hungary as an “externally constrained hybrid regime”. However, the EU does not only fulfil system constraining functions regarding the Hungarian regime, but performs system support and system legitimation functions as well. At the end of the day the changing scope of these functions determined by the European integration's internal dynamics influences first and foremost the Hungarian power elite's strategic considerations about the country's future EU membership.
