The first is to survey the most important institutions of the political and governmental systems and the cultural and behavioural characteristics of Hungarian politics. The second, is to provide the reader with a clear understanding of the two-way relationship between cultural-behavioural and constitutional-institutional levels of politics in Hungary. The book challenges many stereotypes of post-communist political literature and reveals why Hungarian politics does not fit into many of the generalizations and 'pigeon holes' of contemporary political science.ACLS Humanities E-Book.HungaryHistory20th centuryHungaryPolitics and government943.9Korosenyi Andras1004195MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818305303321Government and politics in Hungary2306427UNINA
