Conference: “Tradition, Constitution and European Integration”

23rd-24th September 2021, at the Institute for Legal Studies (Tóth Kálmán utca 4, 1097 Budapest) and online

The 27 Member States of the European Union have each their own Constitutions or Basic Laws. In top of that, the EU is governed by founding treaties. Thus, the national and the European legal orders are constantly intermingling and interacting, forming a complex legal system.

Because of their particularities (historic, geographic, political, linguistic, etc.), States (just as individuals) have their own identity, which is unique. The essential elements of this identity are protected in the Constitution of each State, the so called Constitutional Identity. The Court of Justice of the EU is responsible for harmonising and ensuring the effective enforcement of EU law in all the Member States (in compliance with the principle of supremacy) in accordance with the national constitutional traditions. At the same time, the EU is building its own community identity, inspired by its values which also prevail in each and every Member State.

What is Constitutional Identity? What is the relationship between EU law and the national constitutional traditions? What are the perspectives of the Member States and of the EU? What does the dialogue between CJEU and the national constitutional courts entail?

This conference, organised by the Institute for Legal Studies of the Centre for Social Sciences and the French Institute, and supported by the French and the Dutch Embassies in Hungary, aims at studying in depth the concept of Constitutional Identity and analysing the perspectives of the Member States and the EU.

It will bring together Hungarian, French, Dutch, German and Polish experts.

Simultaneous translation in French and English will be available.

The event is free of charge.

The programme is available here.
