Lunch Talk

We cordially invite you to join us for an online presentation of our study 

"IDENTITY, PARTISANSHIP, POLARIZATION: How democratically elected politicians get away with autocratizing Hungary"

This timely conjoint survey research, co-authored with Professor Milan Svolik of Yale University (author of the influential "Polarization versus Democracy"), provides critical insights into the complex factors driving Hungary's autocratization. The study explores a key question: who in Hungary prioritizes democracy when faced with the choice between democratic values and partisan loyalty, policy preferences, or ideology?

Date: October 30th

Time: 12 PM (CET)

Format: Online

Professor Svolik will provide a concise overview of the study's key findings, followed by a commentary from Márta Pardavi, co-chair of the Hungarian Helsinki Committee.

We look forward to your participation!
