Summary: | Hungary is on the road towards an illiberal state. On this journey, the Hungarian government, with the Parliament at its service, is reinterpreting the concept of fundamental rights. Under the slogan of effectiveness, new regulations are being adopted which secure more power, influence, rights, and tools for the state. This paper aims to present this trend from the perspective of education. I will present the most important new legal institutions, the chancellery, and consistory, as well as the constitutional right of the government to regulate by decree the operational and financial matters of HEIs, the central direction of schools, and the ministerial approval of pedagogical programs. |
