On May 29–30, 2025, the Central and Eastern European Chapter of the International Society of Public Law (ICON-S), in cooperation with the ELTE Law School, held its Annual Conference in Budapest under the title Individual Autonomy, Fundamental Rights, and Institutional Safeguards.
The event featured over 30 panels examining the legal and institutional dimensions of individual autonomy across Central and Eastern Europe.
Márton Csapodi, researcher at the MCC Center for Constitutional Politics, participated in the panel titled Institutional Safeguards for Fundamental Rights. In his presentation, titled Adjudication of Politics: The Hungarian Constitutional Court’s Approach to Politically Salient Constitutional Complaints, he analyzed the Court’s evolving role in managing politically contentious cases through the mechanism of constitutional complaint. His analysis shed light on the broader implications of judicial intervention in politically sensitive matters and the limits of constitutional adjudication in preserving rights.
The panel also featured contributions from scholars across the region, including Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Poland, offering a comparative perspective on institutional protections for fundamental rights in Central and Eastern Europe.
