On the Irish Referendum |
|
|
|
The Hungarian Europe Society’s Declaration on the Irish Referendum* With relief and happiness we accept the convincing victory of the “Yes” votes in the Irish referendum. We have always supported the Lisbon Treaty: coming into force, it will make the decision-making process more transparent and the European political life more personalised. That is why we urge the Polish and the Czech Presidents that they sign the ratification instruments as soon as possible and ensure the workings of the European institutions – now in accordance with the new treaty. It would be frustrating if twenty years after the regime-changes in Central and Eastern Europe, politicians from our region would obstacle further European unity. We need strong and enterprising European institutions! We expect that the member states nominate politically outstanding and skilled candidates to the renewing European Commission. In the coming years, the European Uunion should play an initiating and decisive role in many policy areas as well as in the arena of international politics. Budapest, 3-6 October 2009 * The declaration does not necessarily reflect the views of all HES members. Forty members voted in favour, one person voted against the statement. |

Visa Workshop |
|
|
The Hungarian Europe Society organised a workshop together with the Stefan Batory Foundation, Warsaw, the Association for International Affairs, Prague and the Research Center of the Slovak Foreign Policy Association, Bratislava entitled "V4 and Eastern Neighbours: Schengen and Its Impact on Mutual Co-operation" on 10 June 2009 at the "Aranytíz" Cultural Centre in Budapest. The aim of the workshop was to present the results of the research project “Monitoring and Analysis of the Visa Policies of the Visegrad Countries“. The project analysed the relations of the V4 with their eastern neighbours and other non-EU countries regarding visa issuing policies.
The workshop focused on the dilemma how the needs for both security and justice inside the Schengen area effect the rights and opportunities of third country citizens to enter the territory of the European Union. |

European Elections 2009 - Europeanization: Parties, Institutions, Member States |
|
|
|
The Hungarian Europe Society held an international workshop on 22-23 May 2009 (Friday afternoon and Saturday) in the Gobelin Hall of the Hungarian Parliament. 2009 is a year of historical importance for Hungary and Europe. It marks the next European elections; the fifth anniversary of many post-communist states’ accession to the European Union and the “Big Bang” enlargement of the „old” European Union; as well as the twentieth anniversary of the crucial year of political transition to democracy in Central Europe. The workshop aimed to reflect upon the adjustment of the political elites, the citizens and the institutions to the historical and political changes of the past two decades in both the former EU-15 and the recently joined member states, whilst focusing on the process of Europeanization inside the whole European Union. The analysis of the upcoming European Parliament elections as well as the search for the development of the European political sphere also expressed the all-European approach of the event.
