What Can Liberals and Democrats Fight With? Finding a Winning Narrative in the High-stakes 2024 European Elections – international conference organised by the Hungarian Europe Society – Date: 5-6 April 2024 (Friday-Saturday) Venue: ibis Styles Budapest Center, 1074 Budapest, Rákóczi út 58. Conference photos Conference recordings   The Hungarian Europe Society - together with its partners, the 21 Research Center and the Republikon Institute - intends to continue its investigation on the future and renewal of liberal democracy globally and in Europe. Having in mind the ongoing turbulent changes in the international political arena as well as the forthcoming presidential race in the United States, this international conference focuses on the elections for the European Parliament in June 2024. From our perspective, political and civil actors and their supporters/electorate are mostly divided along the populist/illiberal/anti-European/anti-American versus liberal/democratic/pro-European/Atlanticist cleavage. This is especially the case in Hungary. Our objective is to discuss the necessary strategy/vision/narrative as well as the political communication methods and other political skills, including the organizational tasks, we all face in a hybrid political regime under Orbán and Orbánism. A definite regional aspect will be given to our approach in the light of recent political shifts in Slovakia and Poland. Here, again, the risks of the manoeuvres – and the nationalist-sovereigntist Sonderweg – of the Hungarian government will be analysed thoroughly. Especially because in a more and more hostile international environment, the capabilities of the European Union as a strong geo-political actor need to be reaffirmed and should not be undermined.   Program:   5 April 2024, Friday   13.30 – 14.00 Registration 14.00 – 14.15 Welcome Speech - Lars-André Richter (project director, Central Europe and the Baltic States, Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom, Prague) - István Hegedűs (chairman, Hungarian Europe Society, Budapest): Orbánism, Liberal Democracy, and the Future of Europe   14.15 – 15.15 Afternoon Session: Liberal versus Anti-liberal Values in Hungary and the Orbán-government’s Sovereigntist Policy  moderator: Erik Uszkiewicz (vice-chairperson, Hungarian Europe Society, Budapest) - Dániel Róna (director, 21 Research Center) and Kata Kiss (analyst, 21 Research Center, Budapest): Attitudes of the Hungarian Society towards Gender Roles - an International Comparison - Zoltán Ranschburg (senior analyst, Republikon Institute, Budapest): The Economic Dimension of a Populist Political Regime - István Szent-Iványi (senior fellow, János Kodolányi University; former Member of the European Parliament, Budapest): Hungary’s Options in a Turbulent Global Environment 15.15 – 15.45 Debate 15.45 – 16.15 Coffee Break 16.15 – 17.00 Evening Session: Polarisation, Protest, Populist Communication moderator: István Hegedűs (chairman, Hungarian Europe Society, Budapest): - Jacquelien van Stekelenburg (professor, Faculty of Social Sciences, Sociology, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam): The Move from Electoral to Protest Politics in the Netherlands and Beyond 17.00 – 17.30 Debate     6 April 2024, Saturday   9.30 – 10.00 Registration 10.00 – 11.30 Morning Session: From the Central European Stage to the International Political Arena: The Future of a Liberal World Order moderator: István Hegedűs (chairman, Hungarian Europe Society, Budapest): - Zora Jaurová (member, National Council of the Slovak Republic, Bratislava): Navigating Slovakia’s Political Trajectory: An Orbán-Inspired Route? - Jacek Kucharczyk (president of the executive board, Institute of Public Affairs, Warsaw): Lessons for Europe from the Polish Anti-populist Turn - Roland Freudenstein (founder, Brussels Freedom Hub; director, Brussels Office, Free Russia Foundation): Are the Bad Guys Winning? - The Challenge of Autocracy and the Global Solidarity of Democrats - Zsuzsanna Végh (program officer, The German Marshall Fund of the United States, Berlin; member, Hungarian Europe Society, Budapest): An Illiberal International on the Horizon? 11.30 – 12.00 Debate 12.00 – 12.15 Closing Remarks     The conference is supported by the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom.

The Future of Democracy: Strengthening Liberal Values, Institutions and Procedures at Global, European, Regional and National Levels – online conference of the Hungarian Europe Society – Date: 17 March 2022, Thursday   CONFERENCE RECORDINGS   The Hungarian Europe Society has previously organised webinars and conferences about major social and political problems which have recently emerged in our new, uncertain times. Most significantly, liberal democracy has been under attack worldwide in national and regional public arenas as well as through the increasing international geopolitical race between the democratic Western world and strengthening (semi)-authoritarian regimes. The beginning of the twenties of the 21st century has brought up new risks and threats to the surface: environmental emergency, an unknown pandemic, migration, growing economic inequalities, the contradictions of a post-truth era, ideological/cultural as well as social/geographic polarisation and fragmentation, extreme right-wing identity politics, and soon. We have two particular focuses which comprehensively incorporate the above mentioned themes. First, the Conference on the Future of Europe that was launched in May 2021 works with an open agenda and its settings let participants discuss all kinds of policy issues as well as legal and institutional renovations. Second, the Summit for Democracy, invented by the Biden administration, goes beyond transatlantic relations regarding its more ambitious, global scope in order to bring together democratic states for action worldwide. Both big exercises give civil groups, think tanks and citizens the chance to interfere and influence conceptual considerations and practical outputs before the end of the deliberations.   Program: 10.00 – 10.15 Participants Connect to Online Platform 10.15 – 10.30 Welcome Address István Hegedűs, Chairman, Hungarian Europe Society, Budapest Detmar Doering, Head of Prague Office of the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom, Prague 10.30 – 12.30 Morning session: The European Union: Fast Forward or a New Sclerosis?
