Liberalism And Radicalism In Hungary

This article gives an overview of liberalism and radicalism in Hungary. It is limited to liberal and radical parties with substantial support, mainly proved by having had a representation in parliament. The sign ⇒ means a reference to another party in that scheme. For inclusion in this scheme it isn't necessary so that parties labeled themselves as a liberal party.

Introduction

From the starting of liberalism in Hungary its program is combined with the strive for independence from of more autonomy inside Austria Hungary. The two currentis, Dekists and Kossuthists, differ in their attitude towards the Austrian rulers. Both currents are in the beginning of the 20th century conservative liberal or even conservative parties. In the interbellum liberalism is originally very succesfull with the Krolyi-ans, but after the communist revolution of 1919 and during the conservative regency, liberalism is limited to small city-based parties. After the 1988 end of communist rule, liberalism reconstitutes itself in the Alliance of Free Democrats (Szabad Demokratak Szvetsege, member LI), ELDR), a center market liberal party. Originally also the Young Democrats chose a liberal profile, but soon they developed into a national-conservative party.
