两篇深入的文章和精选的二十七个最重要的判决表明匈牙利宪法法院是后共产主义国家民主转型中最重要的参与者之一。在一个刚刚摆脱四十年共产党统治的国家，一个成立于1990年的新法院如何能够以与美国最高法院相媲美的方式执行宪法、维护法治和保护公民自由？这个新法院就建立民主和市场经济、私有化、财产国有化补偿和追溯性刑事立法等主题以及死刑、堕胎、言论和媒体自由以及三权分立等问题做出了裁决。最高法院法官斯蒂芬·布雷耶 (Stephen Breyer) 提供了前言，并介绍了本书开头的两篇文章。在第一篇文章中，乔治·布伦纳 (Georg Brunner) 解释了法院的设立方式及其程序。在第二部分中，拉兹洛·索利姆（Lazslo Solyom）系统地描述了法院判例法的出现及其关于宪法权利以及政府其他部门的权力和程序的判例。概述了法院遵循的模式，并探讨了其对全球宪政的贡献。Lazszlo Solyom 是匈牙利宪法法院院长和布达佩斯 ELTE 大学法学教授。格奥尔格·布伦纳 (Georg Brunner) 是德国科隆大学法学教授。”
Two in-depth essays and a selection of twenty-seven of the most important decisions present the Hungarian Constitutional Court as one of the most important actors of the transition into democracy in a post-communist country.How was it possible that a new Court established in 1990, in a country just released from forty years of Communist rule, was able to enforce a Constitution, maintain the rule of law, and protect the freedom of its citizens in a way comparable to the U.S. Supreme Court? This new Court has issued decisions on topics ranging from the establishment of democracy and a market economy--privatization, compensation for the nationalization of property, and retroactive criminal legislation--as well as such issues as the constitutionality of capital punishment, abortion, freedom of speech and the media, and the separation of powers.U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer provides the foreword and introduces the two essays that begin the book. In the first essay, Georg Brunner explains how the Court was set up and what its procedures are. In the second, Lazszlo Solyom describes systematically the emergence of the case-law of the Court and its jurisprudence on constitutional rights and on the powers and procedures of the other branches of government. The models followed by the Court are outlined, and its contribution to global constitutionalism explored.Lazszlo Solyom is President of the Constitutional Court of Hungary and Professor of Law, ELTE University of Budapest. Georg Brunner is Professor of Law, University of Cologne, Germany."
