In this paper, we argue that the main reason behind this overwhelming electoral success is the specific pattern of political integration that has evolved in recent years. The Hungarian case, as a consequence, may also act as a basis for a theoretical step forward in understanding the role of political integration in de-democratization processes. To understand the role of political integration, we explain how the Habermas-based political integration framework relates to the types of political culture, and then, with the help of representative data collection from 2018 and 2021, we define the integration groups and, using these, examine the party preferences and participation patterns that have developed in today’s Hungary. The Orbán regime successfully generates diffuse mass support: this is embedded in multiple social groups, although none of the integration groups can be considered the sole or primary supporters of the system.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2416-089X}, pages = {26-52}, orcid-numbers = {Gerő, Márton/0000-0003-4372-7464; Szabó, Andrea/0000-0002-7181-287X} } @inbook{MTMT:34715681, title = {The Hungarian Constitutional Court: Dialogue in practice}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34715681}, author = {Gyulai, Attila and Pócza, Kálmán and Dobos, Gábor}, booktitle = {Constitutional Review in Central and Eastern Europe}, doi = {10.4324/9781003399483-5}, unique-id = {34715681}, abstract = {This chapter focuses on the question of to what extent has the Hungarian Constitutional Court (HCC) constrained the room for manoeuvre of the legislature in politically salient issues in the period 1990–2020. After separating three different periods of the Hungarian Constitutional Court, it explores what kind of relationship could be discerned between the political activism of the court and the strength of its decisions. One of the main findings of our quantitative research is that political polarization of the court started well before the 2010 elections and that the first court led by László Sólyom constrained less the room for manoeuvre of the legislature in politically salient issues than previously supposed in the literature. We conclude that it was rather the third court after 2010 which actively interfered in the legislative process and constrained more heavily the legislature than any other court previously. While becoming increasingly severe in politically relevant cases, the Hungarian Constitutional Court has been transformed from a cohesive one to a more divided one – well before the court-packing and struggle with the government after the 2010 election.}, year = {2024}, pages = {114-141}, orcid-numbers = {Gyulai, Attila/0000-0003-2471-6049; Pócza, Kálmán/0000-0002-4853-017X; Dobos, Gábor/0000-0002-6810-1866} } @inbook{MTMT:34512507, title = {Teflonic social media behavior: why users refrain from participating in political discussions and why it matters?}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34512507}, author = {Bene, Márton and Tóth, Tamás and Manuel, Goyanes}, booktitle = {Research Handbook on Social Media and Society}, doi = {10.4337/9781800377059.00022}, unique-id = {34512507}, abstract = {Research on social media and politics suggests that many users are relatively passive politically and abstain from expressing their political opinion in these semi-public spheres. While many of these individuals are passive because they are simply not interested in politics, research shows that there are other deterring factors. The term ‘Teflonic social media behavior’ (TSMB) refers to users’ conscious abstention from political engagement on social media. In this chapter we first outline this concept and discuss its political relevance. Then, we discuss why social media platforms can be unsafe spaces for political interactions, and based on the literature we identify what social and political factors lie behind social media political passivity: people with larger and more homogeneous networks, heightened sensitivity to conflict, lower emotional intensity and strong motivation to maintain relationships.}, year = {2024}, pages = {148-160}, orcid-numbers = {Tóth, Tamás/0000-0002-5361-4300} } @article{MTMT:34408106, title = {Between anger and love: A multi-level study on the impact of policy issues on user reactions in national election campaigns on Facebook in Germany, Hungary, and Norway}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34408106}, author = {Tønnesen, Hedvig and Bene, Márton and Haßler, Jörg and Larsson, Anders Olof and Magin, Melanie and Skogerbø, Eli and Wurst, Anna-Katharina}, doi = {10.1177/14614448231208122}, journal-iso = {NEW MEDIA SOC}, journal = {NEW MEDIA & SOCIETY}, volume = {online first}, unique-id = {34408106}, issn = {1461-4448}, abstract = {Eliciting user reactions is an important tactic for political actors using social media like Facebook to seek attention for campaign messages on policy issues. Still, little is known about policy issues’ effect on user reactions and how structural factors play into this relationship. Applying a standardized manual content analysis on Facebook posts from political parties and their top candidates during the German, Hungarian, and Norwegian national election campaigns in 2021/2022 ( N = 4988), we investigate the relationship between policy issues and two of Facebook’s “emotional reactions” (“angry” and “love”). We find that posts addressing the economy, energy policy, and foreign policy drive more “angry” reactions, while environmental posts drive more “love” reactions. While effects are largely uniform across different party types, there are more variations between countries.

However, less attention has been paid to the way these populist messages appear through political actors’ Facebook communication, and what post- and page-level factors they are associated with. We investigate these questions in the context of the 2019 European Parliament election based on a unique cross-national dataset covering twelve European countries. In this study, we categorized 8,074 Facebook posts published on the main Facebook pages of sixty-seven parties. Our findings show that different populist appeals are used in specific ways. For example, at the post level, anti-elitism is frequently used in relation to economy, labor and social policy, and immigration; people-centric appeals are associated with labor and social policy and used when parties call for action, while out-group messages are not related to other topics beyond immigration. “Ideational populist” communication is more frequently articulated in European level and related to the topics of economy and labor and social policy. At the party level, it seems that there are still sharp differences between populist and non-populist parties in their communication.}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1940-1620}, pages = {1-22}, orcid-numbers = {Magin, Melanie/0000-0003-2545-3594; Haßler, Jörg/0000-0003-2907-5228; Russmann, Uta/0000-0002-8684-6976; Fenoll, Vicente/0000-0002-5851-4237} } @article{MTMT:34012148, title = {The touch of the leader: representation and responsiveness in plebiscitary leader democracy}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34012148}, author = {Illés, Gábor István and Körösényi, András}, doi = {10.1080/1600910X.2023.2220086}, journal-iso = {DISTINKTION}, journal = {DISTINKTION: SCANDINAVIAN JOURNAL OF SOCIAL THEORY}, unique-id = {34012148}, issn = {1600-910X}, year = {2024}, eissn = {2159-9149}, pages = {1-21}, orcid-numbers = {Illés, Gábor István/0000-0002-0414-7478; Körösényi, András/0000-0002-0631-9050} } @inbook{MTMT:34687692, title = {Állampárt-e a Fidesz?}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34687692}, author = {Mráz, Ágoston Sámuel}, booktitle = {Homo Politicus.
