Academic Freedom in Danger. Fact Files on the ‘CEU Affair’
Südosteuropa 65 (2017), no. 2, pp. 412-436 SPOTLIGHT BALÁZS TRENCSÉNYI, ALFRED J. RIEBER, CONSTANTIN IORDACHI, ADELA HÎNCU Academic Freedom in Danger. Fact Files on the ‘CEU Affair’ Abstract. In the beginning of April this year, the Hungarian Parliament passed two amend- ments to the existing educational law, which in their particular formulation targeted specif- ically the renowned Central European University in Budapest and sought to undermine the legal basis of its existence in Hungary. In four contributions leading academics and a PhD student of the History Department of the Central European University place the latest events in context, provide insights into the institutional set-up and the development of the History Department, and explain why this institution is special and worth fighting for. Balázs Trencsényi is Professor of History at the Central European University. Alfred J. Rieber is University Professor Emeritus, Central European University, and Professor Emeritus, University of Pennsylvania. Constantin Iordachi is Professor of History at the Central European University. Adela Hîncu is a PhD Candidate in History at the Central European University. The Political Context Balázs Trencsényi In the following short thematic block, the four authors of this ‘Spotlight on the CEU affair’ intend to provide context for the recent developments that sur- round the Central European University (CEU, www.ceu.edu). It is followed by an extensive—though not exhaustive—press review on the CEU affair in major international media.1 The situation escalated after 4 April 2017, when the Hungarian Parliament reduced the parliamentary debate to a three-hour plenary discussion and passed an amendment to the higher education act that undermines the continuing operation of CEU in the country—all without any previous consultation oth- 1 We would like to thank Adri Bruckner and Stefan Roch for compiling the press review, as well as Cody Inglis for linguistic editing. -
