Military Judge Arthur Szilágy went so far he said that the military criminal law is the stepchild of the jurisprudence. It is a question of fact that only two comprehensive works were made about those days’ military criminal law until the early twentieth century, in 1888 from the pen of Military Judge Kálmán Pap – who tried to summarize the topic in a really detailed way, handed over his own practical experience – and the above mentioned thesis was published by Arthur Szilágy in 1896. However, if we look at the legal literature of the Belle Époque, we could see that a large amount of studies were published about each institutions of the evolving new legislations in parallel with the codification of the military formal law. The studies of Károly Edvi Illés, an excellent criminalist of the era, must be definitely emphasised; these reflected on each issues of the renewing legislations very well. Also Ödön Szentirmay, judge of the Curia, author of high quality studies, has proven to be productive; he examined certain institutions of the military criminal law in force and also undertook a historical outlook. Beside them László Mendelényi, Alfréd Dolenschall and Gyura Gerő also tried to introduce the military criminal law’s area with many publications. The work of Military Judge Jenő Apáthy in the time of the First World War is extremely outstanding. From his studies we can get to know the judgment for armies in field in Serbia occupied by the army of the Monarchy; he introduced the concept and the highlighted necessity of leading cases in the context of military judgment. His works from 1918, in which he collected the leading cases of the Supreme Honvéd2 Court are really significant and stopgap – it is still hard to find such things in the examined area. Seeing the specialty of the Hungarian forces came from the common army he also introduced the possible deviations from the leading cases of the Monarchy’s other high level military courts in this books. 2 Since there is no unified English name for the Hungarian term ’honvéd’, I will use the original Hungarian word, because it is important to preserve its core meaning; ’honvéd’ is a compound word created from the homeland (hon) and the defending (véd) parts (’defenders of the homeland’). The full name of the army is Magyar Királyi Honvédség; in English: Royal Hungarian Honvéd Army (the inverted word order is intentional; contemporary chronicles mainly used this phrase for the Hungarian part of the Common Army). 10 MILITARY JURISDICTION IN HUNGARY AT THE TIME OF THE DUALISM Emil Schultheisz, Ferenc Cziáky, László Jilly and Nándor Levente were also military criminalists must be highlighted from the following decades. Emil Schultheisz left his mark mainly in the area of military substantive law; besides, certainly, he examined procedural law issues in many of his studies. The “A katonai büntetőtörvénykönyv magyarázata [The Explanation of the Military Penal Code]” published in 1931 is a unique creation of the area. His book, the “A katonai büntetőtörvény zsebkönyve [Pocket Book of the Military Penal Code]” from 1943 is also significant. In addition to his activity as a publicist, it is remarkable that László Jilly participated in the editing of the defence justice column of the Magyar Katonai Közlöny for years. Just like in the case of Schultheisz, his annotations were also published for the military criminal code in 1933. His publication, “A katonai igazságszolgáltatás jelentősége és szükségessége békében és háborúban [The Significance and Necessity of the Military Jurisdiction in the Time of War and Peace]” can be considered as an epochal work. Ferenc Cziáky was the first, who started to investigate the military criminal law in a monumental, historical way; his book of 1924 remained a reference basis for researchers in this area until present day. Nándor Levente is one of the most prominent scientists with his award winning work about the jurisdiction of the armies in field. János Habony’s work published in 1977 from the period of the state socialism titled as “A katonai bíróság előtt [Before the Military Court]” can be highlighted because of its significance in the examined area, and we also have to mention his creation titled as “"Büntetőjogi ismeretek új kézikönyve – A fegyveres erők hivatásos állománya számára [New Pocket Book of Criminal Law Knowledge – For the Professionals of the Armed Forces]”. From this era, Zoltán Kovács’s work is also notable, whose book with the title of “A katonai büntetőjog kézikönyve [The Pocket Book of the Military Criminal Law]” printed in 1958 is also

  • The Framing of the First Hungarian Citizenship Law (Act 50 of 1879) and the Acquisition of Citizenship
    THE FRAMING OF THE FIRST HUNGARIAN CITIZENSHIP LAW (ACT 50 OF 1879) AND THE ACQUISITION OF CITIZENSHIP NORBERT VARGA University of Debrecen, Faculty of Political and Law Sciences, Debrecen Hungary In 1879, Hungarian legislators deemed it was time to settle the issue of citizenship once and for all. The moment was not chosen by mere accident, because the previous years had witnessed an upsurge of legislative acts striving to legally settle the ques- tion of who should belong to the states of Europe. The bill was discussed and opined by the Naturalization Committee of the Parliament. The most important problems were the naturalization and the absence. The first regulation of Hungarian citizen- ship according to the contemporary constitutional reforms and legal practice only took place in 1879. It is a major milestone in Hungarian citizenship law, since it also incorporated in its system the cases of acquisition and loss of citizenship. The law contains detailed provisions on how the legal relationship between the citizen and the state could be established and terminated. The objective of the law was to make the system of citizenship clear and transparent. Keywords: legal history, constitutional law, citizenship, naturalization, loss of citi- zenship, acquisition, multiple citizenship, Naturalization Committee, parliamentary debate, absence, marriage, national status, dual monarchy The antecedents of the first Hungarian citizenship law date back to the period of the Revolution and War of Independence of 1848. The bill submitted to the Par- liament of 1847/48 already contained the conditions for the acquisition and loss of citizenship.1 Due to the importance of the bourgeois transformation, however, the detailed debate of the proposal was subsequently taken off the agenda.

  • How Do Urban Forms Enable Political Projects? the Affordance of Nationalism And
    1 Nathan Gene Charlton How do urban forms enable political projects? The affordance of nationalism and nationhood during the modernisation of European cities. The London School of Economics and Political Science A thesis submitted to the European Institute of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, May 2018 2 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 74,419 words. 3 Abstract How do ideologies and cities shape each other? This work offers a theoretical strategy for explaining how urban forms and political projects have afforded each other's development historically, while avoiding a deterministic account of how political aims are realised in particular urban forms. To do this it focuses on the emergence of nationalism in the context of the modernisation of European cities in the nineteenth century and early twentieth century. As background, the development of the concept of citizenship in the context of the medieval city is explored and an understanding of the exceptional political space of the city in political philosophy is outlined.

  • A Brief History of the University of Szeged and Its Predecessors
    A brief history of the University of Szeged and its predecessors “The intellectual power of teachers creates the good reputation and blessed opera- tion of a university, not its silent walls.” (Áron Berde, November 10, 1872) The era of the Jesuit Academy in Cluj The beginning of higher education in Cluj, exiled to Szeged in 1921, dates back to 1581. István Báthory, Prince of Transylvania and King of Poland, on May 12, 1581 issued a foundation letter in Vilnius, taking measures to establish a Catholic university consisting of two faculties (Arts and Theology), within the framework of the Jesuit Collegium in Cluj which had been founded in 1579. The Jesuit Order sent 20 to 30 well-renowned excellent professors to Cluj (e.g. Jakub Wujek, István Szántó, Alphonso Carillo, Petrus Maiorius). The foundation letter of the Prince provided five villages and five larger ecclesiastical buildings (the Benedictine Abbey in Mănăştur, and the Fran- ciscan and Clarist monasteries in Cluj) in Kolozs county for the development of the institution. At the end of the 16th century the Academy in Cluj was the sole higher educational institution in the Carpathian basin In 1603, amidst the Long War (1591-1606) and religious upheavals, the Abby was demolished and two years later the Jesuit order was expelled from Tran- sylvania. In 1616, Prince Gábor Bethlen allowed, however, for the Jesuits to open a school in Mănăştur which was namely a middle school but there was a teacher (Gergely Vásárhelyi) who, having been teaching at the University founded by Báthory, ensured a certain personal continuity between the two institutions.

  • The Thesis of the Phd Dissertation
    The thesis of the PhD dissertation Dezső Csaba Dér The dawn of the 1st Hungarian Corps in 1848-49 (Organization in the period of the self-supporting corps) I. Aims The specialized literature on the topic of the Revolution and War of Independence of 1848-49, that introduces the military history, is remarkably wide , however it also shows some weak point in higher units, like history of the corps. The main purpose of the dissertation is to reveal the actions and the coherence of the corps – which is first of all based on the organization of the army, in the second place based on natural forces and the aptitude of the enemy –from December 1848 to February 1849 that happened behind the actions of war. The further aims of my work is to present an analysis based on the available sources, which can be definable in time and space and be the model of a self-supporting higher unit. I analysed four interconnected issues in my dissertation: 1. Why did the Pulszky-corps lost the battle of Budamér on the 11 th of December 1848? What information did the National Defence Committee have about the expected attack, and what actions were made by the local commissioners to defend the attack? What was the result of the organization of the corps before the battle? 2. On the 4th of January 1849 the newly arranged army was disastrously defeated, which could have had negatively effected the success of the resistance that was organized behind the defence line of River Tisza. I analyse what could have been the reasons that lead the ‘Northern Mobile Corps’ into such a rout, after this huge organizing.

  • Between Emancipation and Antisemitism: Jewish Presence in Parliamentary Politics in Hungary 1867–1884
    BETWEEN EMANCIPATION AND ANTISEMITISM: JEWISH PRESENCE IN PARLIAMENTARY POLITICS IN HUNGARY 1867–1884 Árpád Welker THE PERIOD UNDER STUDY The early 1880s were both difficult and extraordinary from the point of view of Hungarian Jewry. Political antisemitism had been present for half a decade, but it became violent and influential during these years, though only for these years. In other words, this was a time of crisis within the ‘Golden Era’ of the Hungarian Jewry, as some researchers of Hungarian Jews call the period of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy 1867–1918. [1] Besides antisemitism ‘normal’ political debate took place in parliament simultaneously, namely that related to the bill on Jewish–Christian marriages, which was also decisive from a Jewish point of view. The ‘antisemitic wave’ started with the attempts to establish a nation-wide movement, the Central Association of Non-Jewish Hungarians, following the example of Wilhelm Marr’s Antisemitenliga in Germany. [2] This period of virulent antisemitic activity culminated in the events related to the infamous Tiszaeszlár blood libel case, including a series of riots threatening the safety of Jews in numerous counties, and the foundation of the National Antisemitic Party in 1883. After the clear defeat of the antisemites in the elections of 1884, antisemitism practically became insignificant. [3] It took ten years until a political party incorporated antisemitism in its programme again, but the antisemitism of the Catholic People’s Party was ‘less virulent’, [4] and neither their only nor even their main goal. THE ‘DOUBLE PROGRAMME OF EMANCIPATION AND ASSIMILATION’ András Kovács in an article about the relationship between politics and Hungarian Jews argues that ‘independent Jewish politics has no tradition in the history of Hungarian Jewry’.
