    Country Report 2018: Hungary
    (2018) Hartay, Eszter
    The Hungarian legislation ensures the right to everyone to establish and join organizations and communities based on freedom of association. The two traditional legal forms of nonprofit organizations are the association and the foundation. In addition to these, the CSO Law (Law CLXXV of 2011 on freedom of association, public benefit status and the operation and support of civil society organizations) recognizes an unincorporated legal form called ‘civil group’ (‘civil társaság’) that operates without legal personality. These three legal forms are considered ‘civil society organization’ as per the definition of the law.

    Transparency Vs. Delegitimization? Shrinking Space for Foreign-Funded Organizations in Democracies: Hungary and Israel
    (2018-12) Horvath, Kinga Zsofia; Herrold, Catherine; Badertscher, Kathi; Adelman, Carol
    The shrinking space for civil society and the increasing number of unfavorable legislation affecting the work of non-governmental organizations continue to be burning issues for global philanthropy. Using a case study approach, this thesis explores how democracies regulate the operation of foreign-funded non-governmental organizations in Hungary and Israel. This thesis examines what the presumed and real motivations of democratic governments are to adapt such regulations and how the political, economic and socio-cultural environments might influence their enactment. This thesis also compares the Hungarian and Israeli regulations to the 1938 Foreign Agents Registration Act.
