A Sketch of the Anglo-Saxon Roots of Constitutional Identity
A Sketch of the Anglo-Saxon Roots of Constitutional Identity

Summary/Abstract: Constitutional identity has become a focal point of Hungarian political and public discourse in recent years and is increasingly being discussed also in the European dialogue. More and more people are familiar with the meaning and value of the concept in Hungarian public law, but perhaps fewer are aware of the Anglo-Saxon roots of the concept of constitutional identity. My paper aims to summarize the latter (only sketchily, given that the subject matter of the paragraphs of this paper could fill books), providing a starting point for contemporary arguments and reasoning.
