Polish Constitutionalism and the Constitutional Judiciary in Poland

Summary/Abstract: I have very pleasant associations with the capital of Hungary. Not only because the city – as you well know – is beautiful, but also because it is close to me. I was born in Przemysl, a small town in the southeast corner of Poland. During the First World War the town was a fortress which protected Austria–Hungary against Russia. In the first and second siege of the fortress many Hungarians died. The Memorial to the Defenders of the Fortress of Przemysl – situated at Gyóni Géza Square, near Margaret Bridge, on the right side of the Danube, in Buda – commemorates those tragic events. The Memorial also reminds us that Poland and Poles have much in common with Hungary and Hungarians, that a large part of Polish history is at the same time Hungarian history. That there are so many places which are important for both Poles and Hungarians.
