Summary/Abstract: As international organisations tend to neglect the institutional quality of democracies almost completely, the Victor Orbán government in Hungary has been able to successfully argue that everything they do is perfectly legal. The reason Fidesz can use this argument is because of the outside world’s total ignorance of the unique and undemocratic nature of the Hungarian system of political institutions as a whole. What is more, it was not Fidesz that originally created this system in 2010 – 11; it dates back to 1989.
