The project ‘(Dis)continuity of Legal Systems in Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland after WWII: Difficult Heritage’ – was carried out from 2024 to 2025 under the International Visegrad Fund by a consortium of four universities. The project was led by Jagiellonian University in Krakow (PI: Dr. Hab. Maciej Mikuła, JU Prof.) in collaboration with partners: University of Trnava (PI: Prof. JUDr. PhDr. Tomáš Gábriš, PhD., LL.M., MA), University of Szeged (PI: Prof. Dr. Norbert Varga, PhD, habil.) and University of West Bohemia in Pilsen (PI: doc. JUDr. Vilém Knoll, Ph.D.). The aim of the project was to integrate the V4 academic community around the issue of the legal heritage of the socialist period and to popularise joint research on this topic.
As a part of the project, the international research team made a comparison of the degree of Sovietisation of the legal systems of Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland after 1945. Utilising the work of the international research team allowed the phenomenon of the law of the socialist period to be placed in the context of the ‘common’ heritage of the legal culture of the Visegrad countries.
In the dissemination of knowledge about the legal culture and identity of the V4 countries, the action of publishing a post-conference monograph was invaluable, as was the translation into English of selected legal regualtions from the socialistic period of Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and Poland and ensuring access to them in the database 'IURA. Sources of Law from the Past':
