Abstract

In 2021, a research group consisting of researchers from six Central and Eastern European countries was formed to explore the methods of constitutional interpretation and constitutional reasoning applied in these countries in the framework of an empirical comparative legal research. The research also required to establish a methodological classification, which provided a good opportunity to attempt to classify the methods by which constitutional interpretation and constitutional reasoning can be realized at all. In the second stage, based on a uniform research methodology, we assessed which of these methods occur in the examined legal systems and in what proportion, and how often they appear in the decisions of the respective constitutional courts. On the one hand, the present study undertakes to elaborate these methods and to present the peculiarities of constitutional reasoning, including constitutional interpretation, compared to the general methods of statutory interpretation and legal reasoning. On the other hand, it reviews, on a legal sociological basis, to what extent these methods actually appear in the practice of the Hungarian Constitutional Court and the other Central and Eastern European constitutional courts.
