On September 20, the Danube Institute and Helena History Press presented a collection of Gy\u00f6rgy Sch\u00f6pflin\u2019s (1939-2021) various writings entitled The Contested Europe. <\/em><\/strong>The book was published in cooperation of these two institutions, and launched on the premises of the L\u00f3nyay-Hatvany Villa in Buda Castle. Sch\u00f6pflin excelled both in academia and politics. He was a Jean Monnet Professor of Politics at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies at at the University College London and published extensively, especially on East and Central European aspects of nationhood, identity and political power. Between 2004 and 2019 he was member of the European Parliament representing FIDESZ.<\/p>\n

About 100 guests, including high ranking diplomats and well known scholars, attended the event that was introduced by Dr. Katalin K\u00e1d\u00e1r Lynn, head of Helena History Press. Prof. Ferenc Miszlivetz was one of the 6 laudators pointing out his close to 40-year-friendship with Sch\u00f6pflin who was the chairman of the Advisory Board iASK ever since it was founded in 2015. Together with the other speakers (P\u00e1l Cs\u00e1ky, former Slovak member of EU Parliament, former Deputy Prime Minister and head of the Hungarian Minority Party in Slovakia, Zsolt N\u00e9meth, chair of the Foreign Relations Committee of the Hungarian Parliament, Ferenc H\u00f6rcher, political philosopher, historian of political thought, Gyula Kodol\u00e1nyi, Kossuth Prize-winning writer, literary translator, university professor and John O\u2019Sullivan, writer, journalist, political advisor, President of the Danube Institute) he praised how successfully Sch\u00f6pflin integrated his complementary identities: he was a great.
