Essay from the year 2021 in the subject Cultural Studies – GLBT / LGBTIQ, grade: 1, 7, National University of Public Service (LUDOVIKA, Budapest, Hungary), language: English, abstract: This essay examines the Visegrad countries policies towards LGBTQ+ people. The Visegrad countries are Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia, together they found the Visegrad group alliance (V4) in 1991. Those eastern and central European countries joined their forces in order to push forward their aspirations for an EU accession. The collaboration turned out to be successful as all four Visegrad group countries joined the European Union, however only Slovakia joined the eurozone.
In general, the countries realized that a cooperation is useful to represent their common interests because they are connected by “their traditional, historically shaped system of mutual contacts, cultural and spiritual heritage and common roots of religious traditions”. The Visegrad group is referred to as ‘two plus two” due to their different approaches towards the European Union and its integration policies. Whereas, Slovakia and the Czech Republic are commonly Europe-friendly, Hungary and Poland tend to be more sceptic when it comes to vertical integration.
