FES has published "Trade unions in Hungary 2012:New hope in a year of woes?". The document assesses the state of social dialogue and labour relations in Hungary. It provides comprehensive information about political, economic and social framework conditions of the social dialogue and also tries to extrapolate the future developments in these areas. As a study implemented by the Budapest Office of FES and conducted by Rainer Girndt it was integrated into the FES-Series of Annual Reviews.
