Position of The People's Party Our Slovakia in the Party System in the Light of the Supreme Court of the Slovak Republic's Ruling Turning Down the Party's Dissolution
Original language description
The chapter deals with the judgment of the Supreme Court of the Slovak Republic on April 29, 2019, which rejected the motion filed by the Slovak Prosecutor General to dissolve the Kotlebists - the People's Party Our Slovakia (Kotlebovci - Ľudová strana Naše Slovensko, ĽSNS), and its impact on the ĽSNS position in the Slovak party system. ĽSNS has been characterized as a far-right, xenophobic, populist and nationalist party with neofascist features, praising the Slovak State (a Nazi puppet state existing in 1939-1945) and strongly opposing any migration. The court's judgement was praised by the ĽSNS representatives arguing that it officially approved the democratic character of the party. It also opened space for possible reconsideration of relations of some of the other parties in the Slovak party system. The chapter will analyze the position of ĽSNS in the party system after the court's judgement, and perceptions of other party system actors. The analysis is based on the data from official party documents, statements from party representatives, confrontations of positions on key issues as well as each party's self-defined challenges.
