The article includes a comprehensive and accurate picture of the development and hardships of the Science of Legal History from the second half of the 20th century. It is impossible to give a systematic representation of the science of legal history in Hungary; the author’s aim is use snapshots of different problems in order to give a feeling for the changes legal history went through due to the political events of the 20th century. To sum up, it can be said that publication opportunities were affected by both subjective and objective factors in Hungary. It is a happy fact that the number of researchers in the field of legal history constantly increased. The structure of university education and the changes in international relations also affected the transformation of possibilities for publication. After the era of Socialism, the publication of research results in the field of Hungarian law, more specifically, the field of legal history, changed significantly. One must not forget that with the broadening of international relations, further options became available for foreign colleagues to become familiar with the works of Hungarian legal historians.
