The author considers which form of association of EU states the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe reflects. The word treaty means that one has to deal with the international treaty adopted by the will resulting from equality in law of all EU states. On the other hand the word constitution expresses that the entity established by the treaty has a character which in some respects resembles to that of a state. The EU bears some features of a state - namely citizenship and symbols, nevertheless it does not have its own sovereign power because this is derived from the sovereignty of member states. The EU institutions don't present a copy of classical division of power in the state and in this context one may say that the EU doesn't have its own mechanism of enforcement of legal obligations. In the text of the treaty we don't find an explicit statement that the EU becomes a composed state. Hereafter one has to deal with the international organization with several elements of supranationality whose existence is possible and whose functionning depends on its sovereign member states. Perhaps it seems as most correct to refer to the EU by a functionalist definition.

The study connected with the approaching anniversary of the conclusion of the Treaty of Trianon examines the instrumentalization of this event in part of Hungarian historiography. Biased arguments, the so-called national viewpoint, double standards for the same phenomena, absence of context, lack of perception of preceding developments, demonization of particular personalities and phenomena, uncritical argumentation from the 1910 nationality statistics, which used unreliable methods, accompany this instrumentalization. All this is only part of a rich repertoire. The study comments on the character of the most recent Trianon publications and generalizes about some common features of Hungarian historiography, especially the absence of self-reflection and problems with the analysis of their own historical failures, as well as the tendency of the main stream of Hungarian historiography to ignore these negative trends. They are tacitly accepted without comment or the necessary critical detachment, which gives the impression of agreement. There are more than enough similar negative phenomena in Slovakia, but here they evoke polemics and the majority of professional historians distance themselves from them. Only those, who can express their position and not be silent at home, have the right to look beyond the frontiers and express critical views of the situation in neighbouring countries.
