The National Alliance of Hungarian Families (Hungarian: Magyar Családok Országos Szövetsége; MACSOSZ), is a non-governmental civil organization and a former political party in Hungary.

History

[edit]

The MACSOSZ was founded by entrepreneur József Urbán Szabó in Szigetszentmiklós initially as a civil organization, which transformed itself into a party for the 1994 parliamentary election.[1] Businesspeople László Wittman and Ádám Éliás also joined the party.[2] The MACSOSZ contested the election with five individual candidates who received 0.04% of the votes.[3] Following the failure Éliás quit the party to join the Social Coalition for Humanitarian Politics (TKEP). The MACSOSZ transformed itself into a civil organization again which still exists today. Urbán Szabó represented his movement in the Szigetszentmiklós local representative body from 1994 until 2006.[2]
