The Bundes-Verfassungsgesetz, or B-VG, serves as the core framework of rules that holds the Austrian state together. It is more than just a legal text; it is a complex web of regulations grown over decades that defines the limits of state intervention in personal life. Because constitutional law in the formal sense requires stricter conditions for creation and amendment, the B-VG acts as a stable anchor for society, distinguishing itself from ordinary laws.
January 1, 1995, marked a pivotal moment in the history of the Austrian Republic when the country joined the European Union. This EU accession fundamentally changed the Austrian Constitution in its entirety, launching the nation into a new legal era. This transition altered the overall legal landscape, making it essential for legal professionals and citizens to understand how constitutional principles now function within this broader European context.
The Verfassungsgerichtshof, or VfGH, serves as the guardian of the Republic's legal engine by actively defending fundamental rights. Rather than these rights existing only on paper, the VfGH ensures they are enforced and respected by the state. By overseeing the boundary between government authority and individual freedom, the court ensures that the constitutional rules governing politicians also serve to protect the personal lives of all citizens in Austria.
