A Decade of Political Visions — Orbán’s Tusványos Remarks over the Past Ten Years

The first Tusványos speech that became famous across the Western world was delivered a decade ago in 2014. In the international, and especially Western media, the speech became (in)famous for using the phrase ‘illiberal democracy’ for the first time. Talking about competitiveness in a globalizing world Orbán said: ‘We are trying to find the form of community organisation, the new Hungarian state, which is capable of making our community competitive in the great global race for decades to come.’

‘The liberal progressive vision that emerged in the late twentieth century bought into the notion of technological neutrality. In this context, it served a broader liberal purpose to neutralize politics as well. This reached its apogee in the EU and the preference for a law-governed, depoliticized, technocratic mode of governance.’

Christian Missions in the Carpathian Basin Before the Hungarian Conquest

The Frankish–Moravian struggles that shattered the tranquillity of Pannonia, even before the arrival of the Hungarians, caused irreparable damage to the settlement structure and ecclesiastical institutions of the region, which were thus left in a state of collapse when the Hungarian conquest came. As a result, it took a good century for the new missions, with the birth of the Christian Kingdom of Hungary, to bring the region back into the Church once and for all.
