Not bipolar, but multipolar. While the West’s demographic weight is rapidly declining, so is that of its main opponent, China, and to such an extent that its aspirations to take over the role of global hegemon from the United States no longer seem feasible, and its economy may even slide into stagnation.’ Csaba Barnabás Horváth 28.08.2024 OPINION WHY IS HUNGARY TURNING TO CHINA? A CULTURAL THEORY ‘It seems to me that Orbán sees his people as having a greater chance of surviving the disintegration of the West by forming ties to China. He might be proven wrong by history. But make no mistake: the dilemma facing Viktor Orbán is a lot like that facing Grand Prince Géza: How to strengthen the position of the small Hungarian nation amid the struggle of powerful states and empires? Géza’s geopolitical decision to baptism his son as a Latin Christian set the course of Hungarian history for a millennium. The stakes may well be as high for Orbán today.’ Rod Dreher 27.08.2024 CURRENT HUNGARIAN AGRICULTURE MINISTER OPENS INTERNATIONAL NON-GMO SUMMIT IN OCTOBER by Joakim Scheffer 28.08.2024 POLITICS HUNGARY COULD PLAY KEY ROLE IN REPUBLIKA SRPSKA’S LITHIUM EXTRACTION by Joakim Scheffer 28.08.2024 CURRENT HUNGARIANS OVERWHELMINGLY BACK GOVERNMENT’S SMARTPHONE BAN IN SCHOOLS by Ádám Bráder 28.08.2024 CULTURE & SOCIETY CURRENT PARIS PARALYMPICS 2024 START TODAY by Márton Losonczi 28.08.2024 CULTURE & SOCIETY THE ELECTION THAT LED TO THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR: THE ELECTION OF 1860 by Márton Losonczi 27.08.2024 CURRENT POLITICS HUNGARIAN GOVERNMENT DENIES RUMOURS OF SINGLE-MEMBER CONSTITUENCIES ACROSS THE BORDER by Joakim Scheffer 27.08.2024 CURRENT POLITICS CHANCELLOR OLAF SCHOLZ VOWS TO CRACK DOWN ON ILLEGAL MIGRATION AFTER STABBINGS IN SOLINGEN by Márton Losonczi 27.08.2024 CURRENT HUNGARIAN AGRICULTURE MINISTER OPENS INTERNATIONAL NON-GMO SUMMIT IN OCTOBER Hungarian Minister of Agriculture István Nagy will open this year’s international non-GMO summit in Frankfurt.

Although the entity led by Milorad Dodik has not yet issued a tender for the extraction of the ‘white gold’, excellent diplomatic relations and statements from Hungarian and Bosnian Serbian leaders suggest that the project could potentially be undertaken in cooperation with Hungary. Joakim Scheffer 28.08.2024 CURRENT HUNGARIANS OVERWHELMINGLY BACK GOVERNMENT’S SMARTPHONE BAN IN SCHOOLS The government decree limiting mobile phone use in schools was issued in early August and will take effect in September.

Márton Losonczi 28.08.2024 CULTURE & SOCIETY THE ELECTION THAT LED TO THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR: THE ELECTION OF 1860 Abraham Lincoln was the first President ever elected from the Republican Party. He ran on a platform promising to prevent slavery from spreading within the Union. Therefore, his election directly led to the secession of 11 Southern states, which, in turn, led to the American Civil War. Márton Losonczi 27.08.2024 CURRENT POLITICS HUNGARIAN GOVERNMENT DENIES RUMOURS OF SINGLE-MEMBER CONSTITUENCIES ACROSS THE BORDER From time to time, the left-wing media circulate rumours that the Hungarian government is planning to create single-member constituencies in areas inhabited by Hungarians living beyond the border, such as Transylvania or Carpathia. This time, it was Péter Magyar, the leader of the opposition Tisza party, who initiated the spread of these false rumours, which the government has repeatedly denied. The left has consistently looked down upon Hungarians living beyond the borders, continually blaming them for their own political failures. Joakim Scheffer 27.08.2024 CURRENT POLITICS CHANCELLOR OLAF SCHOLZ VOWS TO CRACK DOWN ON ILLEGAL MIGRATION AFTER STABBINGS IN SOLINGEN A Syrian migrant due to be deported stabbed three people to death in Solingen, Germany last Friday. On Monday Chancellor Olaf Scholz of the left-wing SPD party visited the site of the tragedy, and vowed to crack down on illegal migration in the country.

As posted on Facebook by the GOP, on the night of 19 August alone, the word “Trump” was mentioned 147 times at the DNC meanwhile “inflation” three times, “crime” six times, and “border” only eight times.’ Botond Szabó 22.08.2024 OPINION THE LEGAL AND ETHICAL IMPLICATIONS OF LETHAL AUTONOMOUS WEAPONS SYSTEMS (LAWS) IN MODERN WARFARE ‘Stricter AI regulation is needed precisely because of the military use of the technology. Those opposing the legal regulation of artificial intelligence within the European Union have voiced reasonable arguments, such as the fact that overly strict regulations might harm trade within the European Union and can cause economic backlash. But restrictions connected to LAWS do not have such impacts, and their only purpose is to protect civilians and prevent the detrimental possible effects of unregulated attacks.’ Diána Dobos 18.08.2024 OPINION DANTE VS. EUROPE’S AGGRESSIVE DWARVES ‘Hungarians who are looking for a way through this civilizational crisis should turn for wisdom and inspiration to a medieval poet who also lived through a period of tumultuous change, and who found a way out of the ‘dark wood’ of confusion by rediscovering faith in God, and in the things of eternity. Dante was not a Magyar, but like Magyars, he was European—one of the greatest Europeans who ever lived. He speaks to us today, across a sea of time, soaring above the heads of the bustling crowd of aggressive dwarves, and what his booming voice says is: Return.’ Rod Dreher 16.08.2024 CULTURE AND SOCIETY VIEW ALL CULTURE & SOCIETY POLITICS THE GEOPOLITICS OF THE DEMOGRAPHIC SHIFT ‘The demographic shift also suggests a move towards an increasingly multipolar world order.

PHILOSOPHY VIEW ALL PHILOSOPHY POLITICS OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHRISTIAN REALISM TODAY ‘Christian realism is not unprincipled power politics or mere pragmatism, but the intelligent use of power and politics for the sake of representing Christian ideas and the common good (bonum commune), within the bounds of worldly political constraints.’ Gergely Szilvay 26.08.2024 CULTURE & SOCIETY PHILOSOPHY LIVING CONSERVATISM — VISITING ‘SCRUTOPIA’ ‘The programme took place in the idyllic settings of the Royal Agricultural University in the Cotswolds and Sundey Hill Farm, where Sir Roger lived and worked for three decades. The week’s agenda was filled with intellectually stimulating lectures, vibrant discussions, and culturally rich activities that provided insight into Sir Roger’s life and work as well as into broader conservative values.’ Benedek Tőczik 19.08.2024 PHILOSOPHY POLITICS EUROPE AT AN IDEOLOGICAL CROSSROADS: UNITY IN PROGRESSIVISM OR SOVEREIGNTY IN DIVERSITY? ‘Europe finds itself at a critical situation, faced with a fundamental choice between unity in progressivism or sovereignty in diversity…Central to this decision is the recognition of Europe’s intrinsic diversity, rooted in centuries of history, cultural exchange, and shared heritage. This diversity, inherently European, forms the essence of the continent’s identity and should be cherished and preserved. Importantly, efforts to import diversity from external sources often lead to fragmentation and discord, rather than enriching European society.’ Fanni Lajkó 11.08.2024 PHILOSOPHY TO FACE OUR MENTAL HEALTH IS TO FACE OUR DEMONS: A CASE FOR SUBJECTIVE ANXIETY ‘It might not be as explicitly visible as substance abuse, but below the surface, we are all struggling with our own imperfection and “sinfulness”. We all let our subjective anxiety overwhelm us and tempt us into a destructive state. Kierkegaard perfectly described how we fall for this anxiety: “Anxiety may be compared with dizziness. He whose eye happens to look down into the yawning abyss becomes dizzy.”’ Daniel de Liever 10.08.2024 INTERVIEW VIEW ALL DIASPORA INTERVIEW ‘WE NO LONGER HAVE ENOUGH MEMBERS IN OUR COMMUNITY TO DO THINGS SEPARATELY’ — A CONVERSATION WITH THE MEGYERI COUPLE FROM CHICAGO An in-depth interview with Erika and József Megyeri, former and current presidents of the Hungarian Communion of Friends, about their families’ emigration to the U.S., their involvement in the life of the local Hungarian community as teenagers, and how and why they decided to play a leading role in community building.
