Leading specialists analyze the manifestations of the current political, regime in Hungary from twenty-five angles. Topics discussed include the ideology, constitutional issues, social policy, the judiciary, foreign relations, nationalism, media, memory politics, corruption, civil society, education, culture and so on. Beyond the basic features of the economy, the domains of taxation, banking system, energy policies, and the agriculture are treated in dedicated studies. The essays are based on detailed empirical investigation about conditions in today's Hungary. They nevertheless contribute to the exploration of the characteristic features of post-communist authoritarian regimes, shared by an increasing number of countries in Europe and Central Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Central European University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47022194426096,"sku":"9786155513626","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9786155513626_p0.jpg?v=1763720892","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9786155513626","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
