Politics in Hungary and Eastern Europe

Is Hungary becoming a dictatorship? How is Eastern Europe evolving?

How did Viktor Orbán, Hungary's leader, come to power? Is he popular and loved?

Alex Kuli is a "recovering journalist" in Hungary. 

We went to Amherst College together. He's been living in Hungary for a few decades, reporting on the state of affairs.

I quoted him extensively in The Hidden Europe. 

With the 10th anniversary coming up and the 100th anniversary of the Treaty of Trianon, we talked for one hour about how things are going in Eastern Europe, especially in Hungary.

If you want to know more about Hungary, especially its political situation, you must listen to this podcast. 

What makes it interesting is that he puts Hungary in context with the rest of Eastern Europe.
