It has to do with the innovative character of Orban's post-neoliberal rule, which involves not merely the erosion of democratic norms, but also the combining of certain elements of a neoliberal marketisation agenda with efforts to promote national capital at the expense of foreign corporations and the radical centralisation of state power.Get Podcast Transcript →powered by Listen411 - fast audio-to-text and summarizationDorit Geva joins PTO to talk about the recent re-election victory of Viktor Orbán in Hungary and Dorit's article, 'Orban’s Ordonationalism as Post-Neoliberal Hegemony' which is published in the journal Theory, Culture and Society.
