Conclusions. 330 $aThis book explores the political economy of Hungary from the mid-1970s to the present. Widely considered a ?poster boy? of neoliberal transformation in post-communist Eastern Europe until the mid-2000s, Hungary has in recent years developed into a model ?illiberal? regime. Constitutional checks-and-balances are non-functioning; the independent media, trade unions, and civil society groups are constantly attacked by the authorities; there is widespread intolerance against minorities and refugees; and the governing FIDESZ party, led by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, controls all public institutions and increasingly large parts of the country?s economy. To make sense of the politico-economical roller coaster that Hungary has experienced in the last four decades, Fabry employs a Marxian political economy approach, emphasising competitive accumulation, class struggle (both between capital and labour, as well as different ?fractions of capital?), and uneven and combined development. The author analyses the neoliberal transformation of the Hungarian political economy and argues that the drift to authoritarianism under the Orbán regime cannot be explained as a case of Hungarian exceptionalism, but rather represents an outcome of the inherent contradictions of the variety of neoliberalism that emerged in Hungary after 1989. 606 $aEconomics 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aEuropean Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911130 606 $aGovernance and Government$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911220 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 607 $aEurope$xPolitics and government 615 0$aEconomics. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 14$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aEuropean Politics. 615 24$aGovernance and Government. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 676 $a306.2 676 $a320.9439 700 $aFabry$b Adam$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01065642 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910338020003321 996 $aThe Political Economy of Hungary$92547368 997 $aUNINA
