Description A journalist's personal account of why one small European nation's path away from liberal democracy carries vital lessons for us all

Publisher Description

From Europe to America, political landscapes have shifted in recent years in a way summed up in microcosm no better than by the trajectory of one small country, Hungary--whose leader, Viktor Orban, has gained outsized international notoriety as the bad boy of the European Union for his steadfast alternative to the liberal democracy that has dominated the Western world since 1989.Orbanland is the fascinating story of a Danish journalist who moves to Hungary to gain an insight into the political complexities of this divisive European country. Along the way, he encounters people from all walks of life, and he learns as much about the Hungarians as about himself. In a narrative as absorbing and as it is vital for the lessons it carries as America prepares for its 2020 presidential elections, he asks:Can we get along with those on the other side of the fence? Is it worth even trying? His answers are surprising.By guiding us through a polarized landscape of differing opinions, Lasse Skytt delivers a broader perspective on Viktor Orban's Hungary, one that suggests possibilities for the future of Europe and America. His journey will leave us questioning our own truths, and, ultimately, which side we are on.
