It unfolds the major traits of the Orb疣 regime and argues that it provides a paradigmatic case of the Weberian model of plebiscitary leader democracy (PLD). Beyond explaining the backslide of liberal democracy in Hungary, the book aims at two additional contributions of wider significance. First, by applying the concept of PLD to the Hungarian case, it reveals that the authoritarian elements are products of an endogenous\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003edrive of modern mass democracy. Second, through the glass of PLD, the Orb疣 regime can be seen as an experimental lab of global trends like mediatisation and personalisation of politics, populist style, the deconsolidation of liberal democratic order, and what is often labelled as \"post-truth politics\". \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of key interest both to scholars and students of Hungary, Post-communist and Central and East European politics and to those interested in populism, democratisation and democratic deconsolidation as a broader trend in a variety of countries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andr疽 K駭yi, G畸or Ill駸, Attila Gyulai\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 103247453X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032474533\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/21\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Andr疽 K駭yi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44302028374271,"sku":"9781032474533","price":51.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7c85a5f5-d0d3-4fdf-8569-9f0f0f93f903.jpg?v=1695159106","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-orb-n-regime-andr-s-krsnyi-9781032474533","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
