An Analysis of the Intrinsic Nature of Fidesz, its Role in Shaping the Lives of Hungarians and the Rise of the Tisza Party

-
Kép
To begin with, Hungarian politics has become very convoluted in 2024, especially in the last couple of months. Should we want to understand the basic intricacies of the current government and system, we need to put it into context. This essay will mainly delve into the intrinsic nature of the incumbent party, its role in shaping the lives of Hungarians and the emergence of the Tisza Party as a viable alternative in the realm of politics. Photograph: János Kummer / Getty Images Context: It was not until the pardon scandal back in February that it became more apparent than ever before that Fidesz is no longer capable of governing Hungary.

Kép
As students in higher education advance in their studies over the course of their university years, it becomes more and more crucial that they develop an authorial identity. However, in Hungarian tertiary education students are urged by their tutors they adopt an impersonal style in their written essays. Struggling to meet institutional standards, they cannot construct their own writerly identities.
