This documentary was produced in order to discuss how history has factored into Orban's rhetoric, and how it has aided him in building up beneficial narratives that have made him ever more popular among the nation's people. ——————————————————————————————————————————
Viktor Orban is seen by many as a strongman, a would-be dictator who has slowly but surely eroded the aspects of democratic freedoms in his country. His isolationist and rejectionist policies have been criticised by a myriad of foreign observers, and his position as an opportunist without many moral qualms has allowed him to gradually accrue a tremendous power base, to such an extent that his party, in large part, wrote the country’s constitution. How has he managed this feat? How has he rallied the people so effectively to become one of the most successful populist leaders in Europe? Well it may well start with a bit of history.——————————————————————————————————————————
