Orbanism

Orbanism or Orbánism is a far-right political ideology attributed to Viktor Orbán, the Prime Minister of Hungary. It is influenced by the concept of Christian democracy and also draws from Hungarian history. Advocates of Orbanism describe it as an example conservative and rightist success, claiming it as "true conservativism".

==Background== During the 2010 Hungarian election, vestiges of Orbanism emerged as Victor Orbán became increasingly challenged by the older liberal politicians, intellectuals, and the media elite who attempted to influence policymaking. There was also the SZDSZ's coalition with the post-communist MSZP, led by Gyula Horn. In response, Orbán eschewed liberalism in favor of conservatism. He then shifted to a more populist direction and sought to build an ideology that is based on Hungarian reality, identity, and history. He has avowed contempt for "corruption, sex, and violence". A core component of Orbanism is its embrace and defense of Christian democracy and values. Orbán, himself, called the ideology as a Christian project. He pursues it through his Fidesz political party.
