House of Orbán: enquête sur le néo-royalisme financier en Hongrie

</h5>
<p class="card-text line-clamp-3">Sous le règne de Viktor Orbán, le pouvoir a quitté l’État.  Il s’organise désormais en coulisse, autour d’un dispositif fait de loyautés, d’actifs et d’institutions captives.  En s’appuyant sur le paradigme théorique du néo-royalisme, la chercheuse Palma Polyak montre comment le clan Orbán a construit sa résilience politique — et financière.</p>
