Our objective is to provide English speaking readers interested in Hungary with a well balanced view of political activities in Hungary by featuring contents from various printed and online sources together with our own commentaries. We are convinced that Hungary is built on all sorts of different ideas, thoughts and opinions and, despite of the new Media Law, our aim is to provide an alternative and reliable source of information – contrary to the one-sided press of the government – for those who want to hear the voice of a free Hungary.

Gyurcsány-blog: Being a co-author in a Nobel Prize winner’s book

Viktoria Dalko a professor in Harvard, and living in the US for many years contacted me maybe two years ago asking me to participate as a co-author in a book to be written about the reasons, effects, the lessons to be concluded from the financial crisis which started in 2008. After some hesitation I accepted the request.
The book is already in the market, it can be ordered on the Internet. The publisher – John Wiley & Sons, one of the most well known American publishing companies is predicting the edition by mid-June. Regulating competition in stock markets – is the title of the book. It gives me a moderate pride to have worked amongst others with Lawrence R. Klein, a Nobel Prize winner who is a co-editor of the book as well. The 92-year-old Klein was awarded the prize in 1980 for the creation of econometric models and their application to the analysis of economic fluctuations and economic policies.
