Future of Schengen Is at Clear Risk Due to Illegal Migration

This week, Germany, the European Union’s largest economy and one of the founding members of the Schengen area, decided to reintroduce border controls along its entire land border in response to growing pressure caused by illegal migration.

‘Only culture can keep Hungary alive’ — Count Kuno Klebelsberg and the Development of Hungarian Public Education

‘Klebelsberg believed that “today it is not the sword but culture that can keep the Hungarian homeland alive and make it great again”, and he considered it important not only to educate the Hungarian elite but also to develop the education of the people.

The Knowledge Industry

‘It is rarely taken into account that forcing a general expansion of education also means levelling. And if something is extended in a general and obligatory way, then it will be quantitative rather than qualitative. If we imagine all of this in a school system that is universally compulsory for everyone, then according to today’s well-known hierarchization of knowledge, only knowledge that can be (easily) validated in the so-called ‘labour market’ will be truly appreciated.’

Why Did We Lose the Election? And What Now?

‘The party needs rebuilding. It needs a clear philosophy with policies that voters can see are capable of solving the country’s problems. And it needs a leader, and a leadership team, who can credibly represent conservatism and properly articulate it. We are a long way from that at the moment. But the Conservative Party is the great survivor.’
