Hungarian Spectrum is a daily blog covering current political and social developments in Hungary. It was created in 2007 by historian Eva S. Balogh.[1]
History
Hungarian Spectrum has been published daily, seven days a week, since June 27, 2007,[2] and has been archived in the Library of Congress since 2013.[3] Balogh, who specialized in interwar Hungarian history,[4][5][6][7] researched and wrote most of the articles. Based on primary sources in Hungarian, German and English, the articles analyzed current developments in Hungary for the nonspecialist reader from a historian's perspective.[citation needed]
The blog also occasionally includes articles written by guest scholars such as Kim Lane Scheppele,[8] Johanna Laakso,[9] Charles Gati[10] and Randolph L. Braham.[11]
Hungarian Spectrum is supported by voluntary donations from its readers. Philanthropist George Soros, winner of the Ridenhour Prize for Courage in April 2019, donated his prize money to Hungarian Spectrum, describing it as a site that "renders an important service by exposing to the world what Prime Minister Orban is telling his own people."[12]
Balogh died on November 30, 2021. [13]
Political orientation
Eva S. Balogh often wrote entries highly critical of the current government in power in Hungary, led by Viktor Orbán. She was described by Ference Kumin as having had close ties with the opposition to the government[14]. Balogh was a regular guest on ATV television programmes[15][16] and published opinion pieces in Népszava,[17][18][19], a social-democratic newspaper. In November 2009, she gave a lecture for CIA officials at Langley, Virginia, where she characterized the imminent right-wing Fidesz victory in the 2010 Hungarian parliamentary election as a possible fascist breakthrough.[20][21][22]
