  3. Can freedom of the individual and the Catholic Church coexist? With Csaba Török (priest and theologian)

    Can freedom of the individual and the Catholic Church coexist? With Csaba Török (priest and theologian)

    In this podcast, we talk to Csaba Török, who is a Hungarian Catholic priest, a senior parish priest of the Esztèrgom Cathedral, a theologian and a university professor. But behind the many titles, Csaba Török is first and foremost a progressive thinker of our days. He is a man in whom respect for tradition and the need to transcend oneself are both present. In this episode, more than other times, we will touch on several concepts, but the main curiosity we had was: how can a free spirit like him live freely as a member of a seemingly rigid Catholic Church? And what does freedom mean from a biblical perspective?

    Freeing a generation and Hungary from apathy. With Lili Mihalics (Students for Teachers)

    What do today's younger generations living in Hungary think about freedom? How much do they value it, how much are they willing to do for it, and what does it mean to them? Lili Mihalics is eighteen years old and has just started her last year of secondary school at the prestigious Szent István Gymnasium in Budapest. This spring, together with several fellow students, she established “Students for Teachers”, a student organisation calling for a solution to the teacher shortage the country is experiencing right now, a teachable and learnable curriculum and better school environments and more attention to education. Students for Teachers organised their first demonstration in March 2022, with great success. In this interview, Lili Mihalics shares her views on matters related to freedom and solidarity in Hungary, today.

  5. What does it take to defend educational freedom? With László Miklósi, Association of History Teachers

    What does it take to defend educational freedom? With László Miklósi, Association of History Teachers

    The level of freedom of a society can be measured quite solidly by the attitude of institutions towards education. And, more specifically, towards the teaching of history. “History is written by victors”, or “history is a fable agreed upon”: these are just a couple of quotes - allegedly from Winston Churchil and Napoleon -, which show how sensitive this topic is. Indeed, political regimes want, from time to time, rewrite history. László Miklósi has been teaching history to primary school pupils in Hungary for nearly forty years. He started his career in 1985. At that time, politics dictated what should be said about certain historical events. Teachers and education were not free at all. Students would learn something about history, only if teachers dared to do their job properly. In this interview, we tell the story of László Miklósi, and ask him about what it took to defend education freedom back in the days, as well as what it means today.
