World Policy On Air: Michael Jordan
Policy on Air podcast Policy on Air podcast Michael Jordan, a journalist based in Central Europe and author of “The Roots of Hate,” published in the World Policy Journal’s Fall 2010 edition, believes that the ruling Fidesz party, the overwhelming winners in Sunday’s nationwide municipal elections, must now make good on their promises for prosperity and jobs if they are to cement their center-right hold on their nation. At the same time, they must also reconcile Hungarian distrust of the Roma with obligations to the European Union.
