ABSTRACT This article argues that Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has established a monarch-like celebrity status and exploited it to systematically dismantle the checks and balances of democratic polity. Drawing on nationalist mythology, local traditions of personality cult, and media techniques to personalise the politics, Orbán has fashioned himself as Hungary’s crownless king. In the absence of effective political contestation, a significant pocket of resistance has been politicised art and popular culture: a culture that this article maps out and interrogates.

“但是他什么都没有！” 针对匈牙利名人政治家ViktorOrbán的地下视频

摘要本文认为匈牙利总理维克多·奥尔班（ViktorOrbán）建立了君主般的名人身份，并利用它来系统地消除民主政体的制衡。凭借民族主义神话，当地人格崇拜传统和媒体技术来使政治个性化，奥尔班已将自己塑造成匈牙利的无冕之王。在缺乏有效的政治竞争的情况下，艺术和大众文化已被政治化了很大的阻力：本文所描绘和审讯的文化。
