Hungarian

Abel’s passion for European politics originates from his childhood when Hungary, among other countries emerging from state socialism, embarked on its steady march towards European integration. Having spent 4 years at Cornell University in New York and 2 years at the London School of Economics and Political Science in London, he appreciates what pluralist democracy embedded in a capitalist society can bring to its people. He is currently working on his PHD thesis in the European Institute of LSE.

"My European Dream is an “ever closer Union” based upon the values that bring the peoples of this vast continent together: pluralism, democracy, civil and political rights, freedom of speech, conscience, religion and lifestyle. A Union that is supported and cherished by all its constituent nations."
