In this episode of the Moral Imagination Podcast I speak with Hungarian Ambassador to the Holy See and the Sovereign Order of Malta, Ambassador Eduard Habsburg, about his book The Habsburg Way: Seven Rules for Turbulent Times. We discuss a number of themes including some history of the Habsburg Dynasty, the life and death of Blessed Charles of Austria, the last Austro-Hungarian emperor, including the remarkable tradition of the funeral for Habsburg emperors. We also discuss themes of marriage, children, religion, technology, liturgy, and especially the importance of family and tradition to provide rootedness in a time of individualism and “liquid modernity.” Other themes and topics include:
Different Visions of Subsidiarity — Catholic Social Teaching vs. European Union
Decentralization and localism vs. Devolution of power from a central state
Technocratic Politics
Alexis de Tocqueville on Individualism and Centralization
Robert Nisbet on the Quest for Community
Joseph Ratzinger — What it means to be a Christian
Liturgy as non-linguistic catechesis
The Human Person as Embodied and Embedded
and more
