Populism on Cosmopolitanism - Dictionary of Arguments
Krastev I 65 Cosmopolitanism/Populism/Krastev: PopulismVsCosmopolitanism: From the populist perspective, cosmopolitan distrust of ethnic bonds makes members of the vast ethnic majority in Hungary feel like foreigners in their own country. This is how universalism destroys solidarity. If everybody is your brother, then you are an only child. That is why Hungary’s reactionary nativists claim that no principled liberal can take a genuine interest in the fate of Hungarians living outside the country. Krastev: This is how all anti-liberals talk.
