Surviving Turbulent Times, with Eduard Habsburg
Episode 41, Mar 16, 2023, 05:10 PM
Dr Gavin Ashenden this week talks to Eduard Habsburg, Hungary’s Ambassador to the Holy See, a member of the former ruling family of Austria-Hungary and a man still known today by his traditional title of Archduke Eduard of Austria.
They talk about the remarkable family which ruled over the Holy Roman Empire, shaping European politics for 800 years; about contemporary European politics, and perhaps most currently, about the archduke’s new book, The Habsburg Way: Seven Rules for Turbulent Times. Such principles include getting married, being Catholic, being brave in battle, standing for law and justice, and dying well. Archduke Eduard explains how these values can be implemented in the lives of people today.
