The Habsburg Way | feat. Eduard Habsburg

  • Summary

  • In this episode, Kristen speaks with Archduke Eduard Habsburg, Hungarian Ambassador to the Holy See, about his forthcoming book The Habsburg Way.

    Eduard outlines seven rules for a holy and happy life, including:

    • Get Married (and have lots of children)
    • Be Catholic (and practice your faith)
    • Believe in the Empire (and subsidiarity)
    • Die Well (and have a memorable funeral!)

    We discuss several noteworthy figures from his ancestry, and how each of these principles guided both their public and private lives.

    Learn about:

    • The tensions between the Faith and diplomacy
    • The recipe for a successful Catholic marriage
    • The differing Habsburg reactions to the Reformation and the Enlightenment, and how these affected the Church
    • The principle of subsidiarity as the bedrock of governance 
    • How the United States and the Habsburg Empire are more alike than you think!
