Book From Empire to Republic

    Book Details:
  • Author : Collectif
  • Publisher : innsbruck University Press
  • Release : 2016-09-29
  • ISBN : 3903122394
  • Pages : 448 pages

Download or read book From Empire to Republic written by Collectif and published by innsbruck University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, Austria transformed itself from an empire to a small Central European country. Formerly an important player in international affairs, the new republic was quickly sidelined by the European concert of powers. The enormous losses of territory and population in Austria's post-Habsburg state of existence, however, did not result in a political, economic, cultural, and intellectual black hole. The essays in the twentieth anniversary volume of Contemporary Austrian Studies argue that the small Austrian nation found its place in the global arena of the twentieth century and made a mark both on Europe and the world. Be it Freudian psychoanalysis, the “fin-de-siècle” Vienna culture of modernism, Austro-Marxist thought, or the Austrian School of Economics, Austrian hinkers and ideas were still wielding a notable impact on the world. Alongside these cultural and intellectual dimensions, Vienna remained the Austrian capital and reasserted its strong position in Central European and international business and finance. Innovative Austrian companies are operating all over the globe. This volume also examines how the globalizing world of the twentieth century has impacted Austrian demography, society, and political life. Austria's place in the contemporary world is increasingly determined by the forces of the European integration process. European Union membership brings about convergence and a regional orientation with ramifications for Austria's global role. Austria emerges in the essays of this volume as a highly globalized country with an economy, society, and political culture deeply grounded in Europe. The globalization of Austria, it appears, turns out to be in many instances an “Europeanization”.

Book Handbook of European Intelligence Cultures

Download or read book Handbook of European Intelligence Cultures written by Bob de Graaff and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National intelligence cultures are shaped by their country’s history and environment. Featuring 32 countries (such as Albania, Belgium, Croatia, Norway, Latvia, Montenegro), the work provides insight into a number of rarely discussed national intelligence agencies to allow for comparative study, offering hard to find information into one volume. In their chapters, the contributors, who are all experts from the countries discussed, address the intelligence community rather than focus on a single agency. They examine the environment in which an organization operates, its actors, and cultural and ideological climate, to cover both the external and internal factors that influence a nation’s intelligence community. The result is an exhaustive, unique survey of European intelligence communities rarely discussed.

Book Understanding Austria

  • Author : Martin Florian Herz
  • Publisher : Georgetown University Press
  • Release : 1984
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 674 pages

Download or read book Understanding Austria written by Martin Florian Herz and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 160 documents written by Herz during his service as a major in the U.S. Army in Vienna in 1945, and as Third (later Second) Secretary of the American Legation between January 1947-December 1948. He played an important role in political reporting, focusing on Austrian party politics. Includes scattered references to antisemitism and denazification proceedings. Pp. 112-123 contain comments on two press articles on the "Jewish question": the first, by the mayor of Vienna, denying that antisemitism was rife in the city and explaining delays in restitution of Aryanized property; the second, a general article in a research journal. Notes that although antisemitism persisted, it was not a serious political problem. Popular resentment was aroused because of the better conditions and food given to Jewish DPs, and because of their black market activities.

Book A Patriot s History of the United States

Download or read book A Patriot s History of the United States written by Larry Schweikart and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-12-29 with total page 1350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of “dead white men.” As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin. A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.
