The Empire in the Provinces: the Case of Carinthia
religions Article The Empire in the Provinces: The Case of Carinthia Helmut Konrad Institut für Geschichte, Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz, Attemsgasse 8/II, [505] 8010 Graz, Austria; [email protected] Academic Editors: Malachi Hacohen and Peter Iver Kaufman Received: 16 May 2016; Accepted: 1 August 2016; Published: 5 August 2016 Abstract: This article examines the legacy of the Habsburg Monarchy in the First Austrian Republic, both in the capital, Vienna, and in the province of Carinthia. It concludes that Social Democracy, often cited as one of the six ingredients that held the old Empire together, took on distinct forms in the Republic’s different federal states. The scholarly literature on the post-1918 “heritage” of the Monarchy therefore needs to move beyond monolithic generalizations and toward regionally focused comparative studies. Keywords: empire; socialism; Jews; Habsburg Monarchy; Austria; Vienna; Carinthia; German Nationalism; Sprachenkampf 1. Introduction Which forms did the ideas take that allowed the Habsburg monarchy to persist, despite the diversity of nationalisms present in the small Republic of German-Austria, for so long after the end of the First World War? What was the “glue” that held this multiethnic empire together, when its collapse had been predicted since 1848, and which of its elements continued to exist beyond 1918? How was this heritage expressed in the different regions of the new republic? At least six factors can be identified as ingredients of the “glue” that held the monarchy together: first, the Emperor, a figure who symbolized the fusion of the complex linguistic, ethnic and religious components of the Habsburg state; second, the administrative officials, who were loyal to the Emperor and worked in the ubiquitous and even architecturally similar buildings of the Monarchy’s district authorities and train stations; third, the army, whose members promoted the imperial ideals through their long terms of service and acknowledged linguistic diversity. -

Burgenland-Roma
Data » Ethnology and Groups » Roma in Austria » Burgenland-Roma http://romani.uni-graz.at/rombase Burgenland-Roma Romani-Project The Roma residing in present Burgenland, which is the furthest east of the nine Austrian federal states, and borders with Hungary, belong to the group whose members are called Ungrian Roma, → Ungrika-Roma or Romungri in older literature. This group living in the western region of Hungarian influence, ranging from southern Slovakia to northern Slovenia, are characterised by their long-term settlement and, consequently, by a strong Hungarian influence in their culture. History At the end of the 14th century, Roma are first mentioned in western Hungary, to which today’s Burgenland belonged at that time. From the beginning of the 15th century, larger Roma groups started entering the Pannonic border area of western Hungary. Most likely due to the fact that they served in the war as soldiers and blacksmiths, the Roma were at first tolerated and to a certain extent even supported by some of the Hungarian nobility. This favourable condition lead to the first settlements: in the second half of the 17th century, there is documentary evidence of the founding of villages under Christoph Batthyány. In contrast to the liberal Battyány, who controlled southern Burgenland, the Esterházy of northern Burgenland expelled the Roma from their area of influence. This contrast characterises the situation of the Roma at that time as one situated somewhere between acceptance and discrimination. After the end of the Osmanic Reign in 1688, the situation of the Roma living in western Hungary changed. The law was laid down that they were to be banned from the country. -

S-GRA2 Mobility
Rural-Urban Outlooks: Unlocking Synergies (ROBUST) ROBUST receives funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 727988.* August 2018 Federal Institute for Mountainous and Less-Favoured Areas Lisa Bauchinger [email protected] Snapshot: Expressions of Urban – Peri-Urban – Rural Relationships Analysing regional mobility in the Metropolitan Area of Styria Metropolotian Area of Styria, Austria 1. Brief Description The three-year INTERREG Central Europe project “Peripheral Access” (2017 – 2020) involves nine partners from seven European countries with regional case studies in each of these countries, including the Metropolitan Area of Styria in Austria. The main objective of the project is to improve mobility patterns in rural areas. In order to achieve this goal, the project focuses on integrating transport modes through multimodal mobility points, new ways to employ Intelligent Technology Systems (ITS) and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in transport and smart mobility. Moreover, it aims to enhance institutional cooperation between transport authorities and to implement cross-border marketing approaches. Therefore, each partner region conducts an analysis of the status quo of the regional mobility patterns for further development of the supply and the comparability of case study regions. The first progress-report of the case study (Verkehrsplus 2018) serves as the basis for this rapid appraisal of project approach and findings. The analysis of the mobility patterns in the Metropolitan Area of Styria concentrates on the peripheral areas of the region, in the districts Graz-Umgebung (surrounding area of Graz) and Voitsberg. The city of Graz is included only indirectly by analysing the transport links from and out of the city. -

START up INFORMATION City/Partnership Metropolitan Area
START UP INFORMATION City/Partnership Metropolitan Area Styria – Graz & Surroundings Contact Dr. Bernd Gassler, Metropolitan Area Styria; [email protected] Project Urban – Rural Cooperation Cooperation Thematic Area Concrete Challenge Faced Mobility, Land use management The main challenges are to overcome the urban sprawl, to avoid sealing, to minimize emission and to promote sustainable and alternative mobility solutions. Because of demographic challenges (population decline in the periphery areas and population growth in the urban and suburban areas) the region must ensure appropriate measures. SHORT SUMARY OF THE CITY’S CONTEXT The functional, economic and demographic centre of Styria is known as its “metropolitan area” and is characterized by both urbanity and rural areas. It includes the City of Graz and the districts Graz-Surrounding & Voitsberg. With its 52 municipalities it covers about 1.900 km². Approximately 487.000 inhabitants live in the region, this leads to an average population density of 257 IN/km2 (City of Graz included). Regarding the single values in the two districts Voitsberg and Graz-Umgebung, the population density varies from 20 IN/km2 in very rural areas to 100 IN/km2 in peripheral-rural and 600 IN/km2 in (sub)-urban municipalities in the south of Graz. Beside the City of Graz there are two sub centres in the western part of the area: the cities Koeflach & Voitsberg. Referring to the geographical framework, the area is embedded in the south eastern alpine foothills, not far from the border between Austria and Slovenia. The northern and eastern transition zone of the city region of Graz is affected by a relatively abrupt switchover from urban to rural areas once from a topographic and twice from a functional point. -
