The Austrian Marshall Plan Anniversary Foundation in Vienna has been very generous in supporting CenterAustria at the University of New Orleans and its publications series. The College of Liberal Arts at the University of New Orleans and the Auslandsamt of the University of Innsbruck provided additional financial support as did the Cultural Office of the City of Innsbruck. PREFACE The Twentieth Anniversary Issue Günter Bischof The publication of the twentieth volume of Contemporary Austrian Studies (CAS) represents a minor triumph for the dedicated commitment of CenterAustria at the University of New Orleans (UNO) to the serious scholarly study of twentieth/twenty-first century Austria. We share this triumph with the Department of Political Science at the University of Innsbruck. This publication series has become a mainstay of a transatlantic university partnership that has been growing for almost forty years and is quite unique in its intensity of both faculty and student exchanges and a rich cross-fertilization of ideas. The continued publication of CAS is all the more remarkable since the crisis in the public higher education arena in Louisiana has not been kind to university budgets, including the steady production of scholarly work and publications on a regular basis. These pressures to cut the financing of higher education budgets have afflicted the State of Louisiana for the past three years. To a lesser degree the same is true for Austrian university budgets, where massive cuts are also announced for the year 2012. This is the actual environment in which this publication series is carried on against all odds on both sides of the Atlantic. Looking at this publication series quantitatively, over the course of the past twenty years we have moved 408 manuscripts through the editing process—190 were published in the first ten volumes and another 218 in CAS 1-10 CAS 11-20 1918- 1938- 1945- 1984- pre- 1918- 1938- 1945- 1984- 2000- 1938- 1945- 1983- 2000- 1914 1938- 1945- 1983- 2000- 2010- HISTORY Political/Social 2 5 5 2 11 8 8 2 Diplomatic/International 11 2 1 5 8 2 2 Economic 11 2 8 1 4 4 Intellectual 1 1 2 1 2 Memory 12 1 2 2 1 Culture/Identity 2 1 2 6 Religion 3 5 Gender 1 3 3 1 1 7 2 Intelligence 2 3 POLITIAL SCIENCE Domestic/ 11 17 3 3 10 Political Culture Foreign Relations/ 2 9 3 International European Union 6 2 ROUNDTABLES/ 3 3 2 3 FORUMS REVIEW ESSAYS 12 15 BOOK REVIEWS 51 51 ANNUAL REVIEW 10 10 INTRODUCTIONS 21 9 TOTAL 190 218 The (XX) (XX) that “histories (XV).

One hundred and two book reviews and twenty-seven review essays in these twenty volumes attest to that. We have regularly tried to get top experts on both sides of the Atlantic to pen critical book reviews of some of the most important books published on Austrian affairs. Whether these reviews are read by anyone else but the authors and editors we do not know. Needless to say, the editors would like to think that these volumes measure up to a high standard of scholarship, and their peers have the last word on the quality of Contemporary Austrian Studies as a serious and engaging scholarly forum. Unfortunately, we have never had the time nor the means to do a serious study or survey of the reception of these volumes in the scholarly community, let alone in the broader public. Circumstantial evidence seems to suggest that the Anglo-American scholarly community peruse and cite the essays in these volumes more regularly than colleagues in Austria.

  • AV Austria Innsbruck
    AV Austria Innsbruck Home Die Austria Die Geschichte der AV Austria Innsbruck Austrier Blätter Folgend geben wir lediglich einen kurzen Überblick und Auszüge von unserer Verbindungsgeschichte: Programm Interesse? Die ersten Jahre Intern Unsere Verbindung wurde am 9. Juni 1864 von zwei Kontakt Philosophiestudenten, Franz Schedle und Johann Wolf, gegründet. Sie ist damit die älteste katholische Verbindung Österreichs und die "vierte" Verbindung, die dem damals noch Deutschland, Österreich und Tschechien umfassenden Cartellverband (CV) beitrat. Die Anfangsjahre waren von der liberalen und kirchenfeindlichen Denkweise vieler Professoren und Studenten an der Universität, speziell der schlagenden Corps, und daraus resultierenden Anfeindungen bis hin zu tätlichen Übergriffen geprägt. Ein gewaltiger Dorn im Auge war den bestehenden Corps vor allem die Ablehnung der Mensur, was zu vielen Provokationen und Ehrbeleidigungen führte. Ein in Couleurkreisen relativ bekannter Austrier beispielsweise, Josef Hinter, späterer Gründer der Carolina Graz, wurde wegen der Ablehnung eines Duells mit einem Schlagenden unehrenhaft aus der kaiserlichen Armee entlassen, und dies war kein Einzelfall. Dennoch gelang es der Austria, binnen sechs Jahren zur größten Verbindung Innsbrucks zu werden. Die Austria bildete 1866 etwa den dritten Zug der Akademischen Legion (Studentenkompanie) im Krieg gegen Italien. Zugsführer war der Gründer der Austria, Franz Xaver Schedle! Die Fahne der Studentenkompanie hängt heute in einem Schaukasten bei der Aula der Leopold-Franzens-Universität Innsbruck. In dieser Aula prangert übrigens auch an der Strinseite des Saales unser Wahlspruch! Damals wie heute lauteten die Prinzipien: RELIGIO, das Bekenntnis zur Römisch-Katholischen Kirche PATRIA, Heimatliebe und Bekenntnis zum Vaterland Österreich SCIENTIA, akademische und persönliche Weiterbildung AMICITIA, Brüderlichkeit und Freundschaft Mehr über unsere 4 Prinzipien erfährst Du unter "Prinzipien".

  • Principles, Circumstances and Constraints: the Nationalbank As Lender of Last Resort from 1816 to 1931
    Principles, circumstances and constraints: the Nationalbank as lender of last resort from 1816 to 1931 Clemens Jobst, In this study, we provide a discussion of the role the Austrian central bank played as a lender Kilian Rieder1 of last resort (LLR) during selected episodes of financial distress from the Nationalbank’s foundation in 1816 until the Creditanstalt crisis of 1931. Based on our evidence, we argue that free lending as advocated by British economist Walter Bagehot was historically the exception rather than the rule in Austria, and that no clear evolution toward more “free lending” is observable over time. The panic of 1912, a particularly fascinating example of a “forgotten” crisis that has never been investigated in detail, serves as our benchmark because the Natio- nalbank’s crisis management during this specific episode comes very close to an effective case of free lending. Instances of credit rationing during other financial crises seem to have emerged as a consequence of public doubts about the value-storing capacity of banknotes and due to a lack of discountable or pledgeable assets resulting from the Nationalbank’s regulations and/ or risk management framework. Our study echoes earlier literature in the field, underlining the importance of the microeconomics of last resort lending, including the incentive structure of lending programs and the ex ante supervision of counterparties. JEL classification: E58, G01, N13, N14 Keywords: central bank, Austria, Oesterreichische Nationalbank, lender of last resort, financial crisis, banking crisis, credit rationing, liquidity crisis, bank run, moral hazard, Bagehot Why have central banks’ responses to academics, ever since Henry Thorn- financial crises differed so much over ton’s 1802 treatise on The Paper Credit of time?

  • Chapter 6 the Aftermath of the Cambridge-Vienna Controversy: Radioactivity and Politics in Vienna in the 1930S
    Trafficking Materials and Maria Rentetzi Gendered Experimental Practices Chapter 6 The Aftermath of the Cambridge-Vienna Controversy: Radioactivity and Politics in Vienna in the 1930s Consequences of the Cambridge-Vienna episode ranged from the entrance of other 1 research centers into the field as the study of the atomic nucleus became a promising area of scientific investigation to the development of new experimental methods. As Jeff Hughes describes, three key groups turned to the study of atomic nucleus. Gerhard Hoffman and his student Heinz Pose studied artificial disintegration at the Physics Institute of the University of Halle using a polonium source sent by Meyer.1 In Paris, Maurice de Broglie turned his well-equipped laboratory for x-ray research into a center for radioactivity studies and Madame Curie started to accumulate polonium for research on artificial disintegration. The need to replace the scintillation counters with a more reliable technique also 2 led to the extensive use of the cloud chamber in Cambridge.2 Simultaneously, the development of electric counting methods for measuring alpha particles in Rutherford's laboratory secured quantitative investigations and prompted Stetter and Schmidt from the Vienna Institute to focus on the valve amplifier technique.3 Essential for the work in both the Cambridge and the Vienna laboratories was the use of polonium as a strong source of alpha particles for those methods as an alternative to the scintillation technique. Besides serving as a place for scientific production, the laboratory was definitely 3 also a space for work where tasks were labeled as skilled and unskilled and positions were divided to those paid monthly and those supported by grant money or by research fellowships.

Life in the ghetto of Lodz Life in the ghetto of Lodz A ”special area” for Jews Three weeks after the invasion of Poland Reinhard Heydrich, leader of the security service in Nazi Germany, instructed the so called Einsatzgruppen that the Jews should be concentrated in special areas Vashem© Yad and that this was neccesary in order to accomplish the “final goal”, i.e. to get rid of all the Jews. Therefore Artur Greiser and Friedrich Uebelhoer, Nazi leaders for Wartheland, where Jakob was born, acted according to this intent when they started planning for a special living area for Jews in Lodz. The planning of the ghetto started in December 1939. The authorities sent a message to the Jewish Community instructing them on how the resettlement should be carried out. The assigned area included the Old City, where many Jews already lived, and part of the district Baluty in the outskirts of the city, representing a total area of 4.13 square kilometers. Both areas were poor and run-down. Most of the houses Arthur Greiser, leader of the Wartheland region. did not have running water or sewage. To isolate the area and keep the non-Jewish population out large signs were posted at the entrances, warning people of epidemics and illnesses in the Jewish settlement area.
