    CENTER FOR AUSTRIAN STUDIES AUSTRIAN STUDIES NEWSLETTER Vol. 16, No. 2 Fall 2004 Thomas Klestil at home and abroad by Anton Pelinka Thomas Klestil (1932-2004), the seventh federal president of Austria since 1945, died less than two days before his tenure as head of state would have ended. Klestil’s life and career reflect the success story of the Second Republic, but also some critical aspects of Austria. In America, where he spent many years as a diplomat, he did much to promote a positive Austrian image. As president, he tempered that judiciously with post-Waldheim honesty and won many friends for Austria in Central Europe. However, within his own country, he was a controversial man who was sometimes at odds with his party and lacked the necessary power to change policy. Klestil was the product of an atypical social and political environment: His family was strictly Catholic, but his father worked for the Vienna public transportation authority. As a streetcar conductor, his father was part of an overwhelmingly socialist milieu. But his Catholic background made him and his family a minority—a Catholic conservative exception, living in a typical blue-collar part of Vienna (Erdberg); a member of the Catholic conservative camp surrounded by members of the socialist camp. Thomas Klestil’s career was influenced by these roots. During his studies at the University of Economics in Vienna, he joined a Catholic fraternity—the “Cartell-Verband” (CV), which has always been strongly identified with the Christian Social Party, with the Dollfuß Regime and, beginning in 1945, with the Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP).

Commemoration versus Vergangenheitsbewältigung: Contextualizing Austria’s Gedenkjahr 2005* Abstract This essay explores the politics of memory in post-1945 Austrian political culture, focusing on the shift between the fiftieth anniversary of the Anschluss and the sixtieth anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Postwar Austrian society experienced a particular tension associated with the Nazi past, manifested in communicative and cultural forms of memory. On the one hand, the support of many for the Third Reich—expressed through active or passive complicity—threatened to link Austria with the perpetrator status reserved for German society. On the other, the Allies’ Moscow Declaration (1943) created a myth of victimization by Germany that allowed Austrians to avoid confronting difficult questions concerning the Nazi era. Consequently, discussion of Austrian involvement in National Socialism became a taboo subject during the initial decades of the Second Republic. The 2005 commemoration is notable insofar as it marked a significant break with this taboo.

  • Speech by the President of the European Parliament Hans-Gert
    Address of Austrian President Dr. Thomas Klestil to the Knesset, Jerusalem, November 15, 1994 Mr President of the State of Israel, Mr President of the Knesset, Distinguished members of the Government and Parliament, Ladies and gentlemen: I am very conscious of the momentous nature of this occasion as I stand here before you. I stand before you as the first president of the Republic of Austria ever to have visited the State of Israel. And it is 125 years to the day since the Austrian emperor Francis Joseph, who had the title of "King of Jerusalem," visited the holy places of the Jews, the Christians and the Moslems. I stand before you as the representative of the Austrian people, whose destiny has been and still is so fatefully bound up with both the greatness and the despair of the Jewish people. I stand before you as a friend, who knows full well the burden of history, but who also firmly believes in the opportunities that the future holds for us all as we rediscover what we have in common. I stand before you here in the Knesset, the very heart of Israeli democracy. Here to my right the visionary father of the State of Israel, Theodor Herzl from Vienna, looks down on us from high, and yet it is the hall in which the flag of my native country Austria was rent asunder in the hour of our greatest estrangement. Deeply moved by the interplay between the extremes of closeness and distance in our relations, I accepted your president's invitation with particular pleasure and gratitude, and, I can confess, with the highest expectations.

The new members Austria, as well as Sweden and Finland, were all deeply rooted democracies and had highly developed economies. They came to the conclusion that in order to have a say and to profit from all the rights and of course the included duties, it was time to join the EU. In 1994, the opinion in Austria concerning the accession to the EU was divided. On the one hand, there were those who saw it as a way to guarantee a prosperous future for Austria and on the other hand, those who saw in such a membership the representation of evil.
