Town in Austria Honors 31 Jehovah's Witnesses, Victims of Nazi Town in Austria Honors 31 Jehovah’s Witnesses, Victims of Nazi Regime https://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/austria/town-honors-31-j... AUGUST 22, 2017 AUSTRIA SELTERS, Germany—On the morning of May 19, 2017, the municipality of Techelsberg, Austria, held a ceremony in remembrance of Jehovah’s Witnesses who were executed or imprisoned in concentration camps by the Nazis. A memorial plaque was unveiled during the event that acknowledged a total of 31 Witnesses as “victims of National Socialism in Techelsberg and its surroundings.” The program began with 60 vocalists singing “Forward, You Witnesses!” a cappella. The song, a version of which is still periodically sung during worship services held by Witnesses around the world, was originally composed in the Mayor of Techelsberg, Mr. Johann Koban Sachsenhausen concentration camp by Erich (center), unveiling the Techelsberg plaque, along Frost, a Witness imprisoned by the Nazis during with Peter Stocker (right) and state governor of World War II. Following the musical introduction, Carinthia, Dr. Peter Kaiser (left). 1 of 4 8/22/17, 5:28 PM Town in Austria Honors 31 Jehovah’s Witnesses, Victims of Nazi Regime https://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/austria/town-honors-31-j... Copyright © 2017 Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania. guest speakers Mr. Johann Koban (mayor of Techelsberg), Mr. Peter Stocker (grandson of one of the Techelsberg victims, Gregor Wohlfahrt, Sr.), Prof. Peter Gstettner, Prof. Vinzenz Jobst, and Dr. Peter Kaiser (state governor) addressed an estimated 350 in attendance. The Austrian news stations ORF 2 and ORF Kärnten covered the event along with several local newspapers. During World War II, 212 of the 550 Witnesses in Austria were sent to concentration camps, mistakenly viewed as a threat to Germany’s National Socialist regime, both for their neutral political stand and for their refusal to support war efforts. In the concentration camps, Jehovah’s Witnesses were forced to wear purple triangles on their uniforms for identification. A total of 154 Austrian Witnesses died in the Holocaust. Prior to the commemoration, the five Witnesses from Techelsberg who were executed by the Nazis (Johann Stossier, Anton Uran, Gregor Wohlfahrt, Sr., Gregor Wohlfahrt, Jr., and Willibald Wohlfahrt) were listed on a war memorial as Prof. Peter Gstettner addressing those in “missing persons,” a historical inaccuracy. attendance. Prof. Gstettner explained the significance of the plaque: “This brings the historical truth visibly to the fore, now in the right place as a lasting memory to those people, who with incredible courage, and with the whole truthfulness of their faith, testified that steadfastness in resistance to the demands of an inhuman system is morally justified and, in the end, remains victorious.” 2 of 4 8/22/17, 5:28 PM Town in Austria Honors 31 Jehovah’s Witnesses, Victims of Nazi Regime https://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/austria/town-honors-31-j... The Techelsberg commemorative plaque for 31 Jehovah’s Witnesses killed, imprisoned, or otherwise victimized by the Nazis during World War II. The plaque quotes a poem written by Franz Wohlfahrt (see box below) and lists the five Witnesses from Techelsberg who were originally listed on a war memorial as “missing persons.” Johann Zimmermann, spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses in Austria, states: “We appreciate events like this that recognize the courage and faith of Jehovah’s Witnesses in spite of vicious persecution. We hope that this event has served as a sobering reminder of the cruelty that can result when a minority group is erroneously perceived as a pernicious threat to the State.” Portrait of Wohlfahrt family (Franz is highlighted). Among the survivors of the Nazi regime from Techelsberg was Franz Wohlfahrt (January 18, 1920 – December 12, 2009), who saw a total of 15 members of his family arrested because they were Witnesses. “Seven of them were executed, the majority by guillotine. One was gassed, and the others died in concentration camps and Gestapo jails,” he stated in a 1993 interview at the age of 73. “Almost every day [in the concentration camp] I was reminded by the guards that if Germany lost the war, they still would have enough ammunition to execute me.” His father, Gregor, younger brothers, Gregor Jr., and Willibald, are three of the five victims listed on the plaque along with Johann Stossier and Anton Uran. The plaque in Techelsberg features a partial quote from a poem written by Franz. Assuming his execution was imminent, after learning that his father and brother were executed, he wrote the poem in 1944 in the Rollwald concentration camp: 3 of 4 8/22/17, 5:28 PM Town in Austria Honors 31 Jehovah’s Witnesses, Victims of Nazi Regime https://www.jw.org/en/news/releases/by-region/austria/town-honors-31-j...

While the difficult work of the past four years, which involved necessary cuts, was not universally well-received, it was however accepted in overall terms. Nevertheless, we safely pi- loted our ship of state through a challenging period, and this was recognised by voters when they confirmed the parliamentary majorities.

  • Austria's Ongoing Legal Struggle in the Fight Against the Pandemic
    Austria’s Ongoing Legal Struggle in the Fight Against the Pandemic verfassungsblog.de/no-benefit-of-hindsight/ December 3, 2020 Susanne Gstöttner Konrad Lachmayer 03 December 2020 No Benefit of Hindsight Austria is currently in the midst of a second hard lockdown. This move came after a somewhat carefree summertime that ended rather chaotic. Since then, the government has reacted late, the public was informed at short notice, coordination of the administration was poor and the enacted legislation and enforcement of measures are constitutionally problematic. Croatian Summertime In May 2020, the Austrian government started to reduce the lock-down measures from March 2020 step by step. It appears that in June people were under the impression that the Coronavirus did not have the same relevance anymore, that COVID-19 was defeated. The overall daily infection rate typically ranged between 20 and 70 persons. By mid-June the obligation to wear face masks was abandoned and restrictions in restaurants were significantly reduced. Normal life appeared possible again, which included summer holidays – not only in Austria but especially in Southern European countries like Spain, Italy, Greece, and Croatia. While infection numbers in Spain increased significantly already in July, holidays in Croatia still seemed possible in August. The daily infection numbers, however, started increasing considerably in Croatia as well as in Greece and Italy in the second half of August. During the idyllic summertime, the Austrian government issued a travel warning for Croatia in mid-August 2020. This caused many people to rush back to Austria within one week. All tourists coming back had to provide a negative PCR test at the Austrian border or were quarantined for a period of 10 days or until they were tested negative.

  • Political Rituals and Discourses: the Case of Carinthia
    doi:10.7592/FEJF2015.60.fikfak POLITICAL RITUALS AND DISCOURSES: THE CASE OF CARINTHIA Jurij Fikfak Abstract: This article discusses selected ritual practices in Klagenfurt (Sln. Celovec), the capital of the southernmost Austrian state of Carinthia (Germ. Kärnten). The first ritual is connected with October 10, when the 1920 plebiscite is commemorated on the streets of Klagenfurt. In this plebiscite, the majority of people voted for remaining a part of Austria, the successor state to Austria-Hun- gary. The second ritual is a more recent one, known as the Memorial Walk (Germ. Gedenkgehen, Sln. Spominska hoja). Various cultural practices are analysed, as well as the use of symbols and space, media, state, and national discourses. Keywords: alternative practice, memorial walk, Nazism, plebiscite, ritual prac- tices, use of discourse Political rituals are practices set in concrete chronotopes. They express and materialise a sense of belonging, the formation of identities, and the establishment of local, regional, ethnic, national, or state entities. They also represent an area of social cohesion, self-identification, the marking of social affiliation and the exclusion of the Other. Political rituals are unavoidable in social integration (Lukes 1975), socialisation of hierarchies, relations, and the use of power. They are used repeatedly, year after year, to define, embody, and materialise ethnic, language, and other barriers which do not allow a single person, socialised in any community, to remain unaffected or undecided. As Steven Lukes has put it, political rituals mobilise bias, but they also raise questions about the relationships between different discourses, for example, between the official political discourse of the ruling parties, media discourses, the so-called common sense discourse, and the subcultural discourse present mainly among various extremist groups.
