Description: |
Explores the development of the unique symbiosis between Austrians and Jews which culminated in the Anschluss of 1938 and the Holocaust. It also explores the post-war period of Austria and how anti-Semitism survived the war and led to the international isolation of Austria over the Waldheim affair. |
Synopsis: |
The relationship between Austrians and Jews in the twentieth-century has been tragic. In the age of Franz Joseph, Jews achieved a degree of security, although their position was already being undermined by antisemitism, ethnic conflicts and nationalism. This book examines the relationship between Austrians and Jews which culminated in the 1938 Anschluss and the Holocaust. It also shows how antisemitism survived the War and how the ground was prepared for the international isolation of Austria during the Waldheim Affair. |
