Description - The Haider Phenomenon by Anton Pelinka
Austria does not often make political headlines. It has at least twice in recent years: in 1986, when the "Waldheim Affair" was debated world-wide, and in 1999, when the Austrian Freedom Party (FPOe) under Joerg Haider received 27 percent of the vote in national elections. Established by former Nazis for former Nazis, the FPOe entered the mainstream of Austrian politics when it became part of a coalition government in February 2000. This volume explores whether its rise is a uniquely Austrian phenomenon or whether it corresponds to broader social and political changes in Europe.
