Book Description
Excerpt from The Economic Policy of Austria-Hungary During the War in Its External Relations The main historical interest of the economic policy of Austria Hungary during the War lies precisely in its connection with this idea of a Central Europe bound together, as against the world out side, economically if not politically. This idea, as is pointed out in the following pages, had been warmly advocated before the War by many thinkers and men of affairs both in Germany and Austria Hungary. The War gave it a powerful impetus. The eminent German economist Franz von Liszt published in 1914 a brochure in which he gave it a new expansion, and advocated, in the event of the ultimate victory of the Central Powers, the establishment of a middle-euro pean League of States which should include not only Central Eu rope but all Continental countries from the Arctic Ocean to the shores of the Mediterranean, with the exception of Russia, France, and Spain. The eminent Austrian economist Eugen von Philippe vich followed this up in 1915, at Dr. Von Liszt's invitations, with a contribution to the same serial publication (zwischen K rieg and Frieden) in which, after an elaborate examination of the problems involved, he advocated an economic union between austria-hungary and Germany as the condition precedent to the creation of a wider league. The greatest and most widespread influence, however, was exercised by Friedrich Naumann, whose M itteleuropa also appeared in 1915. This book, with its brilliant and original style and its min gling of practical realism with patriotic and religious idealism, was eminently calculated to appeal to the German popular intelligence. Its success was immense and immediate; it circulated in many thou sands and, translated into several languages, it first revealed the portentous vision of Central Europe to the outside world.

The Afterlife of Austria-Hungary

Book Description
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 was just one link in a chain of events leading to World War I and the downfall of the Austro-Hungarian empire. By 1918, after nearly four hundred years of rule, the Habsburg monarchy was expunged in an instant of history. Remarkably, despite tales of decadence, ethnic indifference, and a failure to modernize, the empire enjoyed a renewed popularity in interwar narratives. Today, it remains a crucial point of reference for Central European identity, evoking nostalgia among the nations that once dismembered it. The Afterlife of Austria-Hungary examines histories, journalism, and literature in the period between world wars to expose both the positive and the negative treatment of the Habsburg monarchy following its dissolution and the powerful influence of fiction and memory over history. Originally published in Polish, Adam Kozuchowski's study analyzes the myriad factors that contributed to this phenomenon. Chief among these were economic depression, widespread authoritarianism on the continent, and the painful rise of aggressive nationalism. Many authors of these narratives were well-known intellectuals who yearned for the high culture and peaceable kingdom of their personal memory. Kozuchowski contrasts these imaginaries with the causal realities of the empire's failure. He considers the aspirations of Czechs, Poles, Romanians, Hungarians, and Austrians, and their quest for autonomy or domination over their neighbors, coupled with the wave of nationalism spreading across Europe. Kozuchowski then dissects the reign of the legendary Habsburg monarch, Franz Joseph, and the lasting perceptions that he inspired. To Kozuchowski, the interwar discourse was a reaction to the monumental change wrought by the dissolution of Austria-Hungary and the fear of a history lost. Those displaced at the empire's end attempted, through collective (and selective) memory, to reconstruct the vision of a once great multinational power. It was an imaginary that would influence future histories of the empire and even became a model for the European Union.
