Sociology in Austria has been frequently affected by political
developments in the country. This first history of sociology in
Austria examines the impact of the break-up of the Habsburg Empire
and of two consecutive dictatorships, which destroyed academic
freedom by means of forced migration and imprisonment. Even after
1945 the re-established Second Republic did not dismiss professors
promoted during the Nazi period, and failed to invite exiled
academics to return home. The author argues that the result has
been a continuation of favouritism and conformism, with compliance
to political regimes sanctioned at the expense of meritocracy and
that in the light of this chequered past we should celebrate
instances of de-institutionalization.
