This book argues that Germans and Austrians have dealt with the
Nazi past very differently and these differences have had important
consequences for political culture and partisan politics in the two
countries. Drawing on different literatures in political science,
Art builds a framework for understanding how public deliberation
transforms the political environment in which it occurs. The book
analyzes how public debates about the 'lessons of history' created
a culture of contrition in Germany that prevented a resurgent far
right from consolidating itself in German politics after
unification. By contrast, public debates in Austria nourished a
culture of victimization that provided a hospitable environment for
the rise of right-wing populism. The argument is supported by
evidence from nearly two hundred semi-structured interviews and an
analysis of the German and Austrian print media over a twenty-year
period.
