	Austrian Civil War
		The Austrian Civil War, also known as the February Uprising, is a term sometimes used for a few days of skirmishes between socialist and conservative forces between 12 February and 16 February 1934 in Austria.
		But the events of the Austrian Civil War had persuaded many in the political establishment (and, indeed, the population at large) that a slow pace of political reform was a small price to pay for social calm.
		In particular, representatives of the Austrian People's Party sometimes argue the necessity of the abolition of democracy in order to fight Nazism, and the party's parliamentary faction still has a picture of Dollfuss, the chancellor who suspended parliament, in its office rooms.

	Austrian Economics, by Deborah L. Walker: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty
		Austrian analysis fell out of favor with the economics profession during the fifties and sixties, but the awarding of the Nobel Prize in economics to Hayek in 1974, coupled with the spread of Mises's ideas by his students and followers, led to a revival of the Austrian school.
		Although Austrian economists are not alone in their methodological individualism, they do not stress the maximizing behavior of individuals in the same way as mainstream neoclassical economists.
		The Austrian theory of the business cycle and of the inflationary process that takes place because of credit expansion through monetary policy, and the Austrian explanation of the emergence of money in a modern economy are also important contributions to economic analysis.

	Austrian People's Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For most of its existence, the People's Party has explicitly defined itself as Catholic and anti-socialist; the ideal of subsidiarity as defined by the encyclical Quadragesimo Anno is generally considered one of the historical cornerstones of its agenda.
		Nowadays, with regard to economic policy, the People's Party is advocating liberalisiation of economy, endorsing the reduction of Austria's relatively large public sector, welfare reform, and general deregulation.
		The Austrian People's Party is the successor of the Christian Social Party, a staunchly conservative movement founded in 1893 by Karl Lueger, mayor of Vienna and highly controversial right-wing populist.

		With an almost modern realism he reproduced the motley world of the old chronicler, at the same time not losing sight of the needs of the theater; the fall of Ottokar is but another text from which the poet preached the futility of endeavor and the vanity of worldly greatness.

		That is, all the Austrian economic theory doesn't contain some indication of what people should and shouldn't value.
		It works just as well if people value walking on their hands everywhere they go rather than on their feet.

	WorldNetDaily: Playing the label game
		Speaking of political labels, as editor Joseph Farah mentioned in his column yesterday, it must be a global game now to attack somebody's politics and character by calling them a "conservative." To be labeled "conservative" is to be equated with being "evil," "stingy," "homophobic," "intolerant," and "Nazi," among other unsavory things.
		So in other words, to hell with what the people say or think -- as usual, socialists are proving they are the same the world over; too arrogant to let the people speak and too hubristic to allow the people to think for themselves.
		Maybe to Austrians the problems highlighted by Haider are more pressing and more important to them than some guy living in London, or wherever in England he calls his home.

		He said one of the reasons for a distorted view of the past was that Austrian political parties ``competed for the favours of members of the former National Socialist Party'' when the new republic was set up.
		It should be spelt out that ``the duty of Austrian citizens was to be involved in the resistance after the Anschluss,'' Wiesenthal said, referring to March 1938 when Hitler absorbed Austria into the Third Reich.
