sfr.htm For unculturel persons I have to say that Karl Marx Hof is named after Karl Marx, who was the father behind an alternativ to the capitalistic way of living called Marxism. Even though the result is not an increased welfare or a better life for the single individual, people still dream about this utopia created by the thoughts of Marx. Many people have tried make his ideas come through one way or another (with or without armed revolution). www.foverskov.net /sfr.htm   (322 words)

Public Hausing Metropolis Magazine October 1999 Stretching almost a mile along a major railway line, the Karl-Marx-Hof featured five monumental archways, a striking red and yellow stucco facade, and lush interior courtyards as well as state-of-the-art kindergartens, playgrounds, maternity clinics, health-care offices, lending libraries, laundries, and a host of other social services. Against the backdrop of severe food and housing shortages produced by both the military defeat and the collapse of the monarchy, the Social Democrats won a significant electoral victory in the municipal elections of May 1919, making Vienna the first major European capital to be governed by an absolute majority of socialists. The government constructed 400 apartment complexes--64,000 new apartments in all--that together housed one-tenth of the city's population. www.metropolismag.com /html/content_1099/oc99ph.htm   (1655 words)

The Architecture of Red Vienna 1919-1934 by Eric Mumford Shifts in the city administration in Vienna ended this settlement movement by 1924, and Karl Ehn, a Wagner student, led the way towards the building of large perimeter block apartment houses, of which his Karl Marx Hof of 1928 is the best known. For those with little familiarity with the complexities of twentieth-century architectural history, this impressively researched study of 1920s socialist housing in the former Austro-Hungarian Imperial capital may be a bit forbidding. After being stormed by Austrian fascist militias in 1934, the Red Vienna housing blocks became symbols of defeat, even as some of their architects, like Ehn, were able to continue to work under subsequent regimes. www.utpjournals.com /product/utq/701/vienna139.html   (325 words)

1934, Feb. 11-15. 2001. The Encyclopedia of World History Raids by government forces and the Heimwehr on Socialist headquarters led to an uprising and the bombardment of the Karl Marx Hof, the Socialist housing unit, where the leaders had concentrated. The whole affair was badly mismanaged, and the conspirators were routed by Heimwehr troops. Action by Germany on behalf of the Nazis was made impossible by the strong stand of Italy and Yugoslavia, which concentrated large forces on the frontier. www.bartleby.com /67/2008.html   (364 words)

NINETY YEARS OF AVIATION IN AUSTRIA A general strike was called, and civil war broke out in several centres [notably the Karl Marx Hof at Heiligenstadt, Vienna] but was suppressed by the Heimwehr, the police and the army. After the collapse of the Monarchy, local armed defence corps, called 'Heimwehr' were formed to protect homes and farms from roving bands of demobilised soldiers, hungry refugees and common criminals. By the mid 1920s these were grouped into provincial associations led by right-wing politicians, and frequently influenced and funded by Fascists in Germany, Italy and Hungary. www.kitzbuhel.demon.co.uk /austamps/aspern/aspern08.htm   (635 words)

Blogger: Email Post to a Friend The artillery bombardment of the Karl-Marx-Hof and other so-called workers' houses, and especially the later sentencing and execution of nine socialist leaders, have erased any possibility that today's social democratic party in Austria (the SPÖ) could ever entertain the thought that Dollfuss was acting in Austria's best interests during that period. Dollfuss was not one of them, though he constantly had to contend with them because often the right-left struggle meant appeasing other factions on the right. The "Dollfuss" mentioned on the profil cover is Engelbert Dollfuss, who began as a duly-elected Austrian Chancellor (I believe in 1932, but I don't have time to open books) but who ended as a dictator after he pretty much tossed-out the Parliamentary system, making use of a significant flaw in the constitution. www.blogger.com /email-post.g?blogID=5687728&postID=107616636999436937   (2188 words)

Dollfuss was not one of them, though he constantly had to contend with them because often the right-left struggle meant appeasing other factions on the right. Dollfuss did not leap gleefully into ruthless action, as was the image portrayed of him ever afterwards in left-wing demonology. www.billspricht.net /2004_02_01_archive.html   (2188 words)
