While there are countless studies on Austria's universities after the "Anschluss" in 1938, the five years before have hardly been covered in terms of university history. This astonishing research gap is closed by the present book, which impressively shows how much the University of Vienna suffered under the Dollfuß/Schuschnigg dictatorship. On the one hand, there were radical economy measures, which were used for political and anti-Semitic "purges" of the teaching staff. On the other hand, the rulers intervened in university and student self-administration by means of new laws. This self-inflicted provincialization was seamlessly continued after 1945, when former Austrofascist functionaries were used throughout, especially in the university leadership.
