Bischof, Günter (Hrsg.): Schussel Era in Austria (Contemporary Austrian Studies, Vol 18)

The essays in this volume argue that Schussel's political record and legacy are ambiguous. With a confrontational style of governance he unleashed big reforms -- he was a superb tactician and negotiator and yet failed to transport a larger political vision to the Austrian electorate. His imprint on Austrian history is so significant that many of the authors of the essays in this volume call it the Schussel era.
