Brünner Programm#

Bruenner Programm: At their party convention in Bruenn (Brno) in 1899, the Social Democrats decided on principles for the solution of the nationality and language issues of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy on the basis of equal rights. The so-called Bruenn Programm called for the "reorganisation of Austria as a democratic federal state consisting of various nationalities, the setting up of independent national bodies with self-administration and absolute autonomy concerning national affairs, a legal framework for the regulation of the minority question." (Hugo Hantsch).
