!!!Linzer Programm

Linz Programme, 1) German-National programme of 1882, which aimed at 
strengthening the German character of the western half of the 
Austrian-Hungarian monarchy and envisaged only a personal union with 
Hungary. It was developed by G. v.  Schoenerer, V.  Adler and E.  
Pernerstorfer. The latter two withdrew, when G. v. Schoenerer included 
an anti-Semitic passage, so that it only became relevant for the 
political group led by Schoenerer; 2) "Programme of the Christian 
Workers of Austria" which was adopted in 1923, but never gained much 
importance; 3) Marxist programme adopted in 1926 at the party 
conference of the Social Democratic Workers´ Party, strongly 
influenced by O.  Bauer. Although its basic ideas were defensive, the 
freely used passage "dictatorship of the working class" gave its 
political opponents a useful argument in their political struggle and 
considerably contributed to the aggravation of ideological 
differences.
