dc.description.abstractIn the interwar period, German Catholic politicians and thinkers in Austria used the Habsburg imperial legacy to create a distinct form of cultural internationalism that gave birth to different types of vague, mostly federative, internationalist schemes, which rejected the new Central European order of nation-states. Inspired by an increasingly activist papacy, Austrian Catholics like Ignaz Seipel, Joseph Eberle, Richard Kralik, and the young authors of Die österreichische Aktion promoted their interpretation of what the Habsburg Empire had been to create a loose ideology based on internationalized Catholic cultural politics. Their excessive focus on the power of culture in a 'godless' world polarized the political debate by means of internationalist rhetoric.
