{"product_id":"inside-austria-paul-lendvai-9781849040396","title":"Inside Austria: New Challenges, Old Demons","description":"Inside Austria is a gripping, in-depth personal report on postwar Austria's economic and social success story but also on its turbulent political history. How has this small land-locked country emerged as the European Union's fourth richest member state? Who are the Austrians, one of Europe's oldest people whose nation-state came into being only after the collapse of the Austro- Hungarian empire in 1918? To what extent have they come to terms with the demons of their recent past: Hitler's Anschluss, the Waldheim affair and then later Jorg Haider's disturbing radical right-wing ascendancy in Carinthia? This book is a unique study of the Austrian odyssey, based on a blend of academic research and half a century of personal observation by the Hungarian-born author who as a foreign correspondent and later as a political analyst obtained first-hand information from the politicians who played or are still playing a leading part in the march of events he has described.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Lendvai\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1849040397\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781849040396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hurst \u0026amp; Co.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/06\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.78h x 5.77w x 0.83d","brand":"Paul Lendvai","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44077627310335,"sku":"9781849040396","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0eb5cb82-3c28-4855-8f07-cfabc1f82145.jpg?v=1685470961","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/inside-austria-paul-lendvai-9781849040396","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
