When nationalism stopped in Europe, the Frage was praised by a von Orell Füssli organizer Lesung Robert Menasses in Bern. The Austrian Scripture writer answers with bissigem Wiener Schmäh: “Bei einer leiche wat die Fingernägel vorerst auch noch.”

Robert Menasse is a sharper critique of nationalism. The «NZZ am Sonntag» can be used as «letzten Europäer». That may be an extreme blade. With both Romans “Die Hauptstadt” and “Die Erweiterung” they have seen the 70-year-old Viennese author as a profound knowledge and representative of the Grundidee of the European Union in position: “Nobody nationalism, no wieder Krieg.” Menasses zületzt erschienener Essay «Die Welt von morgen» is a plea for a rückkehr of the European Union in its Wurzeln as «nachnational Democracy».

Mr Menasse, der new Austrian parliament speaker Walter Rosenkranz (FPÖ) that the state guests have empfangen the right-wing national non-Prime Minister Viktor Orban. Was it lost in Österreich?

I stopped Walter Rosenkranz’s Wahl with the Speakers of Parliament for a Skandal. There is a German National Student Association. A Deutschnationaler as Speaker of Parliament of the Republic of Österreich has done nothing. The fragmentation, which began in the past, begins with parliamentary practice, the sogenante custom: Bisher wurde immer der Kandidat der stimmstärksten Partei zum Parlamentspräsidenten gewählt. If you are no longer in sales, the Abgeordneten is free. In a western democracy, Gewohnheitsrecht nicht über der Verfassung Stehen.

See Herrn Rosenkranz «deutschnational». That’s true and heissen, that’s for a change in Austria and Germany?

It is glaube ich gar nicht. It is his identity as verstehen: German culture as völkisches Geraune. To know that you want to know involves an expanse of human effort and a brilliance of spirit. Man muss nicht more erase. There can be tons of credit cuts.

Anti-Semitism was spoken of in the Antrittsrede.

Who says: There can be a Kreide-fressen. Mittlerweile sind ja diesen Menschen, the Aushöhlung of Democracy, the Aufhebung of Gewaltentrennung and the Backerung of öffentlich-rechtlichen Media fell more heavily than Anti-Semitism. Jeder Antisemit kan be de Satz: “Ich bin kein Antisemit” is infallible, before there is “aber”. If the ÖVP abolishes a bourgeois part of the case, it is a fact that the Rosenkranz can no longer be robbed by the speakers of parliament.

It is the case that if the ÖVP, SPÖ and Neos have a clear overview of a director’s image. A registration of the FPÖ can therefore be carried out.

That’s not certain. When the time comes, it will be the ÖVP of the industrial company that takes power, and yet with the FPÖ koalier. That is an insofern equal, if the ÖVP is programmatically compatible with the freedom of movement.

After the FPÖ put an end to Sammelbecken, the Nazis grew bigger.

As an “Eastern Austrian Home Party” it is one of the foundations of an Austrofaschist party. And the ÖVP is the Nachfolgepartei of the Austrofaschists.

«Der Austrofasschismus galt nach 1945 als Widerstand.»

An Austrofaschist party and the nachfolgepartei of the Austrofaschists, who is left out, what is the largest party in Austria?

That’s the historical Green. In Österreich it has become Nationalsozialismus aufgearbeitet, after the Zeit des Austrofaschismus 1933–1938. I am Gegenteil. The Austrofaschist Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss, who was created for the sovereignty of Austria, was formed by the National Socialists in July 1934. Dadurch galt der Austrofassschismus nach 1945 als Widerstand. That is why man is not alone: Der Widerstand in Österreich was fascist. Und more noch: There wurde zum Synonym for Patriotismus. The war in Austria is a fact, but the Alltagsfaschismus is a synonym for patriotic war. And the happiness in Austria is best for Patriots.

In my essay «The world of tomorrow» I wrote: «Der nationalismus hat keine Zukunft.» It’s a bit weird.

If I have never been written, there is no question of a kraftige situation, but this is not an insignificant hat. The major reforms and crises that are being considered can only support the national state. Nationalism can fully proclaim the Leuten, as an exclusive people living in the world, when the world no longer exists. If you can no longer stop, this can happen. Then a deluge and aggression cannot occur.

Was it safe, didn’t it stop?

The fragment is: Braucht is one of the most common cases with the Wirtschaftskrise, Elend envielleicht sogar Bürgerkrieg, um am Ende acknowledges zu müssen: «Das soll nie wieder geschehen; is it a common European policy? Or how political power at home and its fragments are stopped, while Europe gets out of trouble, before everything is run by Bach.

Ersteres klingt was a new version of the 1945 experience.

Naturally. The problem is that man has a problem, a problem with growth and the ability to respond.

If you look at the German ex-kanzlerin Angela Merkel as a figure, the world of national interests in the EU has become one. It never happened, if the first part of the war happens, the Krieg dies after the war.

For his predecessor Helmut Kohl war sonnenklar: Deutsche Politik muss immer auch Europapolitik sein. Angela Merkel no longer survived the post-war generation that formed the first part of the socialist GDR. My vision is a travel pass and more travel experiences. Damned war for the History of the Wiedervereinigung zu Ende. She has a Europolitan vision. You can use the Gemeinschafts method and start with bilateral advocacy by nation states. This money is second to none in the EU.

In the Schweiz story that is the problem of the Rahmen delay, if it happens in the Verhältnis of the Mitgliedsländer zur EU: the nationalist wollen are “fremden Richter”, the wollen employees of the Löhne and the Arbeitsplätze-schützen.

The common legal position is the core of the EU. Everything else, the common Market, which offer Borders, which common Währung, is based on that. The nationalists see their lawsuits as a representation of their national sovereignty. This is not a problem. The problem is that the country has been clarified, it is an endearment and never seen, it is a matter of winning. There were no longer any interests in the Union, but community politics and community law for all citizens would no longer be so good. The fact is that it is the sovereign of the citizens and not the sovereign of the nations.

“Switzerland was the first time that the EU entered a democratic world.”

Was it for a country in Switzerland that the Verhältnis zur EU was a new dominion?

Switzerland was first an EU-Beitritt in August, when the EU-democratic world with the European Commission as Regierung, the EU-Parliament as European People’s Government and the Entmachtung des EU-Rats, was founded. There is a committee chairman of the Council of the National State and Government Executive Directors. If you want to separate the parliaments, separate them. That’s grotesque.

In the Schweiz era, the democratic right, which has lost the power of initiative and referenda, has been lost.

It’s no different. In the EU-Verträgen, the subsidiaritätsprinzip-festgeschrieben. It is clear that this process will take place in one of the hierarchies. It is difficult to pass the time with plebiszitären elements on regional Ebene connections. The problem in the EU is that the ministry’s principle of subsidiarity is considered the ministry of national interests.

If you like, national interests in the European Union will increase. We see the Danube Monarchy as historical models for a certain state of life. Who says that?

In the Danube Monarchy one could go to the Beispiel with the Bahn from Lwiw nach Triest Fahren. We have 27 national railway companies in Europe. Was war the Habsburg Monarchy? Common Market, common Währung, common Verwaltung, common Parlament and a common Armee on the basis of a Vielzahl von Kulturen, Mentalitäten and Sprachen, the Reichtum der Monarchie has a position of power. It is not that the monarchy of nationalists is active in the Luft world. Danach follows two World War II.

The Monarchy is Vergaanheit. A big part of the European story is that it is so bad that the national Myths are so mutilated.

The EU has a story. There is no forgetting. After the first Weltkrieg, a million people had undergone parole «Nie wieder Krieg» in the Strasse. What happened? It is impossible to see a large Krieg. The Gründer generation of European projects has solved the problem. If a terminology flourishes, the paper is not true, it is written. All states that were involved in the Zweiten Weltkrieg had a different Friedensverträge. Ukraine and Russia have had a Treaty of Peace. The brilliant idea of the Gründer generation of the EU war, Frieden z purchase ohne Friedensverträge, sonondern by the Verflechtung von Nationalökonomien and the Herstellung wechselseitiger Abhängigkeiten. Sodass kein Staat more etwas gegen unternehmen kann, ohne selber zu harmen.
