- Abstract
-
Political Education has a long tradition in Austrian adult education. In the period of the Second Republic, ist is cinsidered marginalized. A closer look puts this assumption into perspective. Political education is widely party-centered and present in large-scale organizations such as the Federation of Trade Unions. There is a wide and confusing institutional landscape. With a few exeptions, political education is marginalized within traditional adult education such as the peoples universities (Volkshochschulen). Entirely lacking is a broad theoretically founded empirical survey and continuos research. Moreover, basic empirical data are missing. Against this background, this article outlines an overview on the current status trying to specify and qualify the assertion of a marginalized political education. It shows that political education is partly apolitical. Comparisons with Germany allow a better appraisal.
