Caring for an Austrian school. A Discussion of Kulturkampf im Klassenzimmer. Wie der Islam die Schulen verändert. Bericht einer Lehrerin

Summary/Abstract: This article presents a book by the Viennese teacher Susanne Wiesinger, which deals with the situation in Austrian (Viennese) schools. Attention is focused on Muslim children and youth. Forty per cent of Viennese students are Muslims. In neighbourhoods dominated by the Islamic community, this number is often doubled. Wiesinger’s study met with interest from the public, as the high, for Austrian conditions, circulation of 28,000 copies confirms. Many people praised the author for her courage in talking about emerging problems, while others criticized her, pointing to the unjust generalizations she made. In tracing Wiesinger’s argument, it should be pointed out that it is uneven, that there are inconsistencies and that the book bears the “stamp” of the social-democratic camp with which the author identifies herself.
