Red Vienna: experiment in working-class culture, 1919-1934
Abstract
This study attempts to bring to life the Vienna of the 1920s, a city in which the municipal socialist government not only attempted to create a democratic alternative to the Bolshevik experiment in Russia, but also launched a massive programme to reshape working-class culture. From public housing, welfare, health and education programmes that transformed the face of the city to socialist festivals, parades and sports events, the Austro-Marxist leadership tried to create a new working class, reaching even into the most private spheres of all: the family and sexuality. The text examines how it was a project doomed to failure, largely because of the socialist elite's failure to understand existing working-class subcultures, and because of its disregard for workers' tastes and cultural pursuits.

The Red Vienna politicians' building of the Karl-Marx-Hof and the other Gemeindebauten was not a mistake in illicitly intervening in a market that would be better left in the private domain.
“When the politicians of Red Vienna built the magnificent Karl-Marx-Hof housing development in the Geiligenstadt district, and built the other Gemeindebauten in their city (Gruber 1991;Blau 1999; Haderer 2023), they were not (pace Heath) making a mistake in illicitly intervening in a market that would be better left in the private domain.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
