Young People’s Party criticizes the actions of the University of Leoben and sees basic democratic values at risk
Vienna (OTS) – The rector of the University of Leoben made people sit up and take notice with the proposal to ban academic connections from events at the university. In addition to fraternities, the blanket ban would also affect Catholic associations of the Austrian Cartel Association, which was heavily active in resistance once morest the Nazi regime, as well as a charitable women’s association.
“Banishing clubs because they don’t correspond to your own world view is not an option in a democracy. If these are also organizations that actively resisted the Nazi regime, there is a doubly pale followingtaste. For us as JVP it is clear: Cancel culture has no place at Austria’s universities!” says Dominik Berger.
