AUSTRIA INSIGHT Austria Insight by Karin Sawetz: Will the economy of the country be directed by the legislation backwards or will the people get the chance to create for their country a better future? When authorities proclaim "comeback" in relation to economy and labor, they might mean workforces are worth less than before people came into a situation which has thrown them out of the market. People who are over longer time without a job can theoretically regardless of their qualifications being employed after the lowest collective agreement. This is a common practice set out in law and applied in agreement with the social partners (employers and employee representatives). Austria is now over more than a year in the situation of more or less strict lockdowns. This means that many Austrians are 'long-time unemployed'...

AUSTRIA INSIGHT Triumph of diligence, unconditional basic income, predictably unpredictable future,... are topics of three highlights of the upcoming Wiener Festwochen (starting in mid-May 2021)
The programme of the upcoming Wiener Festwochen is online! It's the 70th edition of the festival which was re-organised after World War II in 1951. Fashion.at navigated through the online programme via calendar which starts with events like the anniversary concert or the 'Festzug' by dancer, performance artist Florentina Holzinger and musician Soap&Skin on 14 May in front of the Vienna City Hall at the Rathausplatz. The 'Festzug' references the early beginnings of the Wiener Festwochen in 1929 before the reorganisation in 1951. In 1929, a pageant of trades (in German 'Gewerbefestzug') happened during the Wiener Festwochen for honoring handicrafts. The artist was inspired by the historical event, where labour and dance were linked together, and today's society. At Florentina Holzinger's 'Festzug', human bodies and machines seem to exist already in a symbiosis...
