title: Einflüsse des Alters auf ausgewählte Aspekte der Erstvaterschaft
Creators: name: Sarg, Claudia
Year: 2012

description: Das Ziel dieser Arbeit liegt in der Beschreibung der aktuellen Situation von Erstvaterschaft sowie einer Darstellung von charakteristischen und fallweise differen-tiellen Erlebens- und Verhaltenskomponenten in diesem Zusammenhang. Die vorliegende Arbeit soll zudem auch eine Ergänzung zur Diplomarbeit „Späte Mutterschaft“ (Ranner, 2010) darstellen. Nach Aufnahme und Beschreibung der in der Literatur präsenten Belege historischer und aktueller Aspekte von Vaterschaft im theoretischen Teil, erfolgt im empirischen Teil die Beschreibung der – in Anlehnung an die Untersuchung „Späte Mutterschaft“ nach Ranner (2010) – durchgeführten Online-Fragebogenuntersuchung. Befragt wurden 108 Väter erstgeborener Kinder im Kindergartenalter, von ca. 2.5 Jahren, bis maximal Schuleintrittsalter (ca. 7 Jahre). Zusammenfassend lässt sich somit zu den gestellten Forschungsfragen feststellen, dass das Alter der Väter bei Geburt des ersten Kindes keine relevante Rolle bei der Erziehung und bei der Wahrnehmung des Kindes spielt, und auch keine altersbezogenen Unterschiede in Demographie, gesundheitlicher und finanzieller Situation sowie bei Inanspruchnahme von Karenz gefunden wurden. Für Teilaspekte des Verhaltens zum Kind und bei der Wahrnehmung der Vaterrolle gibt es allerdings Alterseffekte zu berichten: die älteren Väter binden das Kind bei Stress weniger ein und reagieren bei Misserfolg des Kindes weniger positiv, ausserdem sind sie insgesamt im Vergleich zu jüngeren Vätern unzufriedener mit ihrer Rolle als Vater.

description: Within the framework of the modified geodetic brane gravity, conformed by the Regge-Teitelboim model and enhanced with a linear term in the extrinsic curvature of the brane, the possibility that under an FRW geometry this theory emulates the so-called dark energy is discussed. The cosmological behavior of this model displays a self-(non-self)-accelerated expansion of this universe which is caused by a combination of usual matter and gravitational geometric effects controlled by a $β$ parameter that accompanies the correction $K$ term. Indeed, the self-accelerated branch, provided by the trace $K$ model raises the question of whether the extrinsic curvature correction terms might be suitable for dark energy candidates. We discuss the analytical expression obtained for $\rd$ in addition to the main cosmological parameters such as the state parameter $ω_{\text{\tiny eff}}$ and the deceleration parameter $q$. Moreover, when we call for the contribution of dark radiation-like energy to be switched off, $\Odr \to 0$, we find the same acceleration behavior, as well as the same dark energy content provided by the DGP theory. The relationship of our findings to the analysis for $\rd$ performed by Davidson and Gurwich within the unified brane cosmology is briefly discussed.

description: Deep generative models have demonstrated the ability to create realistic audiovisual content, sometimes driven by domains of different nature. However, smooth temporal dynamics in video generation is a challenging problem. This work focuses on generic sound-to-video generation and proposes three main features to enhance both image quality and temporal coherency in generative adversarial models: a triple sound routing scheme, a multi-scale residual and dilated recurrent network for extended sound analysis, and a novel recurrent and directional convolutional layer for video prediction. Each of the proposed features improves, in both quality and coherency, the baseline neural architecture typically used in the SoTA, with the video prediction layer providing an extra temporal refinement.

Reassessing Rousseau's representation of antiquity
Creators: name: Champy, Flora
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2018

description: This dissertation conducts a systematic examination of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s representation of Antiquity and provides a new interpretation of its meaning. Rousseau’s lifelong interest in ancient Greece and Rome has so far been interpreted mainly as a personal myth, rooted in his emotional identification with examples of civic virtue. Challenging this interpretation, I analyze Rousseau’s vision of Antiquity as a carefully constructed representation that seeks to answer key questions of early modern political thought. As he constructs his political system, Rousseau considers ancient material through a complex web of mediations, which alter his representation of Antiquity. The admiration for great men inherited from his childhood reading of Plutarch quickly turns into the construction of dynamic political models. Rousseau draws on ancient historical examples, as well as on Plato’s and Aristotle’s political philosophy, to articulate his own definition of key modern political concepts such as sovereignty and body politic. In Rousseau’s view, ancient cities were politically successful because they fully understood the fundamental connection between anthropology and politics, placing the moral education of the citizens at the core of political action. Studying examples of ancient cities thus becomes indispensable not only to define a truly legitimate political structure, but also to design methods and practices to make it last over time. In this respect, the Roman Republic, whose institutions more successfully faced the challenge of history, serves as a more significant political model than Sparta. Reassessing Rousseau’s representation of Antiquity thus allows us to reevaluate the place of government in his political system.

Type locality. USA, California: San Diego, near a jetty (Fraser 1925).
Current status. Species inquirenda.
Remarks. In describing Coryne corrugata, Fraser (1925) did not designate name-bearing types of the species. Specimens considered parts of the type series exist at CAS (CAS-IZ 21 798.00) and in the Fraser Hydroid Collection at the RBCM (BCPM 976-00128-001). The CAS material is in good condition, and the best specimen available from this syntype series is designated here as the lectotype (CAS-IZ 227311). The material at the RBCM may have been dry sometime in the past (Schuchert 2001b), but is in fair condition, with some of the hydranths still being reasonably well preserved; the fragments constitute paralectotypes.
Fraser (1925) described C. corrugata on the basis of infertile material. For that reason, Schuchert (2001b) included it in a group of “problematic or indeterminable species.” Nevertheless, he maintained that material identified as Coryne corrigata (sic) by Berrill (1953: figs. 12B, C) was likely identified correctly. Berrill provided no information about the source of his hydroid other than referring to it as “… Coryne corrigata Fraser of the Pacific coast….”. Coryne corrugata is a species needing further study.

description: Die vorliegende quantitative, empirische Arbeit untersuchte das Ausschusswesen des österreichischen Nationalrates in der XXI. Gesetzgebungsperiode. Aufbauend auf dem Kontext, in welchem eine historische Betrachtung des Parlamentarismus in Österreich, eine detaillierte Beschreibung des österreichischen Nationalrats hinsichtlich seiner Strukturen sowie eine Darstellung der XXI. Gesetzgebungsperiode gegeben wurde, ist eine Netzwerkanalyse des Ausschusswesens aller ständigen Ausschüsse durchgeführt worden. Dazu wurde ein Gesamtnetzwerk, basierend auf den Ausschussmitgliedschaften der Mandatare, erstellt und dieses in Cluster eingeteilt. Anschließend wurde der Frage nachgegangen, ob die strukturelle Einbettung der Akteure bzw. der Abgeordneten die parlamentarische Arbeit beeinflusst. Dazu wurde anhand der Netzwerktheorie von Ronald S. Burt und dessen Ausführungen zu strukturellen Löchern, welche eng mit dem Begriff des Sozialkapitals verknüpft sind, der Versuch unternommen, diesen Einfluss zu messen. Hierzu wurde eine zweistufige Erfolgsskala erstellt, welche Gesetzes- sowie Entschließungsanträge der XXI. Gesetzgebungsperiode der Abgeordneten zur Grundlage hat, und mit netzwerktheoretischen Faktoren, im Sinne von Burt, korreliert. Abschließend fand eine Analyse bzw. Diskussion der Ergebnisse statt. Hierbei wurde deutlich, dass keine strukturellen Einflussfaktoren nach Ronald S. Burt auf das parlamentarische Instrument von Anträgen vorliegen. Die Zugehörigkeit zu einer Partei bzw. in weiterer folge zu Regierung oder Opposition stellte sich als größter Einflussfaktor heraus.

description: Site-specific weather forecasts are essential to accurate prediction of power demand and are consequently of great interest to energy operators. However, weather forecasts from current numerical weather prediction (NWP) models lack the fine-scale detail to capture all important characteristics of localised real-world sites. Instead they provide weather information representing a rectangular gridbox (usually kilometres in size). Even after post-processing and bias correction, area-averaged information is usually not optimal for specific sites. Prior work on site optimised forecasts has focused on linear methods, weighted consensus averaging, time-series methods, and others. Recent developments in machine learning (ML) have prompted increasing interest in applying ML as a novel approach towards this problem. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of optimising forecasts at sites by adopting the popular machine learning model gradient boosting decision tree, supported by the Python version of the XGBoost package. Regression trees have been trained with historical NWP and site observations as training data, aimed at predicting temperature and dew point at multiple site locations across Australia. We developed a working ML framework, named 'Multi-SiteBoost' and initial testing results show a significant improvement compared with gridded values from bias-corrected NWP models. The improvement from XGBoost is found to be comparable with non-ML methods reported in literature. With the insights provided by SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), this study also tests various approaches to understand the ML predictions and increase the reliability of the forecasts generated by ML.

description: Introduction The necessity of culturally competent Internet Cancer Support Groups (ICSGs) for ethnic minorities has recently been highlighted in order to increase its attractiveness and usage. The purpose of this study was to determine the preliminary efficacy of a culturally tailored registered-nurse-moderated ICSG for Asian American breast cancer survivors in enhancing the women's breast cancer survivorship experience. Methods The study included two phases: (a) a usability test and an expert review; and (b) a randomized controlled pilot intervention study. The usability test was conducted among five Asian American breast cancer survivors using a one-month online forum, and the expert review was conducted among five experts using the Cognitive Walkthrough method. The randomized controlled pilot intervention study (a pre-test and post-test design) was conducted among 65 Asian American breast cancer survivors. The data were analysed using content analysis and descriptive and inferential statistics including the repeated ANOVA. Results All users and experts positively evaluated the program and provided their suggestions for the display, educational contents, and user-friendly structure. There were significant positive changes in the support care needs and physical and psychological symptoms ( p < 0.05) of the control group. There were significant negative changes in the uncertainty level of the intervention group ( p < 0.10). Controlling for background and disease factors, the intervention group showed significantly greater improvements than the control group in physical and psychological symptoms and quality of life ( p < 0.10). Discussion The findings supported the positive effects of ICSGs on support care needs, psychological and physical symptoms, and quality of life.

description: Accurate prediction of metabolism is a significant outstanding challenge in toxicology. The best predictions are based on experimental data from in vitro systems using primary hepatocytes. The predictivity of the primary hepatocyte-based culture systems, however, is still limited due to well-known phenotypic instability and rapid decline of metabolic competence within a few hours. Dynamic flow bioreactors for three-dimensional cell cultures are thought to be better at recapitulating tissue microenvironments and show potential to improve in vivo extrapolations of chemical or drug toxicity based on in vitro test results. These more physiologically relevant culture systems hold potential for extending metabolic competence of primary hepatocyte cultures as well. In this investigation, we used computational fluid dynamics to determine the optimal design of a flow-based hepatocyte culture system for evaluating chemical metabolism in vitro. The main design goals were (1) minimization of shear stress experienced by the cells to maximize viability, (2) rapid establishment of a uniform distribution of test compound in the chamber, and (3) delivery of sufficient oxygen to cells to support aerobic respiration. Two commercially available flow devices - RealBio® and QuasiVivo® (QV) - and a custom developed fluidized bed bioreactor were simulated, and turbulence, flow characteristics, test compound distribution, oxygen distribution, and cellular oxygen consumption were analyzed. Experimental results from the bioreactors were used to validate the simulation results. Our results indicate that maintaining adequate oxygen supply is the most important factor to the long-term viability of liver bioreactor cultures. Cell density and system flow patterns were the major determinants of local oxygen concentrations. The experimental results closely corresponded to the in silico predictions. Of the three bioreactors examined in this study, we were able to optimize the experimental conditions for long-term hepatocyte cell culture using the QV bioreactor. This system facilitated the use of low system volumes coupled with higher flow rates. This design supports cellular respiration by increasing oxygen concentrations in the vicinity of the cells and facilitates long-term kinetic studies of low clearance test compounds. These two goals were achieved while simultaneously keeping the shear stress experienced by the cells within acceptable limits.

description: Recent advancements in diffusion models have shown remarkable proficiency in editing 2D images based on text prompts. However, extending these techniques to edit scenes in Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) is complex, as editing individual 2D frames can result in inconsistencies across multiple views. Our crucial insight is that a NeRF scene's geometry can serve as a bridge to integrate these 2D edits. Utilizing this geometry, we employ a depth-conditioned ControlNet to enhance the coherence of each 2D image modification. Moreover, we introduce an inpainting approach that leverages the depth information of NeRF scenes to distribute 2D edits across different images, ensuring robustness against errors and resampling challenges. Our results reveal that this methodology achieves more consistent, lifelike, and detailed edits than existing leading methods for text-driven NeRF scene editing.

The best available specimen, on the second of these slides (BCPM 976-00129-002), is selected here as the lectotype and is assigned a new catalogue number (RBCM 976-00129-003). Three fragments of colonies exist on the slide, with the lectotype being in the middle.
Earlier, Schuchert (2001b) examined the slide bearing the lectotype and provided a re-description of the species. It was included by him in a group that included C. hincksii Bonnevie, 1898 and C. sagamiensis Hirohito, 1988. The species has subsequently been reported from China (Gao 1956; Xu et al. 2014) and from Race Rocks, British Columbia (Brinckmann-Voss 1996).

Furthermore, more than 30 specimens were extracted from various soil samples from A’ali-Kola, Zar’rin-Abad forests and agricultural and horticultural areas around Lak-Dasht village, Mazandaran province, during spring of 2023 were collected by E. Yahyapour.
 World distribution and Host specificity – The species recorded from three continents (Asia, Europe and North America) and has least host specificity among all caraboacarid mites (Katlav et. al. 2015). Until now, various carabid beetles, including Amara spp., Harpalus spp., Calosoma spp., Anisodactylus signatus (Panzer, 1796), Diachromus germanus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Col.: Carabidae) and Cicindela (Cylindera) germanica (Linnaeus, 1758) (Col.: Cicindelidae) have been recorded as hosts for C. stammeri (Rahiminejad et al. 2023). Also, Trach and Khausov (2012) surprisingly reported C. stammeri under elytra and on the wings of Ablattaria laevigata (Fabricius, 1775) (Col.: Silphidae) (Rahiminejad and Hajiqanbar 2020; Rahiminejad et al. 2023).

description: BACKGROUND & AIMS: Renal clearance is the major elimination pathway for sofosbuvir (SOF). We assessed the safety and efficacy of SOF-containing regimens in patients with varying baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).
METHODS: HCV-TARGET database is a multicentre, longitudinal 'real-world' treatment cohort.
RESULTS: A total of 1789 patients [genotypes 1 (72%), 2 (17%) 3 (9%), 4-6 (2%)] had baseline eGFR determination: 73 with eGFR≤45 (18 with eGFR≤30, 5 on dialysis) were compared to 1716 with eGFR>45 ml/min/1.73 m(2) . Patients with baseline eGFR≤45 vs. >45 differed in being female (55% vs. 36%), age ≥65 years (24% vs. 16%), Black race (22% vs. 12%), having cirrhosis with decompensation (73% vs. 24%) and being post-transplant (49% vs. 10%), all P < 0.05. All patients with eGFR≤45 were treated with SOF 400 mg/day (including those on haemodialysis) and had median starting ribavirin (RBV) dose of 800 mg (IQR: 400-1200). Sustained virologic response (SVR) frequencies were similar across eGFR groups, ranging from 82-83%. Patients with eGFR ≤45 more frequently experienced anaemia, worsening renal function and serious AEs (all P < 0.05), and these associations persisted when limiting analysis to RBV-free regimens. Patients with baseline eGFR≤30 and eGFR 31-45 had similar frequencies of efficacy and safety outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS: Sustained viral clearance was achieved in 83% of patients with renal impairment (eGFR ≤45 ml/min/1.73 m(2) ) treated with SOF-containing regimens. However, these patients had higher rates of anaemia, worsening renal dysfunction and serious adverse events regardless of use of RBV. Patient with renal impairment require close monitoring and should be treated by providers extensively experienced with SOF-containing regimens.

Αcaulidae Fraser, 1924b: 173.
Current status. Valid.
Remarks. Stimpson (1853) described and illustrated Acaulis primarius, a remarkable new genus and species of solitary hydroid from Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick, Atlantic Canada. His polyp was unusual in having a very short, spike-shaped hydrocaulus beneath a large hydranth having scattered capitate tentacles and an irregular whorl of filiform tentacles at the base. Some early authors (e.g., Allman 1872) believed Stimpson’s hydroid constituted a hydranth that had detached from its stalk. Even though G.O. Sars (1874) subsequently described and accurately illustrated A. primarius from Lofoten, Norway, uncertainty persisted over the morphological structure of the species (e.g., Fewkes 1890; Dendy 1902; Fraser 1918c). Fraser (1924b) confirmed the morphology of its hydrocaulus, and established the family Acaulidae to accommodate the species.
The taxonomy of A. primarius has recently been reviewed by Schuchert (2006). As noted therein, two species were mistakenly included under that binomen by Stimpson (1853). However, Schuchert concluded that Allman (1872), in effect, had designated a lectotype (ICZN 74.5) by fixing its identity in conformity with that matching the longstanding concept of the species. That concept accords with the only illustration of A. primarius provided by Stimpson (1853, pl. 1, fig. 4). Type material of the species exists at the MCZ (Invertebrate Zoology Coel-162).

description: Despite recent advances in HIV prevention and treatment, high HIV incidence persists among people who inject drugs (PWID). Difficult legal and political environments and lack of services for PWID likely contribute to high HIV incidence. Some advocates question whether any HIV prevention research is ethically justified in settings where healthcare system fails to provide basic services to PWID and where implementation of research findings is fraught with political barriers. Ethical challenges in research with PWID include concern about whether research evidence will be translated into practice; concerns that research might exacerbate background risks; and ethical challenges regarding the standard of HIV prevention in research. While these questions arise in other research settings, for research with PWID, these questions are especially controversial. This paper analyses four ethical questions in determining whether research could be ethically acceptable: (1) Can researchers ensure that research does not add to the burden of social harms and poor health experienced by PWID? (2) Should research be conducted in settings where it is uncertain whether research findings will be translated into practice? (3) When best practices in prevention and care are not locally available, what standard of care and prevention is ethically appropriate? (4) Does the conduct of research in settings with oppressive policies constitute complicity? We outline specific criteria to address these four ethical challenges. We also urge researchers to join the call to action for policy change to provide proven safe and effective HIV prevention and harm reduction interventions for PWID around the world.
title: Braucht die EU einen Nachrichtendienst?

description: Die Europäische Union hat sich vorgenommen, in Zukunft neben ihrer wirtschaftlichen Stärke auch im sicherheitspolitischen Bereich die Rolle eines „Global Players“ einzunehmen. Hierfür wurden bereits einige Anstrengungen unternommen, um den notwendigen rechtlichen und strategischen Rahmen zu schaffen. Als Grundlage dienen GASP und ESVP. Auf diesen bauen dann das Haager Programm und die Europäische Sicherheitsstrategie auf. In der Feinabstimmung gibt es weitere Beschlüsse und Verträge, wie zum Beispiel den Vertrag von Maastricht oder den Vertrag von Amsterdam mit seinen inkludierten Petersberger Aufgaben für humanitäre Krisen. Um außenpolitisch wirksam zu werden, hat die EU auch schon operative Tools geschaffen, wie den Europäischen Auswärtigen Dienst, die EU-Battle-Groups oder das SitCen. Doch die Union stellt an sich selbst den Anspruch, hinkünftig rechtzeitig und, wenn möglich, präventiv auf anfallende Krisen zu reagieren. Dies ist aber nur möglich, wenn die Union und ihre Entscheidungsträger rechtzeitig und umfassend von einer sich bildenden Bedrohungslage oder Krise informiert werden. Ob dies derzeit in ausreichendem Maße geschieht und aufgrund der vorhandenen institutionellen Einrichtungen überhaupt möglich ist, wird in dieser Arbeit herausgearbeitet. Ob ein eigener Nachrichtendienst der EU als Lösung angesehen werden könnte, soll hier beantwortet werden.
description: While committed to maintaining its strong economic position, the European Union is also seeking to evolve into a global player in the area of security policy. Some steps have already been taken in order to create the necessary legal and strategic framework. The CFSP (Common Foreign and Security Policy) and the ESDP (European Security and Defence Policy) constitute the foundation. They provided the basis for the Hague Programme and the European Security Strategy. Subsequent fine-tuning resulted in further decisions and treaties such as the Treaty of Maastricht and the Treaty of Amsterdam including the Petersberg Tasks for humanitarian crises. With a view to increasing its latitude in foreign policy, the EU has also created operational tools, such as the European External Action Service, the EU Battle Groups or the SitCen. The European Union has made it a priority to enhance its ability to respond to crises promptly and – whenever possible – preventively. This, however, is only possible if the European Union and its decision-makers are informed swiftly and comprehensively of an emerging threat. In this treatise we examine whether this task is being adequately performed and whether it can even be done at all on the basis of the existing institutions. The question whether a dedicated EU intelligence service is a conceivable solution will be raised and an attempt shall be made to answer to it.
title: Die Kompetenz im schlussfolgernden Denken bei Studentinnen und Studenten zu Studienbeginn
Creators: name: Klopf, Melanie

description: Ziel dieser Studie war es, Übergänge im schlussfolgernden Denken zwischen dem konkreten und dem formalen Stadium nach Piaget bei Studienanfängerinnen und Studienanfängern zu identifizieren. Diese setzen sich aus 165 Psychologiestudierenden (w=123, m=42) und 322 Naturwissenschaftsstudierenden (w=164, m=158) zusammen. Durch die Vorgabe des SDV (Schlussfolgerndes Denken Verbal) und unter Anwendung von Mixed Rasch-Modellen konnten vier Klassen extrahiert werden, die sich sowohl qualitativ als auch quantitativ in ihren Kompetenzen zum schlussfolgernden Denken unterscheiden. Diese vier Klassen bilden analog einer Vorgängerstudie das konkrete Stadium, 2 Übergangsstadien und zusätzlich ein drittes fortgeschrittenes Übergangsstadium der kognitiven Entwicklung ab. Die Analysen zeigten, dass Naturwissenschaftsstudierende im Durchschnitt höhere Kompetenzen im schlussfolgernden Denken aufweisen als Psychologiestudierende. Die Inanspruchnahme von Studienberatung hatte keinen Einfluss auf die Passung zwischen Leistungs- und Anforderungsprofil bzgl. der Forderung nach Kompetenzen im schlussfolgernden Denken bei Studierenden.
description: The purpose of this study was to identify transitions in reasoning that are situated between the concrete and the formal stadium postulated by Piaget in a sample of first year students. They consisted of 165 psychology (f=123, m=42) and 322 science students (f=164, m=158). Using SDV, a verbal reasoning test, and the application of Mixed-Rasch-Models led to the extraction of four classes, that differ both qualitatively and quantitatively in their reasoning skills. These four classes reproduce along the lines of a previous study the concrete stadium, two transitional stages and in addition a third advanced transitional stage in cognitive development. Analyses revealed, that on average reasoning skills are higher for science than for psychology students. Concerning the call for competence in reasoning with students, claiming Student Advisory Service had no influence on the match between performance in reasoning tasks and requirement profile.

title: Darstellungen von Endphaseverbrechen in Literatur und Film aus Österreich aus vergangenheitspolitischer Perspektive
Creators: name: Jiranek, Johanna
Year: 2012

description: Mit einer Kombination aus Ansätzen der kulturwissenschaftlichen Gedächtnistheorie und der Vergangenheitspolitik soll in dieser Arbeit die Frage beantwortet werden, welche vergangenheitspolitischen Narrative und Bilder über Endphaseverbrechen in Literatur und Film zur ‚Mühlviertler Hasenjagd‘ konstruiert werden und welche Funktion für das österreichische kulturelle Gedächtnis sie damit einnehmen. Endphaseverbrechen wurden am Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges vor den Augen und mit Hilfe der lokalen Bevölkerung begangen, weshalb sie eine spezifische Leerstelle im lokalen wie nationalen Gedächtnis darstellen. Denn die Erinnerung an sie hätte die Opferthese bedroht, die bis in die 1980er Jahre nationale Basiserzählung Österreichs war. Die meisten der Arbeiten entstanden in den 1980ern und 90ern von AutorInnen und einem Regisseur, die allesamt der Nachkriegsgeneration angehören. Indem die Werke entweder einen Beitrag zum traumatischen Opfergedächtnis leisten, Täternarrative gestalten oder sich auf den Widerstand konzentrieren, zeigen sie die Bandbreite möglicher Verhaltensweisen auf und setzen Anstöße, um das gespaltene Opfer- und Tätergedächtnis wieder zusammenzuführen.
description: By bringing together theoretical approaches of memory studies and politics of the past, the depictions of final phase crimes in Austrian literature and film, exemplified by the ‘Mühlviertler Hasenjagd’, are examined in this paper. Those crimes were committed with the help of the local population during the final phase of Second World War. Since remembering them would have challenged the ‘victim thesis’ that predominated the official discourse until the 1980s, they represented a specific gap in Austrian local and national memory. The question is asked if the cultural representations provide counter-narratives to the official discourse of the past or if they perpetuate it. What is therefore their function in cultural memory? Most of the works were published or released in the 1980s and 90s by authors and a director of the post-war generation. By either constructing a traumatic victims’ memory, a perpetrator narrative or concentrating on the resistance, they show the different choices people had. All of them challenge the ‘victim thesis’ and therefore function as a critical reminder of the past.
