| 1. Luif, Paul. "Arnold Schwarzenegger in Austrian Media and Politics. Capital Punishment as a Contested Transatlantic Issue" Paper presented at the annual meeting of the International Studies Association, Town & Country Resort and Convention Center, San Diego, California, USA, Mar 22, 2006 <Not Available>. 2009-11-29 <http://www.allacademic.com/meta/p99933_index.html>Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript
Abstract: The fact that a European holds a major political position is by far too little appreciated in European but also American political science. This short paper tries to remedy this situation a bit. It first gives a few paragraphs of background information on Austria. It then deals in general terms with the death penalty, the focus of this paper. A few remarks deal with anti-Americanism.
The fourth section describes the upbringing of Schwarzenegger in Austria and the influences it had on his further career. Capital punishment as it is implemented in California under Governor Schwarzenegger and its repercussions in Austria are the topic of the more extensive fifth section. The concluding remarks show the (missed) opportunities for transatlantic relations concerning Schwarzenegger. |
