Political resistance was in Carinthia years is quite an minority program. In recent months this has changed, protest seems slowly to be acceptable again. On social networking sites, petitions and citizens' movements, a new political culture is required in the country.
Kitted with speakers, green whistles and banners about 250 people gathered in front of the state government to deal with after a brief rally a catcalls and boos to march through the city center of Klagenfurt for Landhaushof. "Turn right forbidden", "FPK-ÖVP draws from our last shirt" or "With you goes Carinthia bust "is written on the posters. For more than three months in Klagenfurt on a weekly basis from the Greens initiated Friday demos. "It's the only way to express its dissatisfaction, is the increasing pressure in the country's policy will hopefully make a difference," says Martina Wiltschnig, District Councillor in Wernberg. Under the motto "We go until they go" call for protesters of all ages for the resignation of the government and the abolition of the proportional representation system. Josef Götz, shoemakers, and Greens council in Bad Bleiberg is since the first protest march: "We have for years on cronyism and failures in Carinthia attention. Beautiful displays slowly that we were right. "
had in recent years, a strange apathy in Carinthia made wide, obviously the system of Provincial Governor Joerg Haider omnipresent minimizes the political opposition and pushed to the edge of the public perception . The spiritual surrender of the dissidents? "Haider rule practiced a kind of charisma and ruled the country like a feudal lord," the sociologist Helmut Guggenberger says of the University of Klagenfurt, "was criticized by many things are blocked and not come to light." The performance of Haider's imitators in the state government, Increase in party support in a secret operation, party split on the right, Notverstaatlichung Hypo and the disastrous financial situation now lead to a renaissance of the delicate culture of protest in the country. The sociologist sees this "excitement of the civil society as understood democratic development," it is amazing that so late a little stirred. In view of the worsening political situation is now "for many citizens the frustration replaced by active protest".
Resistance to the political situation is increasingly formed on social networks. The primary goal of the initiative NeuwahlJetzt.at, which has so far collected almost 2,700 signatures online, an immediate end to the FPK / ÖVP coalition. Over 3,800 members are now stocked in the Facebook group "We are Carinthia! We are the people! ". The state government is denied the right to represent the people further. Founded by Green politician Matt Köchl counts now Stefan Petzner to the members. Petzner and the remaining colleagues in the BZÖ try the former party colleagues with a list of demands for a political change of force. In the People's Party won a protest group against internal party chairman Josef Martinz and detention in the coalition formed.

"It's about a successful future of the country, to visions, to new transparency in the country." The alliance will position itself as a "strongly supported by the citizens' protest movement," because many people want to be taken seriously and to strengthen participate in political life. " To move to the established parties to rethink, a candidate is taken in the parliamentary elections in 2014 whereas
Even the self-appointed Carinthian carnival General Reinhard Eberhart -. Not thus far been compared by critical remarks politicians of all Couleur noticed - discovered his revolutionary streak. Eberhart described as a function of the proponent of the striking platform, "The new Carinthia", which the Carinthian policy as "stupid" "goofy," and "vergaunert. "The movement is so strong be that the parties themselves change. Otherwise we will force a referendum on new elections, "said Eberhart. For early June in Villach planned a festival against corruption, political impotence and stupidity.
