Австрийские Федеральные театры как объект культурной политики в 1918-1945 гг.: выживание, приспособление, культурный капитал
The Austrian Federal Theatres are investigated as the largest organizational unity within Austrian cultural politics from a viewpoint of its conceptualization, implementation, and analysis. The longevity of this theatre conglomerate is better explained by path dependence and predominant patterns of thinking within Austria’s bureaucracy, cultural milieu and society than as a genuine strife for economic efficiency. In the first half of the 20th century, the Federal Theatres survived two world wars, a revolution, an economic crisis, and the establishment of two dictatorships. Theatres’ significant cultural capital, conservative tendencies in management, and the ability to absorb and neutralize changes in economic and political conditions helped theatres to overcome the vicissitudes of short-term conjuncture. Cultural capital has consistently prevailed over economic and political circumstances.
