| | Galicia (Central Europe) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Galicia was subject to the Austrian part of the Dual Monarchy, but the Galician Sejm and provincial administration had extensive privileges and prerogatives, especially in education, culture, and local affairs. |  | | As Germany viewed Galicia as already aryanized and civilised, the Galicians escaped the true nature of German intentions that most of other Ukrainians put up with. |  | | Together with the eastern Galician conservative Polish landowners and aristocracy called the "Podolians", they gained a political ascendency in Galicia which lasted to 1914. |

 | | In the new, nationally determined Central Europe of the interwar period, which cut across all the inter-national links which had bound the region's Jewish communities together, it was much more difficult to see the Jews as part of the nations' history, and the net effect was that they were excluded from those national histories. |  | | Central Europe lost its Jews, but many Central European Jews carried on their lives and careers, and their influence, not in Central Europe, but in America, Britain, Palestine and in other countries of the West. |  | | According to this argument, then, the Czechs, a Central European people if there ever was one, are not Western because they are Catholics, as Kundera would have it' but because they were Protestants suppressed by Catholics. |

| | Re-ordering Europes Eastern Frontier |
 | | Galicia is thus remembered as "the last Europe", a multi-national cosmos swept away in the chaos of the two world wars and the consequent imposition of categorical choices of language, nationality and ideological bloc. |  | | Galicia, too, was born of myth and from myth would rise again. |  | | Proponents of nostalgia for Habsburg Galicia do not see their yearnings running counter to the respective contemporary national aspirations, just as the Galician conservatives love of Austria during the period of provincial autonomy 1869-1918 was never conceived in opposition to Polish, Jewish or Ruthenian national aspirations (Szul 1996). |

 | | Centralized bureaucratic states grew in size and influence as they ate away at the geographically dispersed pockets of political and economic power that characterized Europe in medieval times. |  | | The key is to see the current transition in Central Europe in light of its long-term, on-going transformation from a collection of agrarian societies under dynastic rule to modern industrialized societies within the European states system. |  | | French indicative planning and the Swedish welfare state typify the "mixed" capitalist framework of economic growth in Western Europe in the post-World War II period. |

| | The Peoples of East Central Europe |
 | | Hungary& case is typical of the close connection between the domestic problems of the East Central European nations and foreign politics, and for defeated Hungary it was harder than for any other country to combine her efforts toward reconstruction with a well-balanced conduct of external affairs. |  | | Neither in their case nor in the others where democracy went through more or less acute crises in the brief independence period can the general record of that period be questioned merely because all these countries, whatever their constitutional development had been, were not strong enough to defend their freedom against overwhelming forces. |  | | That terminology, however, did not fail to produce a certain impression in the Western world which was left under the illusion that the Soviet Union alone had solved the problem of the coexistence of numerous racial and linguistic groups in one body politic and had created an unusually successful form of federalism. |

 | | East Germany, on the other hand, was from 1949–1990 a loyal member of the Warsaw Pact, but would now rather be seen as the inheritor of Protestant Prussian culture than of Catholic Central Europe. |  | | Following World War II, large parts of Europe that were culturally and historically Western became part of the Eastern bloc, which effectively neutralized the concept of Central Europe. |  | | Following the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and the end of the Cold War, this distinction has again come into use, often to cover those countries that had been Warsaw Pact members but are now members of NATO and the European Union. |

 | | It is a part of Poland that — once inhabited by Poles, Ukrainians, and Jews — suddenly became homogenous after the war. |  | | Tales of Galicia, by Andrzej Stasiuk, is a book of stories about a forsaken village in southern Poland after the end of the world — or is it only after a week's drinking or a sleepless night's remembering? |  | | It is not at all a stretch to say that Andrzej Stasiuk is to Eastern European literature what Borges and Marquez are to the literature of the southern American latitudes³a voice of unique, tanscendent quality and supra-regional pertinence. |
