What is the organization abbreviated IKG that represents those who practice Judaism in Austria?
Israelitische Kultusgemeinde Wien The Israelitische Kultusgemeinde Wien (IKG) (Vienna Israelite Community) is the body that represents Vienna’s Orthodox Jewish community. Today, the IKG has around 7000 members. Throughout history, it has represented almost all of Austria's Jews, whose numbers are sufficient to form communities in only a few other cities in Austria.
Federal State of Austria The Federal State of Austria (Austrian German: "Bundesstaat Österreich " ; colloquially known as the "Ständestaat ", "Corporate State") was a continuation of the First Austrian Republic between 1934 and 1938 when it was a one-party state led by the clerico-fascist Fatherland Front. The "Ständestaat " concept, derived from the notion of "Stände " ("estates" or "corporations"), was propaganda advocated by leading regime politicians such as Engelbert Dollfuss and Kurt Schuschnigg. The result was an authoritarian government based on a mix of conservative Catholic and Italian Fascist influences.
