  This book examines an Austrian identity based on a civic, rather than an ethnic conception of a national community. It analyzes the ideas of Joseph Samuel Bloch, an Austrian Jewish writer and politician, and compares them to those of other Austrian political thinkers of various ethnic and political backgrounds in order to discover how these individuals imagined a supraethnic Austrian nation.
