Description Liberty represented a crucial topic for Austrian social democrats of the 19th and 20th century, the request for „workers liberation“ took the leading position in party political programs and election declarations. But the social-democratic understanding of liberty was highly inspired by Marxism and it was therefore strongly different from the understanding of this phenomenon within classical liberalism. Liberty in this case meant not just the acquisition of political rights but primarily escape from economic dependence. Investigation and analysis of social-democratic concepts of freedom and liberty is the main goal of my paper.
