The Edition of the Minutes of the Cabinet Meetings of the first government of Leopold Figl is an important contribution to the history of the early years of Austria’s Second Republic, including the reconstruction of the state and its political components after World War II. Volume 10 of the Edition encompasses the minutes of meeting No. 106 of April 6, 1948 to meeting No. 115 of June 8, 1948 as well as the accompanying minutes of the Wirtschaftliches Ministerkomitee from the same time period. In terms of content, the topics discussed by the members of government cover a broad spectrum, including matters of foreign, domestic and economic policy as well as the country’s reconstruction and the difficult relations between the Austrian government and the four great powers; particularly prominent is the pervasive problem of securing basic levels of nutrition for the Austrian population, especially in Vienna, as well as the ongoing negotiations concerning the State Treaty. The volume documents the steps undertaken by the Austrian government toward re-transforming Austria into a sovereign state and integrating it into the international community.
