On 21 April 1970 - exactly 50 years ago - SP\u00d6 Chairman Bruno Kreisky was appointed Federal Chancellor of the Republic of Austria by Federal President Franz Jonas.
\n<\/strong>
\nThe \"Kreisky I Cabinet\" was able to begin its work. Initially as a minority government, it was given an absolute majority by the voters from the next elections in October 1971.
\nBruno Kreisky was to remain head of government for 13 years: a time of opening up the country, many far-reaching reforms and an active foreign policy.<\/p>\n

Home affairs journalist Christoph Kotanko<\/strong> was 16 years old when Bruno Kreisky became Federal Chancellor. He experienced the Kreisky era as a pupil, student and then as a journalist. His book is an invitation to rediscover or rediscover Kreisky.
\nChristoph Kotanko has now Carl Ueberreuter Publishing House<\/a>, (Vienna 2020, ISBN: 978-3-8000-7746-5) <\/strong>the book Cult Chancellor Kreisky. Man and myth <\/strong>with a foreword by Heinz Fischer.<\/p>\n

Heinz Fischer<\/strong>, Bruno Kreisky's companion for many years, recalls the special moments 50 years ago and Bruno Kreisky's time in government in a video.<\/p>\n
