In just thirteen years, Jörg Haider has brought his party FPÖ from being the country's smallest to becoming the second largest. In the autumn parliamentary elections, the right-wing populist party received 27 percent of the vote and thus took place in the government. The EU responded by imposing sanctions on Austria. How, then, can a man who has been rewritten for his statements about "Hitler's good labor market policy" and "honest SS men" become so popular? Gellert Tamas has traveled around the Kingdom of Haider to find the answer.
