Diskussionswürdige Ehrungen | Honors worthy of discussion

The critical critical review of the University of Vienna's honors practice to date in 2022/23 was based on the following definition of “honors worthy of discussion (diskussionswürdig)”:

"Honors of persons who have rather formally supported ideologies or functionaries* who have emerged through anti-Semitic, racist, fascist content or have propagated prejudices towards group-related misanthropy (such as simple NSDAP members without further functions and public commitment) are considered worthy of discussion"

From today's perspective, 39 people who received a total of 56 honors were classified as “worthy of discussion” (the number of honorees differs from the number of honors due to seven double honors, two triple honors and two quadruple honors).

These are distributed across eleven faculties and centers of the University of Vienna, with ten honorees or 15 honors being awarded by the former Faculty of Medicine/current Medical University of Vienna (see chart).
