Political career

1981 began his political and professional career with the SPÖ as a secretary. From 1990 to 1999 he worked as an employee of the Chamber of Labor and Employees for Lower Austria . In 1999 he became regional manager of the SPÖ Lower Austria and 2000 federal manager of the SPÖ before he was elected SPÖ federal party chairman in the same year.

In addition, he was Federal Chairman of the Socialist Youth (SJ) from 1984 to 1990 and Vice-President of the Socialist Youth International (IUSY) from 1985 to 1989 . In 1989 he also held the position of Vice President of the Socialist International (SI). From 1990 to 2000 Gusenbauer was district party chairman of the SPÖ Melk and has been city party chairman of the SPÖ Ybbs an der Donau since 1991, member of the state party executive committee of SPÖ Lower Austria , member of the state party presidium of SPÖ Lower Austria, member of the Austrian delegation to the parliamentary assembly of the Council of Europe since 1991 and chairman of the social committee of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe 1995–98. From 2000 to 2008 he was the SPÖ federal party chairman , from 2000 to 2007 he was the chairman of the Social Democratic Parliamentary Club , in which Josef Cap was meanwhile acting as the club's executive chairman.

In his function as party chairman, Gusenbauer was considered controversial until the 2006 National Council election. In the National Council elections in 2002 , the SPÖ was able to win four seats (+ 3.36%) with Gusenbauer as the top candidate; the ÖVP (+ 15.39 / + 27 mandates) was much more successful, retained the majority of mandates together with the FPÖ (- 16.9% / - 34 mandates) and again formed a coalition government with it.

In the 2006 National Council election , the SPÖ was again the strongest party with 35.34% of the vote. On January 8, 2007, the SPÖ and ÖVP agreed to form a grand coalition . The coalition agreement was heavily criticized by parts of the party, some organizations close to the SPÖ and student representatives. The main focus of criticism was the insufficient consideration of the SPÖ election program, which concerns the originally announced exit from the Eurofighter purchase contract and the abolition of tuition fees , as well as the division of responsibilities between the SPÖ and ÖVP. The agreement was approved by the federal party executive with 75% approval.

The new German government under Chancellor Alfred Gusenbauer was on January 11, 2007 Federal President Heinz Fischer sworn in . During this state act, a demonstration with around 2,000 participants, mostly students, took place on Heldenplatz near the Federal Chancellery. The reason was the complete withdrawal of tuition fees promised by Gusenbauer during the election campaign, which was not taken into account in the coalition agreement, whereupon the ÖH chairwoman Barbara Blaha and the VSStÖ chairwoman Sylvia Kuba resigned from the SPÖ.

As the first political change in the red-black coalition under Alfred Gusenbauer, the legislative period for the National Council elections in Austria was extended from four to five years. This amendment to the constitution was possible because the coalition had the 2/3 majority required for decisions with constitutional status. The extension of the legislative period (starting with the next National Council election) came as a complete surprise because neither of the two coalition parties had even addressed it before. Furthermore, the grand coalition used its 2/3 majority to write the Austrian system of chambers into the constitution.

Right from the start, the grand coalition was marked by internal disputes between the two parties. The SPÖ accused the ÖVP several times of blocking, while the ÖVP accused the SPÖ of not adhering to the agreed coalition agreement. The first serious conflict between the coalition parties arose when the Constitutional Court ruled that the inheritance tax was unconstitutional and set a deadline for repairs until July 31, 2008. The SPÖ wanted to reform the inheritance tax, but kept it, the ÖVP pleaded for it to be abolished because it had promised it in the election campaign. As neither of the two parties abandoned their claim, if the cooperation was to continue, the only thing left was to let the repair deadline pass unused, so that the inheritance tax in Austria expired on July 31, 2008.

On February 24, 2008, after an unexpectedly strong rise in consumer prices, Alfred Gusenbauer announced in the ORF press hour, surprisingly and without informing the coalition partner, that he wanted to bring the tax reform planned in the coalition agreement for 2010 forward to at least 2009. In the same TV show, he declared that he wanted to give 100 euros each to those in need. Also in February 2008, the SPÖ, together with the FPÖ, the Greens and the BZÖ, against the express will of the coalition partner ÖVP, decided to set up a parliamentary committee of inquiry into allegations made by the former Interior Ministry official Herwig Haidinger against ÖVP politicians in the Interior Ministry.

Together with Infrastructure Minister Faymann, Gusenbauer informed the public in a letter to the editor of the Kronen Zeitung Hans Dichand on June 27, 2008 that the SPÖ believes that “future treaty changes (of the EU) that affect Austrian interests” should “be carried out by a referendum will be decided in Austria ”, she also wants to convince the coalition partner of this (which does not refer to the Lisbon Treaty, which has already been ratified by Parliament and Federal President Heinz Fischer). This also applies to a possible accession of Turkey to the European Union. In addition to this surprising repositioning of the SPÖ's content, the way in which the information was conveyed caused outrage both within the SPÖ and among its coalition partners and representatives of the EU.

After ÖVP boss and Vice Chancellor Wilhelm Molterer called for "immediate new elections" on the morning of July 7, 2008, thus initiating the end of the grand coalition, Gusenbauer no longer stood as the top candidate of the SPÖ.

On August 8, 2008, Werner Faymann took over the party chairmanship from Alfred Gusenbauer, and on December 2, 2008, Faymann also succeeded Gusenbauer as Federal Chancellor.

From 2000 to 2017 Alfred Gusenbauer was President of the Renner Institute , the political academy of the SPÖ.

criticism

Immediately after the formation of the SPÖ-ÖVP coalition government, Alfred Gusenbauer was mainly accused of not implementing SPÖ demands in the coalition program and relinquishing important ministries (such as the interior, foreign and finance ministries) to the political opponent ÖVP. This earned him the term "fallover" among critics.

Since Gusenbauer was unable to fulfill his election promise to abolish tuition fees, he suggested that the students should earn some extra money with tutoring and social services. He offered to give tutoring himself. Many students perceived this as a mockery.

His question before a party event, recorded by an ORF team and later shown in the television magazine Der Report , “And this will be something decent in Donawitz today, or the usual gossip?” Caused criticism from within the party and was immediately taken up by the coalition partner to make him stand out accuse.

Shortly after taking office as chairman of the SPÖ, he said of his MPs that a third could live up to his performance principle, a third should be forgotten and a third “re-socializable”. His statement on the occasion of a trip to South America also caused a lot of anger - especially among party friends: "Senators are hardly to be found at work here after 4:00 pm".

"Get what you are entitled to" (SPÖ slogan 2017)

In the course of leaving RHI AG , Gusenbauer was heavily criticized. "Everything runs according to the new selfish leitmotif of the SPÖ: 'I'll get what I'm due'", said small investor representative Wilhelm Rasinger, referring to a poster used by the SPÖ in the 2017 National Council election campaign . And the investor Rupert-Heinrich Staller: "Social democrats turn very quickly when they have neoliberal experiences and follow particular interests ".

The Romanian anti-corruption authority investigated in 2017 against the SPÖ advisor Tal Silberstein  and his partner Beny Steinmetz . They are said to have damaged the state of Romania with the equivalent of 150 million euros through property speculation. Arrest warrants were issued in March 2017 and the two were arrested in Israel. Alfred Gusenbauer has a managerial position at several of the two companies. According to media reports, Gusenbauer also had a direct business relationship with Steinmetz and Silberstein. Steinmetz was one of the most important donors for the Austrian real estate investor Rene Benko . Rene Benko has been advised by Gusenbauer for years. Gusenbauer also appears in the Paradise Papers .

In the course of FBI investigations under special investigator Robert Mueller against US President Donald Trump's former campaign manager Paul Manafort , it became known in 2018 that Manafort had planned to set up a lobbyist group in the service of former Ukrainian head of state Viktor Yanukovych in 2012, for which he had high-ranking Europeans Politicians wanted to win. You should comment positively on actions of the Ukrainian government under Yanukovych without the link becoming public. The group of these people called Manafort the Hapsburg Group . According to research by Politico magazine, documents from the US Department of Justice point to Gusenbauer as the leader of this group . Gusenbauer himself stated that he never knowingly received any money from Manafort and that he was only paid by an American or British company for his work in Ukraine, but he no longer knew from which company.

According to disclosures by the lobbying company Mercury Public Affairs LLC, Gusenbauer had several meetings with American MPs and think tanks in Washington in May 2013. Mercury Public Affairs was lobbying on behalf of the Belgian organization European Center for a Modern Ukraine (ECMU), in addition to Gusenbauer, the former Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi and the former Polish Prime Minister Aleksander Kwaśniewski were involved. The ECMU was apparently close to Yanukovych's Party of Regions - according to a report by Manafort's lobbying firm DMP International LLC, the ECMU was pursuing the same goals as the then Ukrainian ruling party.

Others

During his time as Vice President of the Socialist Youth International, Gusenbauer kissed the soil of what was then the Soviet Union in front of the camera in Moscow , caricaturing Pope John Paul II according to himself .

Political opponents repeatedly spread an anecdote told by Gusenbauer's mother during the 2006 election campaign , according to which, as a small child in the sandpit, he had the wish to become Federal Chancellor in order to refer to him as "Sandpit Chancellor".

A slip of the tongue of the avowed red wine lover Gusenbauer with EU Commission President José Manuel Barroso , where he confused his name with that of the Italian red wine Barolo , earned him corresponding malice.

Together with the state of Carinthia , Gusenbauer awards the "Gusenbauer scholarship", which financially supports two students every year. During a one-year stay abroad as part of their studies, the scholarship holders should be given the opportunity to " study and research abroad ". The scholarship is endowed with € 5,000 per person and is financed through voluntary payments from institutions where Gusenbauer gives free lectures (municipalities, schools or NGOs). The scholarship holders must have their main place of residence in Carinthia and be particularly committed both inside and outside the university.
