Confederation new territory
The Bund Neuland is an Austrian association that was founded in 1919 as the "Christian-German Student Association" by Karl Rudolf and Michael Pfliegler . He emerged from the Catholic youth movement .
history
One reason for the foundation was the fight against secularization . The federal organ was the magazine Neue Jugend , which Karl Rudolf brought into being. The federation played a decisive role in the liturgical movement in Austria.
The Bund Neuland was the first Catholic association to declare that membership in Neuland was incompatible with National Socialism and dissolved itself when Austria was annexed in 1938 .
The Bund Neuland was re-established in 1948 by former members of the "Bund Catholic Youth Movement-Neuland".
