reception

In 2010 he sat in the work published by Lit Verlag Die FPÖ - a right-wing extremist party? dealt with radicalization tendencies in the FPÖ under the chairman Heinz-Christian Strache . For his thesis that the party was right-wing extremist , he presented a “wealth of evidence”, but “in an analytically no broader framework”. There is a lack of “analytical rigor” as the political scientist and sociologist Armin Pfahl-Traughber noted, although he was able to agree with Mittnik's basic assumption. Elsewhere, his summary that the FPÖ could be described as an “ Islamophobic party” - which he understands as a kind of “Islamic racism ” - is discussed. According to the weekly news magazine , Mittnik had thought wisely that the book was a “concentrated compilation of questionable statements from the Strache era”. It is recommended by the anthropologist and specialist author Werner T. Bauer from the Austrian Society for Policy Advice and Policy Development (ÖGPP).

In 2014 he worked out that in history lessons there is sometimes a "traditional history model in which an event-based, data and fact-oriented approach" still exists. In 2015 he was quoted as a proponent of the draft for a new curriculum “History and Social Studies / Political Education” for the AHS lower level and the New Middle School as follows: “Nobody in Austria wants to abolish Austrian history [...] but it should increase its status that she actually has. Mere national history , which shows how great we are, has long been a thing of the past ”.
