Abstract:The governments of the newly formed and expanded states of Habsburg Central Europe began remaking society in formerly imperial spaces following Austria-Hungary’s defeat in 1918. Austria-Hungary’s demise as a geopolitical unit did not mean the disappearance of its administrative and juridical apparatus, some of which functioned well into the interwar era. Because bureaucratic transition did not necessarily parallel political transition, there was often no immediate, dramatic change in the regulation of prostitution—or the treatment of prostitutes and women assumed to be prostitutes—in these states. Some officials/police maintained that prostitution was a “necessary evil,” and sought its continued regulation, while others sought its abolition. This article analyzes continuity and change in the treatment of prostitutes in prewar/wartime Cisleithanian Austria and postwar Venezia Giulia and Slovenia. Neighboring provinces under the Habsburg Monarchy, Italy occupied the former in late 1918, while the latter became part of Yugoslavia.

Title:Un'eredità asburgica : sesso e politiche sociali nella Venezia Giulia e in Slovenia tra le due guerre mondiali
Abstract:Dopo la sconfitta dell’Austria-Ungheria nel 1918, i governi degli Stati espansi di nuova formazione dell’Europa centrale asburgica cominciarono a ridisegnare la società negli spazi un tempo imperiali. La scomparsa dell’Austria-Ungheria come unità geopolitica non significò la scomparsa dei suoi apparati amministrativi e giuridici, alcuni dei quali funzionarono fino all’epoca interbellica. Poiché la transizione burocratica non andava necessariamente di pari passo con quella politica, spesso in questi Stati non si verificarono cambiamenti immediati e radicali nella regolamentazione della prostituzione o nel trattamento delle prostitute e delle donne che venivano ritenute come tali. Alcuni funzionari/poliziotti sostenevano che la prostituzione era un “male necessario” e cercavano di continuare a regolamentarla, mentre altri cercavano di abolirla. Questo articolo analizza la continuità e il cambiamento nel trattamento delle prostitute nell’Austria Cisleitania del periodo prebellico/bellico e nella Venezia Giulia e Slovenia del dopoguerra. Province confinanti sotto la monarchia asburgica, l’Italia occupò la prima alla fine del 1918, mentre la seconda divenne parte della Jugoslavia.
