Career highlights
Hörhan received a negative response in a review by Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, where the Publisher Philippe Kron wrote that the policy of his book can be stored in a ten -page folder. In his last assessment, he mentioned Herkhan’s work for a book for Masokis. Kristof Kapal Schinski, observing Handelsblatt, suggested that the reader of the book hopes to become a satire victim. In his opinion, this book is less offensive to the middle class compared to intellectuals. The reaction in Austrian media is lighter. The daily newspaper “Die Presse” interviewed the author broadly about his book thesis. At Wiener Zeitung, Christian Ortner described the second book Hörhan “Gegengift” as a book that is easily understood, very useful, especially for readers who are economically unknown. Suggestions are credible and trustworthy, even though the book is written in a dark style.
For his latest publication, Hörhan is looking for a new allies, the Austrian economic center, which is currently largely promoting his book Null Bock. Franz Wolf Wolfart, Director of Novomatic, is a member of the Liberal Think Tank Scientific Council. This is a branch of Frederick A. V. Hayek Institute. Barbara Colm, a former FPö advisor in Innsbruck, is an integral part of this “institution”. Of course Herkhan has adapted the “message” of his new book to what his friends wanted to hear: “Right now we have a very unusual redistribution: from” hard workers to lazy “and from” bad hardworking “to” very “very Lazy “. This is dangerous because productivity is no longer valued.
