In the pantheon of isms, classism, defined as a type of discrimination based on social class, where people with less social class status. . . are treated in ways that serve to exclude, devalue, discount, and separate them based on that status (Lott, 2002, as quoted in Langhout et al., 2009, p. 167), is an area that has received limited attention. However, classism has a significant impact on the achievement of diversity and full inclusion (Langhout et al., 2009 Smith, 2009).

In the cultural sphere conflict and tension were to an extent subsumed by intellectual and creative impulses centred upon Austria and especially Vienna. In the realms of music, art and literature as well as the social and medical sciences, Vienna was Europe s intellectual and cultural capital through the nineteenth century and arguably until the 1920s. A number of modernist movements, such as the Vienna Secession in the field of visual...
