The years of Chancellors Dollfuss and Schuschnigg’s authoritarian governments (1933/34-1938) have been denounced as "Austrofascism" from the left, or defended as a Christian corporate state ("Stondestaat") from the right. During this period, Austria was in a desperate struggle to maintain its national independence vis-o-vis Hitler’s Germany, a struggle that ultimately failed. In the end, the Nazis invaded and annexed Austria (Anschluss").
