Erich Hackl is a politically committed author. His works, which are based on authentic cases, show that he does not want to resign himself to the injustice that is encountered in many places and in many forms - especially in our recent history. Thus, he repeatedly deals with the victims of political violence and with such figures of recent history who, for their part, have refused to accept the prevailing conditions. His works are published by Diogenes-Verlag.
