This article discusses the development of the Austrian academic landscape in the late 19 th and early 20 th centuries, concentrating on the different reasons for the academic mobility of legal scholars. Whereas German had been the leading language at the Austrian universities around 1860, the reforms of the following years led to the consideration of the multi-ethnic demands of the universities in Cracow, Lviv and Prague. Due to the changes in the language of instruction at the universities of Cracow and Lviv, these academic institutions were not at the center of the mobility of Viennese legal scholars. Although many different groups demanded the foundation of new universities in Cisleithania, only one was successful-the German university of Chernivtsi. This article shows the significance of this university for the academic mobility between the Austrian universities and the difficulties the academic staff in Chernivtsi had to face during and after World War I. It presents other examples for the changes in the academic world after the "Great War" as well, inter alia the situation of the Ukrainian scholars, the financial problems of the Austrian universities and the growing Anti-Semitism.
