Comparing Empires: Encounters and Transfers in the Long Nineteenth Century: 1 (Schriftenreihe Der Frias School of History) - Hardcover
Synopsis
The empires of Europe were characterized by their ethnic pluralism and diverse geographical backgrounds. This pluralism was long held to be the reason for the eventual failure and disintegration of Europe. Unlike today, the empires of the time had a more lasting influence on the history of Europe than did the individual nation states. The contributions to this volume systematically compare four European empires of the 19th and early 20th centuries: the British Empire, the Habsburg Monarchy, Russia and the Ottoman Empire. Examples are given to show the tension that existed in the relationships between the central and the peripheral areas as well as between the rulers and those they ruled over. The infrastructure, political conflicts and war experiences are demonstrated in the everyday practice of monarchy and religion.|Die multiethnischen Großreiche und ihre Bedeutung für die Entwicklung der europäischen Geschichte.|Europas Großreiche waren geprägt von ethnischer Differenz und räumlicher Vielfalt. Gerade der Umgang mit Pluralität, die lange als Ursache für Scheitern und Zerfall galt, interessiert heute als typisches Signum Europas. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes vergleichen systematisch vier europäische Empires im 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhundert – das Britische Empire, die Habsburgermonarchie, Russland und das Osmanische Reich – und erklären, was die Beziehungen zwischen Zentrum und Peripherie sowie zwischen Herrschern und Beherrschten so spannungsreich und vielfältig machte.|In einem systematischen Vergleich wird die Bedeutung multiethnischer Großreiche für die Geschichte der europäischen Moderne neu bestimmt.|Historians, the respective libraries and institutes.
