Description

It is often argued that the unification of Germany in 1871 was the inevitable result of the convergence of Prussian power and German nationalism. John Breuilly here shows that the true story was much more complex. For most of the nineteenth century Austria was the dominant power in the region. Prussian-led unification was highly unlikely up until the 1860s and even then was only possible because of the many other changes happening in Germany, Europe and the wider world.

Author Biography:

John Breuilly is Professor of Nationalism and Ethnicity at the London School of Economics. His other publications in this field include The Formation of the First German Nation-State (1996) and, with Ronald Speirs (eds), Germany’s Two Unifications: Anticipations, Experiences, Responses (2004). He is currently editing The Oxford Handbook of the History of Nationalism.
