Austria-Hungary and the 1867 Dualist System

A new and comprehensive analysis of the 1867 dualist settlement and the formation of Austria-Hungary, from its conception to implementation. Exploring important events, key figures, and individual case studies, the analysis is underpinned by three themes: regionally-centred perspectives, the mechanics of government, and the emergence of participatory political cultures. Leading researchers, working in multiple languages and across a variety of topics, have contributed to this fresh, integrated investigation and interpretation.
