The Limits of Loyalty : Imperial Symbolism, Popular Allegiances, and State Patriotism in the Late Habsburg Monarchy, Hardback Book

The Limits of Loyalty : Imperial Symbolism, Popular Allegiances, and State Patriotism in the Late Habsburg Monarchy Hardback

Edited by Laurence Cole, Daniel Unowsky

Part of the Austrian and Habsburg Studies series

Hardback

Description

The overwhelming majority of historical work on the late Habsburg Monarchy has focused primarily on national movements and ethnic conflicts, with the result that too little attention has been devoted to the state and ruling dynasty.

This volume is the first of its kind to concentrate on attempts by the imperial government to generate a dynastic-oriented state patriotism in the multinational Habsburg Monarchy.

It examines those forces in state and society which tended toward the promotion of state unity and loyalty towards the ruling house.

These essays, all original contributions and written by an international group of historians, provide a critical examination of the phenomenon of “dynastic patriotism” and offer a richly nuanced treatment of the multinational empire in its final phase.
