Description

This textbook offers a survey of the history of Central Europe since 1848, from the ‘Springtime of Nations’, through the world wars and communist period, to NATO and EU membership.

With an emphasis on nation-building, it gives the reader a better understanding of not just political history but also of the region’s economic development and of everyday life.

The book brings the reader right up to the present, considering contemporary issues such as the impact of the 2015 refugee crisis, migration out of Central Europe, the weakening of democratic institutions and the re-emergence of nationalism.

Throughout, it offers fresh perspectives, gives agency to Central Europe, and pays attention to the ethnic, linguistic and religious diversity of the region.

This is essential reading for students taking courses on Central/East-Central Europe.

It is also suitable for courses on 19th and 20th Century Europe, or for anyone with an interest in the region.
