A major scholarly study of European international relations from the end of the Seven Years' War to the Revolutions of 1848. In this acclaimed work, historian Paul W. Schroeder challenges traditional interpretations of the balance of power and presents a new understanding of how European statesmen sought stability and order during one of the most transformative periods in European history.
Covering the partitions of Poland, the French Revolution, the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, the Congress of Vienna, and the development of the nineteenth-century international system, Schroeder examines the diplomatic, political and strategic forces that reshaped Europe between 1763 and 1848. The work combines detailed analysis of great-power politics with a broader assessment of international order and statecraft.
Part of the prestigious Oxford History of Modern Europe series, this substantial volume is regarded as one of the most important modern studies of European diplomacy and international relations, making it an essential reference for historians, researchers and serious students of the period.
