Avusturya Prusya ve Almanya'nın Oluşumu 1806-1871

Breuilly analyzes a period and phenomenon that was of critical importance in shaping the political map of Europe. In the background is the European-wide struggle for democratic revolution and counter-revolution against the “old order” under pressure from France. The focus is on the Austria-Germany struggle... This is both the struggle for dominance over Germany, which "has been a cultural and political 'region' for centuries, not a country or state with definite borders", and a struggle between different political regime models. Breuilly, one of the important names in contemporary nationalism research, also examines the formation process of German nationalism and the nation-state in the book. Breuilly describes the formation of the German nation-state as a story that "could have turned out differently."

“By 1860 (...) nationalisms had become so strong that it became almost impossible to pursue overtly anti-nationalist policies. Prussia was in a better position than Austria to join the nationalist bandwagon because it would face far fewer obstacles to non-German lands or interests. (…) Bismarck may have thought that he was manipulating nationalism, but without nationalism it is impossible to understand his success.”
