Liberal Imperialism in Germany: Expansionism and Nationalism, 1848-1884

Matthew P. Fitzpatrick

0/5 ( ratings)

In a work based on new archival, press, and literary sources, the author revises the picture of German imperialism as being the brainchild of a Machiavellian Bismarck or the -conservative revolutionaries- of the twentieth century. Instead, Fitzpatrick argues for the liberal origins of German imperialism, by demonstrating the links between nationalism and expansionism in a study that surveys the half century of imperialist agitation and activity leading up to the official founding of Germany's colonial empire in 1884.
