This volume, together with its predeccessor (Ideas and
Institutions, 1969), is an examinataion of the social and economic
foreces that helped shape Germany in the mid-nineteenth century.
The previous volume established the ideological and institutional
framework; in Struggles and Accomplishments Mr. Hamerow discussess,
within that framework, the forma nd achievement of German
unification. Using documentation from business, artisan, and
workers' organizations, the press, and government archives, Mr.
Hamerow considers the changes effected by the growth of an
industrial society: among them, the new, mid-century confrontation
between the established order (the crown and aristocracy) and the
advocates of change (the propertied and educated bourgeoisie). The
German Empire was, lie shows, the product of an unwritten
compromise between the two groups, ready now to sacrifice the
ideological principles that separated them for economic and
political expediency. Originally published in 1972. The Princeton
Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again
make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished
backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the
original texts of these important books while presenting them in
durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton
Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly
heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton
University Press since its founding in 1905.
