Description 1 online resource (viii, 300 pages) Summary Did Germany develop in an unusual, rather 'unhealthy' way? Was Imperial Germany characterized by the triumph of authoritarian Prussian aristocratic classes ('Junkers')? The authors are deeply critical of this interpretation. They contend that Germany may have developed in a particular way and although devoid of a 'bourgeois revolution', the middle classes came to the fore in the economy, culture and society Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record Subject Middle class -- Germany -- History -- 19th century Political participation -- Germany -- History -- 19th century Economic history Middle class Political participation Social conditions SUBJECT Germany -- History -- 1789-1900. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85054569 Germany -- History -- 1871-1918. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85054578 Germany -- Social conditions -- 19th century. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh90000556 Germany -- Economic conditions -- 19th century. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85054494 Subject Germany Genre/Form History Form Electronic book Author Eley, Geoff, 1949- ISBN 9780191694943 0191694940
