The period between 1830 and 1880 was one of immense activity, radical political change and startling economic and social growth in Europe. Professor Hearder presents it in all its energy and diversity in his broad-ranging and analytical survey. He explores the traditional themes of the struggles for power between individuals, parties and classes within the state, and between the nations of Europe as a whole; but these issues are discussed within the wider context of a study of the administration, organisation and growth of European society.
