Description

This Routledge historical study examines the formation of national identity in Upper Silesia during a transformative period spanning 1880 to 1950, centring on the 1921 Plebiscite that followed the First World War. The work explores how Europe's second largest industrial region grappled with the question of German or Polish nationality, revealing the complexity beneath what appeared a straightforward choice. Rather than resolving national identity, the plebiscite exposed the enduring strength of transnational allegiances, regionalist movements, and sub-national identities that transcended simple national boundaries. The book investigates how religion, local tradition, and economic ties shaped belonging and identity in ways that challenged conventional nationalist narratives. Through this focused regional study, readers gain insight into the broader dynamics of nation-building, violence, and identity formation across Central Europe during the turbulent interwar period and beyond.

Key Features

Analyses the 1921 Upper Silesia Plebiscite, the largest formal self-determination exercise in European history following the First World War.

Examines transnational, regionalist and sub-national allegiances that complicated national identity formation in Upper Silesia's industrial communities.

Explores how religion and cultural factors shaped belonging alongside nationality in Central European identity construction between 1880 and 1950.

Part of Routledge Studies in the History of Russia and Eastern Europe series, providing scholarly context for Eastern European historical development.

Investigates modernity and violence as forces shaping nationality and regional identity in post-war Central Europe.
