Description

Liberty's Folly examines the dramatic collapse of the Polish state in the late 18th century, when an area larger than France was partitioned between Russia, Prussia and Austria between 1772 and 1795. This Routledge publication brings together Polish scholarship previously unavailable to English-speaking readers, offering a comprehensive analysis of the economy, society and institutional structures that shaped Eastern European history. The book explores how the dismemberment of Polish noble democracy occurred at the precise moment Western Europe was rejecting monarchial absolutism, revealing the paradox of how authoritarianism triumphed in the East whilst collapsing in the West. Essential reading for historians, scholars and anyone seeking to understand the geopolitical forces that redrew the map of Europe and determined the fate of nations.
