This book focuses on the hitherto unexplored Hungarian influence on the Habsburg Monarchy’s policy toward Serbia after the 1867 Ausgleich, and it argues that this early period was critical in shaping policy after 1871, down to the imposition on Serbia in 1881 of a system of economic and political control.

Über Autor(innen)

Ian D. Armour has been teaching history at Grant MacEwan University since 2006, and previously taught at Staffordshire University and the School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London, where he completed his PhD in 1994. His specialty is the history of the Habsburg Monarchy’s relationship with Serbia in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, but he has a strong side-interest in German history. He is the author (with Ian Porter) of Imperial Germany 1890–1918 (Longman, 1991) and sole author of A History of Eastern Europe 1740–1918: Empires, Nations, and Modernisation, 2nd edition (Bloomsbury, 2012), as well as numerous articles in peer-reviewed journals. He is currently working on a companion volume to the present study, taking the story down to 1903, and is writing A History of Eastern Europe, 1918 to the Present for Bloomsbury.
