The Paternal State In France And Germany (1898) - Henry Gaullieur - Bog

The Paternal State In France And Germany is a book written by Henry Gaullieur in 1898. The book provides a detailed analysis of the political systems in France and Germany during the late 19th century. Gaullieur explores the concept of the ""paternal state"", which refers to a government that assumes a paternalistic role in the lives of its citizens, providing for their welfare and regulating their behavior. He examines the historical development of this concept in both countries, tracing its origins back to the absolutist monarchies of the 17th and 18th centuries.The book also delves into the social and economic conditions that gave rise to the paternal state, including the growth of industrialization and the emergence of a new urban middle class. Gaullieur argues that the paternal state was a response to the challenges posed by these changes, as governments sought to maintain social order and stability in the face of rapid social and economic transformation.Throughout the book, Gaullieur compares and contrasts the paternal state in France and Germany, highlighting the similarities and differences between the two systems. He also examines the role of political parties, the influence of the Catholic Church, and the impact of international relations on the development of the paternal state.Overall, The Paternal State In France And Germany is an insightful and comprehensive analysis of an important period in European political history. It provides a valuable resource for scholars and students of political science, history, and sociology, as well as anyone interested in the development of modern political systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
