Using little-known Italian, Austrian, and Dalmatian sources, Monzali explores the political history of Dalmatia between 1848 and 1915, with a focus on the Italian minority, on Austrian-Italian ...relations and on the foreign policy of the Italian state towards the region and its peoples.
This volume is the result of collaboration between historians and scientific institutions in Austria and Italy. It covers two major topics: the bilateral contacts in the 20th century between the two ...neighbouring countries and the role of the South Tyrol question in this relationship. In the Rome-Vienna-Bolzano triangle, the most important intersections of this continuously maintained relationship are illuminated and central questions of recent European history are examined: the treatment of national minorities, the work of authoritarian regimes as well as democratization and the process of European integration. The aim of this volume is to map the current state of research, to open up possible new fields of research and to give new impulses to the historiographical dialogue between Rome and Vienna.; Dieser Band ist das Ergebnis der Zusammenarbeit zwischen Historikern und wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen in Österreich und Italien. Er umfasst zwei große Themenbereiche: die bilateralen Kontakte im 20. Jahrhundert zwischen den beiden Nachbarländern sowie die Rolle der Südtirolfrage in diesem Verhältnis. Im Dreieck Rom-Wien-Bozen werden die wichtigsten Schnittpunkte dieser fortwährend aufrechterhaltenen Beziehung beleuchtet und zentrale Fragen der jüngsten europäischen Geschichte untersucht: der Umgang mit nationalen Minderheiten, das Wirken autoritärer Regimes sowie die Demokratisierung und der Prozess der europäischen Integration. Ziel dieses Bandes ist es, den derzeitigen Forschungsstand abzubilden, mögliche neue Forschungsfelder zu eröffnen und dem historiografischen Dialog zwischen Rom und Wien neue Impulse zu verleihen.

Dalmatia emerged as a historical and political concept in the Roman era. Augustus created a Roman province named after the Dalmati, Delmata or Delmatae, an Illyrian tribe that lived on the eastern ...coasts of the Adriatic. This province incorporated the central and western Balkans – not just the east coast of the Adriatic from eastern Istria to the Drina River but also a vast hinterland that was bounded to the north by the southern part of the territory traversed by the Sava River and that comprised the modern regions of Bosnia, Herzegovina, and Montenegro, and much of Albania and Serbia. The
As we have seen, the Dalmatian Autonomist Party saw a profound reduction in its political influence in Dalmatia over the course of the 1880s and 1890s. Victim of the shift in the Habsburg Empire’s ...domestic and foreign policy, autonomist liberalism lost control of all the main Dalmatian cities except Zara and became a minority force with respect to pan-Croatian nationalism, which was now dominant at the regional level as well as in political representation at Vienna. The crisis in autonomism resulted in an important change in the nature of this movement. In the face of the emergence and growing strength
The growing rivalry between Prussia and Austria within the German Confederation was the political development that allowed the kingdom of Italy to challenge the Habsburg Empire on the battlefi eld in ...1866.¹
Between 1863 and 1865, with the backing of Great Britain, which saw the problem of the Veneto as a source of instability in European politics,² Italian diplomacy had tried to find a peaceful solution to the Venetian question but without concrete results. In the face of deteriorating Franco-Russian relations, provoked by the violent suppression of the uprising in Poland, Marco Minghetti’s government had sent Count Giuseppe Pasolini on
