THE COLLAPSE OF THE AUSTRO-HUNGARIAN MONARCHY THE FUNDAMENTAL ROLE OF THE GEOPOLITICAL TRANSITION AND PERCEPTION
Journal Title: Journal of International Relations and Political Science Studies - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
The story of the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is extremely complex, and the lessons to be learned from it are still very relevant. Since the dissolution, the factors which led to the collapse of the last Central European Empire have been studied from various aspects by historians and social scientists. Among these studies, two major groups are especially important. The first category of scholars identified external and international causes of the dissolution, while the second group prioritises internal factors as the main reasons behind the collapse. This research recognises the relevance of these analyses, as well as the importance of both external and internal factors in the Empire’s dissolution. Although these triggered the disintegration, they cannot be evaluated as the main and only background. The study suggests a geopolitical perspective to analyse the collapse of the state and focuses on three interrelated causes; the transformation of the geopolitical world order – the era of transition, the lack of geopolitical vision and initiative of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy elites, and the consequent weak state-society relations and finally the exclusion from the geopolitical discourse, the changes in imagination, belief, and narrative.
