- Title
The Thoughts of Clausewitz on Society and State in Times of European Upheaval.
- Authors
Türpe, Andrée
- Abstract
My article focuses on Clausewitz's actual statements regarding the political changes of his time. It highlights his understanding of the notions of 'revolution,' 'reform,' 'monarchy,' 'republic' and 'nation state.' Using a concrete historical analysis, I aim to show that the Prussian philosopher of war is best characterized as a supporter of reforms, monarchy and as a representative of national patriotism. In a nutshell, Clausewitz was a supporter of reform in order to prevent revolution or suppress revolutionary inclinations.
