Biographies of Diplomats Notes Bibliography Contrary to Russia’s present-day position on the political and psychological periphery of Europe, the period from the end of the Napoleonic Wars to the Crimean War ( –), and arguably until the Bolshevik Revolution of Octo- ber , represented a time of full integration into European society and poli- tics. During this period, the Quadruple Alliance, the general alliance, the grand alliance, and the European political system stood as cornerstones of Russian diplomacy. Russia had led the allied coalition that defeated Napoleon in –­, its armies had performed heroically and honorably in , and its emperor had come to be seen by his subjects and intimates as the divinely anointed savior of Europe. From the Russian point of view, the glorious victory of and the sub- sequent wars leading to Napoleon’s dethronement showed that Emperor Alex- ander I (ruled –) and his people, together with their allies, served as God’s instrument in human history. Not surprisingly, in the eyes of Russia’s monarch and diplomats, the peace settlement reached in ­–, and the peacemaking that continued in subsequent years, appeared equally providential. e basic contours of what contemporaries referred to as the European polit- ical system were forged at the “Congress” of Westphalia, where rulers and diplo- mats recognized state sovereignty (not empire, dynasty, or religious belief) as the foundation of European order. Based on the principle that state sovereignty gave to each government the right to choose a domestic religion and political structure, free from the threat of outside intervention, the peacemakers also embraced the principle of a balance of power between independent states that aimed to preserve European equilibrium and prevent any one country from becoming powerful enough to achieve hegemony. Ultimately, the treaties of Westphalia failed to stop revolutionary France from overturning the equilibrium or Napoleonic France from dominating Europe. us, once Napoleon had been defeated militarily, it became necessary to reconstruct the European state system. Aer roughly twen- ty-ve years of brutal warfare, fragile coalitions, and exhausting diplomacy, the continent’s rulers and diplomats were eager to establish an enduring peace and prepared to make substantive compromises to achieve that goal. In a series of multilateral treaties, conventions, and protocols—produced primarily but not xi xii Preface exclusively in Paris and at the Congress of Vienna in ­–—political leaders reconstituted the public law of Europe, which then provided the legal framework for interstate diplomacy and relations between governments and peoples. Generations of historians have researched the chess game of European politics during the French Revolution, the Napoleonic Empire, and the peacemaking that followed the victory over France. e quality of this scholarship is impres- sive, yet the diplomacy of the era continues to fascinate and bae. In recent de- cades, the reconstruction of Europe at the Congress of Vienna has been seen as a model of multilateral diplomacy and collective security arrangements that estab- lished precedents for today’s United Nations and European Union. In addition, historians have moved beyond simplistic characterizations of Russia’s actions, recognizing instead the critical and oen salutary role of Emperor Alexander I. Scholarly perspectives have become diversied; however, signicant aspects of European politics in the Restoration era remain understudied. ese include the conceptual apparatus developed in diplomatic discourse and the relationship of diplomacy to national or local political cultures. Among the great powers of Restoration Europe, the Russian Empire is the least integrated into both past and current historiography. rough study of Russian diplomacy in the years – , this book broadens the knowledge base available to historians and helps to ll a striking historiographical gap. Begin- ning in the immediate aermath of the Congress of Vienna and continuing through the Congress of Verona, Europe’s statesmen worked tirelessly to im- plement the edice of pacication and peace constructed in ­, , and . ey completed territorial negotiations, codied political arrangements, and brought a defeated France back into the alliance of great powers. Equally sig- nicant, they confronted dangerous revolts and military crises in Europe, the Ottoman Empire, and Spanish America. In response to these developments, Emperor Alexander’s hopes for peace, his pragmatic adaptability, and his com- mitment to act in concert with the other great powers came fully into focus. Close attention to Russian diplomacy, based on sources of Russian provenance, challenges characterizations of Alexander’s behavior as erratic and his foreign policy as heavy-handed and expansionist. Indeed, as historians assimilate the Russian perspective on European order (as well as the perspectives of other less well-studied countries and peoples), they encounter a multifaceted Restoration built upon the practices of enlightened reformism and direct experience of costly revolution and war. Decades have passed since European historians began to reevaluate the Eu- ropean restorations and rebalance their understanding of the achievements and Preface xiii consequences of the French Revolution. e research presented here contrib- utes in multiple ways to debates about the Restoration. As noted, this book highlights Russian diplomacy, which continues to occupy a peripheral and un- derstudied position in European historiography. It does so, moreover, not by analyzing political maneuvers in the high stakes game of diplomatic chess, but by exploring the ideas and concepts that dened Russian foreign policy. e conceptual history of diplomacy leads in turn to emphasis on the dynamics of peacemaking over more familiar themes such as empire building, the emergence of ethno-nationalism, or the struggle between “progress” and “reaction.” Finally, this book focuses on the intersection of principle and action in order to un- derstand how Emperor Alexander and his diplomatic agents presented Russian foreign policy to Europe and the world, what they thought they were doing (or wanted others to think they were doing), and how they thought they were going to establish and preserve a durable peace. Concrete investigation of what it meant to act in concert (concerter) encour- ages a deeper, more nuanced

  • Taming the Evil Passions: Moderation in the International Relations
    CHAPTER 5 Taming the Evil Passions: Moderation in the International Relations Beatrice de Graaf The concept of ‘moderation’ as introduced by Craiutu should not only be applied to domestic political history, but could equally be made fruit- ful in the context of international relations.1 In fact, since the onset of the nineteenth century, the term ‘moderation’ was oftentimes used in conjunction with ‘balance’ and ‘balance of power’. ‘Balance of power’ was an old notion, but in 1814–1815 it was a newly invigorated ideo- logical and political principle, a creed even, subscribed to by diplo- mats, monarchs and commanders alike, and projected onto the new post-Napoleonic European order. In this article, we will fesh out how the ideas of moderation and balance of power, as conceptualized in the The author wishes to express thanks to Yannick Balk, Ido de Haan, Annelotte Janse and Matthijs Lok for their critical comments and help.

  • Biennial Conference of the Modern Greek Studies Association of Australia and New Zealand, La Trobe University, 11-13 December 2008
    1 Modern Greece: an old/new nation Roderick Beaton Keynote paper given at the 9th Biennial Conference of the Modern Greek Studies Association of Australia and New Zealand, La Trobe University, 11-13 December 2008 The title of this talk points to a paradox. Greece is a very old nation, perhaps the oldest in Europe and one of the oldest surviving in the world today. But no: Greece is a new nation, created in the early 19th century. Both these statements can’t be true. And yet who would deny the antiquity of Greece? The name still, today, refers primarily to one of the great ancient civilisations of the world; indeed this is why we often have to distinguish the modern language, and the modern field of studies that brings us together here, by the addition of the word ‘Modern’. We don’t have to talk about ‘Modern British’ studies, ‘Modern French’, still less ‘Modern Australian’! But in the case of Greece we often have to make that distinction, precisely because in the minds of many people and in a wide variety of contexts, the very word ‘Greek’ implies in itself the idea of ‘ancient’. We can deplore this practice if we wish. But the fact remains: ‘Greece’ is very old as well as, in its modern form, distinctly new. The way out of the paradox must surely be to ask: what do you mean by a ‘nation’? That is the question that I intend to address in this talk. In particular, how does the success-story of Greece as a modern nation map onto current and developing theories of nations and nationalism? What does the unique and specific story of modern Greece have to tell comparatists, theorists, and historians of nationalism as a social and political phenomenon? And how, conversely, can the current theoretical debate help us better to understand the specific case of Greece, both in its particularity and in its wider political and sociological context? Two books published in 2008 tackle these issues head on.

  • The Congress of Vienna and the Conservative Order of Europe
    The Congress of Vienna and the Conservative Order of Europe The Congress of Vienna After Napoleon had finally been defeated in 1815, the European monarchs breathed a huge sigh of relief. After all, the French Revolution and the development it had triggered had dominated European politics for more than a quarter of a century. Napoleon had not always been a passionate advocate of the French Revolution, yet his con- quest and occupation of Europe had contributed substantially to the spread of its ideas – liberty, equality, and fra- 5 ternity – all over the continent. Having defeated Napoleon, the monarchs of Europe were eager to ensure the restoration of peace and order. They were particularly anxious about the legacy of the ideas of the revolution, and therefore the governments of Europe were determined to follow policies that provided stability and squelch any kind of political turmoil. The Congress of Vienna, a conference of diplomats from all over Europe, tried to settle political and territ- 10 orial questions that had arisen from the Napoleonic Wars. The Congress began in 1814 when Napoleon was still exiled on Elba. In the beginning, delegates could not agree on any solutions which helped Napoleon re-establish his rule in France after his return from exile. However, after Napoleon’s final defeat at Waterloo in 1815, the Congress of Vienna took up its work again. The countries that had made the most vital contributions to defeat Napoleon were Russia, Great Britain, 15 Prussia, and Austria. Their representatives at the Congress were Tsar Alexander I of Russia, Lord Castlereagh – foreign secretary of Great Britain – King Frederick William III of Prussia, and Prince Klemens von Metternich* – chief minister of Austria and chairman of the conference.

  • 251 Chapter IX Revolution And
    251 Chapter IX Revolution and Law (1789 – 1856) The Collapse of the European States System The French Revolution of 1789 did not initialise the process leading to the collapse of the European states system but accelerated it. In the course of the revolution, demands became articulate that the ruled were not to be classed as subjects to rulers but ought to be recognised as citizens of states and members of nations and that, more fundamentally, the continuity of states was not a value in its own right but ought to be measured in terms of their usefulness for the making and the welfare of nations. The transformations of groups of subjects into nations of citizens took off in the political theory of the 1760s. Whereas Justus Lipsius and Thomas Hobbes1 had described the “state of nature” as a condition of human existence that might occur close to or even within their present time, during the later eighteenth century, theorists of politics and international relations started to position that condition further back in the past, thereby assuming that a long period of time had elapsed between the end of the “state of nature” and the making of states and societies, at least in some parts of the world. Moreover, these theorists regularly fused the theory of the hypothetical contract for the establishment of government, which had been assumed since the fourteenth century, with the theory of the social contract, which had only rarely been postulated before.2 In the view of later eighteenth-century theorists, the combination of both types of contract was to establish the nation as a society of citizens.3 Supporters of this novel theory of the combined government and social contract not merely considered human beings as capable of moving out from the “state of nature” into states, but also gave to humans the discretional mandate to first form their own nations as what came to be termed “civil societies”, before states could come into existence.4 Within states perceived in accordance with these theoretical suppositions, nationals remained bearers of sovereignty.
