In the revolutions of 1917–1920, the power of the Hohenzollern, Habsburg, and Romanoff dynasties over their subjects expired.

Looking at his changing conceptions of Europe’s frontiers, this article argues that Coudenhove’s case offers many insights to those who seek to understand the cultural prehistory of the Cold War frontiers.

  • Austria Between Central Europe, Paneuropean Dreams, the “Anschluss” to Nazi Germany and in Exile Abroad 1918/19–45
    63 II . A LOST CAUSE: AUSTRIA BETWEEN CENTRAL EUROPE, PANEUROPEAN DREAMS, THE “ANSCHLUSS” TO NAZI GERMANY AND IN EXILE ABROAD 1918/19–45 1 . THE END OF THE EUROPEAN GREAT POWERS AND A MAN WITH HIS VISION The history of the integration and unification of Europe was often a result of breaks and rifts closely connected with political concepts that ended up reorgan- izing the continent. An overview of these attempts is presented in an illustration,1 which shows that these plans were developed for the most part against the back- ground of far-reaching changes that were characterized by crises and splits: the end of the First World War in 1918 has been viewed as a twofold radical change which consisted of both the internal and external revolutionizing of the world of nation-states. The collapse of the Concert of European Powers (1815–1914) went hand in hand with the fall of four monarchies, the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, the German Empire (Kaiserreich), the Ottoman Empire, and Tsarist Russia as well as their transition to both democratic-republican and authoritarian and dic- tatorial political systems.2 Austria’s foreign policy was greatly influenced by all of these crucial developments. Its foreign and domestic policy had been operating in the shadow of the question of Anschluss and the virulent scenarios of civil war since 1918–19. Count Richard Nikolaus Coudenhove-Kalergi’s ideas on “Paneurope”3 were reflexes to the triple crises of the years from 1917–19 which arose from a crisis 1 See Graph 1: Attempts at the Reorganization of Europe and Suggestions for its Integration and the documents 1–13 in the appendix “Documents”.

  • Journal of European Integration History Revue D
    JOURNAL OF EUROPEAN INTEGRATION HISTORY REVUE D’HISTOIRE DE L’INTÉGRATION EUROPÉENNE ZEITSCHRIFT FÜR GESCHICHTE DER EUROPÄISCHEN INTEGRATION edited by the Groupe de liaison des professeurs d’histoire contemporaine auprès de la Commission européenne 2002, Volume 8, Number 2 The Liaison Committee of Historians came into being in 1982 as a result of an important international symposium that the Commission had organized in Luxembourg to launch historical research on Euro- pean integration. The committee is composed of historians of the European Union member countries who work on contemporary history. The Liaison Committee: – gathers and conveys information about work on European history after the Second World War; – advises the European Union on research projects concerning contemporary European history. Thus, the Liaison Committee was commissioned to make publicly available the archives of the Community institutions; – enables researchers to make better use of the archival sources; – promotes research meetings to get an update of work in progress and to stimulate new research: seven research conferences have been organized and their proceedings published. The Journal of European Integration History – Revue d’histoire de l’intégration européenne – Zeitschrift für Geschichte der europäischen Integration is in line with the preoccupations of the Liaison Committee. Being the first history journal to deal exclusively with the history of European Integration, the Journal offers the increasing number of young historians devoting their research to contemporary Europe, a permanent forum. The Liaison Committee is supported by the European Commission, but works completely independ- ently and according to historians’ critical method. ❋ Le Groupe de liaison des professeurs d’histoire contemporaine auprès de la Commission des Communautés européennes s’est constitué en 1982 à la suite d’un grand colloque que la Commis- sion avait organisé à Luxembourg pour lancer la recherche historique sur la construction européenne.
