Beschreibung
In "An Essay on the Theory of Enlightened Despotism", Leonard Krieger explores the concept of enlightened despotism, a form of absolute monarchy or despotism inspired by the Enlightenment. The book delves into the historical context and evolution of this political theory, analyzing its origins in 18th-century Europe and its impact on global politics. Krieger examines key figures such as Catherine the Great, Frederick the Great, and Joseph II who were considered enlightened despots. He also discusses how these rulers attempted to apply Enlightenment ideas to their governance, often with mixed results. The book provides an insightful look into the tension between enlightenment ideals and the realities of absolute power.
