    • Wirtschaftsbürgertum im Vormärz

      Inwiefern tritt der Augsburger Wirtschaftsbürger in der Gesellschaft in Erscheinung und kann er als typischer Vertreter des deutschen Wirtschaftsbürgertums im Vormärz betrachtet werden?

      Der Begriff des Wirtschaftsbürgertums wird im Kontext des Vormärz als eine potenziell homogene Gesellschaftsschicht dargestellt, die gemeinsame Ziele verfolgt. Die Arbeit untersucht jedoch die Komplexität dieser Gruppe und betont, dass es entscheidend ist, die unterschiedlichen Interessen und sozialen Dynamiken innerhalb des Wirtschaftsbürgertums zu berücksichtigen. Durch diese differenzierte Betrachtung wird ein tieferes Verständnis für die sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Veränderungen in der Zeit vor der Revolution vermittelt.
