This book explores the evolution of Belgian politics from 1884 to 1894 through the lens of the correspondence between King Leopold II and Prime Minister Auguste Beernaert, two influential figures who shaped the country's destiny. The author delves into the intricacies of domestic politics, from efforts to appease social tensions in the aftermath of the 1886 labor crisis to the passage of groundbreaking legislation such as the 1893 constitutional revision. The book also sheds light on Belgium's colonial ambitions, particularly the foundation of the Congo Free State, and the challenges and opportunities presented by international diplomacy. Ultimately, the author argues that Beernaert's unwavering commitment to moderation and consensus-building played a pivotal role in Belgium's transition to a more progressive and prosperous era.
