Abstract

The reforms under Maria Theresa and Joseph II in the Austrian monarchy were undertaken to preserve Austria's status as a great power attained by the triumphs over the Turks between 1683 and 1699 and the absorption of the Spanish Netherlands, Naples, Milan and Sardinia in 1714, the gradual separation of the Habsburg dominions from the Holy Roman Empire, the triumph of Counter-Reformation Catholicism and the later impact of Jansenism and Enlightenment. Impetus for the Theresian-Josephine reforms came from the weakness of the monarchy in the War of the Austrian Succession and the Prussian conquest of Silesia. The church reforms as part of a broader reform movement in state and- society were a product of the Catholic Enlightenment.
