In 1868, the nadir of several years of worsening economic conditions, 137,000 people (approximately 8% of the Finnish population) perished as the result of hunger and disease. The attitudes and policies enacted by Finlands devolved administration tended to follow European norms, and therefore were often similar to the colonial practices seen in other famines at the time. What is distinctive about this catastrophe in a mid-nineteenth-century context, is that despite Finland being a part of the Russian Empire, it was largely responsible for its own governance, and indeed was developing its economic, political and cultural autonomy at the time of the famine. Finlands Great Famine 1856-68 examines key themes such as the use of emergency foods, domestic and overseas charity, vagrancy and crime, emergency relief works, and emigration. 001468234 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001468234 651_0 $$aFinland$$xHistory$$yFamine, 1867-1868. 001468234 651_0 $$aFinland$$xHistory$$y1809-1917. 001468234 651_0 $$aFinland$$xPolitics and government$$y1809-1917. 001468234 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001468234 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aNEWBY, ANDREW.$$tFINLAND'S GREAT FAMINE, 1856-68.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2023$$z303119473X$$w(OCoLC)1346068199 001468234 852__ $$bebk 001468234 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-19474-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001468234 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1468234$$pGLOBAL_SET 001468234 980__ $$aBIB 001468234 980__ $$aEBOOK 001468234 982__ $$aEbook 001468234 983__ $$aOnline 001468234 994__ $$a92$$bISE
