1. I would like to draw attention to the observation by Behrens, B. in the chapter “Government and Society” in the Cambridge Economic History of Europe, vol. 5, p. 549 Google Scholar: “Absolutism is a term which was invented at the beginning of the 19th century and is used to describe a particular form of autocracy.” One could invert the phrase: “Autocracy was invented at the beginning of the 19th century to describe a particular form of absolutism.“
