The New Monarchies: 15 c – 16 c

Characteristics of the New Monarchies 1.They offered the institution of monarchy as a guarantee of law and order. 2.They proclaimed that hereditary monarchy was the legitimate form of public power  all should accept this without resistance. 3.They enlisted the support of the middle class in the towns  tired of the local power of feudal nobles. 4.They would have to get their monarchies sufficiently organized & their finances into reliable order.

Characteristics of the New Monarchies 5.They would break down the mass of feudal, inherited, customary, or “common” law in which the rights of the feudal classes were entrenched. 6.The kings would MAKE law, enact it by his own authority, regardless of previous custom or historic liberties  What pleases the prince has the force of law! 7.Divine Right – The idea that God created the monarch Y that the monarchy and the monarch acted as God’s representative on Earth

England  stability under the Tudors France  consolidation of power. Spain  unification by marriage. HR Empire  different model: the cost of decentralization.
