Özet:

 This study aims to analyze the relationship between the establisment of German National Unity and the Zollverein, continuing its existence until 1919 after being founded in 1834 under the leadership the Kingdom of Prussia. Since there is not even a descriptive research in the Turkish literature related to the subject, the study deals with the subject by comparing two different views by analyzing the historical events in a chronological order. According to the first view, the establishment of German national unity is based on the military and operational genius of Prussian military staff, especially Bismarck. According to this idea, German national unity was able to be founded thanks to the military and political moves of Prussian staff, especially Bismarck who managed to use it effectively both politically and militarily since the second half of 19th century. However, the opposing view states that the foundation of the union and Prussias taking a leading role was laid with the Zollverein. According to this idea, the Zollverein enabled Prussia to establish economic leadership over the other German states and helped it to acquire political leadership over time. The study is a qualitative research, in which the opinions of experts were reached through archive scanning and the analysis was made accordingly. It has been found that Zollverein undertook an important mission by contributing to industrialization, but the main factor in the establishment of German national unity was the military, operational and political actions implemented by the Prussian staff.

 Bu çalışma, 1834 yılında Prusya Krallığının öncülüğünde kurulup 1919 yılına kadar varlığını sürdüren Zollverein ile Alman ulusal birliğinin kuruluşunun ilişkisini analiz etmektedir. Konu ile ilgili Türkçe literatürde tanımlayıcı bir araştırmaya dahi rastlanmamıştır. Bu yüzden bu çalışma, konuya iki farklı görüş açısını ve uzman görüşlerini kıyaslayarak ve tarihî olayları kronolojik sırayla analiz ederek yaklaşmaktadır. Birinci görüşe göre, bazı araştırmacılar tarafından Alman ulusal birliğinin kuruluşundan bahsedilirken başta Bismarck olmak üzere, Prusya kurmaylarının askerî ve operasyonel dehası ön plana çıkarılmaktadır. Bu düşünceye göre Alman ulusal birliğinin kurulması, Prusyanın artan gücü ile etkisini 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından itibaren hem siyasî hem de askerî olarak etkin bir şekilde kullanmayı başaran başta Bismarck olmak üzere Prusya kurmaylarının askerî ve siyasi hamleleri sayesinde mümkün olmuştur. Karşıt görüş ise birliğin kurulmasının ve Prusyanın öncü bir rol üstlenmesinin temelinin Zollverein ile atıldığını ifade etmektedir. Bu fikre göre ise Zollverein, Prusyanın diğer Alman devletleri üzerinde ekonomik liderlik kurmasını sağlamış ve zamanla siyasî liderliği elde etmesinin yolunu açmıştır. Nitel bir araştırma olarak tasarlanan çalışmada, konu ile ilgili uzmanların görüşlerine arşiv taraması yöntemiyle ulaşılmış ve bu sınırlılıklar içerisinde bir analiz yapılmıştır. Zollvereinin endüstrileşmeye katkı sağlayarak önemli bir misyon üstlendiği ancak Alman ulusal birliğinin kurulmasının ana etkenini, Prusya kurmayları tarafından uygulanan askerî, operasyonel ve politik eylemlerin teşkil ettiği bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır.
