Revolutions and the Revolutionary Tradition (eBook, ePUB)

In the West 1560-1991
Redaktion: Parker, David

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Presents eight European case studies including the English revolution of 1649, the French Revolution and the recent revolutions within the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe (1989-1991) and examines them not only in their specific political, economic and social contexts but also as part of the wider European revolutionary tradition. A chapter on the American Revolution is also included as a revolution which grew out of a European expansionist and a European political culture. David Parker brings together leading writers on European history, who make a major contribution to the controversial debate on the role of revolution in the development of European history.
