Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " La révolution est terminée. " À la fin du siècle dernier, la formule a fait date. Mais rien n'était plus faux. Il suffit, pour s'en convaincre, de déplacer le regard hors des régions occidentales, à Tunis, Alger, Hong Kong ou Téhéran. Étendre dans l'espace mais aussi dans le temps, bien avant le XVIIIe siècle, l'enquête sur les révolutions, en montrer les dynamiques transnationales, les échos, les reprises, les " modèles " comme les singularités, telle est l'ambition de cette histoire globale. Rédigés par des spécialistes du monde entier, ses chapitres explorent la richesse de l'histoire révolutionnaire, mettent en lumière des révolutions moins connues et arpentent des géographies inédites traversant tous les continents. La Révolution française, les révolutions atlantiques et le Printemps des peuples côtoient les révoltes anticoloniales indiennes, les mouvements populaires de Corée ou du Japon et les grands soulèvements latino-américains ; les Révolutions russe et chinoise ne font pas oublier les révolutions d'indépendance, notamment africaines, ni les rébellions multiples qui émaillent un monde en perpétuelle effervescence. Affranchie de ses bornes classiques, l'archive révolutionnaire livre des interrogations neuves et des recherches fructueuses. Le rôle de la spiritualité et de la religion, des empires et des nationalismes, de l'économie et de l'État, de l'environnement et du climat, est ainsi exposé à des lumières plus vives, tout comme les protagonistes, notamment les femmes, la paysannerie, le monde ouvrier... Et dès lors, comment passe-t-on à l'acte ? Comment vivent, dans l'extraordinaire des jours de soulèvement, celles et ceux qui y participent ? Au terme du parcours, les jugements péremptoires et polarisés sur les vertus et les vices de la révolution ressortent fragilisés ; le bilan des révolutions acquiert des contours plus nets – et leur avenir même peut être mieux apprécié.
Download or read book Revolution and the Global Struggle for Modernity written by Frank Jacob and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, as the first volume of a multiple volume endeavor to analyze several revolutions of the “long” nineteenth and “short” twentieth century to show how revolutionary processes evolved, takes a closer look at the Atlantic Revolutions, that is, the American, the French, and the Haitian Revolution. It will therefore use a comparative ten-step model to emphasize similarities with regard to the revolutionary developments in different parts of the world. The book consequently aims at providing a general, but deeper, understanding of revolutions as a global phenomenon of modernity while explaining how revolutionary processes evolve and develop, and how they could and can be corrupted.
Download or read book The Epoch of Universalism 1769 1989 L poque de l universalisme 1769 1989 written by Franck Hofmann and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2019 witnessed the 30th anniversary of the German reunification. But the remembrance of the fall of the Berlin Wall coincided with another event of global importance that caught much less attention: the 250th anniversary of Napoleon Bonaparte’s birth. There is an undeniable historical and philosophical dimension to this coincidence. Napoleon’s appearance on the scene of world history seems to embody European universalism (soon thereafter in the form of a ‘modern’ imperial project); whilst scholars such as Francis Fukuyama saw in the events of 1989 its historical fulfilment. Today, we see more clearly that the fall of the Berlin Wall stands for an epistemic earthquake, which generated a world that can no longer be grasped through universal concepts. Here, we deal with the idea of Europe and of its relation to the world itself. Picking up on this contingency of world history with an ironic wink, the volume analyses in retrospect the epoch of European universalism. It focusses on its dialectics, polemically addressing and remembering both 1769 and 1989. L’année 2019 a été marquée par le 30e anniversaire de la réunification de l’Allemagne, éclipsant un autre événement d’envergure mondiale : le 250e anniversaire de Napoléon Bonaparte. La dimension philosophico-historique de cette coïncidence ne peut pourtant pas être négligée : si l’arrivée de Bonaparte sur la scène de l’histoire mondiale semble incarner l’avènement de l’universalisme européen (bientôt amené à prendre sa forme « moderne » et impériale), certains penseurs ont suggéré, avec Francis Fukuyama, que « 1989 » marquait son accomplissement historique. Aujourd’hui, il apparaît au contraire que la chute du mur de Berlin a été un véritable tremblement de terre épistémique, et rendu inopérants les concepts universels. Dans le monde d’après, c’est à l’idée d’Europe et à sa relation au monde que nous avons affaire. Revenant par un geste ironique sur cette contingence historique, le présent volume se veut une analyse rétrospective de l’époque de l’universalisme, dans toute la dialectique que les commémorations de 1769/1989 ont fait surgir.

Download or read book Revolutionary World written by David Motadel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-25 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the modern age, revolutions have spread across state borders, engulfing entire regions, continents, and, at times, the globe. Revolutionary World examines the spread of upheavals during the major revolutionary moments in modern history: the Atlantic Revolutions, Europe's 1848 revolts, the commune movement of the 1870s, the 1905-15 upheavals in Asia, the communist revolutions around 1917, the 'Wilsonian' uprisings of 1919, the 'Third World' revolutions, the global Islamic revolt of 1978-79, the events of 1989, and the rise and fall of the 'Arab Spring'. The chapters explore the nature of these revolutionary waves, tracing the exchange of radical ideas and the movements of revolutionaries around the world. Bringing together a group of distinguished historians, Revolutionary World shows that the major revolutions of the modern age, which have so often been studied as isolated national or imperial events, were almost never contained within state borders and were usually part of broader revolutionary moments.

Download or read book Revolutions A Very Short Introduction written by Jack A. Goldstone and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-01-06 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1789 in France to 2011 in Cairo, revolutions have shaken the world. In their pursuit of social justice, revolutionaries have taken on the assembled might of monarchies, empires, and dictatorships. They have often, though not always, sparked cataclysmic violence, and have at times won miraculous victories, though at other times suffered devastating defeat. This Very Short Introduction illuminates the revolutionaries, their strategies, their successes and failures, and the ways in which revolutions continue to dominate world events and the popular imagination. Starting with the city-states of ancient Greece and Rome, Jack Goldstone traces the development of revolutions through the Renaissance and Reformation, the Enlightenment and liberal constitutional revolutions such as in America, and their opposite--the communist revolutions of the 20th century. He shows how revolutions overturned dictators in Nicaragua and Iran and brought the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, and examines the new wave of non-violent "color" revolutions-the Philippines' Yellow Revolution, Ukraine's Orange Revolution--and the Arab Uprisings of 2011-12 that rocked the Middle East. Goldstone also sheds light on the major theories of revolution, exploring the causes of revolutionary waves, the role of revolutionary leaders, the strategies and processes of revolutionary change, and the intersection between revolutions and shifting patterns of global power. Finally, the author examines the reasons for diverse revolutionary outcomes, from democracy to civil war and authoritarian rule, and the likely future of revolution in years to come. About the Series: Oxford's Very Short Introductions series offers concise and original introductions to a wide range of subjects--from Islam to Sociology, Politics to Classics, Literary Theory to History, and Archaeology to the Bible. Not simply a textbook of definitions, each volume in this series provides trenchant and provocative--yet always balanced and complete--discussions of the central issues in a given discipline or field. Every Very Short Introduction gives a readable evolution of the subject in question, demonstrating how the subject has developed and how it has influenced society. Eventually, the series will encompass every major academic discipline, offering all students an accessible and abundant reference library. Whatever the area of study that one deems important or appealing, whatever the topic that fascinates the general reader, the Very Short Introductions series has a handy and affordable guide that will likely prove indispensable.

Download or read book Revolutions written by Peter Furtado and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2020-09-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading historians from around the world reflect on the great revolutions of modern history and explore their lasting legacies. Whether it’s because their rhetoric—“liberty, fraternity, equality”—articulates those ideals to which we most aspire, or because we are shocked by the destructive forces that are unleashed when social conventions break down, revolutions hold a distinct place in the popular imagination. And while all revolutions are born of civil unrest, each is unique in that it’s a product of its time, its society, and its people, and the outcomes vary dramatically, from liberal reform to cruel dictatorship. In Revolutions, the follow-up to the bestselling Histories of Nations, twenty-four leading historians—most writing about their country of origin—consider global revolutions, from England’s Glorious Revolution of 1688 and the American Revolution in 1776 to the Irish Revolution in the early twentieth century and the Arab Spring of 2011. Reflecting not only on their causes, crises, and outcomes, but also on their legacies and implications in today’s society, these historians answer key questions: What were the main events and dominant ideologies? Who were the leading protagonists? Are revolutionary pasts remembered critically in national history, mythologized, or even hidden? And why? Authoritative and enlightening, Revolutions reflects on the events, ideologies, and legacies of twenty-four revolutions from the seventeenth century to the present day, providing an overview of some of the most politically significant events in modern history.
Download or read book R volutions written by Félix Chartreux and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les printemps arabes ont montré au monde que l'idéal révolutionnaire, qu'on avait cru enterré sous les décombres du mur de Berlin puis réservé aux manuels d'histoire, n'est pas mort : la révolution semble redevenue le moteur, ou du moins l'un des moteurs, de l'histoire. Or, parmi les acteurs, les témoins et tous les spectateurs de ces révolutions, se fait sentir un "besoin d'histoire". Mots d'ordre, symboles et icônes : citoyens, militants, hommes politiques et journalistes n'ont de cesse d'en appeler au passé, de 1789 aux révolutions de fleurs ou de velours du début du XXIe siècle. Les révolutions semblent porter en elles le poids de l'histoire. En 240 pages, l'ouvrage aborde d'une part les révolutions dans le monde selon un fil chronologique et étudie, d'autre part, des objets transversaux dans des pages thématiques qui travaillent sur le temps long (les femmes, les modes de combats, les symboles, les figures de la Liberté guidant le peuple). S'appuyant sur l'historiographie la plus récente, associant l'analyse d'images et le récit historique, il met en lumière la naissance et la circulation des idées, des symboles, des pratiques et des références révolutionnaires de la Glorieuse Révolution anglaise aux plus récents événements de Tunis ou du Caire.

Download or read book The Fraternal Atlantic 1770 1930 written by Jessica L. Harland-Jacobs and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-14 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines Freemasonry in the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Atlantic world. Drawing on fresh empirical evidence, the chapters position fraternalism as a critical component of Atlantic history. Fraternalism was a key strategy for people swept up in the dislocations of imperialism, large-scale migrations, and the socio-political upheavals of revolution. Ranging from confraternities to Masonic lodges to friendly societies, fraternal organizations offered people opportunities to forge linkages across diverse and widely separated parts of the world. Using six case studies, the contributors to this volume address multiple themes of fraternal organizations: their role in revolutionary movements; their intersections with the conflictive histories of racism, slavery, and anti-slavery; their appeal for diasporic groups throughout the Atlantic world, such as revolutionary refugees, European immigrants in North America, and members of the Jewish diaspora; and the limits of fraternal "brothering" in addressing the challenges of modernity. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Atlantic Studies: Global Currents.

This book was released on 2017-04 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans quelle mesure le concept de révolution peut-il être une clé de lecture de l'histoire mondiale ? Quels sont les points de convergence des phénomènes révolutionnaires au-delà de leurs diversités dans le temps et l'espace ? Françoise Martinetti présente seize épisodes révolutionnaires qui ont entraîné des transformations politiques et sociales majeures, depuis l'époque moderne jusqu'à aujourd'hui. En reconnaissant à chacun la singularité du contexte, des événements et des acteurs, elle les inscrit dans le mouvement plus vaste de la libération des peuples dont la première manifestation moderne serait la révolution anglaise. Un fil conducteur se dégage : contestation de l'absolutisme, inspiration marxiste, quête de la modernité jusqu'aux révolutions plus récentes issues de la fin d'un monde bipolaire et de la montée des intégrismes. Cet ouvrage est construit pour être utile aux enseignants des écoles, collèges et lycées d'un point de vue scientifique et didactique. Il comprend des documents historiques, des cartes, des chronologies et des pistes pédagogiques du cycle 3 à la terminale qui explicitent les références aux différents programmes en histoire, en histoire des arts, en enseignement moral et civique ou en philosophie. Il est également accessible à tous les lecteurs désireux de comprendre la place des révolutions dans l'Histoire du monde d'hier à aujourd'hui.
