Description

"An impressive contribution both to the history of ideas and to political philosophy." -- Alasdair MacIntyre, author of After Virtue

Once of central importance to left historians and activists alike, recently the concept of the "bourgeois revolution" has come in for sustained criticism from both Marxists and conservatives. In this magisterial work, Neil Davidson offers theoretical and historical insights about the nature of revolutions. Through extensive research and comprehensive analysis, Davidson demonstrates that what's at stake is far from a stale issue for the history books -- understanding that these struggles of the past offer far-reaching lessons for today's radicals.

"A monumental work. Neil Davidson has given us what is easily the most comprehensive account yet of the 'life and times' of the concept of 'bourgeois revolution' [and] has also provided us with a refined set of theoretical tools for understanding the often complex interactions between political revolutions which overturn state institutions and social revolutions which involve a more thoroughgoing transformation of social relations." -- Colin Mooers, author of The Making of Bourgeois Europe

"Davidson's book is one of immense and impressive erudition. His knowledge of the history of Marxist theory and historiography is as detailed as it is comprehensive, and must be well-nigh unrivalled. The endless, complex debates that characterize the Marxist tradition are distilled with clarity and illumination." -- Times Literary Supplement

"A brilliant and fascinating book, wide-ranging and lucidly written." -- Jairus Banaji, author of Theory as History
