Beschreibung
The French Revolution was the culmination of the preceding three centuries and the inspiration or, alternatively, the whipping boy of the two centuries that followed. This is understandable enough, for it was the crucible wherein was forged the ideologies that continue to define political discourse - liberalism, conservatism, democracy, communism, anarchism, nationalism, and terrorism all enter the political arena with the Revolution. This anthology brings together the texts that cover the spectrum of French revolutionary social and political thought. The writings presented range from debates over the rights of man through proposals to equalize the distribution of property in society, to efforts to justify privilege and the corporate state.
