Reflections on the Revolution in France offers provocative political commentary from the British statesman Edmund Burke, that examines the early stages of the French Revolution. It’s a searing criticism of those in and outside formal government who support the movement’s unconventional methods.
The French Revolution was a decade-long social and political conflict that changed the landscape of modern France. Irish philosopher and politician Edmund Burke of the Whig Party wrote a pamphlet explaining fundamental errors within the revolution’s approach. He believed the fight for freedom was too abstract and needed more sustainable and proven direction. Burke warned that without proper planning and experience, the movement could ultimately devolve into violence.
A staple among political theorists, Reflections on the Revolution in France is a biting declaration of harsh truths and potential consequences. Burke’s critique of the French Revolution foreshadows the demise of one government and the eventual corruption of another.
With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Reflections on the Revolution in France is both modern and readable.

Edmund Burke (1729–1797) was a Dublin-born philosopher and statesman who worked in the British Parliament. He studied at Trinity College before moving to London to attend Middle Temple where he focused on law. Burke quickly gained interest in politics and literature, publishing A Vindication of Natural Society in 1756 followed by A Philosophical Inquiry into the Origin of Our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful in 1757. He officially entered Parliament in 1765, as a secretary to the Whig Party. During his 30-year career, he famously noted his views on war and policy in political pamphlets such as Reflections on the Revolution in France.
Edmund Burke’s thoughts and concerns about one of the most groundbreaking movements in modern history. Reflections on the Revolution in France contains bold arguments criticizing French revolutionaries and their ability to obtain liberty. Burke discusses the need for experienced leaders and solid structure, in lieu of radicals and sudden change.
