Synopsis
War and Revolution is an original re-reading of contemporary history, linking trends of historical revisionism in historiography to an investigation of fundamental philosophical and political categories, such as international civil war, revolution, totalitarianism, and genocide. Losurdo begins from the revisionist theses of Ernst Nolte on the Holocaust and of François Furet on the French Revolution, and ends with the Anglophone imperial revivalists Paul Johnson and Niall Ferguson. Losurdo captivates the reader with his tour de force of the history of modern revolt, giving a new perspective on comparisons between the English, American, French and twentieth-century revolutions.
