About this title

Synopsis:

A challenge to received ideas about 'revolution in English seventeenth- and eighteenth-century history.

Book Description:

This book counters the Marxist interpretation of the 1640s and the 'English Revolution' by developing our new understanding of the non-revolutionary nature of the world after 1660: it challenges the appropriateness of 'revolution' as a description of events like those of 1688, 1776 and the Industrial Revolution, emphasising instead the idea of 'rebellion'.
