Description
Albert Soboul's study The Sans-Culottes was the first analysis of the role of the small businessmen and shopkeepers of Paris in the Revolution. In this book he has expanded his scope to show how a classical bourgeois revolution spread to become a popular uprising in the countryside and towns that swept away everything that had gone before. Soboul places the events of the Revolution within the broader framework of the social and economic processes of the time, including the American show more Revolution, and continually shows how they foreshadowed the future, not only in France but throughout the world. show lessTags
