Author: Geoffrey Crossick
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136224386
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
Crossick and Haupt provide a major overview of the social, economic, cultural and political development of the petite bourgeoisie in modern Europe, a group until now largely neglected by European social historians. Through comparative analysis the authors examine issues such as the centrality of small enterprise to industrial change, the importance of family and locality to the petit-bourgeois world, the search for stability and status and the associated political move to the right. Crossick and Haupt have written an invaluable and authoritative assessment of the emergence of a distinctive petit-bourgeois cultural and political identity. It will be of interest to both undergraduate students and academic historians.

Revolution and the European Experience, 1789-1914
Author: Ken Post
Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan
ISBN: 9780312222567
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
Political scientist Post argues that the Europe that is now being united was originally the product of the French Revolution in 1789-95, and was then formed by the emergent industrial capitalism. He explains that the further revolution of the new working class feared by industrial capitalists did not transpire because the working classes were incorporated as part of the dynamics of capitalist development. The communist prediction of revolution he attributes to the failed upsurges of 1848-49.
