Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Revolution 1789-1920 Report has it that Louis XV once said, "Apres moi le deluge." In making this historic observation, however, he displayed no very startling powers of prevision, and his reading of the signs of the times might have been endorsed by any contemporary of average intelligence and education. Towards the end of the eighteenth century it must have been quite obvious that Europe had outgrown her institutions and that changes of a radical nature were perforce approaching, although the extreme imminence of the cyclone was perhaps a subject of general miscalculation. She was palpably oppressed by the survival of an obsolete civilization; her organization was still that of the Middle Ages, her society was still impregnated with the ancient principles of Feudalism and Catholicism, and she had not yet discarded practices and conventions which had lost their utility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Century Book of the American Revolution: The Story of the Pilgrimage of a Party of Young People to the Battlefields of the American Revolution A few years ago the suggestion was made to The Century Company by Mr. John Winfield Scott, a member of the Executive Committee of the National Society Of the Sons of the American Revolution, appointed a committee of one for the Executive Committee, that The Century Company should issue a book in which should be set forth in a manner attractive to young people the principles contended for in the American Revolution, and a description Of the institutions of the Govern ment. The result of this suggestion was embodied in The Century Book for Young Americans, the story of the trip Of a party of young people to the city Of Washington, written by Elbridge S. Brooks and richly illustrated from the great store of material which the publishers possessed. The book was issued in the autumn of 1894, indorsed by the National Society, and with an introduction by General Horace Porter, president-general. Its success has been great, both as a book for children at home and for supplemental reading in schools, and in 1896 it was followed by The Century Book of Famous Americans, written also by Mr. Brooks, telling of the adventures Of the same young people and their well-posted uncle on a journey to the homes of historic Americans, Washington, Hamilton, Webster, Clay, Jefferson, Franklin. Lincoln, Grant, and others. It was issued under the auspices of the National Society of the Daughters Of the American Revolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Revolution HE Republic is bursting from its Eighteenth Century clothes. A sys tem designed for loosely federated states no longer serves. The Twen tieth Century brings a new dawn and a new deal. The day for patching, tinkering and compromises has gone. The time for revolution has arrived. People are not satisfied with their government. Upon one thing both great parties agree, that only under leadership of radi cals can they have chance for success. The law of progress is change, and without progress there can be no stability. When there has been a long time without change, revolution must come to set stabil ity up again. The system of government in the United States has not changed in one hundred years, although in this period there have been more changes in the manner of living and in the organi zation of society, than there were in the previous thousand years. Government has become out of plumb with the times. Change needed amounts to a revolution; not a revolution of blood, but revolution of method, such as that of 1688 in England, which peacefully established the supremacy of Parliament over the King. Today it comes to establish the su premacy of the people in their government. The first American Revolution abolished monar chy and proclaimed the equal right of every citizen in his government. The time was not ripe, however, for the complete working out of the demo cratic idea. For government by king was substi tuted government by machinery. The machine set up was with checks and balances, reserved rights and parchment restrictions. At the base were thir teen states of semi-sovereign power. At the top were Congress and an executive as nearly independ ent as they could be. Supreme above all was a bench of nine judges appointed for life, and in no way answerable to the people. Democracy, through suspicion and inexperience, forged its own chains. They were chains neverthe less. It is fair to believe, that in a period when Europe was all ablaze with revolution, and again ablaze with reaction, these chains were necessary to hold the young republic in its course. Today, how ever, every essential of the first revolution is su preme and uncontested. The chains, which served their purpose, have now for twenty years held us back, so that the younger democracies, in Australia and Europe, have ceased to look to us for guidance.

Download or read book Chinese Women in a Century of Revolution, 1850-1950 written by Kazuko Ono and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning the century from the Taiping Rebellion through the establishment of the People's Republic of China, this is the first comprehensive history of women in modern China. Its scope is broad, encompassing political, economic, military, and cultural history, and drawing upon Chinese and Japanese sources untapped by Western scholars. The book presents new information on a wide range of topics: the impact of Western ideas on women, especially in education; the importance of women in the labor force; the relative independence enjoyed by some women textile workers; the struggle against footbinding; the influence of anarchism; the participation of a women's brigade in the Revolution of 1911; the role of women in the May Fourth Movement; the differences between the more assertive women of South China and the 'traditional' women of the North in organizing for political action; the involvement of peasant women in insurgency and anti-Japanese struggles in the countryside; and the effects of the Marriage Law of 1950. The author has contributed a new preface to this English edition, and Joshua A. Fogel and Susan Mann have written an introduction that places the book in the context of studies of Chinese women, Japanese sinology, and women's history in general. The book has extensive notes, a bibliography, and, as an appendix, a chronology of the history of women in modern China.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America experienced an epochal cycle of revolutionary upheavals and insurgencies during the twentieth century, from the Mexican Revolution of 1910 through the mobilizations and terror in Central America, the Southern Cone, and the Andes during the 1970s and 1980s. In his introduction to A Century of Revolution, Greg Grandin argues that the dynamics of political violence and terror in Latin America are so recognizable in their enforcement of domination, their generation and maintenance of social exclusion, and their propulsion of historical change, that historians have tended to take them for granted, leaving unexamined important questions regarding their form and meaning. The essays in this groundbreaking collection take up these questions, providing a sociologically and historically nuanced view of the ideological hardening and accelerated polarization that marked Latin America’s twentieth century. Attentive to the interplay among overlapping local, regional, national, and international fields of power, the contributors focus on the dialectical relations between revolutionary and counterrevolutionary processes and their unfolding in the context of U.S. hemispheric and global hegemony. Through their fine-grained analyses of events in Chile, Colombia, Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Peru, they suggest a framework for interpreting the experiential nature of political violence while also analyzing its historical causes and consequences. In so doing, they set a new agenda for the study of revolutionary change and political violence in twentieth-century Latin America. Contributors Michelle Chase Jeffrey L.
