What is Political Revolution?
Hamilton Molyneaux
Political Revolution
A political revolution is an upheaval in which the government is replaced, or the form of the government is altered, but in which property relations are predominantly left intact. Political Revolutions are contrasted with social revolutions in which old property relations are overturned. Such political revolutions are envisioned to overthrow undemocratic governments of bureaucratic privilege, replacing them with governments based on workers' democracy while maintaining state owned property relations.
The Hunger Game Revolution
The Hunger Games show of a dictator and government that uses its power to make dozens, die year after year. In the process that they revolt against the government. They lose almost hundreds of people but they greatly benefit because they earn their freedom. Due to their actions and of what they had to cost along the way, they no longer had to live in fear each day.
American Revolution
The American Revolution was a political upheaval that took place between 1765 and 1783 during which colonists in the Thirteen American Colonies rejected the British monarchy and aristocracy, overthrew the authority of Great Britain, and founded the USA. The American Revolution was the result of a series of social, political, and intellectual transformations in American society, government and ways of thinking. Protests continued to escalate, as in the Boston Tea Party of 1773, and the British responded by imposing punitive laws on Massachusetts in 1774. The other colonies rallied behind Massachusetts and set up a Congress to take charge.
French Revolution
The French Revolution was an influential period of social and political upheaval in France that lasted from 1789 until 1799. Inspired by radical and liberal ideas, the Revolution profoundly altered the course of modern history, marking the global decline of theocracies and absolute monarchy while replacing them with republics and democracies. Through the Revolutionary Wars, it unleashed a wave of global conflicts that extended from the Caribbean to the Middle East.
