Sanderson (sociology, U. of California at Riverside) presents a review of the sociology of revolutions. He begins by examining the so-called Great Revolutions--the French Revolution of 1789, the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, and the Chinese Revolution of 1911-1949--and follows up with an exploration of some more recent revolutions in the less-developed parts of the world. He then turns to the core concern of the text, which is a critical comparison and assessment of the theoretical explanations that have been proposed by sociologists and other social scientists for the causes, processes, and outcomes of revolution. He also includes a chapter on terrorism and theories of terrorism. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
