Economic development and revolutions. A cross-national investigation
In the field of civil war studies, there is a consensus that the risk of war decreases as income increases. Nevertheless, such consensus has not been reached in the field of civil resistance and unarmed revolutions. This paper proposes a curvilinear framework positing two opposite trends in economic development. On the one hand, it increases the state resources for preventing illegal displacement and makes revolt costly for rebels. Conversely, it…
The Fifth Generation of Revolution Studies. A Systematic Review
In the 21st century, a fifth generation of revolution studies has emerged, characterized by several key features. It is distinguished by macro and systemic approaches to analyzing revolutionary processes, the study of specific trends (such as urban civic revolutions) and contemporary factors, including the role of information technologies. Researchers of this generation pay special attention to revolutionary waves and their diffusion, clearly dif…

On coupvolution: A type of revolutionary episodes in the modern West African context
The theory of revolutions has faced major challenges, one of the most important being how to conceptualize revolutions. The theory currently needs novel foci. One potential novel concept is "coupvolution," which can be defined as a type of revolutionary events with elements of both a coup and a revolution. We highlight the importance of a recent failed coupvolution in Nigeria. We examine Mark Beissinger's conceptualization of coupvolution, and pr…

The Fifth Generation of Revolution Studies. Part I: When, Why, and How Did It Emerge
There are grounds for claiming that a new (‘fifth’) generation of revolution studies has emerged in the 21st century. It can be noted that the characteristics of this generation are as follows: a tendency toward a macro-level outlook, encompassing both historical and geographical dimensions, coupled with a propensity toward a systemic approach; study of distinct types of revolutionary processes, such as Mark Beissinger’s ‘urban civic revolutions’…
New Wave of Thinking About Revolutions
The Phenomenon of “Coupvolution” in Africa
The article is dedicated to the phenomenon of “coupvolution” (the term originally mentioned by researcher Nathan Toronto), which is a combination of revolution and military coup. This phenomenon was first noticed and described during events in Egypt in 2011, and, consequently, such events have begun occurring all around Africa. This article is focused on the specifics of the coupvolution phenomenon and its most notable examples. Mostly, the pheno…
