The Last Revolutionaries
Situating the trial of Gracchus Babeuf and his co-conspirators in its poisonous political setting, Mason provides a new perspective on the French Revolution’s downfall. She examines the Conspiracy of Equals and the show trial of the man whom Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels considered the first revolutionary communist, given maximum publicity by the corrupt ruling Directory in hopes of rallying public opinion for their centrist regime. Mason seeks …
Friends of Freedom
From the Sons of Liberty to British reformers, Irish patriots, French Jacobins, Haitian revolutionaries and American Democrats, the greatest social movements of the Age of Atlantic Revolutions grew as part of a common, interrelated pattern. In this new transnational history, Micah Alpaugh demonstrates the connections between the most prominent causes of the era, as they drew upon each other's models to seek unprecedented changes in government. As…

R onen S teinberg . The Afterlives of the Terror
Innovatively applying modern debates over mass trauma and transitional justice to the study of the Thermidorian era, Ronen Steinberg’s The Afterlives of the Terror: Facing the Legacies of Mass Violence in Postrevolutionary France examines how French Revolutionaries sought to come to terms with the violence of the Terror (1792–94). As after more recent atrocities, Steinberg argues the French had to find ways “to transform a series of chaotic exper…

La surveillance révolutionnaire dans l’Ouest en guerre
The product of twin journées d’études held at the Université de Poitiers and the Université de Rennes 2, this edited volume examines the surveillance committees of Western France during the French Revolution’s radical phase. Collecting twelve local studies across a short 153 pages, attempting both quantitative analysis and thick description of surviving regional archival sources, the volume calls attention to the complex internal dynamics of a re…

The Right of Resistance to Oppression
Perhaps the least self-evident right of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen was that of “resistance to oppression.” Emerging from the Anglo-American rights tradition as a check on corrupt power, the term was adapted by the marquis de Lafayette for French politics in his Declaration of Rights proposed on July 11, 1789. Following the Bastille's fall and the contestations of the early to mid-Revolution, resistance to oppression would co…

Controlling Paris
While most scholars of Paris’ Age of the Barricades have focused upon insurgents’ ideologies and identities, Jonathan M. House turns attention instead to the ‘organisations, attitudes and use of French militarised force’ as they confronted diverse popular campaigns and insurgencies. Though the book is not as expansive as its title—House moves through 1789–1847 in a single chapter based upon secondary sources—he thereafter develops a detailed stud…
The British Origins of the French Jacobins
Approaching the Revolutionary era from a transnational perspective, this article explores the rich exchanges and collaborations between radical British and French popular societies. Both early French political and antislavery societies adapted their associational strategies from Anglo-American examples – indeed, borrowing the word ‘club’ itself to describe such organizations. Most significantly, in November 1789, correspondence from the London Re…

A Self-Defining "Bourgeoisie" in the Early French Revolution
Though recent scholars have argued that no self-defining "bourgeois" identities existed during the French Revolution, such perspectives do not consider the pivotal role Milice bourgeoise forces played in the Bastille insurrection and France's broader social upheavals of mid-1789. Combatting perceived lower-class disorder, explicitly "bourgeois" units composed of propertied citydwellers mobilized to seize control of and direct the central uprising…

The politics of PCBs‐a viewpoint
This paper deals with Canadian and American regulation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) as a hazardous substance. It is argued that PCB policy was initiated in response to a health crisis. Later the economic implications of strict crisis legislation became apparent and conflicts developed along these lines. This has made for a politically laden debate over scientific information, and a more cautious approach to political action on PCBs. This c…
Politics of PCBs — a viewpoint
This paper deals with the politics of PCBs in Canada and America in the 1980s, since the substance has been banned, and generally treated as a potential hazard (see Part One: Politics of PCBs). The general argument then, does not differ greatly from that of Part One of this paper. However, the context in which PCB politics take place in the 1980s has been shaped by the developments in PCB regulation in the 1970s. Several cases are outlined to ill…
