"This is a structuralist approach to why revolutions happen based on narrative comparing the revolutions in France (1789), Russia (1917) and China (1949). The author's argument is tendentious, but there are good analyses of the three revolutions and the reader gets a lot of insight into the academic debates about these powerful social movements and why they happen."
"The actual content of this book probably warrants only four stars, but I had to give it five because in writing the paper for it I was able to work through a lot of my own ideas about ideology and causality. I also think her model is far superior to Moore's, and her narratives are much more interesting. Plus, Theda gets points for just being really cool. Much love for the Skocpol."
