This book offers a thorough examination of the concept of "revolution" in political science, analyzing how the understanding of this term has evolved throughout history. The author traces the transformation in meaning from its etymological roots to its present-day usage, highlighting its inherent ambiguity and the lack of consensus among scholars. The work delves into the various theories and interpretations of revolution, categorizing them into three main groups: those emphasizing the transformative aspect, those focusing on the historical event that brings about change, and those considering the historical event regardless of its outcome. The author critiques these different perspectives, arguing for the need for greater precision and clarity in the use of the term "revolution" to effectively classify and understand political phenomena. This book is essential reading for students and scholars of political science, history, and sociology, providing a comprehensive analysis of the concept of revolution and stimulating further research and discussion on its significance in shaping political and social change.
