1848 Revolutions and European Political Thought
'This is an immensely valuable and timely reappraisal of the intellectual imagination, force, and creativity of the 1848 revolutions across Europe. By drawing out both their achievements and limits, the essays allow us to appreciate how these revolutionary movements shaped our democratic modernity, while also illuminating contemporary political challenges.' Karma Nabulsi, University of Oxford
'A profoundly important reappraisal of the revolutions of 1848. In a series of brilliant case-studies, the editors and contributors show that the mid-century insurrections of continental Europe were not a 'failed revolution', but a process of accelerated transformation and differentiation focused around political and social questions that still trouble us today. Essential reading for anyone interested in the history of modern politics and nineteenth-century Europe.' Chris Clark, University of Cambridge
'… this volume provides undeniably new evidence and ideas on numerous topics related to 1848.' Christos Aliprantis, German Historical Institute London Bulletin
'Moggach and Stedman Jones's volume gathers together essays by eminent authorities and highly-credentialed emerging scholars, each one of which makes a substantial contribution, not only to the study of 1848, but to that of revolutions more generally.' Charles Barbour, The European Legacy
