Dynamics of counterrevolution in Europe, 1870-1956;: An analytic framework (Harper torchbooks, TB 1579)

To probe into counterrevolution is to venture onto treacherous ground. The word-concept "counterrevolution" carries a considerable political and emotional load. The establishment dislikes it because of its censorious connotations, and left-wing dissenters embrace it for its critical thrust. Because it is so politically charged, historians and social scientists tend to shy away from it, insisting on its incompatibility with their value-free labors. [by] Arno J. Mayer.
