Table of ContentsReviews'A concise, well-argued, and original take on revolutions over the long span of history from the 1789 French Revolution to the 2011 Arab Spring. Kamrava is thoughtful and judicious in his theorizing, wide-ranging in both his cases and his coverage of them, and informative in his narrative accounts. In recent years we have not seen any works of such comparative sweep. Succinct, comprehensive, and original.' John Foran, University of California, Santa Barbara 'This thoughtful, incisive history opens up new horizons by positioning revolution in a new framework whereby revolutions are understood as planned, spontaneous, or negotiated. Through these categories and shrewd, substantively rich cases studies, Kamrava calls on us to reconsider how revolutions have and will unfold.'
