revolutions for us.
Had to pick 2 of russian, chinese, french and american revolutions for that
subject (history revolutions).
That seems fair enough to me.
To take this discussion right off-topic... I have some spare time at the
moment, so I'm reading Immanuel Wallerstein's "The Modern World-System",
among
other things. A greater knowledge of history would help here, of course, as it
is on the basis of macro-historical analysis that Wallerstein develops his
theoretical position. His interpretation of history (via an engagement with
the literature) is, not surprisingly, very controversial, but that's to be
expected for many reasons.
