Europe in the Eighteenth Century is a social history of Europe in all its aspects: economic, political, diplomatic military, colonial-expansionist. Crisply and succinctly written, it describes Europe not through a history of individual countries, but in a common context during the three quarters of a century between the death of Louis XIV and the industrial revolution in England and the social and political revolution in France. It presents the development of government, institutions, cities, economies, wars, and the circulation of ideas in terms of social pressures and needs, and stresses growth, interrelationships, and conflict of social classes as agents of historical change, paying particular attention to the role of popular, as well as upper- and middle-class, protest as a factor in that change. - Häftad, Engelska, 1995

In this pathbreaking work originally published in 1980, the late George Rude examines the role played by ideology in a wide range of popular rebellions in Europe and the Americas from the middle ages to the early twentieth century. Rude was a champion of the role of working people in the making of history, and Ideology and Popular Protest was the first book devoted to the comparative study of popular political ideas and consciousness in both preindustrial cultures and the age of the Industrial Revolution. According to Rude, the development of modern revolutionary struggles depended on a crucial merger of the culture and ideas of the common people with the radical ideologies of intellectuals. In a new foreword, Harvey Kaye reviews Rude's career as a pioneer in the critical study of social movements and highlights the enduring value of Ideology and Popular Protest as a classroom text. - Häftad, Engelska, 2014

Who took part in the widespread disturbances that periodically shook 18th-century London? What really motivated the food rioters who helped to spark off the French Revolution? How did the movement of agricultural laborers destroying new machinery spread from one village to another in the English countryside? How did the sans-culottes organize in revolutionary Paris? George RudŽ was the first historian to ask such questions and in doing so he identified "the faces in the crowd" in some of the crucial episodes in modern European history. An established classic of "history from below," The Crowd in History is remarkable above all for the clarity with which it deals with the full sweep of complex events. Whether in Belgrade or Jakarta, crowds continue to make history, and George RudŽ's work retains all its freshness and relevance for students of history and politics and general readers alike. This is an innovative discussion of the role of ordinary people in some of the turning-points of European history. - E-bokSpanska, 2018

El Antiguo Régimen se derrumbó ante la embestida de la Revolución francesa. En Francia, bajo los ideales de "Liberté, égalité, fraternité" se decapitó al rey y se dio la bienvenida a la república, se proclamó que todos "los hombres nacen y permanecen libres e iguales en derechos" y se aprobó el sufragio universal masculino. En París, bajo el himno de la Marsellesa, la Revolución desembocó en el Terror, ocaso del horizonte de concordia y fraternidad, y la razón moderna se encarnaba en un nuevo Imperio que se extendería por Europa con las victorias de los ejércitos napoleónicos. La Europa revolucionaria, obra maestra que se ha convertido en un clásico fundamental, ofrece una crónica previa a la gran agitación y describe tanto el desarrollo de la Revolución en Francia como el gobierno de Napoleón y su impacto e influencia en el resto de Europa y el mundo. George Rudé, autoridad y referencia en historia social, presenta cómo aquella sociedad revolucionaria, que transformó radicalmente el orden social y derribó el Antiguo Régimen y sus instituciones políticas, acabó configurando un Imperio.
