Download A Macat Analysis of Eric Hobsbawm's The Age of Revolution: Europe 1789-1848 AudioBook Free
In The Era of Trend, renowned British Marxist historian Eric Hobsbawm targets the historical period from the finish of the 18th hundred years to the center of the 19th. He concludes that the "dual revolutions" of that time period - the French Trend and the English Industrial Trend - changed what sort of whole world thought about politics and power, and fundamentally molded the modern time. This is the first in Hobsbawm's acclaimed trilogy of literature on the "long" 19th hundred years - from 1789 to 1914. In The Era of Trend he talks about how the dual revolutions created conditions where capitalism and liberalism could rise and dominate. But while prices such as liberty, free trade, and meritocracy resulted in the formation of the middle category, this leap forward essentially excluded the urban, laboring poor, resulting in the emergence of socialism and the working category. Although now over 50 years old, the written text remains an excellent launch to modern background and has been read by millions worldwide.
