Royalist Political Thought During the French Revolution (Hardcover, New)

This book treats two basic subjects: (1) royalist explanations of
the causes of the French Revolution, and (2) royalist defenses of
royalist political positions. The royalists began with a simplistic
conspiracy theory of history--the Old Regime was right. But then
they came up with increasingly sophisticated explanations, thereby
making an important contribution to historical explanation. In
political thought, they eventually offered a tempered defense of
the Old Regime, a call for political elitism in the face of the
chaos unleashed by the Revolution, and an early explanation of the
organic theory of history, a true contribution to political
thought.
