Instead of liberating the country, the communists destroyed the old order and replaced it with a repressive system that would dominate every aspect of Chinese life. In an epic of revolution and violence which draws on newly opened party archives, interviews and memoirs, Frank Dikötter interweaves the stories of millions of ordinary people with the brutal politics of Mao’s court.

¡Embárquese en un viaje en el tiempo hacia el corazón del pasado de Europa! ¿Le hipnotiza el gran tapiz de la historia de Europa?¿Busca desentrañar las historias y personalidades que han dado forma a un continente?¿Le interesan las intrigas políticas, revoluciones culturales y avances científicos en la historia europea?

La Revolución rusa es un ejemplo perfecto de cómo la historia puede reducirse hasta volverse excesivamente pesada y compleja. Para desentrañar la Revolución rusa (de hecho, las revoluciones rusas) hay que empezar por considerar acontecimientos que sucedieron siglos antes de febrero de 1917. Solo así podremos comprender la cantidad de acontecimientos comprimidos en los breves meses del decisivo año 1917.

The State and Revolution (1917), by Vladimir Lenin, describes the role of the State in society, the necessity of proletarian revolution, and the theoretic inadequacies of social democracy in achieving revolution to establish the dictatorship of the proletariat. Lenin began the composition of an early draft of State and Revolution while in exile in Switzerland in 1916, under the title "Marxism on the State". "Soviets", legislative bodies of workers and peasants were the de facto governments of Petrograd and many smaller cities.

As Joshua Rubenstein writes in his preface, “Leon Trotsky haunts our historical memory. A preeminent revolutionary figure and a masterful writer, Trotsky led an upheaval that helped to define the contours of twentieth-century politics.” In this lucid and judicious evocation of Trotsky’s life, Joshua Rubenstein gives us an interpretation for the twenty-first century.

During the 1960s and 1970s, the images of two men came to dominate the iconography of left-wing movements: Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. The story of the revolution these two men led in Cuba became a fable that drove and encouraged other revolutionary movements around the world. The Cuban Revolution is certainly astonishing. Beginning with fewer than 100 armed men, the Fidelistas took on a government that had a well-equipped army, air force, and navy. On paper, the handful of rebels stood no chance.

Populist rage, ideological fracture, economic and technological shocks, geopolitical dangers and an international system studded with catastrophic risk — the early decades of the 21st century may be one of the most revolutionary periods in modern history. But they are not the first. Humans have lived, and thrived, through more than one great realignment. What makes an age a revolutionary one? And how do they end? In this major new work, Fareed Zakaria masterfully investigates eras that have shattered and shaped humanity.

The German Peasants’ War was the greatest popular uprising in Western Europe before the French Revolution. In 1524 and 1525, it swept across Germany with astonishing speed as well over a hundred thousand people massed in armed bands to demand a new and more egalitarian order. The peasants took control of vast areas of southern and middle Germany, torching and plundering the monasteries, convents, and castles that stood in their way. But they proved no match for the forces of the lords.

¿Fue la Revolución Francesa el mito fundacional del mundo contemporáneo? ¿Recogía en su espíritu todo lo bueno y noble que habita en el alma humana? ¿Representaba el bien absoluto y cualquier cosa que se alejara de ella era el mal? Pocos acontecimientos históricos son tan conocidos como la Revolución Francesa, y, al mismo tiempo, tan poco entendidos. La historia se aceleró en Francia durante la última década del siglo XVIII y sus consecuencias no tardaron en afectar a todo el mundo gracias a Napoleón Bonaparte, el más ilustre de los hijos de la revolución.

Oliver Cromwell's death in 1658 sparked a period of unrivaled turmoil and confusion in English history. In less than two years, there were close to ten changes of government; rival armies of Englishmen faced each other across the Scottish border; and the Long Parliament was finally dissolved after two decades. Why was this period so turbulent, and why did the republic, backed by a formidable standing army, come crashing down in such spectacular fashion?
