This book shows how the political, economic, military and cultural revolutions of the nineteenth century shaped modern international relations.

A comprehensive account of how revolutions begin, unfold and end, featuring a wide range of cases from across modern world history. Drawing on international relations, sociology, and global history, Lawson outlines the benefits of a 'global historical sociology' of revolutionary change, in which international processes take centre stage.

Exploring the intricate relationship between church and state, this seventeenth-century treatise delves into the political theories and practices of its time. The author, Lawson, presents a critical examination of governance, authority, and the role of religion in public life. Through a blend of philosophical insights and historical context, the work addresses the challenges of maintaining order and justice in a rapidly changing society. Its relevance resonates in contemporary discussions about the intersection of faith and politics.
