Three Against the Third Republic

Více o knize

The book offers a comparative analysis of the political ideologies of three influential French counterrevolutionary figures—Maurice Barres, Charles Maurras, and Georges Sorel—active between 1885 and 1914. Despite their differing views on political order, all three rejected liberal democracy and critiqued the Third Republic's institutions. Their ideas significantly influenced the generation leading up to World War I and resonate with later totalitarian movements, making their contributions essential to understanding modern European political history.
