Description

Georges Sorel's Reflections on Violence is a provocative work that has sparked intense debate and discussion. First published in 1908, it remains a significant text in the history of political thought. This edition features an introduction by Jeremy Jennings, setting the work in its historical context and exploring its major themes. The book examines the role of violence, myth, and the general strike as means of transforming society. Sorel's ideas have been influential among various groups, including Marxists and Fascists, who saw them as a way to revitalize the capitalist spirit. A chronology of Sorel's life and a list of further reading are included in this edition, providing readers with a deeper understanding of the author's background and the broader intellectual landscape in which his work was written.
