| | U.S. Needs A Political Revolution |
 | | It is time for a political revolution to revitalize American democracy and move the country toward social justice. | | | In the midst of the summer congressional recess, Congressman Bernie Sanders asserted today that the United States needs nothing less than a political revolution that will revitalize American democracy and move the country toward social justice. | | | We are making such material available in our efforts to advance understanding of environmental, political, human rights, economic, democracy, scientific, and social justice issues, etc. We believe this constitutes a 'fair use' of any such copyrighted material as provided for in section 107 of the US Copyright Law. |

| | Old Ironsides: Oliver Cromwell and the Puritan Revolution |
| | To the ideas planted by Cromwell and his Puritan peers, we owe most of our religious and political liberty, the inception of capitalism, the birth of the scientific revolution, and the advent of denominationalism. | | | In 1688, after the death of Charles II and his son, Parliament passed a group of laws known as the "Glorious Revolution." They institutionalized the principles for which Oliver and the Puritans fought the civil wars. | | | Charles asked parliament and the nation to submit to his governance. |

| | The Ricci Institute for Chinese-Western Cultural History at the University of San Francisco |
| | In the long history of cultural exchange between China and the West, astronomy was probably the most important area of connection, an area which stimulated many Chinese scientists and scholars to both study new Western methods and to re-examine their own scientific legacy. | | | This Bureau was a department of the supremely important Board of Rites, whose candidates were chosen via competitive examinations in the Chinese civil service. | | | This left the Jesuits at court in a delicate position, for, as in Macau against the Dutch, the Jesuits had supported Ming resistance to the end, including (once again) supervising the casting of cannon and artillery to defend the capitol. |

| | Unit II: Reform and Reaction, 1830-1848 (McClymer) |
| | Utopian Socialism, which had its origin in the early nineteenth century, gave way to a Marxist "scientific" version, which called for a revolutionary struggle of the working class ("proletariat") against "bourgeois" capitalists and against systems of government that supported the rule of the "bourgeoisie," i.e., owners of capital. | | | Given the tendency of British conservatives to see every "reform" proposal as opening the floodgates of revolution on the French model, so strikingly illustrated by Cruikshank's 1819 cartoon and by the Peterloo Massacre, Macaulay had to persuade his fellow members of Parliament that judicious reform would actually forestall revolution. | | | Some, including members of the old nobility and the Catholic Church remained steadfastly opposed to the revolution. |

| | That is why, the Guinean Revolution, as an expression of scientific truth, adheres without reservations to historical and dialectical materialism, which is the social science the content of which has benefited from the contribution of all Peoples struggling for freedom, dignity and historical progress. | | | Any Revolution that does not respect faith would violate democracy and human dignity. | | | The Muslim and the Christian both have room inside the Guinean Revolution, and they will be judged by that Revolution only on the basis of their faithfulness or unfaithfulness to the options of the People and the objectives democratically assigned by the revolutionary movement. |

| | Anatomy of a Revolution in the Social Sciences |
| | This appears all the more surprising when we note that Malkiel (1969:539) spoke of Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962) as a 'sensationally successful book'. | | | Our first association with the term 'revolution' is political in nature; we think of governments being overthrown in a coup d'état and one system of government being replaced by another. | | | It was in the publications and, in particular, in the public debates of the followers of TGG that the rhetoric of revolution, the claim to novelty, 'creativity', and originality, came to the fore, coupled with the claim of a lack of comprehension and support on the part of the older generation of linguists. |

| | Scientific revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In the history of science, the scientific revolution was the period that roughly began with the discoveries of Kepler, Galileo, and others at the dawn of the 17th century, and ended with the publication of the Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica in 1687 by Isaac Newton. | | | The scientific revolution, as a change in theoretical outlook, is normally identified as a four step process (this is not true of 'scientific practice' which is much less clearly definable historically). | | | Since the time of Voltaire, many observers have considered that a revolutionary change in thought, called in recent times a scientific revolution, took place around the year 1600; that is, that there were dramatic and historically rapid changes in the ways in which scholars thought about the physical world and studied it. |

| | The scientific revolutionaries themselves, for all their undoubted and awe-inspiring genius, were not abstract "great minds" standing outside their society and culture. | | | The central moment in establishing our own scientific culture is called the "Scientific Revolution," (although not all historians think that term is appropriate.) The revolution overthrew the authority of the ancient Greek natural philosophers, astronomers and physicians. | | | These potentials of science were not fully developed in the scientific revolution itself, but the potential was there. |
