Cerca de la revolución: aproximación al estudio de Carlos Astarita sobre los movimientos comunales

In his book Revolucion en el burgo Carlos Astarita analyses the European urban communal movements, the profile of all social strata involved in the revolts, their structural conditions and motives, the connection with other rebellions, the religious dimension, and the contribution of the communal conflict to the formation of elements of the modern State and to the political theory. The aim of this work is to give an approach to the book’s main contents and style.
