Features: The French Revolution is a major event in modern history, with profound significance for France and the world. For a long time, the study of the French Revolution in academia has yielded abundant results, becoming quite comprehensive and in-depth. However, discussions from a legal perspective in the field of law have lagged behind. Dr. Shi Danbiao's book, "A Study on Constitutional Theory and Practice during the French Revolution (1789-1814)," is the first monograph in domestic academia on constitutional research during the French Revolution. Constitutionalism began in the British bourgeois revolution, but the so-called "radicalism" of the French Revolution has left more lessons and experiences worth summarizing for the world. This book selects 25 years of constitutional culture during the French Revolution, integrating legal thought, institutions, and practices from a systematic and dynamic perspective with rich materials and vivid writing. It focuses on analyzing the pros and cons of equality, freedom, and power separation, proposing innovative viewpoints on some issues.
