Revolution And Counter Revolution by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira
This work traces modern revolutionary movements to a long intellectual and cultural assault on Christian civilization, arguing that the Enlightenment and its successors systematically undermined the Church, monarchy, family, property and social hierarchy and then deployed political, legal and cultural means to complete the revolution; it analyzes the methods and stages by which revolutionary elites subvert institutions and public opinion, and warns of the social consequences of accepting revolutionary principles. It calls for a deliberate counter-revolutionary strategy rooted in Catholic doctrine and traditional social structures, urging organized resistance by lay and clerical leaders to restore order, defend private property, and reestablish moral and political authority. Throughout, the book combines historical narrative, doctrinal argument and tactical prescriptions aimed at halting and reversing the spread of modern radical ideologies.
