The Word on Revolutions. The Man through Time and History

Abstract

Revolution is a controversial phenomenon in human history. In order to understand its significance, one has to use a lot of subjunctives: what would have happened if... Despite its cruel and violent nature, revolution can become a symbol and an inspiration for many generations. Just like in my country, where people honored the achievements of the October revolution of 1917, although this was achieved through terror and execution of the “people’s enemies” under the leadership of the “Father of Nations”, Stalin. The list of revolutions may vary. It can include social events, varying from changing the political structure through the means of violence, deformation of public relations, or the “reset” of one’s mind as a result of radical changes in the creative work and its evaluation or due to a scientific progress. Revolutions change our attitude toward the world and toward ourselves. In this article, the author tries to follow the entire phenomenon of revolution, and comes to a conclusion that revolutions (overall) have a positive effect on history. Revolution is a sort of creative act, it is a result of an individual’s creative actions. Revolutions reveal the creative potential of the individual.
