Social Origins Of Dictatorship And Democracy: Lord And Peasant In The Making Of The Modern World presents a monumental comparative historical analysis, meticulously examining the pathways different nations took toward modern political systems. This seminal work chronicles the critical role of agrarian class structures—specifically the relationship between landlords and peasants—in shaping the emergence of democratic, fascist, and communist regimes. Barrington Moore, Jr. rigorously argues that the fate of democracy or dictatorship in the modern world was profoundly influenced by the nature of agricultural transformation and the alliances forged or broken among social classes. The text uncovers the deep historical roots of political outcomes, offering a compelling and influential framework for understanding global political development.
