The 21st century has witnessed a considerable and increasing number of political revolutions around the world. This contradicts the popular belief of many experts in the 1970s that revolutions occurred mainly in monarchies and empires. Instead, the revolutions of this century have several new characteristics, which call for a renewed analysis of the subject. This handbook offers a comparative perspective on the new wave of revolutions of the last decade. Presenting case studies on the color revolutions, the Arab revolutions of 2010-2011, and the global wave of revolutions in 2013-2018 that spanned regions ranging from Africa to the Caucasus, it offers a better understanding of the varied forms, features, and historical backgrounds of revolutions, as well as their causes. Accordingly, it highlights recent revolutions in their historical and world-systems contexts. The handbook is divided into seven parts, the first of which examines the history of views on revolution and important aspects of the theory of revolution. The second part analyzes revolutions within long-term historical trends and in their world-system contexts. In turn, the third part explores specific major revolutionary waves in history. The fourth part analyzes the first revolutionary wave of the 21st century (2000-2009), the so-called color revolutions, while the fifth discusses the second wave - the Arab Spring (2010-2013) - as an important turning point. The sixth part is dedicated to analyzing revolutions and revolutionary movements beyond the Arab Spring and some revolutionary events from the third wave that began in 2018. The seventh and final part offers forecasts on the future of revolutions. Given its scope, the book will appeal to scholars and students from various disciplines interested in historical trends, sociopolitical change, contentious politics, social movements, and revolutionary processes involving both nonviolent campaigns and political violence. "Once again, this volume demonstrates the kind of open-minded, systematic analysis that the field of revolutionary studies requires." (Prof. George Lawson, Department of International Relations, Australian National University Canberra).

La société de réseau actuelle offre de nombreuses possibilités d'information, de communication, de mobilité et de flexibilité. Cependant, cela a un effet secondaire caché: cela rend le monde "plat", en d'autres termes: superficiel. Les hiérarchies, les traditions, les élites et les canons fiables et éprouvés par le temps sont sujets à l'érosion. Dans un monde aussi lissé et «horizontal», les institutions artistiques peinent à définir leur rôle. Après tout, les institutions existent dans une tradition de «verticalité»: profondeur historique, traditions, valeurs, dignité et certitude. Institutional Attitudes étudie l'identité que les institutions artistiques pourraient avoir à l'avenir. Pourront-ils retrouver de la profondeur et de la hauteur? Et est-ce souhaitable? Et si oui, à quoi ressemblera cette nouvelle verticalité? Ou sont-ils meilleurs pour développer des stratégies horizontales pour mieux répondre au monde «plat»? «Lorsque la planéité règne, nous ressentons tous le besoin de nous lever pour prendre l'air. C'est exactement cet espace de respiration que Institutional Attitudes espère créer. "
