“Revolution is a social expression of the logic of entropy which the science of politics consists in holding at bay. The revolutionary crisis which irrupted in France in 1789 didn’t come out of nowhere, but can be traced back to forces that began to coagulate under the centralizing, absolutist regime of Louis XIV. The contemporary revolutionary crisis can likewise be traced back to the establishment of the progressive, centralizing administrative state by FDR, and especially to the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The common factor in both cases was the destruction of organic authority by a centralized, administrative power animated by a new ideology serving to justify its expansion.” (04/30/24)
