FEVER MODEL OF REVOLUTION
Much like an illness, revolutions can also be studied in stages
Convalescence
Crisis Stage
Symptomatic Stage
Incubation Stage
This stage in an illness is when the cause of the sickness first comesinto contact with the individual, infecting them, but not yet causingany symptoms to present themselves.
What would this stage be like in a revolution?
In a revolution, this stage would involve the political, social, intellectual,or economic causes. In some cases, these causes could fester formany years before showing themselves in the form of actualrevolutionary action.
This stage in an illness is when sickness starts to affect the personin observable ways. Temperature may rise. A cough might presentitself. The individual might become weak and queasy.
What would this stage be like in a revolution?
Convalescence
Crisis Stage
Symptomatic Stage
Incubation Stage
In a revolution, this stage would be the first to involve directaction resulting from the social, political, intellectual, or economiccauses of the incubation stage. This stage might involve the publicationof works calling for a change, street level riots by the common people,or more direct attempts at changing the society.
Crisis Stage
Convalescence
Symptomatic Stage
Incubation Stage
In a revolution, this stage would be the make or break part of thestruggle. It may involve conflict where sides for and againstthe revolution compete. This competition could take the form of debate or full-scale war. Successful revolutions survive this stage.Those that do not are usually considered failed rebellions.
This is the critical stage in an illness where two things can happen.The individual either breaks the fever after a heightened stageof illness or the individual gets progressively worse and does not recover.
What would this stagebe like in a revolution?
Convalescence
Crisis Stage
Symptomatic Stage
Incubation Stage
This stage involves recovering from the illness. The individual mightbe weakened from the experience, but he or she will eventually emerge healthy and with new knowledge and experience that mightprevent the illness from occurring again.
What would this stage be like in a revolution?
In a revolution, this stage would involve recovering from the extremedisruptions of the crisis stage. In general, the political, social, intellectual, or economic causes of the revolution must be addressed insome way, though not necessarily to the satisfaction of allrevolutionaries.
