The Diverging Roots of British and Continental Revolutions
The author argues that English civil liberty arose from Protestant religious liberty, shaping rights like trial by jury and press freedom, while French and other continental revolutions, driven by modernity and collectivist faith in humanity, pursued political sovereignty at the expense of religious foundations. He contrasts Puritan England’s end with the Jacobinism of 1790s and 1848, warning that without religious anchoring, liberty degenerates into tyranny.
