2. WHAT IS REVOLUTION
A revolution (from the Latin revolutio, "a turn around") is a
fundamental change in power or organizational structures that takes place in a
relatively short period of time.
Albert argues that revolution involves a change in institutions, in four key areas:
politics, economy, gender, or culture.
“The revolution is not an apple that falls when it is ripe. You have to make it
fall.”Che Guevara.
Aristotle described two types of political revolution:
1. Complete change from one constitution to another
2. Modification of an existing constitution.

Revolutions have occurred through human history and vary widely in terms
of methods, duration, and motivating ideology. Their results include major
changes in culture, economy, and socio-political institutions.
Scholarly debates about what does and does not constitute a revolution
center on several issues. Early studies of revolutions primarily analyzed
events in European history from a psychological perspective, but more
modern examinations include global events and incorporate perspectives
from several social sciences, including sociology and political science.
Several generations of scholarly thought on revolutions have generated
many competing theories and contributed much to the current
understanding of this complex phenomenon.
The Iranian Revolution of the late 20th century provides yet another model
of revolution. The Islamist revolution of 1979 sought the radical
transformation of a state and society perceived by many as overly secular
and tainted by Western values and culture. The Iranian Revolution placed
nationalist, Islamic values at the center of government and society and
became yet another example of modern, revolutionary change. “The Middle

3. A revolutionary person fearlessly advocates radical change. Revolutionary
people and ideas challenge the status quo and might be violent or willing to
upset the natural order to achieve their goals.
Like the word revolve, it's all about turning things around. Revolutionary
leaders want to change the world by any means necessary. Before he was
the coolest face on a T-shirt, Che Guevara was ready to die for change in
South America (and in fact, he did).

Why a Revolution is start:
There are times when it's necessary to fight against things that have
become so wrong that they should no longer be. Things that were once
small that have become big, but are no less wrong, must be made small
again; a revolution, or a complete circle, is needed. Whether you want
freedom from another country, or you want to overthrow an oppressive
government, every fight is the same. A revolution (from the Latin revolutio,
"a turnaround") is a significant change that usually occurs in a short period
of time. Revolutions have happened throughout human history and vary
widely in terms of methods, duration, motivating ideology, and the number
of participating revolutionaries. Their results include major changes in
culture, economy, and socio-political institutions.
