Book Overview

Before the revolution of 1789, politics in France was based on the relationship between the king and the Parlement of Paris. After 1750, the two sides entered into serious conflict about Louis XV's religious, financial and administrative policies, and in 1771 the Parlement was abolished. This book examines the causes of what contemporaries called the Revolution of 1771. It examines government under Louis XV, the role of the Parlement and how politics worked in eighteenth-century France.
