Part II The Counter Revolution

CHAPTER I: The Counter-Revolution Is a Reaction

1. THE COUNTER-REVOLUTION: A SPECIFIC AND DIRECT FIGHT AGAINST THE REVOLUTION

            If such is the Revolution, what is the Counter-Revolution? In the literal sense of the word - therefore stripped of the illegitimate and demagogic connotations given it in everyday language - the Counter-Revolution is a reaction. That is to say, it is an action directed against another action. It is to the Revolution what, for example, the Counter-Reformation is to the Pseudo-Reformation.
