Abstract
In their histories, Revolutions have various achievements. Revolutions have brought about re-distribution of farmlands, put an end to oppressive systems, eliminated hereditary privileges of the traditional aristocracy, promoted literacy, education, and more hygienic cares, sense of honour in respect to the national power, and independence for many people. Revolutions are international phenomena not only since they cause in most cases military conflicts between countries, but also because their ideas and objectives are disseminated throughout the world. When revolutionary ideas find their way into other countries and nations are attracted by them, such ideas are able to advance revolutions, and create new waves of revolutionary uprisings with similar objectives. The authors of the present article seek to study the concept of “export of revolution” in a comparison between two classical revolutions of the 18th and 20th Centuries belonging respectively to Liberal and Marxists traditions, and show similarities and dissimilarities between the two.
