revolutions: the locomotive of history

[black magick hustla]

marx theorized that through revolution, class structure and mode of productions change. i know that the bourgeois revolutions of late 18th century and 19th century consolidated the bourgeosie as the political, controlling class and finally teminated with feudal relations. however, i want to know about examples of past, groundshakng revolutions before the bourgeois ones that consolidated modes of productions before the capitalist one.

[More Fire for the People]

The problem is that past modes of production didn't consolidate production. Off the top of my head though I would say English resitance to Roman rule, Scottish War of Independence, a slew of European peasants' revolts, and a lot of revolts and revolutions in China.

[Janus]

It really depends on your definition of "consolidation of modes of production". BUt from a general perspective I can think of two possible cases: the revolt that brought the Ming dynasty into power and the Taiping Rebellion.
