The English “glorious revolution” of 1688, as a result of which the last of the kings of the Stuarts of the Jacob II was overthrown, is considered not only peaceful and bloodless, but also almost patriarchal, because it was equally supported by all the most conservative layers of the then English society - from the highest aristocracy to the peasantry.
Stephen Pinkus, analyzing the changes that the “glorious revolution” of not only Great Britain, its overseas colonies, but throughout Europe, came to an unexpected conclusion: it was this first modern revolution that laid the foundation for the society of liberalism, tolerance, triumph of the law, and economic and political freedom
