7. Summing up: Historians see a cycle to many revolutions 1.Moderates take power –but can't solve problems through peaceful, democratic processes 2.Moderates pushed aside by extremists –Extremists vie for power until one emerges 3.Strong leader emerges & proclaims the revolution is finished –e.g. Napoleon, rise of Hitler, Stalin, Castro, etc.
