On interpretation of French Revolution. The orthodox thesis argued that Revolution was campaigned with revolt of nobility resulted from conflict of classes between the declining Nobility and arising Bourgeoisie.
Concerning to this maixist dialectical classe struggle theory, Recently New criticism was performed by Anglo-American historian and Annaliste. They took a concept of elite as a group theory in stead of a class theory in this thesis, 1 apply a ciculation of elite theory of vilfredo pareto to in the 18th century French Nobility, New elite was formated by anoblis who had anoblissement and this lead to social mobility.
Anoblissement was possible by a letter of patent and official rank and the letter was get the most part. In problem of social mobility bourgeoisie felt troubling sense among nobility, monarchy and himself and that sentiment related to revolutionnary consciousness .
Along to this processs of social mobility, many bourgeoisie took anoblis and that continously increased in number. In first half century, noblesse de Robe who arose through the 16th and 17th century became identified with hoblesse d'e′pe′e who was governing elite.
Especially in second half century some of transformation was performed by nobility.
The nobility accepted value of bourgeoisie and took change on concept of virture and that a part of nobility and upper bourgeosie formated to a group of Enlightenment elite.
They detested to despotic monarchy and at that time divided between administrative elite and non-administrative elite and struggled within them.
Necessarily this conflict brought to Revolution-nary circumstance Economically, a part of Nobility participated in a conduct of early capitalism.
In themes of aristocratic reactions in second half of century there are no certain evidence the exclusivity of nobility was increased in many social areas
In seigneurial reaction it was resulted from increased penetration of capitalism to agricultural community.
In the 18th century Nobility, he was not a class of declined but sustained his socio-economic status. On the other other hand there were many nobility who felt a canflict of sentiment in process of transference from society of orders to society of classes.
