While most scholars have pointed to the impact of military or capitalist revolutions, Philip S. Gorski argues instead for the importance of a disciplinary revolution unleashed by the Reformation. By refining and diffusing a variety of disciplinary techniques and strategies, such as communal surveillance, control through incarceration, and bureaucratic office-holding, Calvin and his followers created an infrastructure of religious governance and social control that served as a model for the rest of Europe-and the world.Calvinism - Europe - HistoryCalvinism -- Europe -- HistoryChristian sociology -- Reformed Church -- HistoryChurch and state - Europe - HistoryChurch and state -- Europe -- HistoryChurch and state -- Reformed Church -- HistoryChurch and state - Reformed Church - HistoryEurope -- Church historyEurope - Politics and governmentEurope -- Politics and governmentSociology, Christian (Reformed Church) - Historycalvinism, religion, religious studies, early modern europe, european history, sociology, church, government, state power, capitalist revolution, military, disciplinary revolutions, bureaucratic office-holding, communal surveillance, incarceration, control, governance, reformation, protestantism, low countries, brandenburg-prussia, comparative perspective, social disciplining.Calvinism - Europe - History.Calvinism -- Europe -- History.Christian sociology -- Reformed Church -- History.Church and state - Europe - History.Church and state -- Europe -- History.Church and state -- Reformed Church -- History.Church and state - Reformed Church - History.Europe -- Church history.Europe - Politics and government.Europe -- Politics and government.Sociology, Christian (Reformed Church) - History.306.094Gorski Philip S., authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut973893DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910791989803321The Disciplinary Revolution3681387UNINA
