In Goodness beyond Virtue, one of the leading scholars of the French Revolution reconceptualizes Jacobin politics and philosophy and rescues them from recent postmodernist condescension. Higonnet shows Jacobinism's variety and flexibility, as it emerged in the lived practices of exceptional and ordinary people in varied historical situations.
