	The Corrective Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Corrective Revolution was the name of Anwar Sadat's change of policies after assuming power in Egypt, after the death of Nasser.
		The Corrective Revolution is also the name used for the military-pragmatist faction's takeover within the Baath party regime of Syria in 1970, bringing Hafez al-Assad to power.
		It was directed against the dominant ultra-leftwing faction of the party, and to a large extent provoked by what Assad and his supporters saw as adventureous and irresponsible foreign policies (notably the Syrian intervention in the Black September conflict in Jordan).

		Both these acts, in which are heard the unerring, unambiguous oracles of revolution policy, instead of countenancing the delusive, gipsy predictions of a "right to choose our governors", prove to a demonstration how totally adverse the wisdom of the nation was from turning a case of necessity into a rule of law.
		Unquestionably, there was at the Revolution, in the person of King William, a small and a temporary deviation from the strict order of a regular hereditary succession; but it is against all genuine principles of jurisprudence to draw a principle from a law made in a special case and regarding an individual person.
		The gentlemen of the Revolution Society, who were so early in their congratulations, appear to be strongly of opinion that there is some scheme of politics relative to this country in which your proceedings may, in some way, be useful.

	The Truth About Corrective Shoeing - PetPlace.com
		Correct shoeing provides appropriate balance and eases the way the horse moves.
		That is what the goals are as far as what is correct for the horse,” says Mark Martinelli, former farrier and now a DVM and orthopedic surgeon, University of Illinois.
		Finally, it's important to remember that corrective and therapeutic shoeing, like most physiological or medical procedures, is often an art and not always as scientific as we wish.

	Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis - The Region - 2003 Annual Report Essay - The Industrial Revolution: Past and Future (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The course of the industrial revolution, our term for the transition from stable to accelerating growth, is illustrated in Figure 2, which plots total world population and production from the year 1000 up to the present.
		The industrial revolution has begun to diffuse to the non-European world, and this, of course, is the main reason that postwar growth rates for the world as a whole have attained such unprecedented levels.
		That is, the industrial revolution is invariably associated with the reduction in fertility known as the demographic transition.

	USCFL- The Syrian Army: Between the Domestic and the External Fronts
		In the "Corrective Revolution" of November 1970, which brought Asad to power, military intervention of the Syrian army in the country's affairs had ostensibly reached its peak.
		Nevertheless, a study of the period of Asad's rule (1970-2000) reveals that the "Corrective Revolution" was not only the peak of military involvement, but also largely the end -- at least thus far -- of this involvement.
		The "Corrective Revolution" which brought Asad to power in November 1970, was the first coup in which the army stood united behind its commander.

		Revolution of Roses is not merely a template or accepted terminological concept, but a symbol of renovation of life in the Georgian society, including culture too.
		It was rather a revolution of the post-Socialist type when one segment of political elites gain the power from another elite group (not precisely a type of revolutions for the post-Soviet territories, that is the CIS space, but including the Central Eastern Europe type).
		November revolution was a covert operation (for Paata, and Giro); or probably a result of mass manipulation (for Marina) aimed at bringing Saakshvili to power that had nothing to do with the expression of popular will, therefore that was also unquestionably bad.

	The 40th Anniversary of the Cuban Revolution
		It is hypocritical to state that human freedom and the absolute freedom of the market are inseparable concepts, as if laws of this kind, which have emerged from the most selfish, unequal and merciless systems ever known, were compatible with freedom for human beings, who the system has turned into mere commodities.
		It would be much more exact to say that without equality and fraternity, which were the sacrosanct watchwords of the bourgeois revolution, there can never be liberty, and that equality and fraternity are absolutely incompatible with the laws of the market.
		The nation that is waging the heroic battle of the special period to save the homeland, the Revolution and the conquests of socialism is advancing irrepressibly towards its goals, in the same way that the fighters led by Camilo and Che advanced from the Sierra Maestra to the Escambray.

		He was succeeded by the charismatic Gamal Abdel Nasser, who presided over the nationalisation of the Suez Canal and private industry, as well as the creation of a one-party state and military defeat by Israel in 1967.
		Anwar Sadat however launched a "corrective revolution" after Nasser's death in 1970, which ultimately led to a mixed economy, a strategic partnership with the United States, and a restricted multi-party system.
		"The revolution saved the nation on the brink of anarchy, (due to) destructive divisions resulting from the abandonment of the national struggle," Mubarak said in last year's speech marking the July 23 anniversary.

		Liberal democrats and independent nationalists argue that the revolution's demise came when it turned its back on the democratic ideals it had proclaimed, when it struck down civil liberties, banned political parties, gagged freedom of speech and abridged political power to a one-man dictatorship.
		They finally embraced it after the introduction of the "Socialist Decrees" in 1961, the declaration of the "National Charter" a year later and the fostering of an alliance with the former Soviet Union that was ushered in by the visit of the then Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev to Egypt in 1964.
		It has been said that a revolution, like a mother-cat, can sometimes be so scared by a perceived danger that it will devour its newly-born kittens in an attempt to protect them.

	Sanford Speech: THE RISK MANAGEMENT REVOLUTION
		Companies are under pressure to improve performance for their shareholders, governments are under pressure to increase economic growth and stability, investment managers are under pressure to do a better job of meeting the objectives of their clients, and individuals are under pressure to create their own financial safety nets.
		Now that the risk management revolution has given us the tools to assess and actively manage a much broader array of risks, many CEOs are recognizing that this new role gives them a valuable opportunity to take more control over their companies' destiny.
		Twenty-five years from now we will be approaching the year 2020, and the risk management revolution that we began in the 1990s will seem no more novel than the revolution in the '70s that brought increasing numbers of women into the workplace.

		Having themselves arrived in a blind alley, the highly civilized nations block the road of proletarian revolution, not because her economy was the first to become ripe for a socialist change, but because she could not develop further on a capitalist basis.
		Entering upon the socialist revolution as "the weakest link in the capitalist chain" (Lenin), the former empire of the tzars is even now, in the 19th year after the revolution, still confronted with the task of "catching up with and outstripping”— consequently in the first place catching up with—Europe and America.
		However, a correct appraisal of the results achieved—their grandeur as well as their inadequacy—is possible only with the help of an international scale of measurement.

		A half-century and four presidents -- all military officers -- later, Egyptians still argue as to whether or not the so-called July Revolution was the first step on a glorious road forward, a broken promise, or a dead end.
		Hosni Mubarak, president since 1981, has overseen a continuation of economic reforms and the creation of new political parties, although many sectors of the economy remain state monopolies and opposition political activity is tightly controlled.
		Makram Mohammed Ahmed, editor of the state-owned Al-Musawwar weekly, argues however that Mubarak is beginning to shift the government's basis of rule from revolutionary legitimacy, to a new legitimacy based on the rule of law.

	OUP: French Revolution 1789-1799: McPhee
		He is particularly successful in integrating specific case examples and quotations from the period into his general narrative and historiographic analysis and in thus conveying the drama and passion of the Revolution, so often passed over in texts of this kind.
		It also provides an excellent corrective to many recent "revisionist" texts, reasserting the importance of social dynamics before and during the Revolution and eshewing simplistic explanations of the Terror based solely on ideology or internal politics.
		The author's recent work on the environmental impact of the Revolution is also incorporated to provide a lively, modern, and rounded picture of France during this critical phase in the development of modern Europe.

	Asia Times - News and analysis from throughout Southeast Asia
		This week marks the 18th anniversary of the EDSA Revolution, or EDSA 1, as it has come to be known after the People Power manifestations of EDSA 2 and 3 - the one successfully deposing president Joseph "Erap" Estrada, the other unsuccessfully reaffirming his presidency.
		While EDSA 2, like the EDSA Revolution, was also primarily about moral rectification - both were expressions of outrage against moral degeneracy - the issues at its heart were simply less urgent.
		Estrada may have been a heavy drinker and womanizer, and frequent stories of indecent proposals and all-night drinking sprees at Malacanang may have scandalized the morally fastidious middle class, but, compared with the former dictator, his sins were venial.

	The French Revolution spawns Political Correctness
		Any schoolmaster or schoolmistress who teaches in his or her school precepts or maxims contrary to republican laws and moralitY shall be denounced by the supervisors, and punished according to the gravity of the offence.
		In Robespierre's mind apparently the new religion was theoretical (in that it derived from Rousseau's belief that the state should assume responsibility for the souls of its people) and practical (in that Robespierre himself observed that the time seemed ripe for utilizing such a movement in furthering national unity in support of revolutionary republicanism).
		Their descendants, the Freemasons, were important in the French Revolution; in the unification of Italy; and most importantly in the American Revolution.

		So long as the net result of the two revolutions, democratic and socialistic, bound together by the firm snow of October, reduced itself for the peasantry to a loss of hundreds of millions, a union of the two classes remained dubious.
		Irresoluteness before the individual peasant enterprises, distrust of large plans, defense of a minimum tempo, neglect of international problems—all this taken together formed the essence of the theory of "socialism in one country", first put forward by Stalin in the autumn of 1924 after the defeat of the proletariat in Germany.
		In that very month, when the kulaks were taking the revolution by the throat, the representatives of the Left Opposition were thrown into prison or banished to different parts of Siberia in punishment for their "panic" before the spectre of the kulak.

	Liberation Theology (by Ron Rhodes)
		Leonardo Boff says Jesus' followers fabricated the idea that Jesus' death had a transcendent, salvific significance: "The historically true events are the crucifixion, the condemnation by Pilate, and the inscription on the cross in three languages known by the Jews.
		For, from a scriptural perspective, both the poor and the rich, both the oppressed and oppressors, are afflicted by sin and are in need of salvation.
		This is the Christian counterpart to "dependency theory." The revolution so earnestly sought in society will best be accomplished as greater numbers of people in that society experience the revolution of new birth and the ongoing renewal of life in Christ.

		The rapid reestablishment of equilibriums requires the detection of variances where they occur and corrective action that is carried out in a decentralized manner.
		The correction of the body's equilibrium when we stand is accomplished by the contraction of certain muscles without our having to think about it even when the brain intervenes.

	Edmund Burke: Reflections on the Revolution in France
		, in all their reasonings on the Revolution of 1688, have a revolution which happened in England about forty years before and the late French revolution, so much before their eyes and in their hearts that they are constantly confounding all the three together.
		Perhaps the apprehensions our ancestors entertained of forming such a precedent as that "of cashiering for misconduct" was the cause that the declaration of the act, which implied the abdication of King James, was, if it had any fault, rather too guarded and too circumstantial.
		Ill would our ancestors at the Revolution have deserved their fame for wisdom if they had found no security for their freedom but in rendering their government feeble in its operations, and precarious in its tenure; if they had been able to contrive no better remedy against arbitrary power than civil confusion.

		Three years after the 1967 Six Day War, in which Egypt lost the Sinai to Israel, Nasser died and was succeeded by Anwar Sadat, who presented his takeover in terms of a Corrective Revolution.
		Sadat switched Egypt's Cold War allegiance from the Soviet Union to the United States, expelling Soviet advisors in 1972, and launched the Infitah economic reform, while violently clamping down on religious and secular opposition alike.

		Pedro Rivera visited the mission and presidio at Mission Valley during his inspection in 1727-1728 and was complementary to the operation despite his reputation in the eyes of historians as a critic and cost-cutter who stalemated the expansion of the mission-presidio system.
		The road was a major route for export to the east and supply of livestock to Spanish allied forces against the British during the American Revolution.
		Rivera on his inspection of Texas establishments after 1730, in his report on the Presidio of Nuestra Senora de Loreto de la Bahia del Espiritu Santo, reported that Captain Bustillos y Ceballos, called "governor," had a garrison of 90 men, and that their military bearing was exceptionally good.

		In May 1964, President Amin Hafiz of the NCRC promulgated a provisional constitution providing for a National Council of the Revolution (NCR), an appointed legislature composed of representatives of mass organizations â”labor, peasant, and professional unionsâ”, a presidential council, in which executive power was vested, and a cabinet.
		On February 23, 1966, a group of army officers carried out a successful, intra-party coup, imprisoned President Hafiz, dissolved the cabinet and the NCR, abrogated the provisional constitution, and designated a regionalist, civilian Ba'ath government.
		Assad's regime's survival is due partly to a strong desire for stability and the regime's success in giving groups such as religious minorities and peasant farmers a stake in society.
