Focusing on a pivotal period from May 1793 to August 1795, the narrative delves into the Federalist Revolt, the Reign of Terror, and the Thermidorian Reaction, highlighting the significant role of departmental clubs in these events. Through extensive archival research, the author explores how these clubs influenced local politics, administration, and society, reaching their peak during the Terror with over 5,300 active communes. The study culminates in the decline and eventual dissolution of these clubs by the Paris Convention, marking a critical transformation in revolutionary France.
