Résumé : The counter-revolutionary thought has exerted a constraint on the 19 th century philosophy of history; It has forced liberal and democratic ideals to face up to their blind spots while stressing the need to understand society as a self-powered set of structures. Its sociological approach, however; was condemned to face up to the need for a dialectical interpretation of the meaning of the French Revolution in global history. The grievance against the tear of the web of time could not but overturn itself in a progressivist hope for a new enlightened monarchy, or in a messianic expectation of a new regime of time.
