International revolutionary models and support make revolutionary situations more frequent
Evidence
Finally, as European-wide openings of 1945, 1968, and 1989 indicate, revolutionary situations became more frequent when international models and signs of external support for revolutionaries became more visible. At those points, revolutionary coalitions not only emulated each other, but often communicated and collaborated (Horn and Kenney 2004; Suri 2003). Those momentous events, however, turn our attention to the second half of our problem: revolutionary outcomes. — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 1065
