  4. Radical Phase • Radicals gain power because they have more discipline, ambition and support from the population at-large • Introduces great changes in political and social organization • Results in widespread protest and reaction

  5. Phase of Terror • Radical control leads to mass protest and violent responses • Radical leaders resort to violence, fear, military rule and any other means necessary to maintain order • The behavior of the radicals does not match the ideals they proclaimed when they took power

  6. Thermidor Phase • A military leader restores order • Radicals are imprisoned or executed • Moderates reclaim government control • Politics focus on economic and social stability instead of political reform • Population trades one form of authoritarian government for another
