The monograph presents the result of a study of Bonapartism as a type of politics and the features of its reproduction at the final stages of revolutions. The formation of this phenomenological alternative to overcoming the crisis situations associated with them took place in France at the end of the 18th - beginning of the 19th centuries. The then established model of politics is not considered ideal, but, according to the author, it also embodied strengths that can be taken into account as experience. Constructiveness consisted in a formalized course towards firm rule with a combination of an acceptable compromise in cases where this contributed to stabilization and restoration of government.
