             Human relationships have always been dynamic. Change and adaptability have
             gone hand in hand with the passage of time for human society. Systems have been
             developed to regulate, direct and control the resources of this society. The systems are
             referred to as governments and the resources as the populace or inhabitants and forces of
             production. A government must be dynamic in its nature reflecting the change in society.
             At times these systems have resisted the necessity to adapt with its components (Society)
             creating a deficit between the system and those it regulates. As the deficits develop, they
             cause instability, and could lead to revolution.1 Theories have been developed to explain
             the systemic phenomenon called revolution. This paper will discuss three modern theories
             and apply them to the English revolution of 1640. The first theory, developed by Carl
             Marx (Marxism), will address the economic evolution in English society. This theory will
             emphasize and explain how the shift from a feudal/mercantile system to capitalism
             affected English society. The second, called the Resource Mobilization Theory (RMT)
             developed by Charles Tilly, will explain how the English organizations (the Crown and
             the Parliament) effectively obtained, amassed and managed resources. Samuel
             Huntington's, "Institutional Theory", will argue that the existing government at that time
             was unable to incorporate the demands and personnel that the socio-economic changes
             created. Marxism was formulated in the 19th century. Carl Marx and his associate
             Frederick Engels observed the socio-economic changes that were transpiring in Britain.
