What Paine meant when he referred to the  "summer soldier" and the "sunshine patriot" was "People who are willing to sacrifice their comforts for a cause."

After publishing "Common Sense" at the end of 1776, Thomas Pain wanted to write a series of articles known as "The American Crisis," from 1776 to 1783. Paine supported the independence of the colonies from the English crown and the self-government of the United States. In one of his articles, he wrote: "These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now deserves the love and thanks of man and woman." What Paine meant when he referred to the  "summer soldier" and the "sunshine patriot" was "People who are willing to sacrifice their comforts for a cause."

the process is called revolution because it was a process of great economic-social transformations that began in england in the xviii century.

the industrial mode of production spread throughout much of the northern hemisphere throughout the xix and early xx centuries.

the effect of this revolution was the distance between the countries, with respect to economic and political power.   after all, not all industrialized at the same time, remaining in the condition of suppliers of raw materials and agricultural products to the industrialized countries.

these differences mark to this day the nations of the world that are divided between developed and developing countries. one way to measure whether a country is advanced is to assess how industrialized it is.
