metadata.value: This article analyzes the conceptual influence of the political parties of the English revolution of
  the middle of the 17th century that made up an arsenal of groups (independents, levellers, republicans)
  on the ideologists of political parties of the Tories and Whigs during the Stuart Restoration and early
  Enlightenment. The idea of the divine origin of Royal power became сentral in early Tory ideology.
  Many of them defended the absolute, unlimited form of the monarchy. More complex were the origins
  of the ideology of the opposition. Early Whigs borrowed the main ideas first and foremost in the arsenal of so-called “silk” independents. Opposed to absolute monarchy, Whigs denied the divine origin of
  Royal power. Their ideologues advocated a constitutional monarchy. Most Whigs saw the possibility
  of limiting Royal power through the law. They allotted to Parliament the crucial role in constitutional
  monarchy. Early parties were spokesmen for the ideology of the new bourgeois classes of society which
  had begun to take shape after the revolution of the mid 17th century. The Tories rejected any attempts
  to modify the existing form of government, because only monarchy was fully meet their requirements.
  Whigs, expressing the interests of the bourgeoisie and the new nobility, fought against absolutism,
  not intending, however, to abolish the Royal authority. The main ideas from the arsenal of the revolutionaries
  was later adopted by the ideologues of political parties in the age of Enlightenment, though
  enlightenment had condemned the revolution and has been at pains to deny any continuity or connection
  with the levellers, the independents and their followers from the Restoration period. Theories
  of social contract, constitutional monarchy, separations and balances branches of the power, resistance
  to tyranny, protection of private property, personal and civil liberties, were not only included in the
  arsenal of early political parties of the 17–18th centuries but also formed the basis for a model of liberal
  democracy which was to become widespread in the modern world. Thus the influence of the English
  revolution of the middle of the 17th century in the ideological plan was more significant and long-term,
  than the Glorious Revolution of 1688–1689. Refs 21.
