This article addresses the debate on structure, agency, and process in contemporary revolution theory, drawing on social movement theory and using the Haitian Revolution as an illustrative case. The article seeks to make three main contributions. Firstly, while accepting the critique against the failure of structuralist revolution theory to explain why revolutions can occur under difficult circumstances, the article proposes a structuralist solution instead of the focus on intentions and processes in contemporary revolution theory. Secondly, it brings a new angle to the emerging dialogue between the different fields that theorize social movements and revolutions, by combining Alberto Melucci's early and later approaches to social movements and temporality. Thirdly, the Meluccian approach is utilized in a case study that explores how independence from France can be understood in the Haitian Revolution, which serves to illustrate the strengths of the theoretical approach and to criticize the major accounts of independence in existing studies of the Haitian Revolution.

结构，时间性和革命理论。在1791–1804年在革命性的圣多明各读阿尔贝托·梅卢奇（Alberto Melucci）

本文以社会运动理论为基础，以海地革命为例，论述了当代革命理论中有关结构，代理和过程的辩论。本文力求做出三点主要贡献。首先，在接受对结构主义革命理论失败的批评来解释为什么革命会在困难的情况下发生的同时，本文提出了一种结构主义解决方案，而不是关注当代革命理论中的意图和过程。其次，通过结合阿尔贝托·梅卢奇（Alberto Melucci）早期和后来的社会运动和时间性方法，为理论化社会运动和革命的不同领域之间出现的对话带来了新的角度。第三，
