The Commonwealth of Oceana is the first and only volume written by Harrington. It was published in 1660. Harrington had a great influence on political thought in this era. His theories about the civil revolution in England are discussed in this volume. The revolt was the result of social change, which led to the failure of the political environment of the time.
