The rise of the Jacobins can be linked with which social process?

Urban lower and middle classes becoming active in politics

The Jacobins were not simply a group of royal officials or church leaders. They were connected with clubs and political activity that drew support from urban people, including sections of the lower and middle classes. Their influence grew as the Revolution became more radical and ordinary citizens, especially politically active people in the towns, took a larger part in debates, demonstrations, and revolutionary government.

This shows that the rise of the Jacobins can be linked with the expansion of popular politics and the active participation of urban lower and middle classes. Therefore option C is correct. Increasing court luxury was a feature of the old regime, but it does not explain the Jacobins' social support. Peasant sea trade and the church becoming king are unrelated to their rise.
