The Commune has been for socialist theoricians, such as Karl Marx, who wrote about it, kind of laboratory in a field which was unto 1870 unexplored - As 1848 had been a bourgeois revolution and half-defeat
The Commune is a civil war ( working class emerging against victorious bourgeoisie of 1789 )combined in another war France against Preussia -
The highest point of the revolution was combined with the siege of Paris which followed the defeat of Sedan - at a time when Germans had ambitions on Alsace and Lorraine -
A theory says that Napoleon III bargained those two french provinces against the siege of Paris by Preussians, knowing that this would lead to repression, massacre of workmen and deportation to New-Caledonia, Guyana, Algeria etc - Napoleon III did not care that much about Alsace and Lorraine, and the trend at that time was french colonial expansion .
The changes which were brought were a new government, once war ended, and the triumph of bourgeoisie with an extremely repressive government lead by Thiers and Mac Mahon - + a comeback of the church and a new trend to royalism - which explains the extreme harshness of struggle between non-religious republicans, and extreme right mud -
The end of the century in France is typicized with the Dreyfus anti-semitic social war, and the struggle for free non-religious schools - of which result was the prohibition of church in many aspects of social life aroun 1890/1905 |
