Struggles for Democracy in Nineteenth-Century France
Publication Date: 01/10/1995
France in the mid-19th century was shaken by a surge of civic activism, the resurrection of civil society. But unlike similar developments throughout Europe, this civic mobilization culminated in the establishment of democratic institutions. How, Philip Nord asks, did France effect a successful transition from Louis-Napoleon's authoritarian Second Empire to a functioning republic based on universal suffrage and governed by middle-class parliamentarians? How did French civic activism take this democratic turn?
