Description for Insurgent Identities
Paperback. This work examines the the social upheavals of the Paris Commune of 1871 and the 1848 Revolution. It argues that whereas the insurgents of 1848 fought and died in defence of their status as workers, those of 1871 did so as members of a besieged urban community. Num Pages: 262 pages, 10 halftones, 2 maps, 12 line drawings, 16 tables. BIC Classification: 3JH; HBJD; HBLL; HBTB; JPWF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 154 x 229 x 16. Weight in Grams: 408.
