Signature: Julia Catherine Nicholls Date: 23 September 2015 Abstract This thesis provides the first comprehensive account of French revolutionary thought in the years that followed the defeat of the 1871 Paris Commune, France’s last nineteenth- century revolution. The Commune as an event has captivated imaginations for the past 150 years, but the same cannot be said of its participants. With the majority either dead, deported, or in exile, this period has traditionally been seen as one of intellectual stagnation and disarray. After the fleeting unity of the Commune, revolutionaries are thought to have admitted defeat, divided into groups, and drifted towards a series of prefabricated, orthodox intellectual positions. I argue that this is not a satisfactory representation of post-Commune revolutionary thought. Revolutionary thought cannot be characterised using later neat assignations of ‘left’ and ‘right’; ‘Marxist’, ‘nationalist’, or ‘anarchist’. Drawing upon the work of thinkers and activists from across the revolutionary spectrum, I demonstrate that this was a period of intellectual fluidity and engagement, as activists experimented with a variety of ways to reconstruct a unified, credible, and autonomous French revolutionary movement. Even as they were increasingly physically and politically divided, they remained united by this commitment until well into the 1880s. I trace this thought through a series of themes including revolutionary interactions with Marxism and new imperialism. This thesis thus also provides new perspectives on the construction of these wider doctrines, and on the political and social history of late nineteenth-century Europe more generally. Finally, by offering a fresh look at what has often been considered one of its most fundamental periods, I also seek to interrogate and revise our understanding of the revolutionary tradition itself – a concept that played a pivotal role in both political thought and practice for substantial periods of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

The staff at the British Library newspaper archives in Colindale, the Bibliothèque nationale de France, the Archives de la Préfecture de Police in Paris, the Bibliothèque universitaire de Genève, and especially those at the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam provided me with invaluable assistance during my numerous visits, and for this I am also extremely thankful. It has been a privilege to be supervised by Gareth Stedman Jones. His help, support, and advice have been unparalleled, simultaneously guiding me in productive directions and forcing me to think for myself. I cannot now imagine a better supervisor. I further thank Gareth for providing me with parts of his forthcoming book on Karl Marx, and Jeremy Jennings for kindly lending me his copy of a very recent and very relevant French thesis. Several other people in the School of History have also made my years at Queen Mary enjoyable ones. I am incredibly grateful for the advice, encouragement, and opportunities that Miri Rubin and Georgios Varouxakis have given me. Richard Bourke has done all of these things, and provided insightful comments on numerous pieces of my work as well. I am fortunate to have been supervised by many wonderful historians over the past few years, and even more fortunate to have remained in touch with some of them. Of these, I am particularly thankful to Robert Tombs and the late Christopher Bayly. Both have encouraged me no end and kindly took time to read and comment on parts of this thesis. Callum Barrell has copied everything I have done for the last eight years, and I am so happy that he did. As with many other things, I have enjoyed this experience so much more for sharing it with him. Arthur Asseraf has read every piece of important work I have ever submitted, fished me out of pools of despair, shared my interests, and been a peerless cheerleader. He is an unquestionable chinchilla, and I cannot begin to describe how grateful I am. Finally, thank you to my parents, both living and dead, whose example daily inspires me to try to be the best that I can be. 7 Introduction Following the defeat of the Paris Commune in late May 1871, its participants and supporters were frequently moved to declare that while ‘le cadavre est à terre…l’idée est debout’: ‘the body may have fallen, but the idea still stands’ [IMG 1].1 Historians, political commentators, and world leaders alike have advanced their own interpretations of the events of spring 1871 since the last shots were fired. What precisely ex- Communards believed this idea to be, however, has never been clear. This thesis addresses itself to this question. Through an exploration of the nature and content of French revolutionary thought from the years immediately following the Commune’s fall, it demonstrates that this idea was not a specific policy or doctrine. Rather, by extensively redefining familiar concepts and using their circumstances creatively, it was the idea of a distinct, united, and politically viable French revolutionary movement that activists sought to preserve. The relative success of these efforts, furthermore, has significant implications for the ways in which scholars understand both the founding years of the French Third Republic and the nature of the modern revolutionary tradition. In the small hours of 18 March 1871, troops from the French Army marched into Paris. Their objective was the removal of a number of cannons that had formed part of the capital’s defence during the four-month long Siege of Paris that brought to an end the Franco Prussian War. News of the soldiers’ early morning arrival spread quickly through the working-class districts of Belleville, Buttes-Chaumont, and Montmartre where the artillery was being stored. Still aggrieved by the city’s treatment at the hands of the Prussians and the French government during the war and subsequent peace negotiations, angry residents and fédérés from the National Guard poured out into the streets. Pleas for calm fell on deaf ears, and before long the military operation had precipitated an armed revolt. By the end of the day, two generals lay dead, rebels had 1 See for example the cover of P.-O. Lissagaray, Les huit journées de mai derrière les barricades (Brussels: Au bureau du Petit journal, 1871); Pilotell, ‘La Commune de Paris: le cadavre est à terre et l’idée est debout (Victor Hugo)’ (1871. Musée Carnavalet, Paris); La Bataille (Paris), 19 March 1885. This is also the motto of the Association des Amies et Amis de la Commune de Paris 1871. The phrase was originally Victor Hugo’s. See V. Hugo, La voix de Guernesey (Guernsey: Imprimerie T.- M. Bichard, 1867), p.14. 8 assumed control of key strategic buildings in the city, and what remained of the army had beaten a hasty retreat to Versailles with the government hot on its heels. For the next two months, Paris ruled itself as a revolutionary commune. It swiftly held municipal elections, passed legislation, and waged war against the national government. This situation came to an end on 21 May 1871 when the French Army re- entered Paris, commencing a week of street battles that quickly came to be known as the Semaine Sanglante.2 As the army overcame the Communards one street and one barricade at a time, the capital went up in flames around them; the City of Light now a city on fire. Fleeing revolutionaries killed a number of hostages including the Archbishop of Paris, while the advancing troops were liable to shoot anyone they suspected of participation in the Commune.3 By the time the final Communards were defeated on 28 May amidst the graves of Père-Lachaise cemetery, thousands had been killed – the vast majority revolutionaries4 – in what Robert Tombs has termed ‘the worst violence committed against civilians in Europe between the French and Russian Revolutions’.5 In the weeks, months, and years that followed, the war against the Commune did not dissipate, but merely changed form.

Long Live the Revolutions: Fighting for France's Political Future in the Long Wake of the Commune, 1871-1880 Abstract The traumatic legacies of the Paris Commune and its harsh suppression in 1871 had a significant impact on the identities and voter outreach efforts of each of the chief political blocs of the 1870s. The political and cultural developments of this phenomenal decade, which is frequently mislabeled as calm and stable, established the Republic's longevity and set its character. Yet the Commune's legacies have never been comprehensively examined in a way that synthesizes their political and cultural effects. This dissertation offers a compelling perspective of the 1870s through qualitative and quantitative analyses of the influence of these legacies, using sources as diverse as parliamentary debates, visual media, and scribbled sedition on city walls, to explicate the decade's most important political and cultural moments, their origins, and their impact.

University of California Press, Berkeley [etc.] 1998. xxix, 416 pp. $55.00; £42.00. (Paper: $19.95;£14.95.) In this book, Andre Gunder Frank first of all emphasizes the important economic role of Asia in general, and of India and China in particular, during the period of European expansion as part of a global trade network. However, his major aim is ‘‘to analyze the structure and dynamic of the whole world economic system itself and not only the European (part of the) world economic system’’. Frank starts by tracing his own intellec- tual development as part of his ever-continuing discussions with other major system thinkers such as Immanuel Wallerstein, with anthropologists like Eric Wolf, and with world historians, first and foremost William H. McNeill. Frank then presents his main thesis: since 1500 a single global economy with a worldwide division of labor and multilateral trade has existed. Asia in general and East Asia in particular were the domi- nant centers of economic power. West Europeans, and later North Americans, only took over after 1800. The period of Western dominance is now coming to an end, and the former pattern of Asian dominance is re-establishing itself. The main characteristics of the modern world economic system are discussed by referring to the work of major scholars: Alfred Crosby’s discussion of the effects of the Columbian exchange of plants and animals worldwide; William McNeill’s analysis of the global but unequal spread of infectious diseases; the importance of trade diasporas almost everywhere (as emphasized by Philip Curtin, strangely not explicitly mentioned by Frank); Sing Chew’s views on generalized ecological change – mostly deterioration – during this period.

Transcribed & marked up by Einde O’Callaghan for the Marxists’ Internet Archive . “The economic structure of society is the real basis on which the juridical aud political superstructure is raised, and to which definite social forms of thought correspond : in short the mode of production determines the character of the social, political, and intellectual life generally.” Karl Marx, Capital * * * * “A critical knowledge of the evolution of the idea of property would embody, in some respects, the most remarkable portion of the mental history of mankind.” Lewis H.

Bourgeois Property The Evolution of Property… Paul Lafargue Halaman 3 Publishers’ Preface THE work of Paul Lafargue on the Evolution of Property was originally published as a series of articles, under the nom de plume of “Fergus,” in the Nouvelle Revue of Paris, edited by Madame Adam. The originality of the theory advanced, and the mass of facts quoted, were noted not only in France but in England. The Daily News and the Daily Telegraph , notably, called attention to the chapter on Primitive Communism – a chapter written in answer to Professor Huxley’s attack on Rousseau and Human Equality.

New York 1965 Copyright © 1965 by Science and Society, Inc. 30 East 20th Street, New York, N.Y. 10003 All Rights Reserved Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 40-10163 �341 PREFACE The editors of Science & Society believe that this index to its contents during the first twenty-five years of publication deserves the uncustomary tribute of an editorial note, since it serves to remind us that Science & Society is theoldest publication extant devoted to the theory of Marxism. Indeed, with the single exception of that monument to German scholar­ ship, Die Neue Zeit (1883-1923), it is the longest-lived Marxist theoretical journal in the world, and this despite the enormous difficulties under which Science & Society has always been published. The editors, therefore, take this opportunity to reaffirm their inten­ tion of making Science & Society a forum for the best Marxist scholarship, and their hope that the preface to some future edition of its index will no longer need to note the exception of Die N eue Zeit. We think that those who, using this index, rediscover the great variety of subjects treated and the quality of critical scholarship represented, will agree with us that it is a bibliographic tool of real value to all scholars, but truly invaluable to Marxists. Finally, the editors of Science & Society wish to express their deep gratitude to the Louis M. Rabinowitz Foundation whose generous grant made the publication of this index possible.

The eH ritage of Modern Socialist Ideas Abstract Of the total heritage which gave birth to modern socialism, brief attention may be given to certain of the predecessors of Karl Marx. Although some now are saved from obscurity only by the diligence of interested historians, others generated powerful ideas still not extinguished today. Together they created an amorphous body of thought from which Marx freelv drew. Consequently, an understanding of the varieties of later socialism, and specifically of Marx, requires a brief survey of these men.
