The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte - Karl Marx - Bog

""The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte"" is a political treatise written by the famous philosopher and economist Karl Marx. The book analyzes the events leading up to the coup d'�����tat of Louis Bonaparte, nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte, and his subsequent rise to power as the president of France in 1848. Marx examines the social, economic, and political factors that contributed to Bonaparte's ascent to power, including the class struggles between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, the role of the military, and the influence of the media. Through his analysis, Marx argues that Bonaparte's rise to power was not a result of his personal abilities or charisma, but rather a product of the historical conditions of his time. The book is considered a seminal work in Marxist thought and provides valuable insights into the nature of political power and the dynamics of class struggle.In the first French revolution, upon the reign of the Constitutionalists succeeds that of the Girondins; and upon the reign of the Girondins follows that of the Jacobins. Each of these parties in succession rests upon its more advanced element. So soon as it has carried the revolution far enough not to be able to keep pace with, much less march ahead of it, it is shoved aside by its more daring allies, who stand behind it, and it is sent to the guillotine. Thus the revolution moves along an upward line.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
