Description:For the first time in the English language, historian Jacques R. Pauwels traces four great upheavals—1789‑99, 1830, 1848, and the Paris Commune of 1871—revealing how artisans, workers, and sans‑culottes alike first shattered royal power and later clashed with a rising bourgeois order intent on remaking the city in its own image. Each chapter pairs concise narrative with a guided itinerary, allowing readers to walk from Versailles to the Bastille, the Hôtel de Ville, and the invisible Paris of vanished alleys and barricades while grasping the class forces that animated those spaces.Pauwels argues that Paris did more than host revolution: its geography, policing, and architecture actively produced and contained revolt, culminating in Baron Haussmann's boulevards—celebrated as modern progress yet engineered to prevent future insurrections. Along the way, he revisits classic questions—why 1789 turned radical, how 1848 gave way to empire, why the Commune still matters—anchoring sharp analysis in the lived experience of ordinary Parisians and the global currents of anti‑imperialist struggle.Ideal for scholars, students, radical tourists, and general readers alike, Pauwels' How Paris Made the Revolution re‑centers the city's history on the working classes who built—and repeatedly tried to reclaim—"the bourgeois Babylon." Pauwels, quite brilliantly, reminds us that the stones of Paris still echo with the promise that another city, and another world, remain possibleWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
