Based on original archival research, The Second French Republic gives a detailed account of the internal tensions that irrevocably weakened France's shortest republic. During this short period French political life was buffeted by strong and often contrary forces: universal manhood suffrage, fear of socialism, the President Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte, and the political ambitions of the military high command for the restoration of the monarchy.              UR - https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-59740-3 ER -
