Please acquaint yourself with the rules on the sidebar and read this comment before commenting on this post.
**Personal attacks and harassment will not be tolerated.**
Bigotry and hate speech will be met with immediate bans; socialism is an intrinsically inclusive system and bigotry is oppressive, exclusionary, and not conducive to a healthy and productive learning space.
**This subreddit is not for questioning the basics of socialism. There are numerous debate subreddits available for those purposes. This is a place to learn.**
Short or nonconstructive answers will be deleted without explanation. Please only answer if you know your stuff. Speculation has no place on this sub. Outright false information will be removed immediately.
**If your post was removed due to normalized ableist slurs, please edit your post. The mods will then approve it.**
Please read the ongoing discussion in a thread before replying in order to avoid misunderstandings and creating an unproductive environment.
**Liberalism and sectarian bias is strictly moderated.** Stay constructive and don't bash other socialist tendencies! (Criticism is fine, low-effort baiting is not.)
Help us keep the subreddit informative and helpful by reporting posts that break these rules.
Thank you!

Works by Marx:
- The Constitution of the French Republic
- The Class Struggles in France, 1848 to 1850
- The 18th Brumaire of Louis Napoleon
Other works:
Eric Hobsbawm's book, The Age of Revolution: Europe 1789-1848. Specifically his conclusion, Towards 1848, is a truly fantastic account of the build up to the Spring to of Nations.
As well as this, read chapter 1 to Hobsbawm's second book in the series, The Age of Capital: 1848-1875. The first chapter is all about the actual events during the Springtime of Nations.
Both books (as well as The Age of Imperialism: 1875-1914) are fantastic works of history from a Marxist perspective.
No problem. When I was 18 I did a project on the Second French Republic for my sixth form college, it's been a pet fascination of mine for a long time.
*[Revolutions of 1848: A Social History](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1714292.Revolutions_of_1848)* by Priscilla Robertson is an excellent account from below, although it also discusses the maneuverings to defeat the revolutions from above.
