Focusing on the collective identities framing conflict during these two upheavals and in the intervening period, Gould reveals that while class played a pivotal role in 1848, it was neighborhood solidarity that was the decisive organizing force in 1871. <br><br>The difference was due to Baron Haussmann's massive urban renovation projects between 1852 and 1868, which dispersed workers from Paris's center to newly annexed districts on the outskirts of the city. In these areas, residence rather than occupation structured social relations. Drawing on evidence from trail documents, marriage records, reports of police spies, and the popular press, Gould demonstrates that this fundamental rearrangement in the patterns of social life made possible a neighborhood insurgent movement; whereas the insurgents of 1848 fought and died in defense of their status as workers, those in 1871 did so as members of a besieged urban community. <br><br>A valuable resource for historians and scholars of social movements, this work shows that collective identities vary with political circumstances but are nevertheless constrained by social networks. Gould extends this argument to make sense of other protest movements and to offer predictions about the dimensions of future social conflict. <br><br></div> 484962 1 12 1995 Insurgent Identities: Class, Community, and Protest in Paris from 1848 to the Commune total:5|5:1|4:3|2:1| 5 19 8 1 2 0 false false Mon Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Thu Oct 25 20:03:09 -0700 2007 Thu Oct 25 20:04:39 -0700 2007 0 0 false false Tue Jul 28 18:10:02 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 28 18:10:02 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Apr 02 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 01 23:59:13 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 01 23:59:22 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Feb 19 15:35:31 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 19 15:35:31 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Wed Oct 15 14:46:09 -0700 2008 Wed Oct 15 14:46:11 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Mar 14 06:02:45 -0700 2008 Fri Mar 14 06:02:54 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Mon Aug 27 20:42:16 -0700 2007 Mon Aug 27 20:42:18 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Thu Mar 29 22:34:07 -0700 2007 Thu Mar 29 22:34:25 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=496810
