But in nineteenth century Europe, without the technological advances of modern armies and police forces, an army?s only advantages were discipline and organization?and in the face of popular opposition to the regime in power, both could rapidly deteriorate. Such was the case in France after the Napoleonic Wars, where a cumulative recent history of failure weakened an already fragile army?s ability to keep the peace. After the February 1848 overthrow of the last king of France, the new republican government proved remarkably resilient, retaining power while pursuing moderate social policies despite the concerted efforts of a variety of radical and socialist groups. These efforts took numerous forms, ranging from demonstrations to attempted coups to full-scale urban combat, and culminated in the crisis of the June Days. At stake was the future of French government and the social and economic policy of France at large. In Controlling Paris, Jonathan M. House offers us a study of revolution from the viewpoint of the government rather than the revolutionary. It is not focused on military tactics so much as on the broader issues involved in controlling civil disorders: relations between the government and its military leaders, causes and social issues of public disorder, political loyalty of troops in crisis, and excessive use of force to control civil disorders. Yet somehow, despite all these disadvantages, the French police and armed forces prevented regime change far more often than they failed to do so. 410 0$aWarfare and Culture Series 606 $aCounterrevolutionaries$zFrance$zParis$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aRiots$zFrance$zParis$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aSocial control$zFrance$zParis$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aCivil-military relations$zFrance$zParis$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPolice$zFrance$zParis$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aFrance$xPolitics and government$y1789-1900 607 $aParis (France)$xSocial conditions$y19th century 607 $aParis (France)$xHistory, Military$y19th century 615 0$aCounterrevolutionaries$xHistory 615 0$aRiots$xHistory 615 0$aSocial control$xHistory 615 0$aCivil-military relations$xHistory 615 0$aPolice$xHistory 676 $a944.06 686 $aHIS000000$aHIS027000$2bisacsh 700 $aHouse$b Jonathan M.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01507164 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789116003321 996 $aControlling Paris$93737668 997 $aUNINA
