This book, a collection of archives related to the first two years of the Paris Commune, provides a rare insight into the machinations of a newly-formed democratic government, its victories and frustrations. The documents in this second volume span between October 9th, 1790, shortly after the establishment of the democratic Commune, and August 10th, 1792, when the legislative assembly gave way to the National Convention. Through the transcripts of council meetings, mayoral decrees, and administrative protocols, readers are given front-row seats to the challenges and triumphs of an early form of self-governance. The reader will follow along as the 48 sections of Paris struggle to balance representative government with the demands of direct democratic rule. The debates reflect the conflicting ideologies of the period, navigating a middle path between the ancien rà gime and the radical left's vision of a pure democracy. This book offers an intimate look at the successes, failures, and internal politics of the Paris Commune as it laid the groundwork for the modern concept of participatory government.
