{"product_id":"politics-of-rural-life-the","title":"Politics of Rural Life, The","description":"\u003cp\u003ePeter McPhee has written the first full scholarly study of rural politics in France during the Second Republic (1848-1852). The Revolution of 1848 and the subsequent regime changed the face of mass politics in France; unprecedented numbers of French men and women participated in legal and illegal forms of political activity during a period of protracted crisis ultimately resolved by a military coup d'état.  In exploring the\n\u003cbr\u003eneglected history of rural France in this period, the book draws on hundreds of regional studies to examine the large-scale political mobilizations of right and left in the countryside, and offers a new synthesis and\n\u003cbr\u003einterpretation of these years. Dr McPhee shows that rural politics were both more complex and more threatening to urban élites than has been generally recognized, and provides a lucid and scholarly analysis of a turbulent period in modern French history and its long-term social and political consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44156990783726,"sku":"9780198202257","price":293.33,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780198202257.jpg?v=1706244108","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/politics-of-rural-life-the","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
