The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte
Karl Marx
The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon was an essay written by Karl Marx between December 1851 and March 1852. The essay discusses the French coup of 1851 in which Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte assumed dictatorial powers. It shows Marx in his form as a social and political historian, treating actual historical events from the viewpoint of his materialist conception of history. Along with Marx's contemporary writings on English politics, the Eighteenth Brumaire is a principal source for understanding Marx's theory of the capitalist state. It also shows more criticism of the proletariat than might be associated with his other work, referring to the bureaucracy as a "giant parasitic body" and describing widespread perceptions of the proletariat as a "party of anarchy, socialism, and communism," a party paradoxically established on precepts of an oppositional "party of order."
