In 1848, Europe experienced a wave of revolutions. Last week we covered some of the reform movements that presaged these uprisings. This week, we're learning about what the people wanted from the revolutions, who was involved, and how many of those goals were accomplished. We'll look at revolutions in the Austrian Empire, Hungary, Italy, the German States, and the region formerly known as Poland.

Fun fact: at least in some parts of Italy, '48 still means "chaos", "a mess" (example: "ma che 48!", literally "what a 48!", that stands for "what a mess!") Another fun fact: I was taught that Verdi (the composer) was a symbol for Italian unification not only for his chorus about freedom in one of his masterpieces, but also because his surname is an acronym for "Vittorio Emanuele Re D'Italia" (Vittorio Emanuele King Of Italy). An interesting way to avoid censorship...

The first edition was called "The manifesto of the communist party", to serve as a guideline for the previous league. Later on became the Communist manifesto, acknowledging Marx and Engels as the authors. As pointed out by Marx, the manifesto didn't really impacted the revolutions of the 1840s, but was itself a fruit of its time.

@peterjerman7549 4 года назад

I think, there's an important point John failed to discuss. The 1848 revolutions in Central Europe, especially in the Austrian Empire were filled with beginnings of nationalism. More importantly, the divide between the revolutionaries was much more ethnic than nationalist (except for the German speakers). German nationalism caused a reaction of Slavic and Hungarian nationalism, which is why Slavs refused to vote representatives for the Frankfurt parliament. In the end, the fear of the supremacy of German or Hungarian nationalism caused the Revolution to "fail". However, it is also important to note that 1848 brought large changes, as John has said, for the farmers, but also for all nations, as they got more political rights. Moreover, farmers weren't as uninterested as portrayed, they were more and more willing to participate in democracies, as they had achieved new rights, but now wanted to protect them from a backlash of the reactionaries. Otherwise, great video John!

1848 represents for the Swiss people the creation of the modern federal state that we know today as Switzerland (before it was just a loose federation of independant states). It was created after a brief civil war (the last war that happened on Swiss territory, if we do not count the few bombings of cities by the Allies during WW2) that pitted the mainly catholic, countryside, poor and uneducated cantons, that were fighting for the status quo, against the mainly protestant, liberal and rich cantons fighting for reform and democracy.

Due to that bloody debacle in 1846 and the failure of the 1830-31 November Uprising mentioned in the previous episode, in 1848 there was "only" a Polish uprising in the Prussian Partition. Additionally there were random Polish volunteers, inspired by the motto "For our freedom and yours" showing up all over Europe wherever something like an uprising was going on. Especially numerous in Hungary. For significant individual examples look up Ludwik Mierosławski and Józef Bem.

@vigilantsycamore8750 4 года назад

14:22 this part is heartbreaking Especially because this happened in Poland too. Jewish Poles had been a part of our country for centuries by then, and Jewish people have arguably been allies better allies to us than the Catholic Church ever was. Even after the 18th Century, and the rising antisemitism in Poland at the time, Jewish people still helped us fight for our independence, from the Kościuszko uprising to World War I, while the Catholic Church took much longer to support Polish independence. Allowing antisemitism to take root in our country was nothing short of a betrayal.

@Madhattersinjeans 4 года назад

It's basically how information spreads. Before this period people weren't aware that things could exist in any other form and lived as serfs or slaves to a feudal hierarchy. Once the printing press spread news about events happening in other countries and literacy rates increased people saw an increase in class consciousness. Like, before they would only get local gossip about small town events. Then as people moved to the cities, social circles increased and the news could educate people about what was going on elsewhere in the world. So what's happening today is people in far flung countries are seeing better rates of literacy and are slowly beginning to realise that there are other perhaps better ways of living and that they don't need to fear the state. In some cases at least, i'm sure a few countries have more nuanced reasons behind their unrest like say Hong Kong, which is comparable to New York in terms of literacy, in their case it's a foreign oppressor trying to control the populace. And China with it's apparent lack of social unrest is likely due to their dictatorship controlling the news, to the point where it's society are simply unaware of how things could be different. Much like the Hitler youth, a lot of Chinese genuinely believe their country is the best because they haven't heard or been taught about the terrible things. It's quite scary really.

Part of the problem was the potato blight was dealt with quite well in northern England and Scotland. People wondered why it wasn’t in Ireland. The consequences were even greater than the terrible mass starvation. Changes in policy towards agriculture, opening up markets to foreign countries etc., brought Britain to within weeks of losing the First World War.

You better read Something correct about the German 1848 Revolution, since this video doesn't get it right, especially when it comes to the Frankfurt Parliament.

I wasn't aware of the revolutions in 1848, at least not that many. The potato famine and Communist Manifesto, yes but I didn't realize there was so much upheaval in Europe that year. I was taught about the Mexican-American war and it's end in that year but high school and college history failed to lead me to the events in Europe. I like how John noted the similarities between then and now such as the rise of automation and global discontent. It seems that everyone but the U.S. and New Zealand are protesting or rioting these days.

Fascinating stuff, let's hope we can resolve current issues before another revolution breaks out

@Argacyan 4 года назад

You'd have to fundamentally change the system to resolve most of the issues for good, and by then the question arises what's the difference between that and a revolution anymore.

@nasdan5000 4 года назад

@danculea7865 4 года назад

I think you have two different schools of thinking clashing together when it comes to giving voting rights to the poor and (mostly) uneducated: 1. We shouldn't let them vote because they are very likely to mismanage this right and 'obligation' and will likely see weak or malevolent leaders elected into power that can satisfy their immediate concerns with disregard to the future, human rights, democracy or the wider society. There are plenty of examples of such leaders in history. 2. We should give them the right to vote because it is the best if not the only tool to ensure that their rights are respected and that their socio-economic condition might improve such that they will no longer be poor (at least in absolute terms) or (mostly) uneducated. With the right to vote their political power is equal to everyone else's and as such their welfare and well-being matters just as much. Both views have their merits and my personal opinion is that a middle-road approach would work best, where you try to achieve a minimum level of education and welfare in the wider population before you give them the right to vote to minimize risks and ensure a peaceful transition.

one result of the failures of the revolutions of 1848 was the vast wave of Germans and Czech immigrants to the us. They were no fans of slavery. They transformed the population of Missouri such that the state that the Missouri compromise is named after, stayed in the Union. Texas rangers Fired on German immigrants who opposed secession.

The parliament of Frankfurt was not dominanted by princes, the reprentatives were elected and mostly bourgeois, mostly lawyers and professors. They did name the uncle of the austrian emperor as a provisional central governor, but he was neither a ruling prince nor did he control the parliament

@GiladPellaeon 4 года назад

Well the Archduke was supposed to act as a stand in for the Emperor, and worked alongside President Heinrich von Gagern. But since Frederick William IV never accepted the crown, he basically had nothing to do.
