June Rebellion
In the June 1832 uprising is a rebellion of French Republicans against the reign of King Louis Philippe I of France. The fighting between insurgents and government forces lasted from 5 to 6 June 1832. They took place in Paris, ended with the suppression of the uprising and had no immediate political changes result.
Cause
Since the July Revolution of 1830 and the overthrow of King Charles X ruled in France King Louis Philippe I on the basis of the Charter of 1830 within the framework of a constitutional monarchy. Despite their parliamentary and democratic elements of this Constitution of the royal power and the wealthy strata in the country was a strong political overweight before the rest of the population due to the enshrined therein census suffrage. According to Republican circles in the French bourgeoisie were soon dissatisfied after the government takeover of Louis Philippe with the new constitutional reality and demanded reforms.
On May 22, 1832 were 39 MPs together the Chamber of Deputies and published an annual report to their constituents, in which they denounced the defects of the Constitution and the royal government. The lead here was the banker and former finance minister Jacques Laffitte, who had originally one of the first supporters of Louis Philippe, but had been disappointed in his revolutionary expectations and had resigned in March 1831. The annual report urged the dangers of counter-revolution, which was conceived in strengthening, and was particularly hostile to the current government of Prime Minister Pierre Casimir Perier.
Course
The confrontation with the government began on June 2, 1832 on the occasion of the funeral of the young Republican Évariste mathematician Galois, which were attended by three thousand government critics. When three days later, was on June 5, General Jean Maximilien Lamarque, he also Republicans, buried, the funeral turned into an anti-royalist demonstration. The Republicans set up barricades and hoisted the red flag. Fighting broke out with the army and the National Guard, which continued until the evening, and for the time being remained without result.
The next day, on June 6, King Louis Philippe returned from Castle Saint-Cloud back to the capital and ordered to put down the uprising. There was heavy fighting with about eight hundred dead. At the end of the day, the insurgents were defeated. On the same day, the government imposed order of the king state of siege in Paris: With the same decree also jurisdiction over the revolutionaries of the military jurisdiction was transferred to ensure severe punishment possible. After this action had caused renewed unrest among Republicans and even moderate royalists, the French Court of Cassation annulled on June 18, the ministerial decree by, he relied on appropriate article of the Charter. Thereupon the king added this parable, and took back his order, after which the pending were remanded back to the ordinary trial by jury. However, unexpectedly severe sentences were also precipitated by those courts - including seven death sentences, which, however, soon transformed the king in prison.
Follow
The June Uprising of 1832 saw himself as a republican- democratic completion of the movement, which had 1830 with the July Revolution begun and many left unsatisfied. He also failed because it was the Republicans, mostly intellectuals, artists and educated classes, not succeeded in mobilizing broad sections of the population for their goals. Given the failure of the uprising have seen optimistic Republicans in the court- enforced withdrawal of the order of the special court by the king a small victory of law over the government authoritarianism, which had if persisted also in the constitutional framework, over 1830 time.
