Today in Labor History June 6, 1832: French monarchist forces put down the June Rebellion (AKA the Paris Uprising of 1832). The uprising, lasting from June 5-6, involved Republicans trying to overthrow the monarchy. The uprising played a prominent role in Victor Hugo’s “Les Misérables.” In addition to anger over the persistence of the monarchy, the population was furious over their poverty and the vast wealth gap between the classes. Crop failures, food shortages and high inflation also contributed to the uprising. And a cholera outbreak earlier in the year had killed over 18,000 Parisians (over 100,000 French, in total). Also preceding this rebellion was the Canut workers revolt in Lyon.

“The Society of the Rights of Man,” a Jacobin organization, led the uprising. They had a well-organized army and they were supported by workers of many nationalities, including Polish, Italian and German refugees. Initially, the rebels were victorious, conquering major portions of Paris. However, on the night of June 5, 20,000 National Guardsmen, bolstered by 40,000 regular army troops, surrounded the rebels and ultimately put them down by June 6.
