(The first uprising of a community of Lyonnais silk worker...)
The first uprising of a community of Lyonnais silk workers in 1831 has held a constant fascination to historians, including the young Karl Marx, because it is considered the earliest example of open warfare between the working class and bourgeois society. Robert Bezucha shows that the second uprising in Lyon in 1834 has equal importance as a benchmark in the development of collective violence, standing at the intersection of reactionary and modern violence.
