Joseph Dietzgen (1828–1888) occupies an important place in the history of socialism. According to Frederick Engels, Dietzgen discovered the philosophy of dialectical materialism independently of Karl Marx, himself, and even of G.W.F. Hegel. This is all the more significant because Dietzgen was not middle class or university educated, as were most who contributed to the Marxist theoretical tradition. He was of working-class origin, a tanner by profession, and self-educated. The founders of Marxism thought highly of this proletarian philosopher. In 1867, after reading a fragment of his work, Marx wrote, in agreement with Engels, that “the autodidactic philosophy – pursued by the workers themselves – has made great progress in the case of this tanner”. A year later, he described Dietzgen as “one of the most gifted workers I know”. His writings “contained much that was excellent, and – as the independent product of a

Obviously, one must take into account the particular situation of France and Paris in 1870, to recall the history of this event and its particular specific gravity. The Paris Commune was an extraordinary insurrection of the people of Paris. It lasted only 72 days, from March 18 to May 21, 1871, and was ferociously repressed during the bloody week of May 21 to 28, 1871. The causes of the Commune are both social and political. The Parisian working classes, workers, craftsmen and small shopkeepers lived in very difficult conditions; poverty was often extreme and working hours were around 11 hours a day. The political situation was dramatic. The Second Empire of Napoleon III collapsed following the defeat in the war against Prussia and the German Empire was proclaimed in Versailles on January 18, 1871. The Parisian population, which had suffered a very hard siege since September 1870, did not accept the capitulation. It enrolled massively in the National Guard and elected its officers. At the same time the newly elected National Assembly, with a monarchist majority, and the government, led by Thiers, fled Paris, which for them was “the capital of the revolutionary idea.” They settled in Versailles and made an agreement with Bismarck to crush the insurrection.

One hundred and fifty years ago on March 18, 1871, the Paris Commune declared itself the governing power in the city of two million and proceeded to build what the Communards called a “Democratic and Social Republic.” The Commune’s confederation of directlydemocratic neighborhood assemblies coordinated by a mandated and recallable Communal Council still provides today the institutional model for realizing the Green Party’s principle of Grassroots Democracy. The Paris Commune was last of a series of uprisings by the sansculottes, which literally means without fashionable silk knee-breeches worn by the nobility and bourgeoisie. The common working people wore trousers. The sans-culottes were the artisanal working class and the lower-middle class of small-scale shopkeepers, producers, and merchants. Their uprisings began with the Great French Revolution of 1789–1794 and kept re-occurring, notably in 1830 and 1848, and finally in 1871. The people wanted democratic self-government as opposed to the militaristic republics that quickly devolved back into the monarchies that the original French Revolution had sought to overthrow. The Paris Commune ended two months after it began during the Bloody Week of May 22–28, a week of unspeakable mass murder by a counterrevolution that literally exterminated the revolutionary class of sans-culottes in Paris.
