Bonapartists
Bonapartism () is the political ideology supervening from Napoleon Bonaparte and his followers and successors. The term was used in the narrow sense to refer to people who hoped to restore the House of Bonaparte and its style of government.

Karl Marx, a student of Jacobinism and the French Revolution, was a contemporary criti ...
