Paris Commune Part 5: Aftermath

We witness the aftermath of the Paris Commune and learn the fates of those who fought on its behalf as well as those who fought to suppress it. We then examine the far-reaching effects the events of 1870-1871 had on the history of France, the socialist movement, and the world more generally.
