François Pierre Guillaume Guizot (French: [fʁɑ̃swa pjɛʁ ɡijom ɡizo]; 4 October 1787 – 12 September 1874) was a French historian, orator, and statesman. Guizot was a dominant figure in French politics prior to the Revolution of 1848.advised those who wanted the vote to “enrich yourselves” (enrichissez-vous) through hard work and thrift. As Prime Minister, it was Guizot’s ban on the political meetings (called the campagne des banquets or the Paris Banquets, which were held by moderate liberals who wanted a larger extension of the franchise)[3] of an increasingly vigorous opposition in January 1848 that catalyzed the revolution that toppled Louis Philippe in February and saw the establishment of the French Second Republic. He is mentioned in the famous opening paragraph of the Communist Manifesto (“a spectre is haunting Europe…”) as a representative of the reactionary forces of Old Europe. Marx and Engels published that book just days before Guizot’s overthrow in the 1848 Revolution.
