This collection provides scholars and students with a wide-ranging
overview of the issues, events and personalities of the two
turbulent decades before the 1917 revolution in Russia. In
particular, it analyzes the motivations and activities of the
various political parties operating during the reign of Tsar
Nicholas II, nicknamed by his opponents "Nicholas the Last."
The factions examined range from the most radical foes of the
tsarist regime, including the anarchists, the Socialists
Revolutionaries, and the Social Democrats, such as the Mensheviks
and Bolsheviks, to conservative and monarchist groups loyal to the
imperial system.
The book also considers the response to intense political
activity and the revolutionary upheaval from state institutions
such as the police and the church. The volume brings together the
most recent scholarship and a variety of perspectives, including
those based on new discoveries in the Russian archives after the
fall of Communism.
