Why do some state-building efforts succeed when others fail? Using
formerly unavailable archival sources, this book presents an
explanation for the rise and subsequent collapse of the Soviet
state. The study explains how personal networks and elite identity
served as informal sources of power that influenced state strength.
Reconstructing the State also offers alternative interpretations of
how the weak Bolshevik state extended its reach to a vast rural and
multi-ethnic periphery as well as the dynamics of the
center-regional conflict in the 1930s that culminated in the Great
Terror.
