Since the collapse of the USSR there has been a growing interest in
the Stolypin Land Reform as a possible model for post-Communist
agrarian development. Using recent theoretical and empirical
advances in Anglo-American research, Dr Pallot examines how
peasants throughout Russia received, interpreted, and acted upon
the government's attempts to persuade them to quit the commune and
set up independent farms. She shows how a majority of peasants
failed to interpret the Reform in the way its authors had expected,
with outcomes that varied both temporally and geographically. The
result challenges existing texts which either concentrate on the
policy side of the Reform or, if they engage with its results, use
aggregated, official statistics which, this text argues, are
unreliable indicators of the pre-revolutionary peasants reception
of the Reform.
