This study offers a rare perspective on the social and political
crisis in late Imperial Russia. Mark D. Steinberg focuses on
employers, supervisors and workers in the printing industry as it
evolved from a state-dependent handicraft to a capitalist industry.
He explores class relations and the values, norms and perceptions
with which they were made meaningful. Using archival and printed
sources, Steinberg examines economic changes, workplace relations,
professional organizations, unions, strikes and political activism,
as well as shop customs, trade festivals and everyday life. He
describes efforts to build a community of masters and men united by
shared interests and moral norms. The collapse of this ideal in the
face of growing class conflict is also explored, giving a full view
of an important moment in Russian history.
