The First World War had a devastating impact on the Russian state,
yet relatively little is known about the ways in which ordinary
Russians experienced and viewed this conflict. Melissa Kirschke
Stockdale presents the first comprehensive study of the Great War's
influence on Russian notions of national identity and citizenship.
Drawing on a vast array of sources, the book examines the patriotic
and nationalist organizations which emerged during the war, the
role of the Russian Orthodox Church, the press and the
intelligentsia in mobilizing Russian society, the war's impact on
the rights of citizens, and the new, democratized ideas of Russian
nationhood which emerged both as a result of the war and of the
1917 revolution. Russia's war experience is revealed as a process
that helped consolidate in the Russian population a sense of
membership in a great national community, rather than being a test
of patriotism which they failed.
