Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the decline of the autocratic monarchy in Russia during the early 20th century, leading up to the Revolution. The author argues that the nobility and bureaucracy, who supported the Tsar, could not maintain their privileges against the growing tide of social change. While they ruthlessly persecuted revolutionaries, they only increased support for them. This study identifies the intelligentsia as the driving force behind the revolutionaries, leading to a fatal clash that destroyed the old regime. The author shows the Russian people's dissatisfaction with their political and economic situation, highlighting the importance of the peasantry's land hunger as a contributing factor to the Revolution. This meticulously researched account provides valuable insights into the complex social and political forces that shaped one of history's most transformative events. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
