Making Peasants Backward : Agricultural Cooperatives and the Agrarian Question in Russia, 1861-1914, Paperback / softback Book

Making Peasants Backward : Agricultural Cooperatives and the Agrarian Question in Russia, 1861-1914 Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In this first monograph on the Russian cooperative movement before 1914, economic and social change is considered alongside Russian political culture.

Looking at such historical actors as Sergei Witte, Piotr Stolypin, and Alexander Chaianov, and by tapping into several newly opened Russian local and state archives on peasant practice in the movement, Kotsonis suggests how cooperatives reflected a pan-European dilemma over whether and to what extent populations could participate in their own transformation.
