The Abolition of Serfdom in Russia

Meer over het boek

The book offers an in-depth analysis of the abolition of serfdom in Russia, framing it as a gradual process rather than a singular event. It explores the origins of this significant change starting in 1762 and its completion by 1907, drawing on recent research from both Russian and Western historians. The text is enhanced by previously untranslated documents, a glossary, a chronology, and recommendations for further reading, making it both engaging and accessible for readers interested in Russian history.
