Russian Liberalism: From Gentry to Intelligentsia (Russian Research Center studies) by George Fischer
Requirements: .PDF reader, 14,7 Mb
Overview: Did a Western-type free society have a chance in Russia? How did pre-Communist Russia and its liberals differ from the West? And how does liberalism, as the non-revolutionary opposition in autocratic Russia, compare to the present-day moderates in the new nations of Asia and Africa? What role is played by the intelligentsia, and particularly by the “lower intelligentsia?” In general, what light does Russian liberalism throw on the evolution of the West, of underdeveloped societies, of Russia yesterday and Russia today? These are the questions explored by George Fischer through an analysis of a decisive period and a neglected aspect of Russia’s past.
