Description

Explore the life of a central figure in Russian history with this definitive biography of Martov, the founder and leader of the Mensheviks. Published by Cambridge University Press, this work provides a detailed account of his early years and his development as a revolutionary leader in Vilno and St Petersburg during the 1890s. Readers will follow his complex relationship with Lenin, from their early friendship and shared work on the Iskra newspaper in Munich and London to the historic split at the Second Congress of Russian Social Democrats in 1903. This book traces the evolution of the Menshevik and Bolshevik divide and the personal feud that followed. From his involvement in the 1905 revolutions to his later leadership of the Menshevik-Internationalists, this biography offers a deep look into the political movements that shaped the Russian social democratic landscape. It is an essential read for students and historians interested in social and urban history.
