Description

Explore a transformative period in world history with this scholarly work from the Routledge Series on Russian and East European Studies. Following the Crimean War, the Russian autocracy underwent a massive renovation of its social, political, and economic systems by emancipating approximately 23 million privately-owned serfs. This book provides a detailed examination of the emancipation process. It looks at the specific mechanisms used to enact these massive reforms and explores how these changes impacted Russian politics and society over the long term. Because the autocracy lacked the resources to manage such a massive shift alone, it had to create new institutions to handle the transition. Readers will gain a deep understanding of how these reforms changed the course of Russian history and the development of civil society. This text is an essential resource for students and historians interested in the social and political evolution of Eastern Europe and the structural changes that defined the Russian empire.
