Acknowledgements My inspiration for having embarked upon the task of compiling this work can be traced back to my experience as a postgraduate student at the (then) Institute of Soviet and East European Studies at the University of Glasgow in the early 1980s. In the second year of an M.Phil. degree I took a course on the `The Russian Revolution and Civil War', which was organized and taught by Evan Mawdsley and Jimmy White. In the first class I was handed a course bibliography by Evan which, I was astounded to discover, must have been all of twenty pages long. Dismayed at the prospect of so much reading interrupting my time in the snooker room, `Has that much really been written about the revolution?' I wondered. Later, scanning the shelves of the Institute's superb library, I discovered that there were many books and articles on the subject which had not even made it onto the list. Some of them were by Jimmy White and Evan Mawdsley. Going on to write a PhD thesis on the period, I soon discovered there were many more. Several years later, in preparation for teaching my own Special Subject on the revolution at the University of Aberdeen (a course only influenced in terms of its title, content and teaching by that which Evan and Jimmy had run at Glasgow), I decided to update their bibliography and to fill in the gaps. I've been doing that ever since. Traces of the structure of Evan and Jimmy's course bibliography are still discernible in this volume, and I fully and gratefully acknowledge their abiding influence upon me as teachers and scholars. Having found the inspiration, there remained only the perspiration of actually compiling this book. This could not have been achieved without the ceaseless efforts on my behalf of the Inter-Library Loans section of the library of Queen Mary, University of London, in particular the section's former head, Susan Richards, who good-humouredly provided invaluable assistance in tracking down innumerable items over the past few years. I am grateful too to my friend Paco Romero of Guildhall University, who identified and assisted with the annotation of most of

the Spanish-language items included in this volume. (A. J. P. Taylor once said that any reasonably intelligent person can learn to read Italian. Even if this is true, I have found that the same definitely does not apply to Spanish.) References and information regarding diverse items have also been provided for me at a steady and generous rate by fellow members of the Study Group on the Russian Revolution, whose patience with my comments on their papers at the annual conference (invariably along the lines of `Did you know that X published a paper on your subject in the Milwaukee Journal of Journalism in 1927?') never ceases to amaze. Not one of them has ever hit me. Yet. Several generations of Queen Mary final-year students on my Special Subject on the revolution have also uncovered references to materials which might otherwise have passed me by. I owe special thanks to my PhD student, Ben Wells, and to Lars Fischer, both of whom worked dedicatedly and assiduously for me as research assistants in the final months of this project, collecting and correcting publication details and writing suggestions for annotations for those items with which I had neglected to deal myself (mostly because, I have to confess ± and as Ben and Lars immediately discovered ± I knew they would be the most difficult to locate and the most tedious to read). My colleagues in Queen Mary's Department of History are also deserving of my thanks for providing such a lively and friendly environment in which to work and for covering my teaching during the sabbaticals which I have enjoyed in order to pursue this project since coming to London in 1992, while I am also grateful to Jeremy Hicks of the Department of Russian for providing advice and suggestions regarding the entries on literature and film in the bibliography. To the dedicatees of the volume I also dedicate my life. Needless to say, as in life, all errors and omissions in the volume are my own responsibility. I wish it could be otherwise.

Introduction NATURE AND SCOPE OF THE BIBLIOGRAPHY

which is before you. This, therefore, has not been attempted.1 However, although English-language publications still constitute the majority of works listed, an effort has been made to identify, locate and annotate for inclusion in this volume key works in the other major West European languages (French, German, Italian and Spanish, with a few additional items in Dutch, Danish and other languages), in particular those dealing with subjects in which those West European states or their peoples were most closely involved: the German invasion of parts of western and southern Russia, Belorussia, the Baltic provinces and Ukraine in 1917 to 1918, for example, generated a host of materials in German; French intervention in the civil war similarly gave rise to numerous scholarly accounts and memoirs in French; and the important roles played in the early years of the Comintern by figures of the Italian and Spanish Left inspired many works in those languages.

No bibliography can justifiably claim completeness, perhaps least of all one which deals with the history of the revolutions and civil wars which raged across (and beyond) the mighty expanses of the former Russian Empire in the years 1917 to 1921. This period, despite the late twentieth-century collapse of the communist reÂgimes in Eastern Europe and the USSR, remains one of the most studied in history and one which has generated a huge flow of literature in the decades which have passed since the events themselves. The consequent limitations of The Russian Revolution and Civil War, 1917±1921: An Annotated Bibliography will be explained below. I hope, however, that, whatever its limitations, this volume will be of use to scholars of the period, for until now historians of the revolution have had no dedicated bibliography and little claim to bibliographical control over the literature. It is remarkable that for more than half a century the closest thing to a dedicated bibliography remained P. Grierson, Books on Soviet Russia, 1917±1942: A Bibliography and a Guide to Reading (London: Methuen, 1943). This is an extensive, elegantly organized and cogently annotated work, covering the first decades of Soviet rule, with heavy emphasis on the formative period, but obviously (despite later republication) it deals only with works published in the first twenty-five years after the revolutions of 1917. More recently there has appeared M. Frame, The Russian Revolution, 1905±1921: A Bibliographic Guide to Works in English (London: Greenwood Press, 1995), but although this is a work of considerable value to the historian, it is not annotated and (like Grierson) covers a rather broader period than the present volume. Apart from its focus on the key years of 1917 to 1921, what I hope will make this bibliography of particular utility is the fact that it is not limited to English-language sources. To have attempted to include materials in the East European and Russian languages would have made for an even more Herculean task than the compilation of this volume turned out to be and would have resulted in a volume of an even more indecent corpulence than the one

The problems encountered during the ten years or so which I have dedicated to this project have been numerous. If the latest, and by no means the least taxing, was to convince myself that it was time to stop collecting and locating titles and to publish the book, then the first was to determine the chronological expanse of `the Russian Revolution and Civil War'. In the end, following established practice, the February Revolution of 1917 was chosen as a starting point and the 10th Party Congress of March 1921 (which marked the switch to NEP, the last really significant battles of the civil war, and the de facto international recognition of the Soviet government through the Anglo-Soviet Trade Agreement) was chosen as the terminus. However, it is obvious that in many respects these dates are inadequate: the origins of the political and social explosions of 1917 lie deep in Russian history; insofar as the events of the revolution and civil war, as they became manifest all across the old empire, were as much about nationalism as they were about socialism, an equally good case could be made for identifying the first rumblings of the coming turmoil in the Kazakh revolt of 1916; in the east, the territory of the Far Eastern Republic was not incorporated into Soviet Russia until 1922 and Japanese occupation of the island of Sakhalin did not end until 1925; in Central Asia, pockets of xxiii

Introduction resistance to Soviet rule held out until the 1930s, as Basmachi warriors fought off the invading Russian infidels. All these subjects, and more, therefore, were deemed to deserve coverage and inclusion in this volume, despite the dates given in its title.2 In sum, although the compiler of any bibliography has to face the problem of defining the limits of his subject, it became increasingly obvious to me that this is a particular problem when dealing with a subject as limitless as I found the Russian revolution to be as my work progressed. After all, the abdication of Nicholas II marked something more consequential than the mere termination of a dynasty. It marked the beginning of a great imperial disintegration. Within months a host of subjugated peoples took the opportunity to declare their independence from Russia or, at least, to assert their autonomy, while both Russia's allies and her enemies in the Great War became increasingly interested and then entangled in the politics of the revolution and the battles of the civil war. Consequently, in attempting to present as comprehensive a bibliography as possible of the revolutionary period, due coverage has had to be afforded to matters as thematically and geographically diverse as the resurrection of Poland and the newly independent Finland in the west, British imperial and strategic interests in Persia, Afghanistan and Mesopotamia, the creation of an independent Mongolia, the kindling of Japanese±American rivalry on the mainland of East Asia, the explosion of modernist creativity in the arts, the mass emigration of Russians to Europe, Asia and America, the creation of an independent Czechoslovakia, and the outbreak of pogroms in Ukraine and elsewhere. That is to say that my approach to what constitutes `the Russian Revolution and Civil War', which is reflected in the content and organization of this volume, is one which identifies in these years something more than simply the creation of a communist state. Although the Bolshevik triumph in the creation of a Soviet state was of major significance, it was not and is not the only available (or useful) narrative of the revolutionary period. Vladimir Brovkin made a subtle but telling reference to this in subtitling a recent book The Revolution and the Civil Wars ± he might equally have pluralized the word `revolution' ± and in pointing out that the elevation of the Bolshevik Party, the Soviet State and Soviet Society was not all that matters about the revolutionary period: `In fact there were many parties and movements; there was no state, only pieces of the old state warring with one another; and there certainly was no one society during the civil war, but at best a society torn to pieces.'3 In fact, although historians as influential (if as ideologically opposed) as E. H. Carr

and Richard Pipes made the centripetal force of Bolshevism the focus of their pioneering books of the 1950s,4 the content of this volume reflects my own sympathy with those, such as Geoff Eley, who have argued that `the coherence of the overall revolutionary experience was only fitfully imposed by the Bolsheviks' universalizing vision of a new European order, combined with the centralizing logic of the new state's efforts to survive during the civil war'.5 Major regional experiences (in the Baltic provinces, Ukraine, Transcaucasia, Central Asia, Siberia and elsewhere) were in many ways separate revolutionary processes with an integrity of their own. This is not a new approach ± John S. Reshetar Jr applied it to Ukraine as long ago as 1952 and since then many other historians have illuminated the distinct histories of the revolution and civil war across the regions of what had been the Russian Empire6 ± but it is one which deserves restating. Equally, it has been noted that, at least in the years which are the focus of this volume, many of the peoples of the old empire, from Finland to Georgia, particularly those dwelling in the countryside, were as much affected by `the ethno-political territorial wreckage left by collapse of the short-lived greater-German imperium of Brest-Litovsk' as they were by the explosion of Russian, urban Bolshevism.7 The cumulative effects of war, imperial collapse and German occupation radically dislocated existing social organizations, strengthened antagonisms between groups and inaugurated new ones. No excuse needs to be made, therefore, for the fact that in a volume of this title the reader will find a larger number of works listed relating to the intervention of the Central Powers in 1918 than he or she will of those relating specifically to the events of either the February or the October revolution of 1917 in Petrograd. That more than twice as many items again are listed in the section dealing with the Allied intervention during the civil war is merely a reflection of the fecundity of British, American and French publications on this subject ± itself a factor, in part, of the inflated significance which the intervention assumed in cold war rhetoric. It certainly does not in any way alter my belief that the impact of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk and the Turko-Austro-German intervention of early 1918 was far more decisive in shaping the history of the subsequent years (in matters ranging from the nature and scope of political debate within the Bolshevik party, to the successes and failures of non-Russian nationalist movements, to the motivations and inspirations of the anti-Bolshevik camp) than was the presence of the few thousand Japanese, American, British and French troops who were scattered around the far-flung northern, eastern and southern peripheries of Russia by the end of that year.8 xxiv

Introduction Having established that subjects worthy of inclusion in a volume such as this were many times more numerous than, and not always as obvious as, might immediately be suggested by its title, it became rapidly apparent that, nevertheless, some subjects would perforce and for a variety of reasons be covered in greater depth and breadth than others. For example, the cultural and artistic revolution strikes me as being an important facet of the years 1917 to 1921. Without an appreciation of it, one is unable to place Bolshevism within the modernist context from which it sprang. One could claim almost as much for the related developments in religion and religious affairs, education, science and so on. Yet, these are areas in which my own expertise is by far the weakest. I have sought and commissioned advice and assistance from those with more knowledge, which helped considerably in the identification and selection of works worthy of inclusion in the chapter covering `Art, Science, Culture, Education and Religion', but I am afraid that bibliographical coverage therein might be less comprehensive than in other areas, although I hope that I have achieved my general purpose in providing the sort of guide to sources in this field which a historian of the Russian revolution (rather than an art historian, a religious historian, or a historian of science or education) would find most useful. I am equally certain that my critical commentary on the items listed in that section is less insightful, if (I hope) not less accurate, than should be the case elsewhere. A slightly different problem arose in relation to the chapters dedicated to `Soviet Foreign Policy and the Comintern' and `The International Impact of the Russian Revolutions', dealing as they do with the impact of the revolution abroad. Given the seminal influence of the Bolshevik revolution upon the history of the twentieth century, these are such amorphous subjects that works dealing with a wide range of topics in recent history might have been deemed worthy of inclusion ± from the rise of Nazism to the origins of the cold war to the `Lennonism' and student politics of the 1960s. By and large, therefore, in these chapters, the intention has been to provide a guide to sources on the immediate impact of the revolution, the Comintern and Soviet foreign policy in the years 1917 to 1921; broader, more long-term and more thematic treatments have been excluded. Finally in this regard, for reasons which are selfevident, the chapter entitled `The Last Years of Tsardom' can have no claim towards completeness, serving only to introduce readers to a limited number of key works.

CONTENTS OF THE BIBLIOGRAPHY The present volume is a consequence of many years of intensive searching of the catalogues of important libraries, of published and unpublished general and specific bibliographies, of the notes and bibliographies of thousands of published histories, journals and articles, and of electronic information systems.9 My approach to this task has been a serendipitous (I believe) mixture of the methodical and the haphazard. Scouring bibliographies, journal indexes, catalogues and internet search engines has turned up a large number of sources of which I (and, in all likelihood, others in the field) might otherwise have remained in blissful ignorance. How many historians of the Russian revolution, for example, regularly seek for important information on their subject in the Scandinavian Yearbook of Folklore, Aerospace History, the Mennonite Quarterly Review, the Journal of Religion and Psychical Research, Historical Genealogy, the Flinders Journal of History and Politics, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the Rocky Mountain Social Science Journal, the American Journal of Cardiology, or the Journal of Law and Criminology? Articles from all these titles are listed in the bibliography, which could not have happened had I limited myself to searching the indexes of the obvious journals in the fields of History, Politics and Russian/ Soviet Studies. However, by far the richest vein of information on materials relating to the subject of the Russian revolution and civil war has been the references provided in the published works of scholars in the field. Following up others' references to articles and books (and then following up the references to be found in them) has been a rewarding, if very time-consuming, business. Above all, as the compiler of this volume, I had it brought home to me how important it was to actually read (for the purpose of providing the annotations), however cursorily, the items to be listed. At least 90 per cent of the works listed in this volume were examined de visu. With the exception of the majority of the contemporary observations and commentaries published in periodicals which are listed in the bibliography, which have not been annotated for reasons of space (and whose titles are usually a good enough guide to their content), works which are not annotated have not been examined, although their existence has been verified. The types of material included are the following: published books and other separately bound titled items, including scholarly pamphlets and edited collections of documents; articles and essays from scholarly, professional and popular journals; chapters and essays from edited collections and Festschriften; published bibliographies and historiographies; pubxxv

Introduction lished memoirs, reminiscences and letters; and published speeches and interviews. In each case only the first edition, printing or translation (in the case of works originally published in a non-West European language) of an item is listed and annotated, unless it subsequently appeared in a substantially revised form, in which case details of the latter are given in the annotation. The following types of materials have been excluded: those published after 1 January 2000 (with a few exceptions); non-published materials, such as archival holdings, theses and dissertations;10 nonprint items, such as audiovisuals and web pages; contributions to daily and weekly newspapers; juvenile literature; works published in Western European languages in the Soviet Union and its satellites, including East Germany (although some exceptions have been made for particularly important books); book reviews (except in cases where the annotation to a work adjudged to be particularly important or controversial includes references to extended reviews and review articles of the work). This division was fairly easy to establish and to maintain. Less straightforward to put into practice was my decision to exclude from the bibliography items with a purpose which was fundamentally polemical rather than historical. With a subject so politically divisive (in both the short and long term) as the Russian revolution, the imperative to persuade rather than inform is one which has a tendency to grip even the most professional of historians ± even those writing at many decades' chronological distance from the events themselves. Nevertheless, an effort was made to abide by this decision and to exclude from the bibliography works, usually of marginal interest to scholars, which were written purely to advance political or social goals or to promote certain ideas (although those of some historical interest have been included).11 The users of this bibliography will have to judge for themselves how successful the effort has been.

front of the name but, to avoid confusion, all such authors are listed according to the first (capitalized) letter of the main element of their name (e.g., von Mohrenschildt precedes de Taube). All surnames beginning `Mac' or `Mc' have been treated as if they were the former and listed accordingly (i.e., McClelland precedes Mandel). Where no author, either personal or institutional, is apparent, items have been listed alphabetically by the first main word of the title (i.e., `A', `The', etc. have been discounted). Each main entry has been assigned an arabic number, running in numerical sequence throughout the bibliography, in order to provide a direct method of locating each entry through the author index. Where two or more works by the same author appear within the same subsection they are listed in chronological order of their date of publication. Authors' surnames and the titles and publication details of works have been rendered as they appear on the publication itself (although, in general, only the main place of publication has been indicated, authors' forenames have been rendered as initials and, for the sake of clarity and consistency, the postal abbreviations of US states have been added in cases when they do not appear on the originals, except for obvious city names such as New York, Chicago, Boston, etc.). This implies that the relevant rules of the language concerned have been applied with regard to capitalization. Where variant forms of an author's name appear on separate publications, these variants have been listed separately in the author index with cross-references to the most common or correct rendering of the name, where the item numbers of the publications will appear. In cases where the author used a pseudonym or pen-name, efforts have been made to identify the real name in the annotation and appropriate cross-references have been made in the index. The length of the annotations varies, usually according to what I have judged to be the relative importance of a given title. The purpose of the annotations is fourfold. First (and primarily), they provide information on the contents of the work and, where appropriate, the intended readership, the author's argument and the sources on which the work was based. Secondly, they provide a degree of critical comment on the work, indicating if it is particularly useful (or, indeed, useless), influential or controversial, if it is particularly well written or amusing, or if it contains particularly good bibliographical references or documentary appendices, maps or photographs. Thirdly, the annotations have been used to provide, in the form of subsumed entries, references to other publications by the author which are not listed as main entries (usually because they are identical or near identical to a section of the

ORGANIZATION OF THE BIBLIOGRAPHY The broad organizational pattern of twenty-five chapters (some organized by the type of source, some by subject) should be clear from the table of contents. Within each chapter sources are sorted, again, according to type or subject, into a variety of levels of subsections. Items within each subsection are listed alphabetically by the first letter of the author's surname (including compound surnames, whether hyphenated or not ± e.g., Philips Price, M.) or of the institution, in the case of an institutional author.12 In the case of French, German, Italian and other surnames which include a preposition or an article, the preposition or article has been left at the xxvi

Introduction work listed as the main entry ± for example, an article which is derived from a chapter of a book; or because they take the form of a more general book which, in one or more chapters, summarizes the author's other, more detailed published work on the revolutionary period). Fourthly, also included as subsumed entries within the annotations are references to works about the author of the main entry or about his or her work (although, as noted above, as a rule references are not made to book reviews). In the author index authors whose works are of the latter type (i.e., they are not main entries but appear within an annotation as subsumed entries) have been indicated by an italicized version of the item number of the main entry. Cross-references between annotated items have been kept to a minimum, usually appearing only where a work inspired (or was directly inspired by) another published work. Cross-references have not been used to alert readers to works on the same subject as a listed item, as it is to be hoped that such works would have been assigned to obviously related sections and subsections of the bibliography, which are easily identifiable from the table of contents. Of course, some items could quite properly have been assigned to two (or more) sections and my decisions as to where to place them have necessarily been subjective.

2. I have not, however, for reasons of space, followed the schema of a fairly recent work on the Soviet countryside which emphasizes the continuum of the Bolsheviks' attempts to control the peasantry, through violence and terror, as a single `great conflict in two acts ± 1918±1922 and 1928±1933'. See A. Graziosi, The Great Soviet Peasant War: Bolsheviks and Peasants, 1917± 1933. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Ukrainian Research Institute, 1996. I do, though, regard this as a legitimate approach. For an earlier example of the argument that the history of Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1932 exhibits a `single process', as the end of the civil war had left Bolshevik revolutionary aspirations unsatisfied, as the NEP was nothing more than a temporary retreat, and as the First Five-Year Plan represents not a revolution betrayed but a revolution (belatedly) fulfilled, see: S. Fitzpatrick, The Russian Revolution, 1917±1932. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1982. A similar approach may be found in J. D. Basil, `Russia and the Bolshevik Revolution', Russian Review Vol. 27 (1968), No. 1, pp. 42±53. 3. V. N. Brovkin, (ed.) The Bolsheviks in Russian Society: The Revolution and the Civil Wars.

Moreover, one of the strengths of the historical profession under communism was in the field of bibliography and, as a consequence, Soviet studies of the revolutionary period are comparatively simply identifiable through published Soviet bibliographies.

Examining the Soviet historiographical tradition of the 1930s, which portrayed the October Revolution as a national revolution which had saved Russia from becoming a colony of the West, the author demonstrates that this view had antecedents in the immediate post-revolutionary Soviet writings on October and notes that it was an approach not entirely abandoned after the death of Stalin.

Carr); the `nostalgic-traditionalist view' (Wrangel and Winston Churchill) versus the `visionary-futurist view' (Blok and Trotsky); and `the tragic view' (Rosa Luxembourg, Isaac Steinberg and George Kennan) versus the `ironic view' (Osip LourieÂ and Isaac Deutscher). 83 Bonwetsch, B. `Russland, Oktober 1917: Hegemonie des Proletariats oder Volksrevolution?

81 Baron, S. H. `Plekhanov, Trotsky, and the Development of Soviet Historiography', Soviet Studies Vol. 26 (1974), No. 3, pp. 380±395. The author argues that M. N. Pokrovskii's historical outlook, particularly his view of Russian history and the origins of the revolution, were sharply opposed to those of Plekhanov, that Trotsky's views were more consonant with Plekhanov's than with Pokrovskii's, that the direction taken by Soviet historiography from the 1920s onwards was a consequence of the deliberate efforts of Pokrovskii to suppress the ideas of Plekhanov and Trotsky, and that in Soviet historical writing from the mid-1960s onward could be detected the resurfacing of the ideas of Plekhanov and Trotsky. The article was apparently occasioned by the publication of Malia, M. `Backward History in a Backward Country', New York Review of Books (7 October 1971), pp. 36±40.

100 Ito, T. (ed.) Facing up to the Soviet Past: Soviet Historiography under Perestroika. Sapporo: Hokkaido University Slavic Research Center, 1989. 290 pp. Although this collection of articles suffers from awkward English and lacks an index, and although it contains no article specifically on the revolutionary period, the introductory articles on the `ferment' in Soviet history during the first years of glasnost' (by R.

In this ambitious, irreverent, and highly opinionated piece the author traces the effects of the fall of communism on historians of Russia (especially American historians). Kotkin reviews declassified sources and recent works, and then discusses treatments of a series of selected issues (including the relation of the revolution to the old reÂgime, the `articulation of October after the event', and the nationalities question), arguing that the Russian revolution is like `a mirror in which various elements of modernity found outside the USSR are displayed in alternately underdeveloped, exaggerated, and familiar forms'. The article is followed by two critical commentaries: Gleason, A. `The October Revolution: Invention and Reinvention, Ad Infinitum', pp. 426± 430; and Daniels, R.

The author asserts that `while the analysis of the revolution can never be based on politics alone, the political factors are the decisive ones' ± not least because of `the fact that the revolution was, in the final analysis, the work of one man. Without [Lenin] the revolution would not have happened.' Earlier chapters include (pp. 116±133) a critical review of E. H. Carr's History of Soviet Russia [530].

Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1971. xvi + 383 pp. A survey of Soviet historical writing on some major themes ± most successfully in the extremely useful and lengthy sections devoted to 1920s publications on the various fronts of the civil war, the impact on this branch of historiography of the Stalin cult, and the efforts made to overcome this after 1956, all of which contain references to hundreds of Soviet works.

110 Marot, J. E. `Class Conflict, Political Competition and Social Transformation: Critical Perspectives on the Social History of the Russian Revolution', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 7 (1994), No. 2, pp. 111± 163. Focusing upon D. Koenker and W. G. Rosenberg, Strikes and Revolution in Russia, 1917 [3999], in this provocative article the author argues that recent Western historiography fails to acknowledge that there was a conflict between the workers' demands for Soviet power and their perceived interests and that `the Bolsheviks alone determined a favourable resolution to this conflict [and] steered the revolutionary process to a successful conclusion.' For the responses of two social historians see Smith, S. `Rethinking the Autonomy of Politics: A Rejoinder to John Eric Marot', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 8 (1995), No. 1, pp. 104±116; and Rosenberg, W.

dology and publications of the revisionist school, which the author regards as exhibiting a `stultifying form of political correctness' and a tendency to promote `group think' over individual illumination. For Pipes, the revisionists and social historians are guilty of `ignoring nine-tenths of the stuff of history' and an inability `to distinguish the significant from the trivial'. All in all, he provocatively concludes, having alluded to revisionists' regular participation in American±Soviet academic exchanges, `it [i.e., the social history of the revolution] is no more than a rehash of the interpretation inflicted on the Soviet historical profession by the Communist Party'.

Historiography of Imperial Russia: The Profession and Writing of History in a Multinational State. New York: M. E. Sharpe, 1999. pp. 188±211. In this chapter, drawn from the author's Russia Abroad [3284], Raeff examines how Russian historians in emigration rose to the challenge of interpreting Russia's fate in the light of the revolution and their own exile. The piece provides a very useful introduction to the inter-war centres of eÂmigreÂ historical research in Prague, Berlin and Paris, the conditions under which eÂmigreÂ historians worked and the general character of eÂ migreÂ historiography.

Columbus, OH: Slavica Publishers, 1990. pp. 80±97. Reviewing early Soviet writings on the socialist nature of the revolution and modern Western writings seeking to establish a continuity between the revolutionary and Stalinist periods of Soviet history, the author argues that 1917 was `a combination of an immature bourgeois revolution and a plebian revolution' and concludes that many authors have `exaggerated the connection . . . between the Leninist and Stalinist periods'.

130 Smith, S. `Writing the History of the Russian Revolution after the Fall of Communism', Europe± Asia Studies Vol. 46 (1994), No. 4, pp. 563±578. This provocative article consists of a brief critical review of the Western historiography of the 1970s and 1980s, together with an agenda suggesting ten areas ripe for further research as a consequence of both the fall of communism (which, the author claims, means that `the Russian Revolution has become ``history'' in a new sense') and the rising challenge of postmodernism.

133 Suny, R. G. `Towards a Social History of the October Revolution', American Historical Review Vol. 88 (1983), No. 1, pp. 31±52. In this influential article the author surveys and welcomes the shift of emphasis in Western writings on 1917 away from the study of eÂlites which dominated works published from the 1950s to the 1980s towards the more socio-historical approach to be found in the works of J.

A decade later the author responded to what he saw as a resurgence of `political' interpretations of the revolution, most notably in the works of Richard Pipes (especially The Russian Revolution, 1899±1919 [570]) with the claim that `social history has been given a bum rap' and a reconciliatory request for political and social historians to work together ± see Suny, R.

139 White, J. D. `Early Soviet Historical Interpretations of the Russian Revolution, 1918±24', Soviet Studies Vol. 37 (1985), No. 3, pp. 330±352. In this highly original piece the author challenges the orthodoxy among Western historians ± which he ascribes to deliberate and successful manipulation on the part of Trotsky ± that Soviet historical writings up to the year 1924 are quite trustworthy because the profession was relatively free of political control. Rather, White demonstrates, works from the early period should be handled all the more carefully, as their distortions are less obvious.

A thoughtful review of the wave of Western writings on the revolutions of 1917 which appeared in the years after 1967, and of the new approaches they established. Among the works considered are L.

Jerusalem: Hebrew University of Jerusalem, 1989. 88 pp. A well-referenced, thought-provoking study charting Knizhnik's development from the Orthodox Judaism of his upbringing to his career as a respected (and respectable) historian of the revolution. One need not share the author's conclusion that `without the support of popular and intellectual millenarianism the Bolshevik revolution would not have succeeded at all' to find his observations fascinating and instructive.

Utilizing materials from the Russian archives, the author finds that the start of the anti-Pokrovskii campaign on 27 January 1936 was not solely orchestrated by Stalin, but was prompted by a vigourous lobbying campaign by the likes of A.

193 Butt, V. P., Murphy, A. B. and Swain, G. R. (eds) The Russian Civil War: Documents from the Soviet Archives. London: Macmillan, 1996. xvii + 217 pp. This collection of materials from five important Russian archives is divided into five chapters covering a diverse range of events and issues of the civilwar period: the democratic counter-revolution; the Don Cossack rebellion of 1919; partisans and deserters; the Labour Armies of 1920; and the final White campaign in the Maritime Provinces of 1922.

HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS 190 Brovkin, V. N. (ed. and transl.) Dear Comrade: Menshevik Reports on the Bolshevik Revolution and the Civil War. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1991. xxi + 275 pp. An important collection of previously unpublished party and personal documents of Mensheviks of all strains, providing a vivid contemporary picture of conditions in urban and industrial areas ± especially workers' material conditions, aspirations and political views ± in the period October 1917 to June 1921. The presentation of the documents is marred, however, by the insertion of the editor's (sometimes lengthy) notes into the body of the text in parentheses. The materials were selected from the Boris Nicolaevsky collection at the Hoover Institution.

194 Cash, A. (comp.) The Russian Revolution: A Collection of Contemporary Documents. London: Jonathan Cape, 1967. Collected in this unpaginated folder of materials, intended for teaching purposes, are facsimile copies (some in translation) of a number of documents from 1917 to 1918, ranging from banknotes to broadsheets and propaganda leaflets to some jottings in Lenin's hand.

Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1936. 610 pp. A wide-ranging collection of materials, mostly from the holdings of the Hoover Institution, relating to the events of 1918. The volume's eleven chapters deal with Austro-German intervention; Allied intervention and the Czechoslovak Legion; the Bolsheviks' response to intervention; anti-Bolshevik movements in Central Russia; the Cheka and the Red Army; the Eastern Front; Bolshevik economic policy; the Bolsheviks and the peasants; the constitution of the RSFSR; education; and `sidelights on the Russian scene'.

Historical Collections . 206 NH: University Press of New England, 1984. xxxv + 443 pp. The first two sections of this volume contain a judicious selection of materials relating to `Leninism and the Bolshevik Party to 1917' and `The Bolshevik Revolution, 1917±1921'.

202 McCauley, M. (ed.) The Russian Revolution and the Soviet State, 1917±1921: Documents. London: Macmillan, 1975. xv + 315 pp. A comprehensive selection of key documents, supplemented by statistical information and maps, together with introductory notes by the editor. This volume remains one of the best documentary introductions to the subject for the undergraduate and the non-specialist.

198 Golder, F. (ed.) Documents of Russian History, 1914±1917 (transl. by E. Aronsberg). New York: The Century Co., 1927. xvi + 663 pp. An essential source. Approximately two-thirds of the hundreds of documents collected in this volume (many of them drawn from the pages of Izvestiia and the Kadet newspaper Rech', and many of them otherwise unavailable in translation) relate to the period February to October 1917. Each section is headed by a brief introductory note by the editor, setting the documents in context.

203 Meijer, J. (ed.) The Trotsky Papers, 1917±1922, 2 vols. The Hague/London/Paris: International Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis, 1964±1970. xv + 858 + 894 pp. These important volumes consist of some eight hundred documents (largely telegraphic communications and letters) from Trotsky's files. The Russian originals are reproduced opposite English translations and there are copious informative annotations. Most of the documents are concerned with problems of the organization, discipline and strategy of the Red Army during the civil war. For an account of some of the highlights of the first volume see Schlesinger, R. `Trotsky and the Crisis of the Civil War', Science and Society Vol. 31 (1966), No. 1, pp. 48±58.

199 Jones, M. (ed. and introd.) Storming the Heavens: Voices of October. London: Zwan Publications, 1987. lxiv + 186 pp. This very useful volume includes edited extracts from a number of primary sources, some of them rare, relating to the history of Marxism in Russia, the revolutions of 1917, and diverse other issues (including Kollontai's writings on the women question).

204 MuÈller, E. and SchroÈder, H. H. (comps and transls) Partei, Staat und Sovetgesellschaft: Sozialgeschichtliche Aspekte politischer Macht, Dokumente, 1917±1941. TuÈ bingen: Verlag der TuÈ binger Gesellschaft, 1993. 451 pp. One-third of this useful volume is devoted to documents from the period of the revolution and civil war, most of them being published for the first time in the West. Particularly valuable are selections detailing workers' growing disillusionment with the Soviet reÂgime in 1918, the revival of the SRs and the Mensheviks, and the activities of the Cheka.

200 Koenker, D. P. and Bachman, R. D. Revelations from the Russian Archives: Documents in English Translation. Washington, DC: Library of Congress, 1997. xxv + 808 pp. The first sections of this general collection of hitherto secret materials from the newly opened archives, `The Apparatus of Repression and Terror' and `Intellectuals and the State', include a number of documents relating to the formation and early history of the Cheka and the repression of intellectuals and Kadets during the civil war.

205 Murphy, A. B. (ed.) The Russian Civil War: Primary Sources. London: Macmillan, 2000. 274 pp. Consisting of materials culled from the Russian archives, this collection focuses very strongly on developments in and around the Don region (thereby reflecting its editor's interest in the works of Mikhail Sholokov). The book is, therefore, somewhat misleadingly entitled, although it is certainly valuable for the sector it covers, as well as throwing some new light upon the career of S. M. Budenny.

201 Lorenz, R. (ed.) Die russische Revolution 1917. Der Aufstand der Arbeiter, Bauern und Soldaten, eine Dokumentation. Munich: Nymphenburger Verlagshandlung, 1981. 376 pp. The first attempt in Western historiography to collect materials relating to the role of the masses in the revolutions of 1917, this somewhat disappointing volume presents 204 documents (sixty-nine on workers, sixty-nine on peasants, and sixty-six on soldiers) drawn entirely from published Soviet sources. These materials illustrate the general (increasingly radical) trend of popular politics, but offer little insight into the complex nature of the phenomenon and are consequently of limited use to the specialist.

206 Murphy, A. B. (ed.) `Some Files from RTsKhDNI (1919±1921)', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 13 (2000), No. 2, pp. 62±88. Reproduced here, in a confusingly edited manner, are translations of extracts from a diverse selection of 23

207 . 3 General Documentary Collections documents from the Russian archives, relating to security, economics, supply, administration, etc. in the Red zone during the civil war, together with the interesting (full) text of a Red intelligence report on conditions in Denikin's rear (dated 6 August 1919).

209 Rothnie, N. The Russian Revolution: Documents and Debates. London: Macmillan, 1990. 133 pp. A work designed to provide students with a basic introduction to the subject of the revolutions of 1917 through the presentation of numerous extracts from documentary sources.

207 Pipes, R. (ed.) The Unknown Lenin: From the Secret Archive (assisted by D. Brandenberger; transl. by A. Fitzpatrick). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1996. xx + 204 pp. Included in this collection, arranged chronologically, are more than one hundred documents (mostly authored by Lenin) recently uncovered in Russian archives and hitherto unpublished in the West, the overwhelming majority of them relating to the domestic and foreign policies of the early Soviet state, and none of them to the revolutionary events of 1917. The selection and presentation of the materials was clearly, and unfortunately, too much influenced by the fiercely anti-Communist editor's avowed intention to show that Lenin's policies, `concealed behind a smoke screen of self-righteousness and defensiveness', were `cynical and aggressive', while Lenin himself was `a thoroughgoing misanthrope'. On this volume see Rabinowitch, A. `Richard Pipes's Lenin', Russian Review Vol. 57 (1998), No. 1, pp. 110±113; and, especially, Elwood, R. C. `The ``Unknown'' Lenin', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 10 (1997), No. 1, pp. 97±102. Pipes threatened legal action against Revolutionary Russia, as a consequence of certain of Elwood's criticisms and forced the journal to issue an apology (see the title page of Revolutionary Russia Vol. 11 (1998), No. 1), although Elwood has since established that his criticism was just ± see Elwood's `Lenin's Testimony' [3488]. See also: Pipes, R. `Unpublished Lenin', in V. N. Brovkin (ed.) The Bolsheviks in Russian Society: The Revolution and the Civil Wars. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 201±211.

210 Soria, G. Les 300 Jours de la reÂvolution russe: teÂmoignages et documents. Paris: Robert Lafont, 1967. 413 pp. An unusual and very detailed chronological account of the period February to October 1917, sympathetic to the Bolsheviks and constructed largely from brief extracts from published documents and memoirs and Soviet archival materials. The volume features many rare and interesting photographs. 211 Vulliamy, C. E. (ed.) From the Red Archives: Russian State Papers and Other Documents Relating to the Years 1915±1918 (transl. by A. L. Hynes; introd. by C. T. Hagberg Wright). London: Geoffrey Bles, 1929. 320 pp. A very useful selection of sets of documents culled from the leading Soviet historical journal, Krasnyi arkhiv. Included, together with brief introductions from the editor, are materials relating to Rasputin, the last days of the old reÂgime and the tsar's abdication, conditions in the army during 1917, revolutionary disturbances in the Baltic Fleet in 1915 and the sailors' part in the October Revolution, the policy of the Provisional Government (with particular regard to the land question), the first measures of the Soviet government, and the Allied intervention at Archangel. 212 Wade, R. A. (ed.) Documents of Soviet History, Vol. 1: The Triumph of Bolshevism, 1917±1919. Gulf Breeze, FL: Academic International Press, 1991. xvii + 447 pp. Wade, R. A. (ed.) Documents of Soviet History, Vol. 2: Triumph and Retreat, 1920±1922. Gulf Breeze, FL: Academic International Press, 1993. xvi + 469 pp. The first two volumes of a massive and quite magnificent series of publications. Collected here are translations of many hundreds of contemporary documents relating to all aspects of Soviet society and history (including not only politics but culture, religion, education, the family, international relations, economics, etc.) from published Western and Soviet sources (many of them rare and unusual), with brief headnotes by the editor. The documents are arranged chronologically, but there are included useful listings of documents by main topics as well as indexes of names, subjects and geographic and place names.

208 Ritter, G. A. (ed. and introd.) Die II. Internationale 1918/1919: Protokolle, Memoranden, Berichte und Korrespondenzen, 2 vols. Berlin: Verlag J. H. W. Dietz, 1980. xv + 959 pp. These extensively annotated volumes include, in full, the proceedings of the Berne Conference of the Second International of February 1919, together with those of the Inter-Allied Socialists Conference in London of September 1918 and those of the International's Permanent Commission of April and August 1919. Of most interest to the student of the Russian Revolution are the socialists' comments on the intervention and the Red Terror and other aspects of Bolshevik policy, particularly those contributed by representatives of the SRs and the Mensheviks. 24

Bolshevik/Communist Texts . 220 BOLSHEVIK/COMMUNIST TEXTS

A translation of a selection of the arch-Chekist's writings. The collection was originally published in Russian in Moscow in 1947.

213 Bogdanov, A. A Short Course of Economic Science (transl. and revised by J. Fineberg and S. M. Dvolaitsky). London: Labour Publishing Company, 1923. xi + 391 pp. The first English-language translation of Bogdanov's lost masterpiece of economic theory.

219 Holt, A. (ed., transl. and introd.) Selected Writings of Alexandra Kollontai. Westport, CT: Lawrence Hill, 1977. 335 pp. Almost all of the twenty-four items included in this volume appear in English for the first time. Together they comprise a fair selection of Kollontai's writings, covering her major concerns, although the editor's seven sectional introductions contain some factual errors and gloss over, for example, Kollontai's work in the Zhenotdel '. See also, for the best editions in English of Kollontai's fiction: Kollontai, A. Love of Worker Bees (transl. and introd. by C. Porter; aftwd. by S. Rowbotham).

London: Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1979. viii + 261 pp. This volume contains two of Bukharin's most influential essays: `The Theory of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat' and `The Economics of the Transition Period'. In the former, a development of his prerevolutionary writings on the socialist state, Bukharin attacks the ideas of Karl Kautsky in similar terms to those employed by Lenin and Trotsky at the time of its original publication in 1919. The latter (and much more substantial) piece has been seen as marking a bridge between Bukharin's leftism of 1918 and his position on the right of the party in the 1920s: an ambitious theoretical work, it attempts to set out the economic basis for the construction of socialism on a worldwide scale.

220 Lenin, V. I. Collected Works, 45 vols. Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House, 1960±1970. The fullest version of Lenin's works to be published in English.

216 Bukharin, N. I. and Preobrazhensky, E. The ABC of Communism (ed. and introd. by E. H. Carr). Harmondsworth: Penguin, 1969. 481 pp. Includes the 1919 Party Programme with a commentary which was written a few months later. Carr's lengthy introduction sets the piece in the wider context of utopian thought and examines the genesis of the ideas expressed by the authors. 217 Day, R. B. (ed., introd. and transl.) N. I. Bukharin: Selected Writings on the State and the Transition to Socialism (fwds by S. Cohen and K. Coates). Nottingham: Spokesman, 1982. lviii + 351 pp. Following a number of useful introductory essays are presented here a collection of some of Bukharin's key theoretical writings from the period 1915 to 1929, with particular emphasis given to his works on the nature of the socialist state and to his role as the theoretician and defender of the NEP. 218 Dzerzhinskii, F.

Paris: FrancËois Maspero, 1973. 286 pp. A collection of all Kollontai's major writings on female emancipation, organized thematically into sections dealing with the origins of women's subjugation, the position of women in bourgeois society, and the nature of women's emancipation under communism.

221 Marie, J.-J. Les Paroles qui eÂbranleÁrent le monde: anthologie bolcheÂvique 1917±1924. Paris: EÂditions du Seuil, 1967. 363 pp. This anthology of well-annotated but overly abridged excerpts from texts and accounts by numerous prominent Bolsheviks is structured chronologically in six parts ranging from the February Revolution to the rise of Stalin, each section being introduced by a useful chronology. Appended are some forty brief biographies.

227 Trotsky, L. D. The Defence of Terrorism (pref. by H. N. Brailsford). London: Labour Publishing Co., 1921. 7±126 pp. In this, one of his most influential works, a defense of the Bolshevik system against attacks made by Karl Kautsky (in a work entitled Terrorism and Communism, a title under which ± confusingly ± The Defence of Terrorism was subsequently republished many times), Trotsky seeks to bring the militarization of life under the conditions of civil war into line with Marxian thought.

222 Radek, K. Portraits and Pamphlets (introd. by A. J. Cummings; annot. by A. Brown). London: Wishart Books, 1935. xx + 306 pp. Included in this fascinating collection are twentyfour articles by Radek, including his observations on Stalin, Woodrow Wilson, Ebert, Lloyd George, Dzierzynski, the women question, imperialism, Romain Rolland, Larissa Reisner, etc. The articles span the years 1918 to 1934, but most were written between 1930 and 1933. In this volume many of them are incorrectly dated.

228 Trotsky, L. D. How the Revolution Armed: The Military Writings and Speeches of Leon Trotsky, 5 vols (transl. and annot. by B. Pearce). London: New Park Publications, 1979±1981. xxiii + 592 + xxii + 655 + xv + 431 + xiii + 480 + viii + 447 pp. This carefully translated, extensively annotated and well-indexed collection of Trotsky's articles, speeches, reports, orders and appeals on military affairs, from the period 1918 to 1923 (originally published in Russian in 1923), provides a peerless documentation of his exceptionally important role as founder and leader of the Red Army during the civil war years. See also Trotsky, L. D. Military Writings. New York: Pathfinder Press, 1971. 160 pp.

223 Richardson, A. (ed. and introd.) In Defence of the Russian Revolution: A Selection of Bolshevik Writings, 1917±1923. London: Porcupine, 1995. xvi + 287 pp. An unusual collection of translations of rare pieces by Lenin, Trotsky, Radek, Bukharin, Kamenev, Zinoviev and Tukhachevskii, relating to the political, economic, military and theoretical problems of the revolution. Graphically revealed herein are the shortcomings ± as writers and theoreticians ± of some of the Bolshevik leaders other than Lenin, Trotsky and Bukharin.

229 Trotsky, L. D. Lessons of October (transl. by S. Lawrence and I. Olsham; pref. by S. Lawrence). London: Labour Publishing Co., 1925. xii + 13±80 pp. This is the first English translation of Trotsky's subsequently much republished essay of 1924 in which, at the height of the power of the Zinoviev± Kamenev±Stalin Triumvirate, he implicitly attacked its members for their role in 1917 while, reflecting upon the failure of the Communist rising in Germany of 1923, attempting to show how and why the Bolsheviks had succeeded in Russia through the notion of the `Soviet legality' of the October Revolution. For a (Trotskyite) guide to the work see Levi, P. `Introduction to Trotsky's Lessons of October', Revolutionary History Vol. 5 (1994), No. 2.

H. `Black Wave: Bolshevism as Interpreted in Interviews with Four Russian Leaders', Outlook Vol. 121 (30 April 1919), pp. 734±738. Presented here are the author's interviews with four prominent Russian figures (S. Sazonov, N. Chaikovskii, Prince L'vov and Baron Korff), eliciting their views on the revolutions of 1917, the Bolsheviks' goals and policies, and the potential stability of the Soviet reÂgime.

236 Furler, B. Augen-Schein. Deutschsprachige Reportagen uÈber Sowjetruûland 1917±1939. Frankfurt am Main: AthenaÈum Verlag, 1987. 323 pp. An expanded version of the author's doctoral thesis, this perceptive (if somewhat convolutedly written) volume examines and compares perceptions and verifications (Wahrnehmung and Beglaubigung) of Soviet Russia, as detailed in the memoirs and accounts of German-speaking travellers. Unfortunately, the work includes only a brief introductory chapter on `The Revolution and the Civil War, 1917± 1921'.

233 Bezemer, J. W. De russische revolutie in Westerse ogen Stemmen van ooggetuigen. Maart 1917±Maart 1918. Amsterdam: Meulenhoff, 1956. vii + 334 pp. A study of the revolution from the fall of tsardom to the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, as experienced by (and as revealed in the writings of) Western witnesses from the diplomatic and journalistic communities as well as a selection of private visitors to Russia.

237 Glenny, M. and Stone, N. (eds) The Other Russia. London: Faber and Faber, 1990. xx + 475 pp. A collection of extracts, mostly from recorded interviews with surviving eÂmigreÂs, many of them providing a moving portrait of the everyday life of the intelligentsia and nobility during the revolutionary and early Soviet periods and including some remarkable accounts of escape from Soviet Russia.

234 Comte, G. (ed.) La ReÂvolution russe par ses teÂmoins. Paris: Les EÂditions de la Table Ronde, 1963. 322 pp. A survey of events in 1905 and from February to October 1917 constructed from extracts from the published accounts of French, British and Russian observers. The volume also includes many interesting, but poorly reproduced, photographs.

238 Heresch E. Blood on the Snow: Eyewitness Accounts of the Russian Revolution (transl. by S. Brockman). New York: Paragon House, 1990. xiii + 250 pp. An only intermittently interesting selection from published memoirs and the author's interviews with ageing Russian eÂmigreÂs, interlarded with a rather shallow anti-Soviet commentary.

235 Foreign Comrades in the October Revolution. Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House, 1967. 286 pp. Partial in its selection and editorial line, of course, but this volume is of interest for its inclusion (alongside those from the more famous accounts of Western observers, such as John Reed) of extracts from less well known accounts and impressions of October and the revolution in general (for example, those of Tito). Forty-one extracts are included in total.

239 Horsbrugh-Power, A. (ed.) Memories of Revolution: Russian Women Remember. London: Routledge, 1993. xi +139 pp. This volume preserves the childhood memories of some of the last surviving generation of Russian women (most of them from the nobility) to experience the revolution at first hand and gives insight into how it devastated the lives of the aristocracy, the intelligentsia and the foreigners of Moscow and Petrograd in the few weeks after October 1917.

(ed.) Witnesses to the Russian Revolution. London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd., 1964. 308 pp. This volume remains the best of the general collections of eyewitness accounts, drawing testimonies and observations from a wide selection of Russian and non-Russian sources of a variety of political affiliations and knitting them together with well informed and illuminating commentary. The first two chapters are devoted to the period 1905 to 1917.

241 Kupferman, F. (ed.) Au pays des Soviets: Le voyage francËais en Union sovieÂtique, 1917±1939. Paris: EÂditions Gallimard/Julliard, 1979. 188 pp. Included in the text of this volume are extracts from the memoirs and impressions of French visitors to Russia during the revolutionary period, including those of Serge de Chessin [791], Pierre Pascal [375], `Mauricius' [470] and others, as well as the editor's interviews with early visitors. The volume includes a very good bibliography.

247 Pitcher, H. Witnesses of the Russian Revolution. London: John Murray, 1994. xiii + 313 pp. A skilfully woven narrative of the events ± chiefly in Petrograd, although there is one chapter devoted to the October Revolution in Moscow ± from February 1917 to the dispersal of the Constituent Assembly in January 1919, based upon extensive extracts from the published accounts of British and American observers (particularly Harold Williams, Arthur Ransome, M. Philips Price, Robert Wilton, Sir George Buchanan, Sir Alfred Knox and John Reed) as well as upon a number of interesting unpublished accounts of a similar nature.

London: Hamish Hamilton, 1987. pp. 209±227. A recounting of the portraits of Bolshevik Russia to be found in the works of early visitors, including Arthur Ransome, George Lansbury, the members of the British Labour Delegation of 1920 (Edith Snowden, Bertrand Russell and Charles Buxton), H. N. Brailsford and H. G. Wells. The author attempts to draw out the common themes to be found in such accounts.

248 `Remembrance of Things Past. The Years of Revolution: Memoirs and Portraits', Survey No. 63 (1964), pp. 3±164. This special edition of the journal includes a number of hitherto unpublished accounts of visits to Russia, mostly by Western socialists associated with the Comintern, in the period 1919 to 1921. The contents are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

243 Lourie, R. (ed.) Russia Speaks: An Oral History from the Revolution to the Present. New York: Burlingame Books, 1991. 396 pp. Of little interest to the historian, the first chapters of this popular volume contain some reminiscences of the revolution and civil war by Russians interviewed by the author in the 1980s. 244 MacIlhone, R. (ed.) Petrograd, October 1917: Reminiscences. Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House, 1957. 473 pp. Included among this lengthy selection of extracts from previously published memoirs are some unexpected gems, such as the account of the storming of the Winter Palace by the former Minister of Justice of the Provisional Government, Maliantovich.

249 Uhlig, C. Utopie oder Alptraum? Schweizer Reiseberichte uÈber die Sowjetunion, 1917±1921.

251 Nabokov, K. D. The Ordeal of a Diplomat. London: Duckworth, 1921. 320 pp. The memoirs of the Russian Ambassador and ChargeÂ d'Affaires in London from 1914 to 1919 are notable for his unusually critical attitude to both the Whites and the Allied interventionists, and useful for their author's personal contacts with senior British officials. The volume is also notable for the insights it provides into Russian eÂmigreÂ politics in London during the period. See also: Melby, J. F. and Straka, W. W.

Kerensky). New York: Arthur Baker, 1934. 368 pp. Both of these works are essentially extended apologies for the record of the Provisional Government and its premier, the author. Although they remain essential sources, both are unconvincing, poorly organized and marred by the empty rhetoric so characteristic of Kerensky's political oratory. Other of the author's reflections upon the period can be found in: Kerensky, A. F. Soviet Russia in the Autumn of 1919. London: Twentieth Century Press, 1920. 31 pp.; Kerensky, A. F.

252 Nekludoff, A. Diplomatic Reminiscences before and during the World War, 1911±1917 (transl. by A. Paget). London: John Murray, 1920. xiii + 539 pp. The memoirs of a Russian diplomat which include his impressions of the events of 1917, as seen from the embassies in Madrid and Stockholm, as well as the attempts at peace negotiations during the war. (The first edition of this work was withdrawn immediately after its publication in 1920 and amended so as to remove all mention of E. von Schelking.) 253 Rosen, Baron R. Forty Years of Diplomacy, 2 vols. London: Allen & Unwin, 1922. 315 + 309 pp. More of a general narrative than a memoir, the second volume of this work, by a particularly astute and well-informed official of the Russian Foreign Office, touches upon the years 1917 to 1918.

257 Kerensky, A. F. Russia and History's Turning Point: The Kerensky Memoirs. New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1965. xvi + 558 pp. These more formal memoirs of the premier of 1917 contain few surprises and, oddly, seem for the most part to have been written in the 1930s. However, this volume is better organized and less hectoring in tone than Kerensky's earlier volumes and fills in some of the gaps in them with regard to his activities in 1917. Nine-tenths of the volume is devoted to the years 1914 to 1919. For critiques see the review by J. L. H. Keep in Soviet Studies Vol. 18 (1967), No. 3, pp. 376±380; and Neubauer, H. `UÈber den Wert und Unwert von Memorien.

London: Allen & Unwin, 1931. 330 pp. The autobiography of the noted tsarist diplomat and Balkan expert, which includes some interesting pages on events in the Crimea during the revolution and civil war and which concludes with a chapter concerning the fate of Wrangel's forces in exile at Constantinople. See also: Tcharykow, N. V. `Reminiscences of Nicholas II', Contemporary Review No. 134 (1928), pp. 445±453. 255 Vassilyev, A. T. The Ochrana: The Russian Secret Police.

least Inessa Armand, who regularly played to Lenin on the piano in her flat which gave this volume its title. 263 Bukharin, N. I. How It All Began: The Prison Novel (transl. by G. Shriver; introd. by S.F. Cohen). New York: Columbia University Press, 1998. xxxi + 345 pp. This volume presents an excellent translation of one of the manuscripts, written by Bukharin in the Lubianka between his arrest in February 1937 and his execution in March 1938, which were preserved in Stalin's own secret archive in Moscow until their release to Professor Stephen Cohen (as the representative of Bukharin's wife) in the mid-1990s. Bukharin presented the work as a novel, but it is transparently a memoir of his early life in Moscow and elsewhere around the turn of the century. Cohen hints in his introduction that the piece can be read as an Aesopian critique of Stalinism, but, whether or not that is the case, it can also be read as a vivid portrait of pre-war Russia and of the forces that led men of Bukharin's generation into revolutionary politics. The volume has considerable literary merits, despite being unfinished: harrowingly, the work breaks off mid-sentence.

259 Nikitine, B. V. The Fatal Years: Fresh Revelations on a Chapter of Underground History. London: Hodge & Co., 1938. 312 pp. A virulently anti-Bolshevik account of political affairs in Petrograd during the months of March to August 1917, by the chief of the Provisional Government's Counter-Espionage Bureau. The work is notable for the evidence it presents relating to the Provisional Government's knowledge of the supply of German funds to the Bolsheviks. BOLSHEVIKS 260 [Allilueva, A. and Alliluev, S.] The Alliluyev Memoirs (transl. and ed. by D. Tutaev). London: Michael Joseph, 1968. 238 pp. A translation and compilation of the separately published (in Russian) memoirs of Stalin's father-inlaw, Sergei Alliluev (an important Old Bolshevik) and his aunt, Anna (who was imprisoned in 1948, following the publication of her memoirs in the Soviet Union). Covering the period from 1900 to the October Revolution, the volume provides an important source on early Bolshevik organization within Russia, as well as offering some rare personal recollections of the pre-revolutionary Stalin.

264 Gukovskii, A. I. `How I Became a Historian', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 5 (1966±1967), No. 2, pp. 3±26. A fascinating account of the author's work for Zemgor during the First World War and his subsequent service in various capacities in Siberia before entering the Institute of Red Professors and his first teaching assignments with Vkhutmas.

261 Badayev, A. Y. Bolsheviks in the Tsarist Duma. London: Martin Lawrence, 1933. xv + 250 pp. A first-hand account of the parliamentary and extra-parliamentary activities of the Bolshevik deputies in the State Duma from their election in 1912 until their arrest, trial and exile to Siberia a few months after the outbreak of the First World War. A useful memoir, but, being originally published in the USSR in 1929, it was inevitably marred by Stalinist distortions.

265 Ilyin-Genevsky, A. F. From the February Revolution to the October Revolution, 1917. London: Modern Books, 1931. 122 pp. An abridged translation of the memoirs of the brother of F. F. Raskolnikov, including interesting and detailed coverage of his bizarrely schizophrenic service in 1917 as secretary to A. I. Guchkov and as one of the founders and leaders of the Bolsheviks' Military Organization in Petrograd.

262 Body, M. Un piano en bouleau de CareÂlie. Mes anneÂes de Russie (1917±1927). Paris: Hachette, 1981. 320 pp. Sent to Russia as part of the French Military Mission in 1916, Body joined the Bolsheviks during the course of 1917 and later served as a diplomat in Norway before returning to France in 1927, having become deeply disillusioned with the Soviet Union. The memoirs offer a wealth of recollections, charting Body's political and personal involvement with the Bolshevik party and a number of their leaders ± not

266 Kollontai, A. The Autobiography of a Sexually Emancipated Communist Woman (ed. with an aftwd. by I. Fetscher; fwd. by G. Greer; transl. by S. Attanasio). New York: Herder and Herder, 1971. xvii + 137 pp. Written in 1926, after she had been sent to diplomatic exile in Oslo, Kollontai's autobiography is disappointingly, if understandably, guarded and quite dull. In this edition her deletions from the original galley proofs have been reinstated through copious 31

267 . 4 General and Miscellaneous Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts (but distracting) footnotes. Included also is an essay entitled `The New Woman', written shortly after the revolution, but by far the most interesting part of the volume is the afterword by Iring Fetscher, describing Kollontai's role in the Workers' Opposition and her fear of the growing bureaucratization of Soviet society.

271 Reissner, L. Oktober (fwd. by K. Radek). KoÈnigstein: AthenaÈu Verlag, 1979. xxviii + 497 pp. Collecting materials originally published in Germany in 1925 and 1927, the first sections of this volume include the author's detailed accounts of her experiences on the Volga Front in the summer of 1918, and her visits to Astrakhan, Baku and Enseli in 1919, as well as her part in the Soviet mission to Afghanistan in 1920.

267 Koudrey, V. Once a Commissar. London: Hamish Hamilton, 1938. 319 pp. The lively, if not very enlightening, memoirs of service under the Bolsheviks by a man who was a member of Krasin's staff (and, indeed, Krasin's stepson) and who defected in 1924. The volume includes the author's impressions of the revolution in Petrograd and Moscow, an account of his service in Samara and in Siberia in the immediate aftermath of the civil war and details of his accompanying of Krasin on the latter's mission to London. See also Koudrey, V. `Incident of the Russian Revolution', Yale Review Vol. 27 (1938), No. 1, pp. 46±63.

272 Shliapnikov, A. On the Eve of 1917 (transl. by R. Chappell). London: Allison & Busby, 1982. xii + 237 pp. The author, later prominent in the Workers' Opposition, was one of the most senior Bolsheviks resident in Petrograd in early 1917. For a sympathetic review of this and other `relatively impartial' historical works by Shliapnikov, together with an account of how he fell foul of the developing Stalinist historical orthodoxy in the 1920s, see Holmes, L. `Soviet Rewriting of 1917: The Case of Alexander Shliapnikov', Slavic Review Vol. 38 (1979), No. 2, pp. 224±242.

268 Piatnitsky, O. A. Memoirs of a Bolshevik. London: Martin Lawrence, 1933. 224 pp. These propagandistic memoirs (of the notable Ukrainian Bolshevik who was subsequently to become a leading member of the Comintern) cover the period 1896 to February 1917. The final chapters detail Piatnitskii's exile among villages of the Angara valley and the receipt in Siberia of the news of the February Revolution.

273 Trotsky, L. D. My Life: The Rise and Fall of a Dictator. London: Thornton Butterworth, 1930. 512 pp. Trotsky's autobiography, written soon after his exile from the Soviet Union, in which, in characteristically flamboyant style, he attempted not only to describe his own development and experiences as a human being, but also to reverse his political defeat. The volume includes lengthy coverage of the years 1917 to 1921. For a commentary see Kern, G. `Trotsky's Autobiography', Russian Review Vol. 36 (1977), pp. 297±320. The work can be usefully supplemented by Eastman, M. Leon Trotsky: The Portrait of a Youth. London: Faber & Faber, 1926. 197 pp., which covers Trotsky's life up to 1902, as related to the author by Trotsky himself; and Eastman, M. `Great Time of Storm: The Character and Fate of Leon Trotsky', in M. Eastman, Heroes I Have Known. New York: Simon and Schuster, 1942. pp. 239±259.

269 Raskolnikov, F. F. Kronstadt and Petrograd in 1917 (transl. and annot. by B. Pierce). London: New Park Publications, 1982. xiv + 367 pp. These vivid memoirs of the Bolshevik sailors' leader (originally published in 1925 and banned by Stalin in 1937) rank among the most useful sources of information regarding events in 1917 at Kronstadt and in Finland, as well as offering detailed impressions of the April Days, the July Days and the October Revolution. The volume includes numerous rare photographs. 270 Raskolnikov, F. F. Tales of Sub-Lieutenant Ilyin (transl. and annot. by B. Pierce). London: New Park Publications, 1982. xiii + 208 pp. Included in this volume are the author's fascinating accounts of his part in some episodes in the civil war, including the closure of the Constituent Assembly, the scuttling of the Black Sea Fleet, the exploits of the Reds' Kama River Flotilla in October 1918, and the Reds' seizure of Enzeli (in northern Persia) from the British in May 1920. Another chapter recounts Raskol'nikov's own capture in the Baltic by the Royal Navy (and his subsequent imprisonment in London).

NON-BOLSHEVIK RUSSIAN SOCIALISTS Sympathetic to the Bolsheviks/Soviet Government 274 Larsons, M. J. An Expert in the Service of the Soviets (transl. by Dr A. S. Rappoport). London: Ernest Benn, 1929. ix + 213 pp. The author, a Menshevik, worked in the Soviet economic bureaucracy during the civil-war period and in the early chapters of this work recounts the 32

Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1963. 401 pp. A vivid account of the eventful life of the son of a Russian terrorist, sometime anarchist, Bolshevik, Trotskyist, revisionist and `personalist', Victor Kibalchich, including a revealing account of his experiences at work for the Comintern after his return to Russia in 1919. The volume includes a bibliography of Serge's publications. See also Serge, V. Russia Twenty Years After (transl. by M. Shachtman).

275 Liberman, S. Building Lenin's Russia. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1945. v + 228 pp. An unusual, inside view of the early Soviet reÂgime by a Menshevik spets who ran the timber trust and who was sponsored by his friend L. B. Krasin at the Commissariat of Foreign Trade. The work includes some insightful pen-portraits of the character and capabilities of Soviet leaders (including Lenin, Trotsky, Dzierzynski, Larin, Rykov and others) with whom the author was in frequent contact until he left Russia in 1926. 276 Maisky, I. Journey into the Past (transl. by F. Holt). London: Hutchinson & Co., 1962. 288 pp. The memoirs of the noted Soviet Ambassador to Britain, formerly a Menshevik, include telling pen portraits of figures he met in the pre-1914 emigration (including M. M. Litvinov, G. V. Chicherin, F. A. Rothstein and A. M. Kollontai). The final section recounts the London-based eÂmigreÂ community's receipt of news of the February Revolution and details the British government's attitude to their requests for repatriation to Russia in the subsequent weeks. See also: Maisky, I. Before the Storm: Recollections (transl. by G. Shelly). London: Hutchinson & Co., 1944. 176 pp.

280 Serge, V. Revolution in Danger. London: Redwords, 1997. xii + 125 pp. Included in this compendium of Serge's writings on his direct experience of the civil war during 1919 are: `During the Civil War' (originally published as `Pendant la guerre civile' in Les Cahiers du Travail No. 6, 15 May 1921; `The Endangered City' (originally published as `La Ville en danger' in La Vie ouvrieÁre Nos 57±61, 4 June±2 July 1920); and `The Anarchists and the Experience of the Russian Revolution' (originally published as `Les Anarchistes et l'expeÂrience de la reÂvolution russe' in Les Cahiers du travail No. 12, 15 August 1921). The theme of each piece is the author's attempt to justify the terroristic and authoritarian aspects of the Soviet government as necessary evils in the face of the threat of counter-revolution. See also Serge, V. Conquered City (transl. by R. Greeman). London: Writers and Readers Publications Cooperative, 1976. xvi + 195 pp.

277 Mendel, H. Memoirs of a Jewish Revolutionary (pref. by I. Deutscher). London: Pluto Press, 1989. 367 pp. The interesting memoirs of a Jewish revolutionary socialist born in 1893, including his eyewitness account of the events of October to November 1917 in Moscow and details of his subsequent underground activities in Ukraine and Poland. 278 Mstislavskii, S. Five Days Which Transformed Russia (transl. by E. K. Zelensky; introd by W. G. Rosenberg). London: Hutchinson, 1988. xi + 155 pp. The first English translation of a work written in 1918 by a militant populist leader of the Left-SRs. Mstislavskii's account of five key revolutionary episodes in which he participated (the February rising, the founding of the Provisional Government, the arrest of Nicholas II, the October Revolution, and the dispersal of the Constituent Assembly) is almost unique in that it presents the viewpoint of a member of the only non-Bolshevik group to join Lenin's government after October and is remarkable for the humanity and almost cinematic vivacity of its narrative.

281 Shteinberg, I. N. In the Workshop of the Revolution. London: Victor Gollancz, 1953. xii + 306 pp. The author, Commissar for Justice in the first Soviet government, was a Left-SR and, as such, presents a virtually unique viewpoint in this account of developments from February 1917 to March 1921. See also his earlier recollections of service in the Soviet government from the October Revolution to the treaty of Brest-Litovsk: Steinberg, I. Als Ich Volkskommissar war. Munich: R.

285 Gorky, M. Untimely Thoughts: Essays on Revolution, Culture and the Bolsheviks, 1917±1918 (transl., introd. and annot. by H. Ermolaev). London: Garnstone Press, 1968. xxx + 302 pp. This collection of seventy-seven of Gorky's essays from the pages of Novaia zhizn, written in the period May 1917 to July 1918, represents virtually his entire journalistic activity at that time. The subject matter is diverse, ranging from musings on the Russian national character (regarded by the author as dangerously disposed towards vandalism and violence) to comments on the political affairs of the day, but is chiefly notable for its fierce antipathy to the Bolsheviks, whom the writer regarded as being `poisoned with the filthy venom of power'. For a briefer selection, see Gorky, M. EÂcrits de ReÂvolution (transl. by A. Pierre). Paris: Stock, 1922. viii + 255 pp. See also Gorki, M. `La ReÂvolution russe de mars 1917', Revue bleue No. 59 (1921), pp. 217±226; and Gorki, M. `Le coup d'eÂtat bolchevik', Contrat social Vol. 1 (1957), No. 5, pp. 304±309.

Antipathetic to the Bolsheviks/Soviet Government 282 Breshko-Breshkovskaya, E. K. The Hidden Springs of the Russian Revolution: Personal Memoirs (ed. by L. Hutchinson). Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1931. xxxi + 369 pp. The recollections of the SR doyenne are an important source of information on the development of the revolutionary movement in the late nineteenth century, but include only a sketch of her brief return to Russia of 1917 to 1918. See also Blackwell, A. S. The Little Grandmother of the Russian Revolution: Reminiscences and Letters of Catherine Breshkovsky. Boston: Brown & Co., 1917. 348 pp.; and Good, J. E. and Jones, D. R. Babushka: The Life of the Russian Revolutionary E. K. Breshko-Breshkovkaia. Newtonville, MA: Oriental Research Partners, 1991. x + 253 pp., which includes detailed coverage of her activities from 1917 to 1919 (including her part in the antiBolshevik movement in Siberia and the Urals in 1918). 283 Chernov, V. M. The Great Russian Revolution (transl. and abridg. by P. E. Mosely). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1936. viii + 466 pp. This combination of memoir and interpretive history of 1917 by the leading SR theorist and Minister of Agriculture in the Provisional Government often displays the easy wisdom of hindsight and is laden with self-exculpation. Nevertheless, it ranks among the best personal accounts of the period ± not least because the author, almost uniquely among anti-Bolshevik historians of his generation, understood the importance of social and economic factors in Lenin's victory. The volume is also notable for its view of the coalition ministries of 1917 as being too far to the political right to meet the elemental demands of the masses. See also Chernov, V. M. Mes tribulations en Russie sovieÂtique. Paris: Povolzky, 1921. 85 pp. 284 Chernov-Andreyev, O. Cold Spring in Russia (transl. by M. Carlisle; fwd. by A. Miller). Ann Arbor, MI: Ardis, 1970. x + 283 pp. These memoirs of Viktor Chernov's adopted daughter add considerably to our knowledge of the personality of her stepfather, provide a record of the family's post-October games of hide-and-seek with the Cheka, and present a vivid portrait of the hardships of everyday life in 1917 and after.

The volume, an important commentary upon the chaos and opportunism of the revolutionary period, includes a lengthy `Historical Introduction' by S. Monas and some informative annotation.

292 . 4 General and Miscellaneous Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts nominally associated with the Menshevik-Internationalists, N. N. Himmer ± this volume constitutes an indispensable source for any historian of the revolution. With the possible exception of John Reed's book, Sukhanov's often witty account provides a portrait of the political events and personalities of 1917 unsurpassed for its vividness by the account of any other eyewitness. For a view of Sukhanov as the `unrivalled chronicler and historian of the 1917 revolution', see Getzler, I. `Nikolai Sukhanov's Zapiski o revoliutsii ', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 7 (1994), No. 1, pp. 1±19. For a critique of the work, and a comparison of it with Miliukov's history of the revolution [828], by an eminent Russian socialist, see Vichniak, M. `Deux historians russes de la reÂvolution russe', Le monde slave (1928), Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 27±64.

A partial translation of the self-serving and selfrevealing account, written by the Kadet leader in the early 1940s. This edition covers Miliukov's career from 1905 to July 1917 and is rich in uncompromising (but rarely petty) judgements of people and events. The volume includes an excellent introduction, and a glossary of newspapers, parties and individuals mentioned in the text, as well as additional notes by the editors. 295 Shulgin, V. V. Days of the Revolution: Memoirs of the Right, 1905±1917 (ed., transl. and introd. by B. F. Adams). Gulf Breeze, FL: Academic International Press, 1990. xxii + 251 pp. The pithy and often insightful memoirs of the moderate right-wing, nationalist Duma member, an astute and honest observer and recorder of events (although an inveterate anti-semite). The vast majority of the volume (which was constructed from two accounts originally published in Sofia in 1921 and 1925) is devoted to the years 1915 to February/ March 1917. For a fuller account of the pre-First World War period, see the translation of his Gody (originally published in the USSR in 1979): Shulgin, V. V.

London: Hutchinson & Co., 1936. 287 pp. The memoirs of Viktor Chernov's wife are disappointingly trivial for the most part, but do include some interesting reflections upon her husband's activities while in hiding in Moscow during 1919 and of her own experiences of surveillance and imprisonment by the Cheka. 293 Woytinsky, W. S. Stormy Passage: A Personal History through Two Russian Revolutions to Democracy and Freedom, 1905±1960 (introd. by A. A. Berle). New York: Vanguard Press, 1961. xxii + 550 pp. The author, the noted social reformer, originally a half-hearted Bolshevik but in 1917 a Mensheviksympathizing member of the Executive Committee of the Petrograd Soviet, played a leading part in the revolutions of 1905 and 1917 and served in the Provisional Government as Army Commissar on the Northern Front (in which capacity he witnessed the fall of Riga). This vivid but objective memoir provides a passionately written critique of Bolshevik action in 1917 and after, and contains information on political and military events not be found in any other account.

London: Macmillan, 1919. xii + 526 pp. A now somewhat dated, strongly anti-Bolshevik account of political events from February 1917 to March 1918, written by a noted leader of the Kadets. The volume was published in the self-confessed hope that `the insane and criminal Socialistic experiments of the Maximalists may serve as a stern warning for other peoples', but remains important, nevertheless, as the only substantial work in English (other than Miliukov's) to have been produced by a member of her party.

Marullo. The work was originally published in 1936 and was immediately banned in the Soviet Union.

London: Hurst & Blackett, 1925. vi + 310 pp. Partly in the form of diary extracts (unfortunately blatantly retouched, so as to give the author an almost absurd prescience), this interesting, stridently anti-Bolshevik volume relates the post-revolutionary experiences of the noted senior right-SR (and professor of sociology) from February 1917 until his forced emigration in 1922. The volume is particularly valuable for its insight into the antiBolshevik underground of 1918 (in Moscow and North Russia), for its commentary on the persecution of the intelligentsia by the Bolsheviks, and for its insider's view of Soviet prisons.

Munich: Reinhardt, 1933. 371 pp. An anti-Bolshevik account of the life of a Russian engineer, notable only for the fact that memoirs by men of his occupation are rather rare.

342 Wolkonsky, Prince S. My Reminiscences (transl. A. E. Chamot), 2 vols. London: Hutchinson, 1925. 313 + 276 pp. The autobiography of an aristocratic man of letters, with particular insight into cultural conditions after the revolution. The author was imprisoned by the Bolsheviks but allowed to go into exile in 1921. His wife's memoirs include details of her return to Russia in 1920 to secure his release ± see Wolkonsky, Princess P. The Way of Bitterness: Soviet Russia, 1920 (introd. by John Buchan). London: Methuen, 1931. xi + 212 pp.

337 Tolstoy, Countess Alexandra I Worked for the Soviet. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1935. 254 pp. Tolstoy's daughter's account of her life in the period 1917 to 1930, although ridden with extreme anti-Bolshevik sentiments, is useful as a commentary upon Soviet education in the early years, during which time the novelist's beloved estate at Iasnaia Poliana was used as a school and museum.

The Allied Diplomatic and Military Community in Russia . 350 The author was a member of the imperial court and here recounts her life before, during and after the revolution. Her husband served as an officer in the Volunteer Army and the second half of the volume is devoted to life in South Russia and Crimea during the civil war.

349 Buchanan, Right Hon. Sir G. My Mission to Russia and Other Diplomatic Memories, 2 vols. London: Cassell & Co., 1923. 253 + 280 pp. The recollections of the British ambassador are perhaps the most useful of all the Allied diplomats' accounts. Although Buchanan spoke no Russian and was consequently somewhat distanced from the everchanging mood on the streets of the capital in 1917, the lengthy extracts from his diaries and official correspondence which make up the bulk of these volumes are a key source on the political and diplomatic events of the period prior to his departure from Russia on 8 January 1918.

Wrangel, of her impoverished and perilous existence in `the doomed city of Petrograd' from 1917 to 1920 and of her flight by sea to Finland. See also Wrangel, M. `Getting out of Russia', Atlantic Monthly No. 129 (1922), pp. 697±708.; and Andronikow, Prince W. (ed.) Margarethe von Wrangell. Das Leben einer Frau 1876±1932.

Tenafly, NJ: Hermitage Publishers, 1994. 211 pp. A candid, emotional account of the author's experiences as a child in old Russia, the revolution and civil war, and of her life as a young woman at Harbin in the 1930s. Yakobson became one of the founders of Slavic studies in the United States. 347 Yurlova, M. Cossack Girl. London: Cassell & Co., 1934. vi + 312 pp. The extraordinary life of a female soldier in the Caucasus and Siberia from 1915 to 1919. The sequel to this work (Yurlova, M. Russia, Farewell. London: Michael Joseph, 1936. 288 pp.) deals with the author's life among the inter-war eÂmigreÂ community in the Far East.

350 Buchanan, M. Petrograd: The City of Trouble: 1914±1918. London: Collins, 1918. 262 pp. The memoirs of the British ambassador's daughter, which are stridently anti-Bolshevik in tone and are devoted mostly to the revolutionary period, provide a colourful counterpoint to her father's account. Particularly remarkable is her account of the July Days, witnessed from the window of the embassy. Meriel went on to defend her father's conduct at the time of the revolution in Buchanan, M. Diplomacy and Foreign Courts. London: Hutchinson, 1928. 288 pp. On the pre-war period of her residence see Buchanan, M. Recollections of Imperial Russia.

London: John Murray, 1932. 312 pp. Buchanan, M. Ambassador's Daughter. London: Cassell, 1958. 194 pp., concentrates on the social side of the embassy's life and adds little of substance to her earlier accounts of her experiences in Russia, but if anything is even more hostile to the Bolsheviks. Buchanan, M. Queen Victoria's Relations. London: Cassell, 1954. 243 pp., includes chapters on Grand Duke Cyril and Grand Duchess Olga. Buchanan, M. Victorian Gallery.

355 Knox, Major-General Sir A. With the Russian Army, 1914±1917: Being Chiefly Extracts from the Diary of a Military AttacheÂ, 2 vols. London: Hutchinson, 1921. 780 pp. Almost one-third of this key memoir, which includes long extracts from the author's diary, is devoted to Knox's experiences as Britain's leading military figure in Russia during 1917. The volume provides a mine of useful information on matters political and military, although its ultra-conservative and highly opinionated author displays scant comprehension of the difficulties confronting the Provisional Government, the concerns of the Russian people or the appeal of Bolshevism. 356 Preston, T. Before the Curtain. London: John Murray, 1950. 306 pp. Includes interesting commentary upon the author's service as a diplomat in Russia in the period 1905 to 1919, including his first-hand observations of events at Ekaterinburg in the summer of 1918, when he was serving as British consul in the town of the Romanovs' imprisonment.

351 `An Englishman' The Russian Diary of an Englishman: Petrograd, 1915±1917. London: Heinemann, 1918. 228 pp. From internal evidence it is clear that the anonymous author of this volume (which is partially in diary form and partially in the form of letters addressed to the Pembrokes) was in some way connected with the British Embassy in the Russian capital. Obolensky [326] names him as the diplomatic courier Albert Stopford, a member of the Irish nobility. The work covers the period down to its author's departure from Russia in September 1917 and includes details of his close contacts with court circles and of the latter's reactions to the influence and murder of Rasputin.

357 Waters, Brig.-Gen. W. H.-H. `Secret and Confidential': The Experiences of a Military AttacheÂ. London: John Murray, 1926. xiii + 388 pp. This volume is concerned primarily with the author's experiences in Russia in the years 1890 to 1917. He was at various times a military attacheÂ and British representative with the Russian army. The Americans

359 Crosley, P. S. Intimate Letters from Petrograd. New York: Dutton, 1920. 305 pp. This account of life in Petrograd in the period April 1917 to April 1918, by the wife of the United States embassy's naval attacheÂ, includes an interesting appendix, presenting samples of German propaganda and notes from Soviet conferences.

354 Kemp, P. ` ``A Good Bit of Work'': The Baltic Diary of Commander Francis Goodhart DSO RN', Imperial War Museum Review No. 9 (1994), pp. 18±30. These edited extracts from a British submariner's diary from August 1915 until his return to England in January 1917 contain details of visits to Moscow and the Galician Front, but barely hint at the upheaval to come.

The Allied Diplomatic and Military Community in Russia . 366 Russia from April 1916 to November 1918. Francis appears not to have been in his element when confronted by the complexities of the Russian revolutionary scene and much of what he recorded of events in Petrograd was painfully superficial, uninformed and misguided. More useful and unusual are the later sections of the work, dealing with the Allied embassies' sojourn at Vologda and the intervention in North Russia. See also Cockfield, J. H. (ed.) Dollars and Diplomacy: Ambassador David Rowland Francis and the Fall of Tsarism, 1916±1917. Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 1981. x + 149 pp., a collection of eighty-one of Francis's letters to colleagues, friends and family in the United States dating from his arrival in Russia in April 1916 to March 1917.

S. `A Missouri Democrat in Revolutionary Russia: Ambassador David R. Francis and the American Confrontation with Russian Radicalism, 1917', Gateway Heritage Vol. 12 (1992), No. 3, pp. 22±43. Francis's experiences in Russia (as well as those of his colleagues T. Butler Wright, Madison Summers, De Witt Poole and Felix Cole) are examined in Allison, W. American Diplomats in Russia: Case Studies in Orphan Diplomacy, 1916± 1919. Westport, CT: Praeger, 1997. 190 + 208 pp. The author notes that all were, in a variety of ways, unsuited for and unprepared for the tasks they faced in Russia.

362 Hard, W. Raymond Robins's Own Story. New York: Harper & Bros., 1920. 247 pp. The anecdotal and not entirely reliable memoirs of Colonel Robins, head of a Red Cross Mission to Russia from July 1917 to June 1918, as related to a talented American journalist in 1919 (and first serialized in the Chicago Daily News). Robins advocated and actively sought Allied accommodation with the Bolsheviks and consequently the work is unsubtly condemnatory of the Allied intervention.

Kent, OH: Kent State University Press, 1998. xxxiv + 384 pp. A skilfully edited, chronological collection of the diaries, letters and official communications from Petrograd of the American Military AttacheÂ and Chief of the American Military Mission in Russia, covering the period June 1917 to January 1918, together with some materials written after his departure from Russia and before his arrival. Judson, one of the most astute of Western eyewitnesses of the revolution, was particularly interested in the battleworthiness of the Russian Army and was a key player in the foundation of Soviet±American relations.

371 Legras, J. MeÂmoires de Russie. Paris: Payot, 1921. 449 pp. These memoirs of a senior officer with the French military mission consist largely of his embittered observations upon the break-up of the Russian Army in 1917. 372 Niessel, GeÂneÂral A. Le Triomphe des bolcheÂviks et la pais de Brest±Litovsk: Souvenirs, 1917±1918. Paris: Librairie Plon, 1940. x + 381 pp. The disappointingly uninformative memoirs of the head of the French military mission in Petrograd and Ukraine. See also Niessel, GeÂneÂral `LeÂnine et l'aveÁnement de Bolchevisme en Russie', Revue de Paris Vol. 32 (1925), No. 23. 373 Noulens, J. Mon ambassade en Russie sovieÂtique, 1917±1919, 2 vols. Paris: Librairie Plon, 1933. xxvi + 259 + 300 pp. The author of this volume, French ambassador to Russia throughout the first year and a half of Bolshevik rule, was a professional politician, originally appointed as a man likely to be more acceptable to the Provisional Government than his predecessor, Maurice PaleÂologue. However, unfortunately, Noulens knew and understood little of Russian conditions. The work is not always factually accurate and is often overtly biased, being strongly defensive of the Allied intervention, particularly of the role of France.

The French 368 Chambe, GeÂneÂral R. Route sans horizon. Les eaux sanglantes du beau Danube bleu. Paris: Plon, 1981. 315 pp. The second and third parts of this unusual and interesting memoir recount the author's experiences of events on the Roumanian Front in 1916 and 1917 and the impact of the revolutions of 1917 in that region. 369 ChaumieÂ, E.

374 PaleÂologue, M. An Ambassador's Memoirs (transl. by F. A. Holt), 3 vols. London: Hutchinson & Co., 1923±1925. 350 + 320 + 346 pp. The elegant memoirs, in retouched diary form, of the French ambassador to the Russian court from July 1914 to May 1917. Although the author is occasionally misguided in his interpretation of revolutionary events, as a consequence of his close contacts in the Duma and among court circles these volumes are informative on a wide range of domestic, diplomatic and political affairs and the work is widely regarded as one of the best sources on the decline of imperial Russia, the character of Nicholas II and the influence of Rasputin upon the Romanovs. With the outbreak of the revolution, PaleÂologue becomes less informative, expressing views openly biased towards the Kadets. See also his historical account of the period: PaleÂologue, G. M. L'EÂcroulement du tsarisme. Paris: Flammarion, 1939. 160 pp.; and his portrait of the Empress, PaleÂologue, M.

From May 1916 to August 1917, General Maurice Janin, one of France's leading authorities on the Russian Army, was head of the French Military Mission attached to the stavka at Mogilev. In the first section of this series he presents his impressions of the Imperial family, members of the court and the Russian military leadership; the subsequent sections take the form of edited extracts from his diary for the period November 1916 to September 1917, in which he records details of Russian military affairs, Allied relations with the Russian military and Allied 44

Appended are a number of documents. On Thomas see Schaper, B. W. Albert Thomas: Trente ans de reÂformisme social.

London: Michael Joseph, 1969. 319 pp. An entertaining personal record, in diary form, of the experiences and opinions of the author, a junior official at the French embassy, during the period March 1917 to November 1918. De Robien was unashamedly aristocratic in his tastes, disdainful of all things Russian, and particularly scathing in his (often ill-informed) assessments of the Kadets and the moderate socialists.

Lausanne: Imprimerie centrale et populaire, 1918. vii + 214 pp. The author of this volume spent seven years in Russia before leaving in January 1918. Herein he provides a somewhat simplistic account of political events from February to November 1917, chiefly from the point of view of Moscow, where he was based. The most interesting section of the work is a first-hand account of the Bolshevik capture of Moscow in October to November 1917.

London: Hurst & Blackett, 1942. xii + 17±287 pp. A simplistic and lurid account which is also misleadingly entitled (since only nine pages deal with the period prior to 1917, while the remainder cover the thirteen years after that date). The volume is of very limited use to the historian and is really only notable for the author of its forward. 403 Jones, S.

Western Journalists and Correspondents . 425 WESTERN JOURNALISTS AND CORRESPONDENTS

The important memoirs of the Manchester Guardian's Russian correspondent of 1917 to 1918, whose sympathy to the Soviet reÂgime allowed him to travel extensively in European Russia and the Caucasus and granted him access to many of the Bolshevik leaders. Although uneven and overly didactic, this volume remains the most valuable eyewitness account of an extended period (from 1917 to 1919) to have been written by a non-Russian. Particularly sober and well reasoned are the portions of the work based upon his newspaper despatches. See also Philips Price, M. The Origin and Growth of the Russian Soviets. n.p.: n.p., 1919. 24 pp. For Price's later reflections on the period see also Philips Price, M. My Three Revolutions. London: George Allen & Unwin, 1969. 310 pp.; and Philips Price, M. `Before and during the Revolution', Survey No. 68 (1968), pp. 122±125.

The British 419 Farbman, M. S. Bolshevism in Retreat. London: Collins, 1923. x + 312 pp. The author of this volume, a left-wing journalist who was Moscow correspondent of the Manchester Guardian from 1920 to 1922, provides an interesting and sophisticated commentary on the introduction of NEP, which he perceived as marking the beginning of the end of Bolshevism in Russia. See also Farbman, M. S. Russia and the Struggle for Peace. London: G. Allen & Unwin, 1918. 188 pp.; and Farbman, M. S. The Russian Revolution and the War. London: Headley Bros., 1917. 46 pp. 420 Goode, W. T. Bolshevism at Work. London: Allen & Unwin, 1920. 142 pp. The author's visit to Russia on behalf of the Manchester Guardian in July to August 1919, forms the basis of this sympathetic, even laudatory, portrait of the Soviet reÂgime. Professor Goode's work includes details of his interviews with Lenin, Chicherin and other Bolshevik leaders and is particularly interesting regarding economic conditions. See also Goode, W. T. Is Intervention in Russia a Myth? An Excursion into Recent Political History. London: Williams & Norgate, 1931. 126 pp.

424 Ransome, A. Six Weeks in Red Russia in 1919. London: Allen & Unwin, 1919. 150 pp. The insightful account, in diary form, of a visit to Petrograd and Moscow of February to March 1919, by the famous author and Daily News correspondent who was not unsympathetic to the Bolsheviks. The work includes interviews with Lenin and other Bolshevik and non-Bolshevik political leaders (including Martov and V. K. Vol'skii). Ransome's subsequent visit to Russia during the winter and spring of 1919 to 1920 was the basis for a second work: Ransome, A. The Truth about Russia. London: Allen & Unwin, 1921. 152 pp. See also Ransome, A. Crisis in Russia. London: Allen & Unwin, 1920. 152 pp. For some further details of Ransome's life in Petrograd during 1917, see Ransome, A.

New York: Century, 1918. 321 pp. An account of a journey across Siberia to Petrograd in the period December 1916 to September 1917 by a correspondent of Leslie's Weekly.

This survey of the activities of the well connected Russian eÂmigreÂ (who in 1917 combined the roles of Petrograd correspondent of the Manchester Guardian and private secretary to Kerensky) includes interesting extracts from his private papers relating to Boris Savinkov and the Kornilov affair and his first-hand account of developments in the Winter Palace during the October Revolution. For a guide to Soskice's papers, which are held at the House of Lords Record Office in London, see Slatter, J. `The Soskice Papers: A Guide', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 8 (1982), pp. 49±68. 423 Philips Price, M.

426 . 4 General and Miscellaneous Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts An impersonal, conventional and generalized account of events down to the end of 1917 by the Daily Telegraph correspondent. The work is based upon articles which originally appeared in the Fortnightly Review ± see, for example, Wilcox, E. H. `Lenin and Bolshevism', Fortnightly Review No. 103 (1918), pp. 371±383; and Wilcox, E.

and some particularly useful observations on the summer offensive, but is marred by the author's virtual hero-worshipping of Kornilov and by his intemperate tirades against `the pseudo-Jews of the Soviet'. The Americans 428 Beatty, B. The Red Heart of Russia. New York: Century & Co., 1918. 480 pp. This illustrated work is irritatingly diffuse, although its vignettes rank among the most vivid of contemporary accounts of the revolution in Petrograd. Its author, the correspondent of the San Francisco Bulletin, was very much in sympathy with the revolution and travelled extensively in European Russia and Siberia. See also Beatty, B. `The Fall of the Winter Palace', The Century Magazine Vol. 96 (August 1918), pp. 523±532; and Beatty, B. `All Power to the Soviets', Asia Vol. 18 (1918), No. 9.

426 Williams, H. W. The Spirit of the Russian Revolution. London: Russian Liberation Committee, 1919. iv + 29 pp. Williams's lucid and informative Petrograd dispatches for the Daily Chronicle (1917 to March 1918) were never published in book form, nor were his dispatches from Denikin's camp (of May 1919 to January 1920) for the Daily Chronicle and the Times (although the former were extensively utilized in Pitcher [247]), and the book on the revolution he began upon his return to England in 1918 was never completed. Thus, this anti-Bolshevik pamphlet remains his sole reflection upon the revolution ± although he was closely involved in the writing of his wife's account [297]. See also: Williams, H. W. `The Nationalities of Russia', in J. D. Duff (ed.) Russian Realities and Problems. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1917, pp. 123±152; and Williams, H. `Petrograd', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 2 (1923±1924), pp. 14±35.

Sketches and memories of the revolution, very pro-Bolshevik in tone and content, by an independent American journalist, socialist and Congregational minister of Welsh extraction, who travelled extensively in European Russia and Siberia from June 1917 to September 1918 as correspondent of the New York Evening Post and who knew many Bolshevik leaders. The account is impressionistic, rambling and often trivial, but is partially redeemed by the inclusion in the volume of numerous rare documents, proclamations and reproductions of posters. A later edition, published under the same title in Moscow in 1967, included two later essays on Lenin and a new introduction by the author. See also: Williams, A.

McBride found many critics of the Bolshevik reÂgime in Soviet Russia, but notes that they `insisted that whatever changes are to be made in the government must be made without foreign interference' ± a message reiterated by the author on every page of this volume. 434 Poole, E.

Chicago: Quadrangle Books, 1969. 346 pp. This reworking of the early sections of Williams's earlier volume [436] retains its tendentious, propagandistic quality, but comprises a more ambitious and sophisticated attempt to interpret the Russian revolution for the Western public, drawing upon newspaper materials, published documents and memoirs as well as the author's own diaries, correspondence and recollections. The work includes extended commentary upon John Reed and other radical `Russian-Americans'.

Calcutta: Renaissance Publishers, 1949. 631 pp. The author was a member of the Comintern's Executive Committee in its early years, but broke with the movement in the early 1930s.

The second part discusses Russian developments in general. While the latter has nothing to recommend it to the student of the revolution, the former offers some interesting observations and a number of remarkable photographs.

London: Allen & Unwin, 1918. 280 pp. The impressions and account of the author's visit to Russia of 18 May to 25 June 1917, taking in Petrograd, Moscow and the front.

A Prisoner of the Reds: The Story of a British Officer Captured in Siberia. London: John Murray, 1921. 346 pp. The memoirs of a British Intelligence Officer captured at Krasnoiarsk in January 1920. Disappointingly, the author says nothing of his service as a writer of propaganda for the Kolchak reÂgime, but the work is still of interest for its account of conditions of life in Siberia and Moscow in early 1920.

One Hundred Red Days, 25 Nov. 1917 to 4 March 1918: A Personal Chronicle of the Bolshevik Revolution. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1931. xiii + 502 pp. The memoirs, well written but unremittingly hostile to the Soviet reÂgime, of the author's trip to Russia on behalf of the United States Committee on Public Information (Conpub). Sisson reproduces information supplied to him by several well-informed observers, but the work is chiefly notable for its inclusion of a facsimile of the notorious pamphlet issued by Conpub in 1918, The German±Bolshevik Conspiracy (`The Sisson Documents'), which, although long since exposed as a forgery, claimed to have proved that the Bolsheviks were the paid agents of the German General Staff.

Lausanne: ReÂmeÂzov, 1919. 61 pp. Compiled in November 1918, this is an (hostile) eyewitness account, insofar as Weiss was in Russia at the time, but it relates no intimate first-hand knowledge of any events of particular or concrete significance.

511 Thompson, D. C. Donald Thompson in Russia. New York: The Century Co., 1918. xix + iv + 353 pp. A record of an American photographer's visits of 1915 and 1917, including some remarkable pictures of the February Revolution in Petrograd. See also Thompson, D. C. From Czar to Kaiser: `The Betrayal of Russia'. Garden City, NY: Page, 1918. 199 pp., in which the author, once again with copious photographic illustration, records his impressions of the development of the revolution in the period March to September 1917 and of his escape from Russia via Siberia.

515 Wells, H. G. Russia in the Shadows. London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1921. 154 pp. The coloured (and colourful) impressions of Soviet Russia gleaned during the esteemed writer's visits to Moscow and Petrograd in 1920, as a guest of Maxim Gorky. The work includes some very interesting and probing interviews with Lenin, Gorky and other notables of post-revolutionary Russia, with whom Wells felt some personal and political sympathy. Wells bemoaned the disorganization of civilized life in Russia, but ascribed this not to the Bolsheviks but to the collapse of the bankrupt tsarist system. For a critique of the image of Lenin advanced in this work, see Trotzky, L. `H. G. Wells and Lenin: The Philistine Discourseth on the Revolutionary', Labour Monthly Vol. 6 (July 1924), pp. 411±420.

512 Varney, J. Sketches of Soviet Russia: Whole Cloth and Patches. New York: Nicholas L. Brown, 1920. 288 pp. That this semi-fictionalized collection of `excerpts from a literary diary', based upon the author's experiences in Russia from April 1918 to March 1919, has `no central thread', Varney ascribes to `the incompleteness and inchoateness of the phenomena observed'. That `inchoateness' certainly met its true match in the author, and only scholars pathologically determined to leave no stone unturned should turn to this volume for information. 513 Walsh, E. A. The Fall of the Russian Empire: The Story of the Last of the Romanovs and the Coming of the Bolsheviki. Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1929. 357 pp. The author was an American Jesuit scholar who was in Russia from 1921 to 1923 and who was subsequently in contact with many prominent eÂmigreÂs.

New York: Brooklyn Daily Eagle, 1928. 230 pp. The journal of an American doctor, an associate of Colonel William Boyce Thompson, who travelled from Petrograd to Odessa in the period 26 July to 13 October 1917, as an officer of the American Red Cross.

517 Abramovitch, R. R. The Soviet Revolution, 1917±1939 (introd. by S. Hook). New York: International Universities Press, 1962. 473 pp. An excellent translation of a very important survey by a leading Menshevik and founder member of the Petrograd Soviet. The work includes some detailed first-hand accounts of key episodes (for example, the Vikzhel negotiations of October to November 1917), but is curiously silent on the attitude of the Mensheviks toward the Soviet government during the years of the civil war. 518 Alexander, P. 1917: Russia in Revolution. London: Sidgwick & Jackson, 1992. 396 pp. An unremarkable survey aimed at a general readership. 519 Altrichter, H. Russland 1917. Ein Land auf der Suche nach sich Selbst. Paderborn: Ferdinand SchoÈningh, 1997. 605 pp. Following a 150-page introductory chronicle, charting events from late 1916 to the dissolution of the Constituent Assembly, the author of this very thorough, balanced, well-organized and scrupulously accurate descriptive study presents a series of parallel accounts, covering the experiences of workers, soldiers, peasants and the urban middle classes and revolutionary events in the non-Russian regions of the empire, together with considerations of theoretical approaches to revolution, the role of social history and notions of class and nationality. The volume includes numerous statistical tables, photographs and maps and a good bibliography.

521 Arnot, R. P. The Russian Revolution: A Narrative and a Guide for Reading. London: Labour Research Department, 1922. 35 pp. A brief sketch from the communist point of view. Even at the time of publication the author's claim to have compiled `the fullest select bibliography [on the Russian revolution] so far published in this country' was debatable ± the bibliography is, in fact, rather sparse. 522 Bach, L. Histoire de la reÂvolution russe. Paris: Librairie Valois, 1930. 362 pp. Although now badly dated, this volume represents one of the earliest attempts to produce a serious, dispassionate account of the events of 1917, providing detailed coverage of the foreign, domestic and military policies of the Provisional Government and an analysis of the seizure and consolidation of power by the Bolsheviks down to the dissolution of the Constituent Assembly in January 1918.

520 Anweiler, O. The Soviets: The Russian Workers, Peasants and Soldiers Councils, 1905±1921 (transl. by R. Hein). New York: Pantheon Books, 1974. 337 pp. An excellent translation of a landmark work originally published in German in 1958. The book traces the evolution of the Soviets and sensitively explains the convulsions in Menshevik and Bolshevik thought regarding them. Approximately half the volume is devoted to the revival of the Soviets in

For the author, the driving force of Soviet history in this period was class struggle: he finds that by 1923 the bourgeoisie had triumphed over the Russian proletariat and that, rather than building socialism, the Soviet Union was on the point of developing into `a capitalist state of a particular type'. On the author see Miliband, R. `Bettelheim and the Soviet Experience', New Left Review No. 91 (1975), pp. 57±66.

529 Carmichael, J. A Short History of the Russian Revolution. London: Sphere Books, 1964. 253 pp. Heavily reliant upon Sukhanov's memoirs [290], of which the author was a translator, and a limited number of other standard sources, this volume can now be regarded as a useful and readable summation of Western thinking on the revolution prior to the era of its publication. 530 Carr, E. H. A History of Soviet Russia: The Bolshevik Revolution, 1917±1923, 3 vols. London: Macmillan, 1950±1978. x + 430 + vii + 400 + xx + 596 pp. Although perhaps the weakest section of the monumental series of works on the history of Soviet Russia from 1917 to the early 1930s of which it forms a part, this trilogy remains the best (and certainly the most detailed) general history from the purely institutional point of view: Volume I concerns the constitution of the Soviet state; Volume II, the economy; and Volume III, foreign policy. The author was clearly sympathetic to the Bolsheviks but, in striving for detachment and objectivity, he somehow lost sight of the passion and drama of the period and offers no thoughts or analysis of the general course of events. Moreover, the volumes contain virtually no coverage of the revolution or the civil war per se. For assessments of this work, see Cole, G. D.

Ltd, 1921. 632 pp. An ambitious general survey which seeks to chart the implications of the post-war settlements and which focuses in particular on issues raised by the Russian revolution and the collapse of the Russian Empire with regard to land settlement, trade, border disputes, etc. Its rather scurrilous political commentary notwithstanding, the volume offers a wealth of data and a large number of highly interesting and useful maps. 526 Bracops, J.

The articles are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography. 528 Brown, D. Doomsday 1917: The Destruction of Russia's Ruling Class. London: Sidgwick & Jackson Ltd., 1975. 204 pp. The author describes, mainly by means of lengthy quotations from a range of memoir literature, the destructive impact of the post-February events upon the old Russian `ruling class' (which he implicitly defines as including members of the aristocracy, the higher bureaucracy, the landowning nobility and the Church).

533 Chamberlin, W. H. The Russian Revolution, 2 vols. New York: Macmillan, 1935. ix + 511 + 566 pp. Based partly upon research conducted by the author in the USSR during his time as the Russian correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor from 1922 to 1933, this heavily factual but very readable work draws upon a wide range of now rare secondary materials and, despite its vintage, is still widely regarded as the best general survey of the period and as a model of objectivity. Both volumes (the first relating to the years 1917 to 1918 and the second to the civil war) contain valuable documentary appendices.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1968. pp. 403±432. A narrative account of the events of 1917 which is archly critical of Kerensky and which focuses upon the role of the major socialist parties. The author was a veteran of both the communist and the Trotskyist movements who maintained his allegiance to Marxism. 538 Figes, O. A People's Tragedy: The Russian Revolution, 1891±1924. London: Jonathan Cape, 1996. xx + 923 pp. Although limited in its coverage to events in the Great Russian heartland, this monumental work was lauded by some critics as ranking among the best (and certainly the most readable) surveys of the revolution to appear since the collapse of the Soviet Union ± albeit, as historians noted, one which adds little by way of new interpretations or materials to existing histories and one which contains an unsatisfactory number of contradictions and errors. Utilizing Russian and Western archives, the author constructs a sweeping narrative and an argument that `Russia's democratic failure was deeply rooted in its popular culture and social history', that it was a revolution of the masses, especially of the peasants, who had, in their customary law, a `moral order or ideology to substitute for the tsarist state', and who supported the Bolsheviks in the struggles of 1917 to

The work is enlivened by a wealth of anecdotes, the inclusion of many magnificent and hitherto unpublished photographs and the literarily successful (if historically dubious) device of weaving into the narrative the careers of five men overtaken by the revolutionary `tragedy': Prince L'vov, General Brusilov, Maxim Gorky, Dmitri Osikin (a pro-Bolshevik peasant soldier) and Sergei Semenov (a Tolstoyan activist).

Paris: Armand Colin, 1933. 392 pp. An important early scholarly study of the events from the fall of tsardom to the beginnings of the NEP, but with a very heavy emphasis on the events of 1917. The author was French consul-general in Moscow during the revolution and was implicated in the so-called `Lockhart Plot'.

539 Fitzpatrick, S. The Russian Revolution, 1917± 1932. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1982. vi + 181 pp. A stimulating interpretative essay, arguing that the history of Soviet Russia from 1917 to 1932 exhibits a `single process', as the end of the civil war had left Bolshevik revolutionary aspirations unsatisfied, as NEP was nothing more than a temporary retreat, and as the First Five-Year Plan represents not a revolution betrayed but a revolution (belatedly) fulfilled.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. xxii + 434 pp. A very important specialist collection, containing original contributions from nineteen leading Western experts, relating to issues general, specific and historiographical. This volume ranks alongside that edited by Richard Pipes in 1968 [569], as representing the state of Western scholarship on the revolution as of the date of its publication. The articles are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

552 Kirby, L. P. The Russian Revolution. Boston: Meador Publishing Co., 1940. 678 pp. Thoroughly unsatisfactory, even for its time, as a survey of 1917, but notable as perhaps the most crude example of Western views of the October Revolution as a Bolshevik `conspiracy'.

558 Marples, D. R. Lenin's Revolution, 1917±1921. London: Longman, 2000. xv + 156 pp. This general survey, which is aimed at the undergraduate market, focuses on the role of Lenin in the revolution and in the making of the Soviet state, but it is poorly written and contains numerous factual errors. Appended are a chronology, a glossary, a `who's who' and a bibliography, but the volume is chiefly of note for its maps which are littered (to hilarious effect) with errors in the spelling and location of place names.

553 Kochan, L. Russia in Revolution, 1890±1918. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1966. xiii + 352 pp. More of an analysis of the factors that led to revolution than a coherent history of the period, in this scholarly but enduringly popular work the author concentrates upon the industrialization policies of Witte and their consequences, concluding that the central cause of the revolution was `the disharmony between the resources of the state and its aspirations'.

559 Mavor, J. The Russian Revolution. London: Allen & Unwin, 1928. 470 pp. In its day this Canadian economic historian's inadequately sourced and over-ambitious attempt to survey political and economic events in Russia from 1914 to the early 1920s was, for all its flaws, a pioneering effort. It has, however, dated very badly.

554 Kowalski, R. The Russian Revolution, 1917± 1921. London: Routledge, 1997. xvi + 269 pp. A commendable and readable survey, aimed at the undergraduate market, which begins with a survey of events before moving on to a thematic treatment of `The Issues of the Revolution' (agriculture and the peasants, industry and workers, national minorities, the war and the army) and an examination of Bolshevik and non-Bolshevik oppositions to the Soviet government. Incorporated into the text are lengthy extracts from many documents (some of them previously unpublished and some made available for the first time in English).

Hinsdale, IL: Dryden Press, 1974. viii + 205 pp. Collected in the volume, aimed at the undergraduate market, are extracts from eighteen key works on the revolution, selected by the editor as offering varying views of three issues: `Were the end of tsarism and the March heirs' accession inevitable?'; `Were the March heirs' failure and the Bolshevik triumph inevitable?'; and `What kind of revolution?' 561 Mintz, I.

London: Collins, 1958. 272 pp. The author of this popular history, a talented writer (although one with no claim to real expertise on Russia), included in the volume a lot of material supplied by a group of investigators headed by S. T. Possony. The latter had been financed (partly by Life magazine) to research diplomatic and other records to provide proof that `the Germans played an important role in bringing Lenin and the Bolsheviks to power'.

New York: Simon and Schuster, 1986. 637 pp. As in its prequel [999], the prolific American author makes use of an astonishingly broad array of materials (on this occasion, many of them unpublished) to construct a gripping and original narrative which serves both as a serious piece of historical research work and a masterful popular survey.

569 Pipes, R. (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. x + 365 pp. The product of a symposium marking the fiftieth anniversary of the revolution, this landmark publication, enduringly influential and provocative, includes contributions from most of the leading Western experts in the field at the time. Each paper is followed by a detailed commentary and/or a summary of the group discussion. Virtually all of the contributors viewed the Bolshevik revolution as neither necessary nor desirable. The papers are listed and annotated separately in this volume.

570 Pipes, R. The Russian Revolution, 1899±1919. New York: Harvill, 1990. xxiv + 944 pp. A monumental work of scholarship and erudition, drawing upon a lifetime's research and a huge array of source materials, this volume (together with its successor [571]) provides the only serious claim to a comprehensive history of the revolution since Chamberlin's [533]. Many, however, found its unremittingly hostile attitude to Lenin and all things Bolshevik ± indeed, to almost all things Russian ± to be unpalatable, and critics noted its virtual ignoring of the canon of social historians. The bulk of the work is concerned with the period February 1917 to summer 1918. For lengthy critiques of this work, see Getzler, I. `Richard Pipes's ``Revisionist'' History of the Russian Revolution', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 70 (1992), No. 1, pp. 111±126; Kenez, P. `The Prosecution of Soviet History: A Critique of Richard Pipes' The Russian Revolution', Russian Review Vol. 50 (1991), No. 3, pp. 345±351; and Smith, S. `Richard Pipes' The Russian Revolution', Social History Vol. 17 (1992), pp. 329±336.

(ed. and introd.) Articles on Russian and Soviet History, Vol. 5: The Russian Revolution. New York: Garland Publishing Inc., 1992. xii + 320 pp. An extremely useful collection of fifteen previously published (but not always easy to obtain) articles and chapters, a number of which rank as classics in the Western literature on the revolution. Among the contents are: Billington [82]; Mendel [1007]; Rosenberg [125]; Suny [133]; Daniels [1487] (`The Bolshevik Gamble'); von Laue [915] (`Westernization'); Laqueur [107], pp. 32±58 (`1917'); and Pipes [570], pp. 394±399. 567 Pearson, R. Revolution in Russia. Dublin: Gill & Macmillan, 1973. 58 pp. A brief survey of the origins and course of the revolution from the late nineteenth century to the early 1920s and a discussion of its historical significance. This pamphlet is aimed at an undergraduate readership. 568 Piontkovsky, S. A. Histoire populaire de la reÂvolution d'octobre. Paris: n.p., 1927. 307 pp. This translation is a rarity not only in that it presents a book-length attempt by a leading Soviet scholar of the 1920s to recount and assess the events of 1917, but also in that it is remarkably accurate and fairly uncontentious in its analysis (granting Trotsky, for example, full credit for his leading role in October).

571 Pipes, R. Russia under the Bolshevik Regime, 1919±1924. London: Harvill, 1994. xviii + 587 pp. For this volume the author was able to utilize the Central Party Archive in Moscow, although he later admitted that he found no materials there which altered his fundamental view of the revolution. The first three chapters offer an excellent survey of the civil war; the remainder, arranged thematically, offer alternatively infuriating and 66

The concluding chapter ± which appeared earlier as Pipes, R. `Did the Russian Revolution Have to Happen?', American Scholar Vol. 63 (1994), No. 2, pp. 215±238 ± is essential reading for all students of the period. In it Pipes contends that `the tragic and sordid history of the Russian Revolution . . . teaches that political authority must never be used for ideological ends'. For a critique of the work see Kenez, P. `The Prosecution of Soviet History, Volume 2', Russian Review Vol. 54 (1995), No. 2, pp. 265±269.

La ReÂvolution russe ± ses origines ± ses reÂsultats, Vol. II: Le Parti Bolsheviste. Paris: Librairie Delagrave, 1931. 400 pp. At the time of its publication this work ranked among the most detailed and insightful treatments of the revolution in any language, albeit one overtly hostile to the Soviet reÂgime. Volume I analyses the political, economic, and social origins of the Soviet system as one consequence of the Westernizing tendencies in Russian history. Volume II seeks to explain the origins and nature of the Bolshevik party by reference to other organizations ± from the Jacobins to the Jesuits ± for whom ends justified means, as well as dwelling upon the militaristic aspects of Marxism and the influence of Clauswitz upon Lenin.

577 The Russian Revolution: Essays, Photographs and Excerpts from Classic Works about the Men and Ideas Which Shaped the Revolution (A CBS Legacy Book). New York: Macmillan, 1967. 248 pp. Contains brief articles on the revolutionary tradition by five eminent scholars ± Adam Ulam on the Populists, Leonard Schapiro on the Mensheviks, Walter Laqueur on Trotsky, Joel Carmichael on Kerensky and Bertram Wolfe on Lenin ± followed by photographs and excerpts from contemporary works on Russia. Of more interest than the book is the accompanying long-playing record bearing the voices of Lenin, Mark Vishniak, Solomon Schwarz, Prince Wolkonsky and other participants in the events of 1917.

573 Pipes, R. Three Whys of the Russian Revolution. London: Pimlico, 1998. 84 pp. Included in this volume, aimed at the general reader, are three brief but provocative essays addressing the questions `Why Did Tsarism Fall?', `Why Did the Bolsheviks Triumph?', and `Why Did Stalin Succeed Lenin?' The pieces were originally delivered as lectures to the Institute for Human Sciences in Vienna in 1995. 574 Rabinowitch, A., Rabinowitch, J. and Kristof, L. K. D.

575 Read, C. From Tsar to Soviets: The Russian People and Their Revolution, 1917±1921. London: University College London Press, 1996. vi + 330 pp. A solid and readable textbook, based upon the successful synthesis of a large amount of Western and Soviet materials, which is evenly divided in its coverage between 1917 and the years of the civil war. In the tradition of much recent Western `revisionist' writing on the period, the author concentrates in particular on the view `from below' ± i.e., on the popular movement ± and states that his main aim was `to restore the autonomous revolutionary activity of the ordinary people' to the centre stage.

The main title of the work is borrowed from Blok's poem, The Twelve.

581 Service, R. The Russian Revolution, 1900±1927. London: Macmillan, 1986. x + 101 pp. In this superb work of synthesis, aimed at the undergraduate market, the author provides an ideal introduction to the history of the Russian revolution, incorporating into his well-organized narrative much of the revisionist work on the period. 582 Service, R. (ed.) Society and Politics in the Russian Revolution. London: Macmillan, 1992. vii + 199 pp. A seminal product of the new thinking on the Russian revolution, this worthwhile volume largely eschews the details of the political struggle in 1917. Instead it presents chapters analysing a variety of broad social groups (peasants, urban middle classes, industrial workers, soldiers and sailors, etc.), authored by prominent British specialists in each field, each focusing on the relationship between politics, social aspirations and economics. The articles are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

580 Serge, V. Year One of the Russian Revolution (transl., introd., and ed. by P. Sedgwick). London: Allen Lane, 1972. 436 pp. This magnificent, partisan account of the period October 1917 to January 1919 by the disgraced Left Oppositionist and one-time anarchist, originally published in French in 1930, seeks to explain the degradation of the `Commune State' of 1917 into the party dictatorship of 1919 which the author was shocked to find upon returning to Russia at that point, as being a consequence of the military depredation and economic ruin which wrought havoc in an already enfeebled Russia, rather than as being inherent in Bolshevik centralism and eÂlitism. In fact, the work can be read as a defence of the War Communism measures. The volume includes extensive annotation by the editor. For Serge's thoughts on the events of 1917 see also Serge, V. `La ReÂvolution Russe: FeÂvrier±Octobre 1917', in Histoire des reÂvolutions de Cromwell aÁ Franco. Paris: EÂditions Pierre TisneÂ, 1938.

D. History of the Russian Revolution, 3 vols (transl. by M. Eastman). London: Victor Gollancz, 1934. 1,295 pp. Not the `scientific history' claimed by its translator, but undoubtedly a literary masterpiece, Trotsky's lucid history of the period February to October 1917 has enjoyed an exalted reputation in the West, despite its often questionable partisan assertions (for example, with regard to the Bolsheviks' inspiration and leadership of the February Revolution). Unfortunately, the author neglected to include reference notes or a bibliography of the sources he had consulted.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2000. xvii + 337 p. A chronological account and analysis of events from the February Revolution to the dispersal of the Constituent Assembly. Drawing together the best recent scholarship on the revolutions of 1917, the author of this volume, to be highly recommended as an introduction to the subject, provides a rich and subtle discussion of the political, social and national aspects of the revolution, stressing, in particular, the complexity of the background to the Bolsheviks' success in October. See also Wade, R. A. `Political Realignment and Understanding the Russian Revolution of 1917' Soviet and Post-Soviet Review Vol. 24 (1997), Nos 1±2, pp. 1±13. 592 Walsh, E. A. The Fall of the Russian Empire: The Story of the Last of the Romanovs and the Coming of the Bolsheviki. Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1928. xviii + 357 pp. This early Western popular history, by a Jesuit scholar who visited Soviet Russia from 1921 to 1923 and who was subsequently in contact with prominent members of the eÂmigreÂ community, concentrates upon the sensational and the personal, especially the role and fate of the royal couple.

593 . 5 Surveys and Collections of Articles 593 White, J. D. The Russian Revolution, 1917± 1921: A Short History. London: Edward Arnold, 1994. viii + 312 pp. An unusual work, in that it surveys both 1917 and (albeit much more briefly) the civil war, White's volume is also, in many respects, an original one, emphasizing aspects of the history of the revolution hitherto neglected ± e.g., the key roles played by the Polish and Baltic peoples and the contrasting roles of the Moscow and Petrograd business communities. The volume is of importance too for its extensive historiographical commentary.

War in the USSR', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 10 (1971±1972), No. 4, pp. 327±360. A partial but useful summary of Soviet historiography of the civil war which identifies three strands of historical writing: `the history of military actions, that of the imperialist intervention, and that of class struggle'. Studies (General and Miscellaneous) 598 Borkenau, F. Der Russische BuÈrgerkrieg 1918± 1921. Frankfurt-am-Main: Der Monat, n.d. [1954?]. 59 pp. A brief survey of political and military events from the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk to the introduction of NEP, including coverage of the Polish±Soviet War.

594 Woehrlin, W. F. (ed. and transl.) Out of the Depths (De Profundis): A Collection of Articles on the Russian Revolution (fwd. by B. Glatzer). Irvine, CA: Charles J. Schlacks Jr, 1986. xxxix + 254 pp. An excellent translation of a collection originally published in Russian in 1918, in which contributors dwell upon the literary and philosophical questions raised by the Russian revolution. The volume includes a useful introduction.

599 Bradley, J. F. N. Civil War in Russia, 1917± 1920. London: B. T. Batsford, 1975. 197 pp. This slim volume is based upon extensive research in Western archives, but (as is the case with some of the author's other publications) the material is presented in such an incoherent manner as to baffle the general reader while its scholarly apparatus is too flimsy for it to be of great service to the specialist.

595 Wolfe, B. D. Revolution and Reality: Essays on the Origins and Fate of the Soviet System. Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1981. xxi + 401 pp. A collection of the author's articles and essays. Those of relevance to the period 1917 to 1921 are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

600 Brovkin, V. `Identity, Allegiance and Participation in the Russian Civil War', European History Quarterly Vol. 22 (1992), No. 4, pp. 541±567. A stimulating analysis of the civil war as being less a binary struggle between Reds and Whites than a tangled complex of fronts both `external' (i.e., intergovernmental) and `internal' (i.e., Red and/or White authorities versus local oppositions). Of the latter, the author views the multiple peasant wars of the time as being the most significant and postulates that although the `Greens' were, in the short term, defeated by the Bolsheviks' superior military force, ultimately, in forcing the Soviet reÂgime to retreat politically and economically (in 1921, 1934 and in the late 1980s), peasant Russia still prevailed.

596 Von York, T. S. Russia's Road to Revolution: A Social, Cultural and Intellectual History of the Russian Revolution of 1917. Boston: Christopher Publishing House, 1963. 200 pp. The author of this interesting work, a secondgeneration Russian immigrant, argues that `the history of the Russian Revolution cannot be considered as an attempt to bring about democracy'. Indeed, it was `the complete absence of the democratic ideal or actuality in the institutional patterning of Russian culture' which made the revolution so distinct from those which had preceded it in Europe and North America. Her discussion of the revolution and civil war was informed by a field study involving interviews with one hundred White Russian refugees living in the vicinity of Bridgeport, Connecticut.

601 Brovkin, V. N. Behind the Front Lines of the Civil War: Political Parties and Social Movements in Russia, 1918±1922. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1994. x + 455 pp. Relying on contemporary publications and Russian and eÂmigreÂ archives, the author of this groundbreaking book attempts to `reconstruct the course of the civil war as a social and political interaction among diverse sources of Russian society', stressing the mass opposition to the Soviet reÂgime and arguing that `military and strategic factors are far less important than popular attitudes in a civil war'.

The Civil War . 609 is particularly strong in its description and analysis of the peasant wars in Ukraine, the lower Volga, Tambov, the Cossack lands and in the rear of the White forces, but is seriously flawed by the interjection of tendentious, intemperate and polemical attacks upon the `mainstream' and `revisionist' historiography.

with his political cronies, formed the editorial board of this massive ± and, in Stalin's time, unfinished ± project). The work downplays and flagrantly falsifies the role of Trotsky while elevating that of Stalin, but retains some residual value for its inclusion of references to archival materials. 606 Hurwicz, E. Geschichte des russischen BuÈrgerkrieges. Berlin: E. Laubsche Verlagbuchhandlung Gm. b. H., 1927. 302 pp. An early account drawn from a limited number of mostly eÂ migreÂ sources. See also Hurwicz, E. Geschichte der juÈngen russischen Revolution. Berlin: Der Firn Verlag, 1922. 208 pp.

602 `The Civil War in Russia: A Roundtable Discussion' (Summary prepared by A. I. Stepanov), Russian Studies in History Vol. 32 (1993±1994), No. 4, pp. 73±95. A fascinating report of a meeting in Moscow of March to April 1992 of nineteen eminent Russian historians (most of whom had been prominent in the Soviet era) in preparation for the projected publication of a multi-volume history of the Russian civil war. The debates revolved around the issues of what the concept of `civil war' means in the Russian context (and of to precisely which chronological period it can be correctly applied) and of the apportioning of `blame' when examining its origins. The piece serves as an excellent example of the penetration of glasnost ' and `new thinking' into the Soviet historical profession.

607 LeÂderrey, E. `The Red Army during the Civil War, 1917±20', in B. H. Liddell Hart (ed.) The Soviet Army. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1956. pp. 33±44. A mistitled piece which presents a brief review of the history of the civil war and some conclusions as to the causes of the Red victory. 608 Lincoln, W. B. Red Victory: A History of the Russian Civil War. New York: Simon & Schuster, 1989. 637 pp. This superbly written and monumental survey is, as was the case with the author's earlier volumes on the revolutionary period, a refreshing blend of scrupulous research and popular history. Lincoln concentrates upon events at the fronts, but pauses to offer analyses of social, cultural and economic developments and brilliant pen-portraits of the conflict's leading personalities. Included are many hitherto unpublished photographs and an important bibliography.

603 Footman, D. Civil War in Russia. London: Faber & Faber, 1961. 328 pp. Not a general survey, but a series of distinct chapters dealing with various centres of the struggle: South Russia in 1918 and the rise of the Volunteer Army; Samara, the Urals, and Western Siberia in 1918, prior to the Kolchak coup; the rise of the Red Army; and events at Murmansk and Archangel. The final two chapters, on Makhno and on the last days of the Kolchak reÂgime, which are in many ways the best in the book, first appeared in earlier, popularized versions, with some interesting and rare photographs, as Footman, D. `Civil War in Siberia: The End of Admiral Kolchak, 1919±1920', History Today Vol. 4 (1954), No. 3, pp. 176±188; and Footman, D. `Nestor Makhno and the Russian Civil War', History Today Vol. 6 (1956), No. 12, pp. 811±820.

609 Mawdsley, E. The Russian Civil War. Boston: Allen & Unwin, 1987. xvi + 351 pp. Based on a wide range of published sources, this comprehensive, well organized and erudite volume, unerringly judicious and original in its interpretations, is the best survey of its subject in any language (particularly with regard to the military side of the conflict). The author concludes that the Bolsheviks won the civil war because they succeeded in creating `a mass army, commanded by former officers, equipped from Imperial stocks and manned by peasant conscripts' and because the Reds' forces were, quite simply, `so much larger than those of their enemies'. Included are some excellent campaign maps and a valuable bibliography. A second edition of the book includes a number of rare photographs and a usefully updated bibliography (giving references to and describing the most important materials published in Russia since the fall of communism):

604 Gordon, A. G. The Russian Civil War: A Sketch for History. London: Cassell & Co., 1937. 280 pp. A popular survey by a British journalist, badly marred by sensationalism and factual errors. Based in part upon personal reminiscences, the work concentrates upon events in South Russia. 605 Gorky, M. et al. (eds) History of the Civil War in the USSR, 2 vols. London: Lawrence & Wishart, 1937±1947. 557 + 651 pp. Less a textbook on the events of the revolution than on the rewriting of history under Stalin (who, 71

610 Meijer, J. M. `Town and Country in the Civil War', in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 259±277. A socio-psychological investigation of the roots and nature of the strained relations between town and country in the civil war years, with particular reference to anti-Soviet peasant uprisings.

615 Vigor, P. H. `The Military Strategy of the Russian Civil War', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 3 (1977), pp. 13±19. A brief discussion of the peculiar circumstances and physical conditions under which the civil war was fought and of their negative impact upon the military strategy of both the Reds and the Whites. 616 Welter, G. La Guerre civile en Russie. Paris: Payot, 1936. 200 pp. Based upon published sources, this unusual monograph is highly critical of the policies of both the Allies and the Soviet government. See also Welter, G. Histoire de la Russie communiste, 1917± 1935. Paris: Payot, 1935. 224 pp.

611 von Rimscha, H. Der russische BuÈrgerkrieg und die russische Emigration, 1917±1921. Jena: Frommanscher Buchhandlung, 1924. 170 pp. This brief but pioneering and valuable study includes excellent bibliographies of early Germanand Russian-language publications of periodical and memoir literature on its subjects. 612 Swain, G. The Origins of the Russian Civil War. London: Longman, 1995. xiv + 272 pp. An original survey of the origins of `an unnecessary war', from the Kornilov Affair to the Kolchak coup, which incorporates materials recently made available in Russian archives. The focus of the author's attention is the `patriotic socialist' opposition to the Bolsheviks: analysed are SR and Menshevik reactions to the October Revolution and their relations with the Allies and the Czechoslovak Legion, the Constituent Assembly, Komuch and the democratic counter-revolution in Siberia and North Russia.

Studies (the Legacy of the Civil War) 617 Fitzpatrick, S. `Civil War as Formative Experience', in A. Gleason, P. Kenez and R. Stites (eds) Bolshevik Culture: Experiment and Order in the Russian Revolution. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1985. pp. 57±76. In this important article the author examines Western historians' common assumption that in the civil war the Bolsheviks became accustomed to the use of terror, bureaucratic methods and repression of opposition, concluding that the Party had, in fact, become intellectually and emotionally predisposed to such methods long in advance of the attacks of their enemies.

613 Swain, G. Russia's Civil War. Stroud: Tempus, 2000. 192 pp. In this brief but reliable general survey, the author's purpose is to establish that, far from being a sideshow or a distraction from the main contest against the Whites, the Reds' battles with peasant partisans (the Greens) were central to the outcome of the civil war: indeed, Swain argues, `Russia's civil war did not only begin and end with a clash between the Bolsheviks and the peasantry, but . . . this struggle was continuous and . . . it complicated, indeed, almost wrecked, the Red struggle against the Whites.' The volume includes numerous rare photographs as well as colour reproductions of a selection of Bolshevik propaganda posters.

618 Fitzpatrick, S. `The Legacy of the Civil War', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G. Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 385±398. A critical review of Western `revisionist' literature, arguing that the civil war's most direct legacy should be sought in the NEP period rather than in the post1928 `revolution from above', by which time it was `already a distant memory', overshadowed by other traumas. See also Fitzpatrick, S. `Origins of Stalinism: How Important Was the Civil War', Acta Slavica Iaponica Vol. 2 (1984), pp. 105±116. 619 Gorsuch, A. E. `NEP Be Damned! Young Militants in the 1920s and the Culture of Civil War', Russian Review Vol. 56 (1997), No. 4, pp. 564± 580.

Photographical and Pictorial Surveys . 630 guard against the `bourgeoisification' of revolutionary mores by acting as the `keepers of the civil war legacy'. In this context the symbolic displays of behaviour, of dress and of the body took on a specific political importance, defining `another forum from which youth could challenge the Bolsheviks' right to define the revolutionary agenda'.

625 Kochan, L. The Russian Revolution. London: Wayland, 1971. 128 pp. A pictorial and photographical survey, briefly annotated, of revolutionary developments from the Decembrists to the death of Lenin. 626 Makowsky, J. (ed.) Histoire des Soviets. ExposeÂ chronologique, 1917±1922, 8 vols. Paris: n.p., 1922. 288 pp. This handsome contemporary set contains many historic photographs and artists's impressions of revolutionary events, including 215 photographs, over 300 illustrations (consisting mostly of portrait sketches) and numerous colour plates and maps.

620 Lewin, M. `The Civil War: Dynamics and Legacy', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G. Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 399±423. In this piece the author views the legacy of the civil war as a mixture of the `archaization' of rural life (paralleled by a weakening of vulnerable sectors of urban society) together with a `statization' of the Bolshevik reÂgime, as its democratic elements withered while its bureaucratic and coercive elements became predominant.

627 MuseÂe d'histoire contemporaine Affiches et imageries russe, 1914±1921.

Portrait of a Revolution: Russia, 1896±1924 (transl. by H. Kahn). Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1969. 160 pp. Presented here, with some woefully inadequate captions intended as a connecting account, are rare photographs of the revolutionary period from film archives in the Soviet Union to which FreÂdeÂric Rossif, a French film maker, was given access in 1967.

PHOTOGRAPHICAL AND PICTORIAL SURVEYS 621 Astrov, W., Sklepov, A. and Thomas, J. (eds) An Illustrated History of the Russian Revolution (transl. by F. Utley), 2 vols. London: M. Lawrence, 1928. 586 pp. A semi-official Soviet history covering the period from the turn of the century until about 1922. The work is simplistic and stinted in its analysis but remains valuable for its unique photographs and facsimile reproductions of documents and for its presentation of first-hand accounts and documents otherwise unavailable in English. Among the notable Bolshevik contributors were Bukharin, Stalin and Rykov.

629 Salisbury, H. E. Russia in Revolution, 1900± 1930 (designed by J.-C. Suares). London: AndreÂ Deutsch, 1978. 287 pp. An unoriginal (albeit slick and effective) popular history of the period, redeemed by its superb visual content, which includes many unfamiliar photographs as well as reproductions of paintings and posters.

622 Baschet, E. Russie, la reÂvolution est laÁ, 1904± 1924. Paris: E. Baschet, 1978. 279 pp.

630 Sanders, J. Russia, 1917: The Unpublished Revolution (fwd. by V. Korotich; aftwd. by F. Vaganov). New York: Abbeville Press, 1989. 259 pp. A nicely produced collection of photographs, organized into a month-by-month portrait of events (mostly the events in Petrograd) with some introductory text by the author. The majority of the photographs came from the archives of the Soviet Union.

623 Bradley, J. The Russian Revolution. London: Bison Books, 1988. 192 pp. A popular account, chiefly of note for the hundreds of lavish illustrations and rare photographs which accompany the sensible but somewhat abbreviated text. 624 Heresch, E.

Povolotzky, 1922. 237 pp. This `impartial survey', in its publisher's opinion, `throws a lurid light on the disastrous results of the attempt to realize extreme socialist theories on a grand scale'. The author, an academic involved in the cooperative movement who had left Russia in 1921, deals first with `the consequences of objectivelysociological changes in Russia' and then with `the spiritual gains and losses of the Russian people'. In sum, this is a vitriolic polemic of little or no scholarly value.

Gulf Breeze, FL: Academic International Press, 1978± 1987. xxv + 227 + xviii + 263 + xxvii + 311 pp. An accurate and readable translation of Miliukov's classic ± thoroughly documented (if blatantly partisan) ± account which was written between 1918 and 1921 and for many years remained the standard history of the revolution. Primarily concerned with the political struggle in Petrograd, the work covers the period from the collapse of tsarism to the defeat of the anti-Bolshevik forces on the outskirts of the city in the aftermath of the October Revolution. The volumes are meticulously annotated by the editor and each is prefaced by an introductory essay: Stites, R. `Miliukov and the Russian Revolution' (Volume 1); Hamburg, G. M. `Miliukov, Kerensky and Kornilov' (Volume 2); and Hamburg, G. M. `Miliukov and the Coming of the October Revolution' (Volume 3).

Frankfurtam-Main: EuropaÈische Verlagsanstalt, 1963. 88 pp. Written in 1918 and originally published in 1922, in this, the best edition of Rosa Luxemburg's critique of Leninism, the German Marxist prophesied the paralysis of the Soviet system as a consequence of the Bolsheviks' suppression of all freedom.

830 Miliukov, P. Bolshevism: An International Danger. Its Doctrine and Practice through War and Revolution. London: George Allen & Unwin, 1920. 303 pp. An emotional and propagandistic treatise on the threat of Bolshevism, the Comintern and the Soviet reÂgime to Europe and Russia. The volume is chiefly of interest now as an illustration of its Kadet author's exasperation with moderate socialists.

837 Philips Price, M. Capitalist Europe and Socialist Russia. London: British Socialist Party, 1919. 16 pp. A pro-Bolshevik survey of the failings of Imperial and Provisional governments and the triumph of the Bolsheviks. Particular attention is accorded to the early economic initiatives of the Soviet government, including the repudiation of foreign debts, workers' control, the nationalization of the banks, the founding of VSNKh, and land redistribution.

831 Nilostonski, R. Der Blutrausch des Bolschewismus. Berlin: Neudeutsche Verlags und Treuhand GmbH, 1920. 63 pp. A lurid propaganda pamphlet authored by a former member of the anti-Bolshevik Volunteer Army in South Russia.

Oxford: Blackwell, 1921. xviii + 45 pp. Describing itself as `the first attempt in English to depict the Russian Revolution historically and psychologically', this virulently anti-Bolshevik and anti-semitic pamphlet seeks to explain the success of the revolution and the defeat of the Whites.

London: Grant Richards, 1920. 240 pp. An early attempt at a theoretical analysis of Bolshevism, considering the application of Marxism to Russia and grappling with contemporary Marxist controversies such as the ongoing debate between Lenin and Kautsky. The volume includes an appendix of documents relating to the Communist International.

835 Persky, S. De Nicolas II aÁ LeÂnine (1917±1918). Paris: Payot, 1919. 368 pp. A collection of fifty-two articles which appeared originally in Le Journal de GeneÁve, La Gazetta de Lausanne, and La Tribune de GeneÁve containing valuable first-hand descriptions and analyses of events from the February Revolution to the end of 1918. The articles range from profiles of individuals (Miliukov, Nicholas II and the Grand Duke Mikhail, Kerensky, Krylenko, Lenin, Zinoviev, etc.) to reports on the Cossacks in the revolution, the Kornilov affair, German spies, the Japanese intervention, the assassination of Mirbach, the Cheka, etc.

London: John Bale, Sons and Danielsson, 1917. 119 pp. Drawing on articles previously published in the Times, the Evening Standard, the Observer and the Daily Dispatch, and writing in April 1917, the author argues that `there can be no doubt that the intervention of the Revolution has saved Russia from an ignoble peace with Germany, and the whole allied cause from being wrecked as a result of Russia's falling out of the struggle.' The `Who's Who' section, which forms the bulk of this slim volume, is of little use as a genuine point of reference, but is of interest with regard to the manner in which personalities and institutions appeared to those of liberal inclinations at the time.

than other titles of its time and is notable for its presentation of a thesis starkly in contrast to them: namely, that the Bolshevik victory was not an accident or a conspiracy but a reflection of the needs and aspirations of the Russian people. Ross visited Russia in late 1917 and travelled widely in the Volga region, Transcaucasia and Central Asia, but his personal impressions are largely inconsequential: see Ross, Russia in Upheaval [504]. 847 Russell, C. E. Bolshevism and the United States. Indianapolis: Bobbs-Merrill, 1919. 341 pp. A misleadingly entitled contemporary survey of the events in Russia, paying attention to rights and liberties, the peasantry, government institutions and efficiency, labour and transport, etc. One chapter is devoted to warnings as to how America might avoid the same fate through fairer distribution of wealth and fairer recognition of labour in government.

844 Raine, G. E. and Luboff, E. Bolshevik Russia. London: Nisbet & Co., 1920. 192 pp. A polemical tract, surveying Soviet policies and institutions, which was designed to demonstrate the virulence of the `Bolshevik threat'. For the authors, it is of particular significance that Bolshevism had been `born in London' ± a consequence of the manner in which `dangerous and disreputable people' are allowed into Britain ± and they warn that whatever Ramsay MacDonald might say about the Independent Labour Party and the Comintern having a relationship like `oil and water', `his followers . . . are all on countless platforms voicing the blessedness of the Third International . . . and are doing their utmost to seduce unthinking people into a support of Lenin's plan to overthrow civilization'. Nevertheless, the volume is still of some utility for its lengthy quotations from official documents.

845 Rappoport, A. S. Pioneers of the Russian Revolution (pref. by C. Demblon). London: Stanley Paul & Co., 1918. xxvii + 281 pp. Although primarily concerned with the history of political ideas in the nineteenth century and of no use at all as a source of information on the revolution, this volume is notable as a piece of contemporary commentary for its sections on `Paris and Petrograd' (pp. 1±41), which attempts to draw parallels between the French and the Russian revolutions), and `The Jews as Pioneers of the Russian Revolution' (pp. 228±252).

851 Sarolea, C. Impressions of Soviet Russia. London: Nash and Grayson, 1924. 276 pp. An account (littered with factual errors, misprints and misspellings, but nevertheless interesting) of the author's visit to Soviet Russia in 1923 in which he draws upon his experiences to analyse the causes of the revolution and the nature of the Soviet reÂgime. For Sarolea, Soviet rule was `not a dictatorship of the proletariat, but a dictatorship over the proletariat', which might be described even more accurately as `a dictatorship of journalists'.

852 Schostakowsky, P. Deux Ans et demi au pays des bolcheviks. Paris: Impr. HemmerleÂ, Petit et Cie, 1920. 252 pp. A mundane account of developments from the February Revolution onwards, written after the author's flight from Russia in February 1920. The work is notable only for its attempts to explain the rise of anti-semitism during the revolution (which, in any case, Schostakowsky holds to have been greatly exaggerated, citing a casualty figure of only six thousand for the entire country). Needless to say, the pogroms were apparently a result of the `fact' that of the Bolshevik leaders only Lenin was not a Jew, that nine out of ten articles in Bolshevik journals were authored by Jews, and that `the mass of the Russian people' attributed the anti-religious policies of the Bolsheviks to `the religious enmity of the Jews'.

857 Spilberg, A. Prodromes de la ReÂvolution Russe. Brussels: Spilberg, 1918. 169 pp. Includes separate chapters on the bureaucracy and the revolution, the army and the revolution, political parties, local government, students and the Jews. 858 Varney, J.

853 SchotthoÈfer, F. Sowjet-Russland im Umbau. Franfurt-am-Main: SocietaÈts-Druckerei, n.d. [1922], 197 pp. A collection of newspaper articles from the revolutionary period, all but a few of which appeared originally in the Frankfurter Zeitung.

Dutton, 1920. 220 pp. An anti-Bolshevik analysis of the theoretical and practical bases of the Soviet system, drawn from the author's own readings of Soviet laws and the speeches of Lenin and other leaders. The author of the volume was, apparently, very strongly influenced by the writings and opinions of Maxim Gorky.

854 Slonim, M. Le BolcheÂvisme vu par un Russe. Paris: EÂditions Bossard, 1921. 208 pp. A critical account by a former member of the Constituent Assembly. 855 Sokolov, A. V. [pseud.] Dans la royaume de la famine et de la haine. La Russie bolcheviste. Paris: Payot, 1920. 155 pp. The author of this highly critical analysis of the Soviet system and its leaders was Stanislav Vol'skii, who had been a Bolshevik for more than a decade before quitting the party in March 1917 when it became `entirely detached from social democracy'. He subsequently worked as an editor of Gorky's Novaia zhizn ' before his emigration.

862 Weber, M. The Russian Revolutions (transl. and ed. by G. C. Wells and P. Baehr). Cambridge: Polity, 1994. viii + 287 pp. This collection of Weber's contemporary essays on the revolutions of 1905 and 1917, heavily annotated both by the author and by the translators, includes two short polemical pieces (`Russia's Transition to Pseudo-Democracy' and `The Russian Revolution and the Peace') which were first published in April and May of 1917. On Weber's views on the Russian Revolution see Pipes, R. `Max Weber and Russia', World Politics Vol. 7 (1954±1955), pp. 371± 401; Murvar, V. `Max Weber and the Two Nonrevolutionary Events in Russia, 1917: Scientific Achievements of Prophetic Failures', in R.

856 Spargo, J. The Psychology of Bolshevism. New York: Harper, 1919. 150 pp. The author, formerly a leader of the right wing of the American Socialist Party, argues that Bolshevism in Russia is an example of the madness of men goaded to despair by a sense of injustice, some of them misled by adventurers.

An interesting attempt to demonstrate that the Bolshevik success of 1917 to 1918 would have been impossible but for the direct support offered to the party by religious segments of the Russian population, especially the peasants. The author argues that much of the rural violence witnessed in the aftermath of the revolution was driven by peasant millenarianism and by hostility to the established Church and that the Bolsheviks initially encouraged and used this phenomenon before violently suppressing it.

After an examination of the interpretations of the events of February to October 1917 to be found in the works of Miliukov, Trotsky, Kerensky and Tsereteli, the author suggests that the cause of the demise of the Provisional Government is to be found in the commitment of the SRs and Mensheviks to maintaining a coalition with the Kadets (which he attributes to their bookish interpretation of earlier revolutions in Europe and to their actual experiences in 1905) and in the timidity and lack of leadership characteristic of the SRs.

London: Edward Arnold, 1990. viii + 229 pp. An insightful combination of, on the one hand, a conventional narrative and, on the other, a fairminded summary and analysis of the nature and determinants of the four major schools of historical interpretation: Soviet, Western liberal, libertarian and revisionist. In sum, the work provides an excellent and readable introduction to the specialist literature on the subject.

Basil's argument is predicated on the assumption that 86

personal recollections, general hearsay and fantasy, in which the author's most original contribution is to identify even Alexandra Kollontai as being Jewish. Supposedly written in 1926, it is hardly surprising that the volume's publication had to await the establishment of the Vichy reÂgime in France. The author of the Forward was `Joint Director of the Centre d'Etudes Anti-Communistes'.

872 Bickerman, J. `The Old Regime and the Revolution in Russia', in J. Bickerman (ed.) Ten Years of Bolshevik Domination. Berlin/Schoneberg: S. Scholem, 1928. pp. 7±17. A rather superficial and anti-Russian analysis of the origins of the revolution, an event which is considered by the author to have been entirely unnecessary and avoidable.

878 Chernov, V. `The Disintegration of Social Classes in Russia', Foreign Affairs Vol. 2 (1923± 1924), pp. 23±42. A stylishly written analysis of the causes of the downfall of the Russian liberal bourgeoisie during the years of war and revolution, which moves on to criticize the Bolsheviks and to assess what the author judged to be the continued popularity in Russia of his own party, the SRs.

873 Bickerman, J. (ed.) Ten Years of Bolshevik Domination. Berlin/Schoneberg: S. Scholem, 1928. 260 pp. A collection of twelve articles (of a not very high standard) dealing with political, social, economic and cultural developments, from the point of view of the liberal eÂmigreÂ community. On the whole, the book is now more of value as a source on the views and concerns of the eÂmigreÂ community than of its subject matter. The chapters are annotated separately in this bibliography.

London: Pitman, 1986. pp. 145±153. 880 Coquin, F. La ReÂvolution de 1917. Paris: Presses Universitaires de France, 1962. 126 pp. A brief but thought-provoking exposition of the historical background and importance of the Bolshevik revolution ± which, the author argues, produced a stunted but nevertheless viable socialism. Included are extracts from numerous documents.

874 Bock, E. `The Russian Revolution in Today's Perspective', History Today Vol. 7 (1957), No. 12, pp. 830±839. A brief, sympathetic, but otherwise unremarkable account of the Bolshevik seizure of power and of the early political and (especially) economic measures of the Soviet government, together with some reflection upon the long-term significance of the events described.

881 Corpeanu, P. The Origins of Stalinism: From Leninist Revolution to Stalinist Society (transl. by M. Vale). Armonk, NY: M. E. Sharpe, 1986. ix + 184 pp. Examining the anti-feudal, anti-imperialist and anti-bourgeois facets of the Russian Revolution, the Roumanian author of this rather opaque study argues that `the radical break that the Russian revolution of 1917 effected in the history of mankind' gave rise to Stalinism.

875 Boffa, G. Les EÂtapes de la reÂvolution russe. Paris: FrancËois Maspero, 1962. 91 pp. A shrewdly written popular analysis of the history and significance of the revolution from the point of view of an Italian communist.

882 Cross, T. B. `The Star-crossed Marriage: Determinism and 1917', Russian Review Vol. 27 (1968), No. 4, pp. 414±420. A brief, critical analysis of the works of Nikolai Berdyaev (especially The Origin of Russian Communism. London: Geoffrey Bles, 1937. 239 pp.), Theodore von Laue (especially Why Lenin? Why Stalin? [915]) and Oliver H. Radkey [1421] and [3897], the approaches of whom the author characterizes as, respectively, `mystic, mystico-pragmatic, and pragmatic'. Cross argues that these three examples illustrate that `the determinist trap which Marx helped lay in the Western intellect' is capable of ensnaring mystics and pragmatists alike.

876 Burganov, A. Kh. `Was the October Revolution Socialist?' Russian Studies in History Vol. 33 (1994± 1995), No. 3, pp. 6±24. The author argues that a revolution which bred the administrative-command dictatorship of the Party-state cannot be termed `socialist'. In fact, he claims, it is a universal law that the psychology of propertyless wage labour makes the proletariat incapable of becoming a ruling class. 877 Canerva, M. Sept Ans chez les bolcheviks (fwd. by A. Chaumet). Paris: Editions Jean-Renard, 1943. 337 pp. This vitriolic polemic is a crude concoction of 87

V. `Bureaucratic Advance and Social Lag in the Russian Revolution', Soviet and Post-Soviet Review Vol. 25 (1998), No. 1, pp. 47±65. An argument that deep contradictions occurred in the behaviour of the victorious Bolsheviks because of the existing and growing disparity between the revolutionary socialist aims of the party and the backward nature of Russian economy and society.

889 Elwood, R. C. (ed.) Reconsiderations on the Russian Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Slavica, 1976. 278 pp. A collection of articles on aspects of the revolution by Western historians of the period. The contributions, which are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography, fall into three broad subject areas: spontaneity versus planning in the revolution; the careers of leading (but under-studied) Bolsheviks; and Latvian social democracy.

884 Davis, J. `Sociological Interpretations of the Russian Revolution', Political Science Quarterly Vol. 37 (1922), pp. 227±250. A rather shallow sociological analysis of Russian conditions prior to 1917 which contends that the diversity of Russian society, coupled with the oppressive nature of tsarism, can explain both the origins of the revolution and the nature of the Soviet reÂgime.

890 Fedotov, G. P. Ce qui demeure: reÂflexions sur la reÂvolution russe (transl. and introd. by D. Beaure). Aix-en-Provence: Publications de l'UniversiteÂ de Provence, 1990. 295 pp. 891 Feiler, A. Das Experiment des Bolschewismus. Frankfurt-am-Main: Frankfurter Societus-Druckerei, 1929. 269 pp. A good example of early German scholarship on Soviet Russia, which benefits from eschewing the relentless condemnations common to British and American works. The author was an economist by training, which is reflected in the main concerns of this analytical survey.

885 Davis, J. `International Aspects of the Russian Revolution', Papers and Proceedings of the American Sociological Society Vol. 19 (1924), pp. 80±87. A call for a more balanced and commonsensical appraisal of the Russian revolution and of Soviet attitudes to the outside world.

892 Ferrero, G. `La reÂvolution russe et l'eÂquilibre de l'Europe', UniversiteÂ de Bruxelles, Revue Vol. 38 (1933), pp. 225±239. Some unremarkable reflections upon the revolution's impact on the balance of power and political stability in Europe.

886 Deutscher, I. The Unfinished Revolution: Russia, 1917±1967. London: Oxford University Press, 1967. 115 pp. In this slim volume, the published version of his George Macaulay Trevelyan lectures at the University of Cambridge in 1967, Trotsky's biographer seeks to answer the question of whether the Russian Revolution fulfilled the hopes it aroused. His answer is that the revolution was `a compound of failure and success, of hope frustrated and hope fulfilled ± and who can measure the hopes against one another'. See also Deutscher, I. `The Unfinished Revolution, 1917± 1967', New Left Review Vol. 43 (1967), pp. 27±39.

893 Ferro, M. `Pourquoi feÂvrier? Pourquoi octobre?', Annales: eÂconomies, socieÂteÂs, civilisations Vol. 23 (1968), No. 1, pp. 31±48. A thoughtful argument that the oft-posited contrast between the spontaneity of the February Revolution and the disciplined political action of the Bolsheviks' seizure of power in October is not as stark as is usually supposed.

887 Dobb, M. `The October Revolution and Half a Century', in L. Huberman et al., 50 Years of Soviet Power. New York: Monthly Review Press, 1967. pp. 38±44. A sympathetic reflection upon the events of 1917 by a British economist of Marxist sympathies. For Dobb, the October Revolution changed the whole map of history in the twntieth century `more fundamentally and more significantly than any other set of events within a similar time span throughout history'.

894 Foerster, F. W. `La civilisation occidentale et la reÂvolution russe', L'AnneÂe politique, eÂconomique et cooperative Vol. 21 (1946), pp. 193±217. A vapid discussion of the origins and consequences of the Russian revolution as well as a comparison between Bolshevik and the Nazi seizures of power. For the author, `The West is assuredly just to view Russia and her ``fifteen colonies'' as a danger for the great human patrimony of western civilization.'

895 Frank, V. S. `The Land Question and the 1917 Revolution', Russian Review (London) Vol. 1 (1945), pp. 22±35. 88

Historical Interpretations . 902 The author argues that `a summary examination of the history of the land question during the last 200 years shows that there was nothing ``inevitable'' about the [revolution] of 1917', that land problems were being ameliorated in the late imperial period, and that only the interruption of the war precipitated revolution.

896 Frankel, J. `1917: The Problem of Alternatives', in E. R. Frankel, J. Frankel and B. Knei-Paz (eds) Revolution in Russia: Reassessments of 1917. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 3±13. The author poses a `counter-factual' argument to the effect that had the elections to the Constituent Assembly been held earlier in 1917 `a parliamentary reÂgime in Russia would surely have had a fighting chance of indefinite survival'.

900 Haynes, M. `Was There a Parliamentary Alternative in Russia in 1917?', International Socialism (1997), pp. 3±59. An argument that far from being a mistake or a `freak result of war', the October Revolution was a noble `attempt to escape from the bloodiest war that capitalism had yet produced'. The author dwells upon the questions of `why it was that a credible bourgeois alternative could not emerge' and why the SRs and Mensheviks `refused to support the Bolsheviks' in a socialist coalition government, preferring to `hold out a hand to Russia's ruling class over a now unbridgeable gap'. For Haynes, the centre-left parties of Russia and Europe were to blame for the failure of international revolution and, therefore, for the degeneration of the revolution in Russia.

897 Geyer, D. The Russian Revolution: Historical Problems and Perspectives (transl. by B. Little). Leamington Spa: Berg, 1987. viii + 163 pp. Originally published in German in 1968, in an attempt to acquaint the somewhat insular German academic community with the post-war findings of other Western scholars, this is a brief but lucid and penetrating analysis, based upon an unusually broad range of sources in English, French, German and Russian, and concentrating upon a number of key themes: the social and political preconditions of the revolution; the interaction of war and revolution; the limits and prospects for democracy in 1917; the methods and techniques of Bolshevik politics in October and in the first months of Soviet rule; and the impact of the revolution. Following the deterministic approach of Theodore von Laue, Geyer attempts to fit the Russian revolution into an overall pattern of modernization. See also Geyer, D. `Die russische Revolution als zeitgeschichtliches Problem', Vierteljahrshefte fuÈr Zeitgeschichte Vol. 16 (1968), No. 1, pp. 36±47.

901 Hildermeier, M. Die russische Revolution 1905± 1921. Frankfurt-am-Main: Suhrkamp Verlag, 1989. 351 pp. A solid textbook, synthesizing predominantly secondary literature and drawing heavily upon the historiographical conceptualization of the revolution developed by Dietrich Geyer. 902 Hildermeier, M. `Forschungsbericht: Arbeiterschaft und politische Radikalisierung in der Russischen Revolution 1905±1917', Geschichte und Gesellschaft Vol. 16 (1990), No. 4, pp. 512±535. An eminently readable and well-referenced study and historiographical survey. The author argues that much as the workers `were the led and not the leaders' of the revolutions of 1905 and 1917, they nevertheless underwent a crucial process of radicalization which significantly transformed their demands and aspirations. Ultimately, the alienation which developed between educated `society' and the urban lower classes, though initially covered up in the spring of 1917, re-emerged in force and formed the `decisive prerequisite' for the insurrection in October, `whether one is inclined to call it class conscious or not'.

898 GouleÂvitch, A. Czarism and Revolution (transl. by N. J. Couriss). Hawthorne, CA: Omni Publications, 1962. 272 pp. An argument that the Bolshevik revolution, `a socially criminal act', only succeeded because of a fatal coincidence of accidental factors. In the years before 1917, the author argues, `Czarism, a truly social monarchy, had made great strides towards modernization whilst acting as a barrier against barbarism'. 899 Gurian, W. Der Bolschewismus. Einfuhrung in Geschichte und Lehre. Freiburg im Breisgau: Herder, 1931. xi + 337 pp. A pioneering work by a German Catholic 89

903 . 6 Miscellaneous and General Interpretative Studies 903 Hofer, W. `Lenin and Wilson in 1917', Modern World Vol. 6 (1968), pp. 67±74. An examination of the twentieth-century conflict between totalitarianism and democracy, as represented by the persons and pronouncements of Lenin and Woodrow Wilson.

which Russian intellectuals, from all shades of the political spectrum, may have had their understanding of the realities of the political situation in 1917 obscured or distorted by their romantic, mythologized reading of the French Revolution of 1789. 909 Keep, J. `The Bolshevik Revolution: Prototype or Myth?', in D. Hammond (ed.) The Anatomy of Communist Takeovers. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1975. pp. 46±60. Surveying the events of February to October 1917, the author argues that details of the technical and political preparation for the Bolshevik seizure of power mattered less to later generations of Communists planning their own coups than `the historical myth of 1917' built up by Soviet historians: `That myth enhanced their self-confidence and quickened their feeling that to succeed they should be audacious.'

904 Holquist, P. `Anti-Soviet Svodki from the Civil War: Surveillance as a Shared Feature of Russian Political Culture', Russian Review Vol. 56 (1997), No. 3, pp. 445±450. A discussion of the origins, nature and potential research use of the intelligence reports on popular attitudes collated by the Don Cossack Host during the civil war and a comparison with the more familiar Soviet svodki of the same period. The piece is intended to demonstrate the `significant similarities in the forms and style of politics practised across ideological boundaries during the Russian Revolution'.

910 Keep, J. The Russian Revolution: A Study in Mass Mobilization. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1976. xvii + 614 pp. Confining itself to European Russia (with occasional forays into Ukraine) and to the year 1917 and the first half of the year 1918, this pioneering work of social history concerns itself with the mass organizations of the revolutionary period ± the rural and urban soviets, trade unions and factory committees ± detailing the manner in which the Bolsheviks were able to extend their control over them in the year after the October Revolution. Chapter 3 of the volume also appeared as Keep, J. `Liquidating Illiteracy in Revolutionary Russia', Russian History Vol. 9 (1982), pp. 173±186.

905 Hook, S. `The Russian Revolution: A Test Case', in The Hero in History: A Study in Limitation and Possibility. New York: John Day, 1943. pp. 184± 228. An argument that the Bolshevik revolution could not have succeeded without Lenin's leadership, for, `if Lenin had not been on the scene, not a single revolutionary leader could have substituted for him'. See also Hook, S. `Reflections on the Russian Revolution', Southern Review Vol. 4 (1938±1939), pp. 429±452. 906 Joussain, A. `Les reÂvolutions qui se font: la solution russe du probleÁme social', Revue internationale de sociologie Vol. 43 (1935), pp. 387±399. A somewhat obtuse and unfocused discussion of the achievements of the Bolsheviks in raising the standard of living and quality of life in Russia.

911 Koigen, D. `Programmatischer Entwurf zu einer Soziologie der russischen Revolution (Zusammenbruch und Selbstschutz des russischen Reiches)', Zeitschrift fuÈr Politik Vol. 12 (1922±1923), pp. 304± 333. A wide-ranging consideration of aspects of Russian culture and history, notably the peculiar circumstances of Russian state-building in the modern era, and of their relation to the revolutions of February and October 1917.

907 Karnecki, H. `Vagabondage et bolchevisme', Revue internationale de sociologie Vol. 31 (1923), pp. 354±367. Quoting Gorky at length and citing extensively from the 1919 Bolshevik party programme, while making comparisons with the more `civilized' and `cultured' development of his native Poland, the author of this inconsequential piece finds that `the ideas of the Bolsheviks are the direct offspring of the rural vagabonds prevalent in the expanses of Russia and of the primitive barbarians'.

912 Koulicher, A. `La theÂorie des mouvements des peuples et la guerre civile en Russie', Revue internationale de sociologie Vol. 32 (1924), pp. 492±507. An intriguing early attempt by a Russian professor to place the events of the revolution and civil war into the context of mass movements (both political and migrational) and regional conflicts in Russia consequential to war and economic collapse.

908 Keep, J. `1917: The Tyranny of Paris over Petrograd', Soviet Studies Vol. 20 (1968±1969), No. 1, pp. 22±35. An interesting examination of the manner in 90

Comparing the revolution in Russia with revolutions elsewhere (particularly in Turkey, Persia and China), the author concludes that its nature was to a significant degree conditioned by Russia's pre- and post-revolutionary contacts with the European West.

917 Laverychev, V. `On the Question of the Material Preconditions of the Great October Socialist Revolution', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 27 (1985), No. 1, pp. 38±61. An orthodox Soviet argument that `a definite system of state-monopoly capitalism existed in Russia on the eve of October', thereby creating the preconditions for a socialist transformation. 918 Lawton, L. The Russian Revolution (1917± 1926). London: Macmillan, 1927. 499 pp. The author was a frequent visitor to pre- and post-revolutionary Russia and in this work assesses the impact of October upon the institutions and social life of the country. See also Lawton, L. `The Religion of the Russian Revolution', English Review Vol. 26 (1918), pp. 523±530; Lawton, L. `Peasants under Lenin', Nineteenth Century No. 88 (1920), pp. 445±449; and Lawton, L. `Lenin's Zig-Zags', Fortnightly Review No. 109 (1921), pp. 911±920.

914 KrejcõÂ , J. `Image and Reality of the Russian Revolution', The Masaryk Journal Vol. 3 (2000), No. 1, pp. 95±105. A brief but wide-ranging piece, arguing that the October Revolution is of significance not because it was a proletarian revolution (for the proletarian leadership of it was soon replaced by professional politicians, or `ideocrats') but because `under the banner of Marxism, the Soviet ideocracy seemed to have resolved a long-standing crucial problem of Russia: its adaptation to the technical development of the Western world without the loss of its identity as a separate civilization'.

919 Liebman, M. The Russian Revolution: Origins, Phases and Meaning of the Bolshevik Victory (pref. by I. Deutscher). New York: Random House, 1970. 391 pp. Largely a polemical rehash of Trotsky's views, this volume offers few insights to the historian. The author was a noted Belgian communist.

915 von Laue, T. H. Why Lenin? Why Stalin? A Reappraisal of the Russian Revolution, 1900±1930. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1964. 242 pp. An original, elegant and very influential essay, in the tradition of modernization theory, suggesting that the course of Russia's revolutionary history can only be understood through an appreciation of the pressure which global power politics and the peculiarities of Russian backwardness exerted upon the country's leaders before, in and after 1917. See also von Laue, T. H. `Die Revolution vom Aussen als erste Phase der russischen Revolution 1917', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 4 (1956), No. 2, pp. 138±158; von Laue, T.

920 Lih, L. T. Bread and Authority in Russia, 1914± 1921. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1990. xxvii + 320 pp. In this original analysis the author explores the problem of food supply during the world war and the civil war, using it as an illustration of the dissolution and eventual reconstitution of authority. Lih's controversial conclusions are that the civil war witnessed positive and constructive initiatives to restructure state authority under Bolshevik control and that the introduction of NEP implied no fundamental break in grain procurement policy. For a detailed commentary, see Perrie, M. `Food Supply in a Time of Troubles: Grain Procurement and the Russian Revolution', Peasant Studies Vol. 17 (1990), No. 3, pp. 217±225. 921 Lobanov-Rostovsky, A. `Psychological Undercurrents of the Russian Revolution', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 7 (1928±1929), pp. 554± 564. An extremely interesting analysis of the mass forces in Russian society which culminated in the revolutions of 1917, identified by the author as `the desire for ownership of the land, freedom of religion, democratisation of the state, economic development and a commonwealth on a federative order'.

916 Lauenroth, H. and Rosenfeld, G. `Sowjetruûland Oktober 1917±Juli 1918', Zeitschrift fuÈr Geschichtswissenschaft Vol. 36 (1988), No. 2, pp. 122±137. A brief discussion of the major political and economic initiatives of the Bolsheviks during the first ten months of Soviet rule.

922 . 6 Miscellaneous and General Interpretative Studies 922 Lossky, N. O. `Reflections on the Origins and Meaning of the Russian Revolution', Russian Review Vol. 10 (1951), pp. 293±300. The author argues that `the Revolution of 1917 was the result of an unfortunate confluence of circumstances, and not at all the inner necessity of the Russian historical process . . . and if it had not been for World War I, the revolution in Russia would not have occurred'.

the nature and origins of the October Revolution by the noted Soviet dissident historian and confirmed Leninist, essentially comprises a critique of historical interpretations provided in official Soviet textbooks. Also included is an important and original survey of Bolshevik policy (particularly in relation to agriculture and food supply) down to June 1918. 927 Mosse, W. E. `The February Regime: Prerequisites for Success', Soviet Studies, Vol. 19 (1967± 1968), pp. 100±108. A comparison of the successful consolidation of democracy in Germany after November 1918 with the failure of moderate socialists in Russia after the February Revolution, concluding that the reasons for the latter `are to be sought less in the men and events of 1917 than in the previous course of Russian historical development', which (in comparison to the German experience) had provided no `training for democracy' and had bequeathed major social problems and an ongoing war.

923 McDaniel, T. Autocracy, Capitalism, and Revolution in Russia. Berkeley/Los Angeles: University of California Press, 1988. xi + 500 pp. Drawing upon a vast array of published materials and Soviet archival sources, the author of this outstanding work attempts to explain how there developed in Russia a revolutionary labour movement which in 1917 would bring about the downfall of both autocracy and capitalism. Examining the `institutional setting' of Russian labour under the last tsars as well as the imperial government's labour policy, McDaniel argues that it was the workers' `general assumptions developed under the tsarist regime', not the economic crisis engendered by the war, which distinguished Russian workers from their European counterparts and thrust the Bolsheviks into power.

928 Nearing, S. `Hurrah for the Russian Revolution', in L. Huberman et al., 50 Years of Soviet Power. New York: Monthly Review Press, 1967. pp. 32±37. A brief thanksgiving for the fact of and achievements of the Bolshevik victory by an American radical who was active in the anti-war movement during the First World War.

New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1959. 62 pp. A collection of extracts from the published writings of key figures in the events of 1917, reflecting a variety of views on the reasons for the Bolsheviks' victory. Included are extracts from the notorious and ultra-Stalinist Short Course, as well as from the accounts by Trotsky [588], Viktor Chernov [283], Kerensky (The Crucifixion [256], Miliukov [828] and Denikine [1249].

929 Noetzel, K. Die soziale Bewegung in Russland. Ein Einfuehrungsversuch auf Grund der russischen Gesellschaftslehre. Berlin: DVA, 1923. 556 pp. A rambling discussion of the crisis of humanity caused by the loss of individual will to communitarianism, as revealed in the supposedly specifically Russian concept of society and its confrontation with Western ideas and realities which led to the radicalism of Russian Marxism, as the only genuine Marxism, and the triumph of Bolshevism, as its inevitable epitome.

925 Malia, M. Comprendre la ReÂvolution russe (pref. by A. BelancËon). Paris: EÂditions du Seuil, 1980. 244 pp. An exceptionally insightful and well-organized consideration of various contemporary and historical interpretations of the Russian Revolution opens this volume, before the author proceeds to consider the place of the Russian revolution in the history of European revolutions and to examine events from the 1905 Revolution to the NEP and the rise of Stalin.

930 Otter, L. The October Revolution: Alternative Analyses. n.p: L. Otter, 1988. 29 pp. An anarchist pamphlet which discusses a variety of (mainly left-wing) interpretations of the origins and significance of the Russian revolution. 931 Owen, L.

937 Roberts, H. L. `Causality and Contingency in March and November 1917', in H. L. Roberts Eastern Europe: Politics, Revolution and Diplomacy. New York: Knopf, 1970. pp. 221±240. The author argues that, unlike the February Revolution (which was `the consequence of substantial and necessary causes'), the October Revolution `was not geared to any real political or historical necessity' and that Lenin's victory was a combination of his luck and his ability to manipulate a chaotic situation to the Bolsheviks' advantage.

932 Philipp, W. `Die Oktober-Revolution 1917 ± Ursachen und Wirkungen', Forschungen zur OsteuropaÈischen Geschichte Vol. 33 (1983), pp. 247±269. A generalized discussion, lacking footnotes, which was originally delivered as a conference paper. The author ascribes the Bolshevik ascendancy in 1917 to `four hundred years of autocratic eÂtatism which it had not been possible to supersede in hardly two generations' of modernization.

938 Rogger, H. `October 1917 and the Tradition of Revolution', Russian Review Vol. 27 (1968), No. 4, pp. 395±413. Largely an appraisal of Lenin's role in the October Revolution, with much reference to Daniels's then recently published article on `The Bolshevik Gamble' [1487].

933 Raiklin, E. `On the Causality of Great Personalities and Great Events, Exemplified by Lenin and the October Revolution', International Journal of Social Economics Vol. 18 (1991), Nos 5±7, pp. 98±132. The author argues that the Bolsheviks represented everything regressive in Russian society, that the party was a carbon copy of Imperial Russia's centralized state, and that Lenin, in failing to build a new social structure, laid the foundations for totalitarian state capitalism. For a reply, see Armour, L. `Professor Raiklin, Hegel and the World Historical Individuals, International Journal of Social Economics Vol. 18 (1991), Nos 5±7, pp. 133±138.

939 Rosenberg, A. History of Bolshevism: From Marx to the First Five Year Plan. London: Oxford University Press, 1934. viii + 250 pp. This wide-ranging work ± an appraisal of the Bolshevik revolution and government by a former German communist ± while praising the achievements of Lenin in Russia is quick to warn that such methods would be entirely inappropriate in Western Europe.

934 Reiman, M. `Spontaneity and Planning in the Plebian Revolution', in R. C. Elwood (ed.) Reconsiderations on the Russian Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Slavica, 1976. pp. 10±19. The author initially traces the origins of the February Revolution to Russia's economic development before moving on to discuss the October Revolution, characterizing the Bolsheviks as initially responsive to the spontaneous movements of the masses before they became the definers, leaders and manipulators of such movements.

940 Rosenberg, W. G. Transforming Russia and China: Revolutionary Struggle in the Twentieth Century. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1982. xviii + 397 pp. Chapter II of this `parallel' (as opposed to comparative) history comprises one of the first attempts to survey the events of 1917 to 1921 in Russia according to the methods and concerns of social history. 941 Schapiro, L. B. The Russian Revolutions and the Origins of Present-day Communism. Hounslow: Maurice Temple Smith, 1984. xi + 239 pp. Ranking among the best short accounts of the Russian revolution, this work, a summation of the distinguished author's lifetime study of the subject, is particularly noteworthy for its analysis of the political struggle in Petrograd from February to October 1917, and its judgements regarding the failings and failure of the Provisional Government. On the author see Rigby, T. H. `Leonard Schapiro and the Russian Revolutions', Government and Opposition Vol. 20 (1985), pp. 218±232.

Paris: Bossard, 1926. xviii + 195 pp. A polemical tract designed to document the threat to Europe and the world embodied by the Third International. A glossary at the outset undertakes to reveal the `true names' and `origins' of the leading proponents, needless to say identifying the overwhelming majority of them as Jewish or, as in the case of Krasin, married to a Jewess. 936 von Rimscha, H. `WesenszuÈge der Revolution Lenins 1917±1921', in Das Sowjetsystem in der heutigen Welt.

943 Shlapentokh, D. `The Images of the French Revolution in the February and Bolshevik Revolutions', Russian History Vol. 16 (1989), No. 1, pp. 31± 54. This fascinating article traces the approaches to the relationship between the Russian and French revolutions of a variety of Russian politicians and political parties from February 1917 to the end of the civil war, as well as their employment of slogans, songs and symbols derived from the French example. The author concludes that no Russian politician was ever guided by the French `script', and that the nature of the references they made to it was determined by their changing visions of the Russian revolutionary process. This article is much to be preferred to the author's confusing, badly organized, badly written and atrociously copy-edited later book: Shlapentokh, D. The Counter-Revolution: Images of Thermidor and Napoleon at the Time of the Russian Revolution and Civil War. London: Macmillan, 1998. vii + 183 pp.

947 Taylor, A. J. P. `Russia in 1917: The Last European Revolution', in A. J. P. Taylor, Revolutions and Revolutionaries. London: Hamish Hamilton, 1980. pp. 141±160. Perhaps more interesting for its accompanying photographs than for its uncharacteristically uninspired analysis of 1917, this short chapter places the Russian revolution in the context of the series of European revolutions from 1789 and concludes with the thought that `the old revolutionary inspiration flagged and died when the socialist revolution failed to become international after the Bolshevik seizure of power in 1917'. 948 Timasheff, N. S. `On the Russian Revolution: Was Stagnation Its Cause?', Review of Politics Vol. 4 (1942), pp. 287±302. In this essay the influential eÂmigreÂ commentator argues that, contrary to the views he finds expressed in Soviet and `bourgeois' histories (both Russian and Western), pre-revolutionary Russia was far from being stagnant (politically, economically, culturally or socially). He admits that social tensions existed (as a consequence of differing rates of development in various fields of society), but holds that these were `on the decline at the beginning of the 20th century' and only increased to unbearable levels during the war because of the absence of capable leadership. See also Timasheff, N. S. `The Russian Revolution 25 Years After', Review of Politics Vol. 5 (1943), No. 4, pp. 415±440.

New York: Duell, Sloan and Pearce, 1950. 634 pp. Included in the first section of this volume are extracts from critical works on the revolution by Rosa Luxemburg, Karl Kautsky, Victor Chernov, Julius Martov, Bertrand Russell, Alexander Berkman, Emma Goldman, and Victor Serge. Each extract is introduced by the editor.

949 Tompkins, S. R. The Triumph of Bolshevism: Revolution or Reaction? Norman, OK: University of Oklahoma Press, 1967. xi + 331 pp. In this wide-ranging work the veteran author (who actually participated in the intervention, as a member of the Canadian Expeditionary Force) dwells less on the events of 1905 to 1917 which brought the Bolsheviks to power than on a comparison between the growth of the revolutionary movement in Russia and the Enlightenment and the socialist movement in the West.

A reconsideration of the relevance or irrelevance of Marxist theory to Russian conditions prior to the 1917 revolutions, arguing that Marxist ideas can be illuminating when considering economic developments in the years 1880 to 1914, but are less useful in the political sphere.

951 Turner, I. `The Significance of the Russian Revolution', in E. Kamenka (ed.) A World in Revolution. Canberra: Australian National University Press, 1970. pp. 25±37. An essay surveying the significance of the October Revolution for various revolutionary movements around the world ± both as a model for their actions and policies and as `a moral touchstone, or loadstar'. The author argues that although in the decade or so after 1917 the doctrines of Leninism might have been (or might have been thought to be) universally applicable, they no longer were so thereafter, being overtaken by the example of Mao Tse Tung in the 1930s and 1940s and, for Western youth, the `Lennonism' of the Beatles in the 1960s.

956 Wade, R. A. `Why October? The Search for Peace in 1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 20 (1968), No. 1, pp. 36±45. The author posits the Mensheviks and SRs' failure to get Russia out of the war as the key to understanding the drift toward Bolshevism during 1917, while contending that, in the conditions of Europe at that time, the peace programme of the Soviet parties `had virtually no chance of success'. 957 Williams, R. C. `The Russian Revolution and the End of Time: 1900±1940', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 43 (1996), pp. 364±401. An unusual contemplation of the nature of time during the revolutionary era and of contemporary impressions of it, focusing upon a variety of apocalyptic and messianic contemporary interpretations, as well as utopian and science-fictional responses.

952 Ulam, A. B. `Reflections on the Revolution', Survey No. 64 (1967), pp. 3±13. Some rather inconclusive comments upon, among other things, the nature of Russian Marxism and the relation of Marxism to Bolshevik tactics in 1917. See also Ulam, A. B. `The Historical Role of Marxism and the Soviet System', World Politics Vol. 8 (1955), No. 1, pp. 20±45.

958 Wise, R. B. A. The Bolshevik Revolution: From Ascendancy to Consolidation. London: Veritas Foundation Publication Centre, 1991. 141 pp. A strange and rather scurrilous mixture of armchair commentary and oddly detailed narrative, this volume, dealing with the period 1917 to 1921, is based on a limited selection of published sources ± albeit of sources as disparate in their nature and relevance as one could possibly imagine.

953 Uldricks, T. J. `The ``Crowd'' in the Russian Revolution: Towards Reassessing the Nature of Revolutionary Leadership', Politics and Society Vol. 4 (1974), No. 3, pp. 397±413. In this intriguing piece, one of the earliest examples of so-called `revisionist' writing on the revolution, the author argues that popular mobilization was `a key element in the revolutionary process'. However, he concludes that rather than the eÂlite mobilizing the masses, in Russia in 1917 it was the radicalism of the masses which `mobilized an elite [i.e., the Bolshevik Party]'.

959 Wittfogel, K. A. `The Marxist View of Russian Society and Revolution', World Politics Vol. 12 (1960), No. 4, pp. 487±508. A critical consideration of the views of Marx, Engels, Plekhanov and the pre-war Lenin on the revolutionary potential of Russian society, focusing upon the concept of Russia as an `Asiatic society' and Russia's `oriental despotism'.

954 Verner, A. M. `What's in a Name? Of DogKillers, Jews and Rasputin', Slavic Review Vol. 53 (1994), No. 4, pp. 1046±1070. A fascinating and well-documented analysis based on a sample of 502 petitions for a change of surname (submitted between 1889 and 1927), interpreting this step as a means by which `some people, both as individuals and members of groups, maintained or

Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice Hall, 1967. 249 pp. An important transcript of the minutes of meetings of the Russian Council of Ministers of July to September 1915, as taken by A. N.

968 Vernadsky, G. A Source Book for Russian History from Early Times to 1917, Vol. 3: Alexander II to the February Revolution. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1972. 338 pp. The final section of this, the final volume of a much-respected series, includes materials relating to the war and the background of the February Revolution. The focus is on the state of the army and the attitude of the Duma to the war and to the autocracy.

964 Freeze, G. L. (ed.) From Supplication to Revolution: A Documentary Social History of Imperial Russia. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1988. xv + 331 pp. A unique and valuable array of documents, drawn from Soviet archival and published sources, illustrating what a selection of social groups (the nobility, the bureaucracy, the army, the urban middle classes and the workers, the national minorities, and women) decried and demanded at three crucial junctures of Russian history (the 1760s, 1860s and the years 1905 to 1906).

HISTORIOGRAPHY 969 McNeal, R. H. `The Fate of Imperial Russia', in S. H. Baron and N. W. Heer (eds) Windows on the Russian Past: Essays on Soviet Historiography since Stalin. Columbus, OH: American Association for the Advancement of Slavic Studies, 1977. pp. 122±138. Reviewing key Soviet publications from the 1950s to the 1970s dealing with the history of early twentieth-century Russia, McNeal argues that although their authors axiomatically maintain that the imperial reÂgime was doomed and that a Bolshevik victory was inevitable, such works can be read with profit by Western researchers more keen to question those assumptions ± particularly those works dealing with the limitations of the liberal movement in Russia and with the existence (or not) of a `revolutionary situation' in 1914.

Paris: Editions Bossard, 1920. 197 pp. A collection of the `secret treaties regarding tsarist war aims published by the Bolsheviks in 1917±1918'.

970 Baykov, A. `The Economic Development of Russia', Economic History Review Vol. 7, No. 2 (1954), pp. 137±149. Although this brief treatise on the development of the Russian economy from the late eighteenth century to the Soviet period contains no detailed coverage of the late imperial period, it remains a valuable introduction both to the subject and to the noted eÂmigreÂ economic historian's conception of Russia's development.

976 Fuller, W. C. Civil±Military Conflict in Imperial Russia, 1881±1914. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1986. xxvi + 295 pp. A lucid and important study of relations between the military and government departments under the last two tsars, noting in particular the military's constant (and unsuccessful) struggle to maintain its share of the state budget and its protests (again unsuccessful) at the increasing use of servicemen for police duties. The author's thesis is that the fulcrum of the military's struggle for its institutional interests was a growing sense of professionalism.

971 Black, C. (ed.) The Transformation of Russian Society. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1960. vii + 695 pp. Although now badly dated in many respects, this collection of papers presented to a 1958 conference has by no means lost all its value and remains useful, if for no other reason, as a guide to the state of Western scholarship at the time on the Russian/ Soviet army, peasantry, nobility, etc.

Batsford, 1986. 288 pp. The best and most detailed interpretive analysis of the late tsarist economy, although overly technical to be of much use to the general reader. See also Gatrell, P.

Fair Lawn, NJ: Essential Books, 1959. 256 pp. A masterful and lucid chronological account of political, economic, social and religious developments in Russia from 1861 to 1917, containing some incisive and illuminating characterizations of the leading figures of the period.

978 Geifman, A. (ed.) Russia under the Last Tsar. Oxford: Blackwell, 1999. viii + 310 pp. A collection of twenty substantial essays by an international team of expert contributors, providing a first-class (if poorly indexed) survey of all the main revolutionary and liberal parties, right-wing radicals, the Okhrana, the Duma, the State Council, the Church and national movements in the two decades preceding 1917.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1965, pp. 706± 800. A formidably and enduringly influential account of agricultural developments in late-imperial Russia, from the emancipation of the serfs to the Stolypin reforms.

974 Diakin, V. S. `The Leadership Crisis in Russia on the Eve of the February Revolution', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 23 (1984), No. 1, pp. 10±38. A translation of an article by a leading Soviet historian of early twentieth-century Russia in which, with heavy irony, the author uses archival and memoir sources to lay bare the almost unbelievable series of intrigues at court, among the high aristocracy and in Duma circles in the last months of the Romanov reÂgime.

980 Geyer, D. Russian Imperialism: The Interaction of Domestic and Foreign Policy, 1860±1914. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1987. 368 pp. An important, erudite, and original study, focusing (in the tradition of Fritz Fischer) upon the interactions between foreign policy and various aspects of domestic policy ± finance, economics, government, public opinion, etc. The copious annotations provide a mine of bibliographical data.

975 Ferenczi, C. Aussenpolitik und OÈffentlichkeit in Russland, 1906±1912. Husum: Matthiesen, 1982. 328 pp. Investigating the prospects of a constitutional monarchy in Russia, the author examines aspects of `mediation between state and society' regarding foreign policy. He concludes that there was little hope of reaching a lasting consensus between the 98

Studies (General and Miscellaneous) . 986 981 Gleason, W. `The All-Russian Union of Towns and the Politics of Urban Reform in Tsarist Russia', Russian Review Vol. 35 (1976), pp. 290±303. An examination, through the prism of the Union of Town Councils and Zemstvos (Zemgor), of the largely neglected subject of the division within urban society between the privileged groups (tsenzovye elementy) and those disenfranchised professionals deprived of the vote by the 1892 Municipal Statute. The article is based, in part, upon Soviet archival sources.

985 Hagen, M. Die Entfaltung politischer OÈffentlichkeit in Russland, 1906±1914. Wiesbaden: Franz Steiner, 1982. x + 402 pp. Although stating as his aim to present all the potentialities of post-1905 Russia, most of what the author of this ambitious work has to say regarding the interaction of the government and the political public seems to indicate that the `unfolding' of political dialogue was set to continue and expand, despite efforts at repression and restoration.

982 Gogel, S. Du Ursachen der russischen Revolution vom Jahre 1917. Eine historisch-soziologische Skizze. Berlin: Verlag Hermann Sack, 1926. 222 pp. A portrayal of the steady progress of decay in the late Russian Empire, which made, in the opinion of the author, the cataclysm of 1917 inevitable. The volume is particularly notable for its first section, dealing with the Russian legal system and bureaucracy and the legislative procedures of the Duma, with which Gogel was intimately familiar. Its second section, attempting a `general characterization of the Russian people', is more schematic and, at times, quite scurrilous in its judgements.

986 Haimson, L. H. `The Problem of Social Stability in Urban Russia, 1905±1917', Slavic Review Vol. 23 (1964), No. 4, pp. 619±642; Vol. 24 (1965), No. 1, pp. 1±22. This influential work, the publication of which signalled the beginning of a new era in Western studies of the revolution, amounts to an assault on those such as Gerschenkron and Mendel who had contended that the post-1905 constitutional reÂgime was viable until assaulted by the defeats of the First World War. Rather, the author contends, the period was marked by a fatal `dual polarization' in Russian society, as the liberal intelligentsia abandoned all faith in tsardom while the new working class pulled away from both the autocratic state and the forces of political moderation. The second part of the article is followed by discussions of the issues raised: Mendel, A. P. `Peasant and Worker on the Eve of the First World War', Slavic Review Vol. 24 (1965), No. 1, pp. 23±33; and von Laue, T. H. `The Chances for Liberal Constitutionalism', Slavic Review Vol. 24 (1965), No. 1, pp. 34±46. There is also a reply by Haimson (Vol. 24, pp. 47±56). For further comment see also Cross, T. B. `Geography and Arbitrariness: Factors in Russian Revolutionism', Slavic Review Vol. 24 (1965), No. 4, pp. 706±708. Haimson's themes were developed by him and his students in Haimson, L. H. (ed.) The Politics of Rural Russia, 1905±1914. Bloomington, IN: Indiana University Press, 1979. x + 308 pp; and Haimson, L. and Brian, EÂ. `Changements deÂmographiques et greÁves ouvrieÁres aÁ SaintPeÂtersbourg, 1905±1914', Annales: eÂconomies, socieÂteÂs, civilisations Vol. 40 (1985), No. 4, pp. 781-803. See also Haimson's subsequent expansion upon this theme: Haimson, L. `The Problem of Social Identities in Early 20th Century Russia', Slavic Review Vol. 47 (1988), No. 1, pp. 1±20. This too is followed by discussions: Rosenberg, W. G. `Identities, Power, and Social Interaction in Revolutionary Russia' (pp. 21± 28), Rieber, A. `Landed Property, State Authority and Civil War', (pp. 29±37). See also Rieber, A. J. `The Sedimentary Society', Russian History Vol. 16 (1989), Nos 2±4, pp. 353±376. Also: Haimson, L.

983 Gregory, P. R. Russian National Income, 1885± 1913. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1983. xiv + 359 pp. In this controversial volume the author seeks to demonstrate not only that Russian economic development under the last tsars was similar to that of other industrializing capitalist countries, but that agricultural productivity and consumption was expanding. The volume includes a wealth of statistical materials to substantiate these conclusions. 984 Gross, H. `Selbstverwaltung und Staatskrise in Russland 1914±1917. Macht und Ohnmacht von Adel und Bourgeoisie am Vorabend der Februarrevolution', Forschungen zur OsteuropaÈischen Geschichte Vol. 28 (1981), pp. 205±378. Drawing on an impressive array of both published and unpublished primary and secondary sources, the author charts the activities of the All-Russian Union of Towns and the All-Russian Union of Zemstvos between 1914 and 1917, emphasizing the degree of their de facto independence and their potential to develop from a state within a state into an effective counter-state. Their failure to realize (in both senses of the word) this potential, while nevertheless serving to destabilize tsarism, Gross attributes to an ascendancy of forces too closely affiliated to the propertied classes and to a lack of unity between the two organizations. The study also provides a very detailed historiographical and bibliographical study of the two organizations. 99

Vienna: Hermann BoÈhlaus Nachf., 1978. 135 pp. A useful study of the business association movement in Russia, which throws much light upon the weakness of the Russian bourgeoisie and its inability to act effectively and unitedly during the revolutionary period.

992 Kerensky, A. F. `Russia on the Eve of World War I', Russian Review Vol. 5 (1945), No. 1, pp. 10± 30. A survey of Russia's political and economic conditions as of 1914, which is notable for its fierce criticism of Alexandra's influence over Nicholas II. Kerensky alleges that the tsaritsa drove Nicholas along the path of autocratic rule and away from any hope of reconciliation with society ± a view which the Russian premier of 1917 had earlier expressed in `Why the Russian Monarchy Fell', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 8 (1929±1930), pp. 496±513.

988 Hosking, G. A. The Russian Constitutional Experiment: Government and Duma, 1907±1914. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1973. ix + 281 pp. Concentrating upon the period from 3 June 1907 to the death of Stolypin in 1911, the author finds that no working relationship was established between the government and the Third Duma and doubts whether `the Tsarist system could ever have made a constitutional order work', as the reÂgime did not possess a viable social or political base by the eve of the First World War.

993 Kochan, M. The Last Days of Imperial Russia. London: Macmillan, 1976. 224 pp. A richly illustrated volume, intended for the general reader and based largely upon published memoir sources. The emphasis of the work is upon daily life in the last days of the tsars, but there is a heavy concentration on the lives of the Romanovs, the court and the high nobility. A chapter on religious life is devoted almost entirely to Rasputin.

989 Judge, E. H. and Simms, J. Y. (eds) Modernization and Revolution: Dilemmas of Progress in Late Imperial Russia. Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1992. 206 pp. A collection of articles on diverse subjects by an international array of authors. The relevant contributions are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

994 Korff, Baron A. Autocracy and Revolution in Russia. New York: Macmillan, 1923. viii + 161 pp. A collection of lectures, including an interesting attempt to apply a sociological approach to `The Events of the Revolution' and some speculation upon the influence of German Revolutionarungspolitik upon developments in Russia. For the author, `there cannot be any doubt that there came with Lenin some genuine German agents who were regularly in the employ of the German General Staff, and possibly he [Lenin] knew about it'.

990 Katkov, G. et al. (eds) Russia Enters the Twentieth Century, 1894±1917. New York: Schoken Books, 1971. 352 pp. A collection of articles focusing on the problems posed for late imperial Russia as a consequence of its economic and social modernization.

995 Levin, A. The Second Duma: A Study of the Social Democratic Party and the Russian Constitutional Experiment. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1940. ix + 414 pp. Concentrating upon the role of the Mensheviks, in this outstanding monograph the author undertakes an intensive examination of the election, organization and activities of the Second Duma.

A brief but highly influential piece from the deterministic viewpoint, which argues that the collapse of Imperial Russia stemmed less from the personal shortcomings of Nicholas II than from the dynasty's failure to establish a parliamentary democracy (however limited) when the chances were on offer in the 1860s and 1890s. The author also condemns the reÂgime's `irresponsible policy' of Great Russian nationalism which, he holds, led it both to internal repressions of the minority peoples and to external entanglements in the Balkans which were

New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1989. xxii + 407 pp. A study of the ruling eÂlite under Nicholas II which examines the social background and character of the membership of the State Council during the last years of tsarism. Based upon previously unseen archival sources from Russia and the West, the volume provides an important analysis of the pre-revolutionary Russian eÂlite in crisis and of its attempts to salvage the old reÂgime.

1001 McKean, R. B. The Russian Constitutional Monarchy, 1907±1917. London: Historical Association Pamphlets (General Series, No. 91), 1977. 47 pp. A compact and erudite analysis of political and social tensions in the period 1907 to 1914, together with an account of the impact of the First World War upon the politics and economy of the old reÂgime. A substantially revised edition has recently been published as McKean, R. B. Between the Revolutions: Russia 1905 to 1917. London: Historical Association, 1998. 49 pp. 1002 McKean, R. B. `Constitutional Russia', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 9 (1996), No. 1, pp. 33±42. In this thoughtful essay the author reviews the thirty years of Western historiography of the period 1906 to 1914, since the publication of Leopold Haimson's inspirational articles on social stability [986]. Discussing matters neglected by Haimson ± the social foundations of the constitutional reÂgime and the question of the emergence of civil society ± he finds that Haimson's pessimism regarding the chances of liberal constitutionalism taking hold in Russia has largely been supported by recent scholarship.

998 Lieven, D. C. B. Russia and the Origins of the First World War. New York: St Martin's Press, 1983. 213 pp. Utilizing archival sources from Moscow and Leningrad, as well as Russian-language collections in the West and French, British and AustroHungarian materials, the author offers a clear and succinct account of Russian foreign policy in the prewar decades. Lieven pays due attention to internal influences on foreign policy (pressure groups, economic developments, public opinion and the attitude of the tsar, his court and his ministers), but argues that what determined Russia's policy in 1914 was the widespread belief that Russia could not abdicate her place as a Great Power. 999 Lincoln, W. B. In War's Dark Shadow: The Russians before the Great War. New York: The Dial Press, 1983. 557 pp. A detailed, dramatic and brilliantly written portrait of Russian politics and society in the period 1891 to 1914, based upon a massive trawl of published sources, this volume provides an excellent introduction to the subject.

1003 McKean, R. B. `The Constitutional Monarchy in Russia, 1906±1917', in I. D. Thatcher (ed.) Regime and Society in Russia. London: Macmillan, 1999, pp. 44±63. A brief but convincing depiction of the fragility of the constitutional monarchy, focusing upon its lack of a solid social foundation and its weakly developed links with civil society. The author concludes that it was the reÂgime's perceived need to maintain Russia's Great Power status which led it to plunge a poorly prepared army into a disastrous war.

1000 McDonald, D. M. United Government and Foreign Policy in Russia, 1900±1914. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1992. 276 pp. An analysis of pre-war Russian foreign policy, noting how the lessons of 1904 to 1905 ± that foreign complications threaten internal order ± led to the reform of the Council of Ministers with the intent of

1011 Mosse, W. E. Perestroika under the Tsars. London: I. B. Tauris, 1992. xii + 298 pp. A reliable, general and introductory study, focusing upon the programmes of economic and political reform attempted under the last three tsars.

1005 Manning, R. T. The Crisis of the Old Order in Russia: Gentry and Government. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1982. xv + 555 pp. Based upon her reading of an impressive mass of materials relating to zemstvo and gentry assemblies of the two decades before the First World War, the author argues that in asserting its political mastery over the state bureaucracy (in particular by forcing the June 1907 system upon the reÂgime), Russia's gentry helped to seal its own fate.

1012 Rogger, H. Russia in the Age of Modernization and Revolution, 1881±1917. London: Longman, 1983. viii + 323 pp. Intended for a student and non-specialist readership, and focusing upon the relationship between state and society in late Imperial Russia, this volume provides an excellent introduction to the period. See also Rogger, H. `Russia in 1914', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 1 (1966), No. 4, pp. 95±119.

1006 Mavor, J. An Economic History of Russia, 2 vols. London: J. M. Dent & Sons, 1925. 614 + 630 pp. This is the second, enlarged and revised edition of a work originally published in 1914 on the basis of the author's reading of tsarist-era statistics and materials. Disappointingly, its survey of developments from the late eighteenth century onward peters out badly after 1905.

1013 Scherer, H. Der Aufbruch aus Mangelgesellschaft. Die Industrialisierung Russlands unter dem Zarismus (1960 bis 1914). Giessen: Focus, 1985. 350 pp. Although the author of this volume, in an attempt to establish that the tsarist reÂgime consistently discouraged capitalist modes of production, presents dozens of statistical tables and citations from secondary works, it is to be regretted that none of the latter are Russian. Moreover the impact of the argument is weakened by Scherer's crude and undiscerning use of Marxist categories and his unsupported theme that the failure of industrialization under the imperial system, compared to the success of that under the Soviets, proves that `a temporary separation from the imperialist economic sphere ensures an improvement in the national productive system'.

1007 Mendel, A. `On Interpreting the Fate of Imperial Russia', in T. G. Stavrou (ed.) Russia under the Last Tsar. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1969. pp. 13±41. A concise and thoughtful review of `pessimistic' and `optimistic' views of Imperial Russia's chances of developing along liberal and constitutional lines. The author tends to favour the latter approach, but warns that accepting such `patterns of coordinates' narrows the range of historical endeavour. 1008 Menning, B. W. Bayonets before Bullets: The Imperial Russian Army, 1860±1914. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1992. x + 334 pp. A lucidly written, comprehensive institutional and operational history of the Russian Army in the last years of tsarism.

1009 Meyendorff, Baron A. F. The Background of the Russian Revolution. New York: Holt, 1929. xix + 193 pp. A rambling, but frequently stimulating discussion, still valuable for its bibliographical references. The author, a former vice-president of the State Duma, argues that tsardom fell in an anti-war protest, and that the Provisional Government's attempts at reform were doomed.

1015 Stavrou, T. G. (ed.) Russia under the Last Tsar. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1969. 265 pp. The eight essays in this volume, which, although somewhat dated, remains readable, characterize the political, social, economic and cultural development of turn-of-the-century Russia.

Studies (General and Miscellaneous) . 1028 A well-documented, if at times slightly simplistic, discussion of Ignat'ev's attempts in 1915 and 1916 to persuade Nicholas II `to adopt a course of action which might have prevented the revolution of 1917 and thus save the monarchy'.

Reforming Rural Russia, 1855± 1914. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1990. xviii + 347 pp. An informative account of tsarism's failure to adapt its rural institutions in the aftermath of the emancipation, arguing that reformers were time and again defeated by ministers' and nobles' defence of the outmoded estates system (soslovie). The focus of the work is on the years 1894 to 1914, regarding which Wcislo provides the most thorough and lucid account available of reform efforts under Nicholas II.

Brussels: EÂditions de la Librairie encyclopeÂdique, 1976. 517 pp. The sole English-language study devoted to the Fundamental Laws of the Russian Empire, arguing that the constitution, although seriously limited, was not the `sham' which Max Weber had famously dubbed it. 1018 de Taube, Baron M. La Politique russe d'avantguerre et la fin de l'Empire des Tsars. Paris: E. Leroux, 1928. viii + 412 pp. A lengthy early survey of the collapse of tsarism by a well-connected observer of the events described.

1019 Troyat, H. Daily Life in Russia: Under the Last Tsar (transl. by M. Barnes). New York: Macmillan, 1962. 242 pp. Drawing upon his own memoirs and those of his parents, as well as published accounts, the author of this impressionistic picture of the totality of Russian life during the early years of the twentieth century utilizes the literary device of an imagined British traveller visiting Russia for the first time in 1903.

1026 Wolters, M. Aussenpolitische Fragen vor der vierten Duma. Ein Beitrag zur Geschichte des russischen Parteiwesens in der konstitutionellen Monarchie, insbesondere der Stellung zur Aussenpolitik waÈhrend des ersten Weltkrieges. Hamburg: Helmut Buske Verlag, 1969. 253 pp. Addressing herself to two basic questions ± which groups of Russians were interested in participating in the politics of the Duma, and to what extent the Duma played the role ascribed to it in the October Manifesto ± the author charts debates on foreign policy from December 1912 to March 1917, without ever really answering those questions. Nevertheless, the volume does throw some light upon the political origins of the February Revolution and is useful for its presentation of thirty-seven pages of tables, maps, diagrams, etc. relating to the political parties in the Duma, and for its extensive annotated bibliography.

1020 Walkin, B. D. `Government Controls over the Press in Russia, 1905±1914', Russian Review Vol. 13 (1954), pp. 203±209. The author of this piece concludes that, despite government controls, by 1914 `the Russians had acquired a relatively free press, high in quality, and . . . not substantially different in its freedom of criticism from the Western press'. 1021 Walkin, B. D. The Rise of Democracy in PreRevolutionary Russia: Political and Social Institutions under the Last Three Tsars. London: Thames and Hudson, 1963, 320 pp. An unconvincing and one-sidedly pro-tsarist account of the period of the constitutional monarchy. The author concludes that Russia was in a gradual process of democratic transformation prior to 1917.

A commendable attempt to chart the collapse of the grain market during the war years and to untangle the complex bureaucratic edifices and regulations through which the Imperial and Provisional governments attempted to control food procurement and distribution. The author finds that, lacking internal unity, adequate institutions and the acquiescence of the bulk of the population, `by 1917 the campaign had degenerated into one little short of indiscriminate seizure'.

The Russian Struggle for Power, 1914±1917: A Study of Russian Foreign Policy in the First World War. New York: Philosophical Library, 1956. xv + 553 pp. A straightforward summary of the printed Russian materials available at the time of its publication, this work is now badly dated. See also Smith, C. J. `Great Britain and the 1914±1915 Straits Agreement with Russia: The British Promise of November 1917', American Historical Review Vol. 70 (1964±1965), No. 4, pp. 1015±1034. 1060 Smith, J. T. `The Influence of Russian Military CommuniqueÂs on Public Opinion during the First World War', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 11 (1998), No. 2, pp. 32±53. Offering some comparisons with the more effective propaganda of Britain during the First World War, the author examines reports from the stavka which appeared in newspapers and billboards in 1915 and 1916, concluding that the generals mishandled the release of information, thereby badly damaging civilian morale. 1061 Stanziani, A. `SpeÂcialistes, bureaucrats et paysans: les approvisionnements agricoles pendant la PremieÁre Guerre Mondiale, 1914±1917', Cahiers du monde russe Vol. 36 (1995), Nos 1±2, pp. 71±94. An analysis of the function and evolution of the main administrative organizations in charge of the wartime economy ± the General Conference of the Ministry of Agriculture, the economic bureaux of the zemstvos, town councils, cooperatives, etc. ± together with some comment on the social impact in the Russian villages of wartime conditions (mobilization, relations between town and country, etc.).

1058 Siegelbaum, L. H. The Politics of Industrial Mobilization in Russia, 1914±1917: A Study of the War Industries Committees. London: Macmillan, 1983. xix + 312 pp. A deeply researched and lucidly written account, throwing light upon the military and political establishments' suspicions of independent initiative, while demonstrating the Russian bourgeoisie's inability to establish itself as a credible alternative to the tsarist state. Aspects of the work were published earlier as articles: Siegelbaum, L. H. `Russian Industrialists in the First World War: The Failure of the National Bourgeoisie', Slavic and Soviet Series (Tel Aviv) Vol. 2 (1977), No. 1, pp. 31±48; Siegelbaum, L.

1062 Stone, N. The Eastern Front, 1914±1917. London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1975. 348 pp. Drawing upon published Soviet sources and Austrian archives, the author presents an argument that Russia's failings in the war were not due to her economic backwardness or material shortages (which were exaggerated by generals to cover up their own incompetence), but rather were a consequence of a `crisis of growth' which caused inflation, poverty, supply problems and administrative disorder in the army. The text, though always lively, sways disconcertingly between minute and expert dissection of military actions and sweeping judgements (not all of them sustainable) on social and political affairs. 107

(comps) Russian Autocrats from Ivan the Great to the Fall of the Romanov Dynasty: An Annotated Bibliography of English-Language Sources. London: The Scarecrow Press Inc., 1987. xxxv + 512 pp. The final sections of this lengthy, comprehensive and immeasurably useful bibliography, listing books and articles, scholarly works and popular ephemera, contain references to works relating to diverse aspects of the reign and downfall of Nicholas II. Included are items which, the editors admit, are `generally of limited value to scholars and tend to mislead non-specialists'.

Photographs for the Tsar: The Pioneering Color Photography of Sergei Mikhailovich Produkin-Gorskii, Commissioned by Tsar Nicholas II. New York: Dial Press, 1980. xxiv + 239 pp. A truly remarkable collection of colour photographs from the period 1909 to 1915. Following a commission from the tsar himself, Gorskii travelled extensively throughout the Empire, from Karelia to the Urals and from the Ukraine to Central Asia and the Caucasus. His stated aim (ably achieved) was to record the beauty of Imperial Russia.

Documents, Diaries and Correspondence 1070 Alexandra, Consort of Nicholas II, Emperor of Russia Letters of the Tsaritsa to the Tsar, 1914±1916 (introd. by B. Pares). London: Duckworth, 1923. 478 pp. The letters presented in this volume, which run from 27 April 1914 to 17 December 1916, are an immensely valuable source on the royal couple's mutually devoted relationship and also one which details the often misguided advice Alexandra offered the tsar. The pair emerge from this correspondence as completely isolated from the Russian nation and as almost incredibly ignorant of their country's problems.

1065 Fitzlyon, K. and Browning, T. Before the Revolution: A View of Russia under the Last Tsar.

London: Jonathan Cape, 1980. xix + 346 pp. Includes 475 black-and-white photographs, most of them never before published, arranged in the form of an extended journey from St Petersburg to Moscow, through Siberia and then back through Central Asia, the Caucasus and the Baltic provinces.

1072 Fuhrmann, J. T. (ed.) The Complete Wartime Correspondence of Tsar Nicholas II and the Empress Alexandra, April 1914±March 1917. Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1998. 773 pp. Included in this volume are all the known written communications between Nicholas and his wife during the war years. The tsar's letters and telegrams include many observations on military affairs and the war effort; Alexandra's offer commentary on her experiences as a volunteer nurse as well as on political and governmental affairs in Petrograd and the daily life of the royal family.

New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. lx + 224 pp. A handsomely produced volume, edited with great scholarly care, presenting the full text of the recently declassified `daybook' of Alexandra, covering the period 2 January to 16 July 1918. The entries, although generally mundane rather than emotional or reflective and providing very little of true historical interest, do convey great pathos and give some insight into the character of the Empress.

Tsar to the Tsaritsa, 1914±1917 (transl. by A. L. Hynes; ed. by C. E. Vulliamy; introd. by C. T. Haberg Wright). London: John Lane, 1929. xv + 324 pp. As this work is a translation back into English of the Russian text translated from the original English by the Soviet historian M. N. Pokrovskii, this collection of letters and telegrams from 20 June 1914 to 7 March 1917 reproduces the substance but not the actual words of Nicholas's often pathetic communications with his wife. Nevertheless, it is a valuable source, not least as a consequence of its excellent notes.

Hynes; introd. by C. T. Hagberg Wright). London: Geoffrey Bles, 1929. pp. 21±56. Includes a selection of police surveillance reports, largely relating to Rasputin's disreputable financial dealings, his carousing and his sexual adventures in the period 1 January 1915 to 10 February 1916.

A selection of private correspondence between members of the Yusupov family from the period November 1916 to April 1917, chiefly of interest as evidence of the growing dissatisfaction of M. V. Rodzianko and of the aristocracy with the conduct of the royal couple, Rasputin and ministers such as A. D. Protopopov.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 1080 Alexander, Grand Duke of Russia Once a Grand Duke. London: Cassell & Co., 1932. 384 pp. In this memoir of his life to 1920, the brother-inlaw of Nicholas II portrays the tsar as an emotional, weak-willed individual, unable to cope with every crisis of his reÂgime from the 1905 Revolution through the rise of Rasputin to the First World War and the February Revolution. For details of the author's life after 1920 see Alexander, Grand Duke Twilight of Royalty. New York: Ray Long & Richard R. Smith Inc., 1932. 224 pp.; and Alexander, Grand Duke Always a Grand Duke.

London: The Bodley Head, 1964. 144 pp. Based upon private correspondence and family reminiscences, the final chapters of this brief adoring biography tell of the Grand Duchess's experiences in Moscow during 1917, of her arrest in the spring of 1918 and imprisonment at Alapaevsk in the Urals and of her execution there (together with her husband and other members of the royal family) in July 1918.

Paris: Payot, 1925. 223 pp. The complete diary of the tsar, from 1 July 1914 to 30 June 1918. Appended is a brief journal, for the period 1 January to 4 May 1918, which was written by an anonymous member of the royal household at Tobol'sk.

1085 Chernavin, T. `The Home of the Last Tsar: As Material for a Study of Character', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 17 (1939), pp. 659±667. A fascinating first-hand account of the domestic arrangements of the royal couple and the fittings and furnishings with which they chose to surround themselves in their private wing of the Alexander Palace at Tsarskoe Selo. The author finds that Nicholas and Alexandra's aesthetic taste `was on the level of that of a rich bourgeois who crammed their rooms with anything that was offered them by obliging purveyors'.

1092 Knox, A. `The Grand Duke Nicholas', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 7 (1928±1929), pp. 535±539. An admiring obituary of the tsar's uncle, commander-in-chief of Russia's army in the first year of the war, by the most senior British officer serving in Russia at that time. 1093 Kokovtsov, Count V.

Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1935. xx + 615 pp. The final chapters of this edition of the memoirs of Russia's Chairman of the Council of Ministers from 1911 to 1914, which is heavily and very usefully annotated, recount his experiences of 1917 (when he was arrested and subsequently released during the February Revolution and saw the Provisional Government conduct an investigation into his conduct as Prime Minister), his life at Kislovodsk in the North Caucasus from 1917 to 1918, his arrest by the Cheka and internment at Petrograd in June 1918, and his eventual release and escape via Finland.

1086 Dehn, L. The Real Tsaritsa.

1094 Majolier, N. Step-Daughter of Imperial Russia. London: Stanley Paul, 1940. 259 pp. The chatty, over-ambitious autobiography of the stepdaughter of the Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich. The volume includes her impressions of the revolution up to the end of 1918, with a section on the period February to October 1917 mysteriously entitled `Menshevik Russia', and can be recommended as a good read for anyone in danger of losing his or her sense of just how out of touch and doomed the old reÂgime ultimately was.

1088 Gourko, V. I. The Tzar and Tzaritsa. London: Stanley Paul, 1929. 288 pp. 1089 Hanbury-Williams, Sir John The Emperor Nicholas II as I Knew Him. London: A. L.

A favourable commentary on the character of Nicholas II, which suggests that the tsar's unpopularity was due solely to the influence of his wife, the authoress's cousin. See also Marie, Queen of Roumania The Story of My Life, Vol. 3. London: Cassell, 1935. 463 pp.

London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1996. xvii + 667 pp. The bulk of this rather pointless book is made up of long-published and still easily available documents, including Nicholas and Alexandra's correspondence from 1914 to 1917, the recollections of the Grand Duchess Olga, the memoirs of Rasputin's murderer, Prince Felix Yusupov, and the memoirs of the last French Ambassador to Imperial Russia, Maurice PaleÂologue.

1103 Purishkevich, V. How I Killed Rasputin (ed. and introd. by M. E. Shaw; transl. by B. Costello). New York: Coward, McCann and Geoghegan, 1982. 368 pp. The best edition of a work which appeared in many forms after its initial publication in 1918 ± see for example PourishkeÂvitch, V. `Comment j'ai tueÂ Raspoutine', Revue de Paris Vol. 30 (1923), No. 20 ± this volume includes the assassin's account of Rasputin's death, the original introduction by Vasilii Maklakov (which questions some of the details of the narrative) and a good introduction offering biographical information on Purishkevich.

1104 Le Queux, W. The Secret Life of the ExTsaritza: Amazing Disclosures by Her Maid-ofHonour and Confidante, the Baroness Zeneide Tzankoff. London: Oldham, Ltd., 1918. 211 pp. A portrait of Alexandra based upon the recollections of one of her entourage, Baroness Kamenskii, which argues that the Empress so promoted the interests of Germany during the First World War that she could only properly be regarded as having been an agent of the Kaiser.

London: John Lane, 1918. 256 pp. Memoirs of a lady-in-waiting to Alexandra from 1894 until the royal family's exile to Siberia in 1917. 1100 `Nadejda' Once I Had a Home: The Diary and Narrative of Nadejda, Lady of Honour to Their Imperial Majesties the Late Empress Alexandra Feodorovna and the Empress Maria Feodorovna of Russia. London: Duckworth & Co., 1926. 320 pp. These memoirs deal, for the most part, with the period of the Dowager Empress's life in the Crimea from October 1917 until the evacuation of the spring of 1920.

Paris: L'EÂdition FrancËaise, 1921. 252 pp. This sensationalist account claims to have been written on the basis of the diaries of Rasputin's private secretary, Feodor Raevskii. See also Le Queux, W. Rasputin, the Rascal Monk, Disclosing the Secret Scandal of the Betrayal of Russia by the Mock-Monk `Grichka' and the Consequent Ruin of the Romanoffs (with Official Documents Revealed and Recorded for the First Time).

1110 Rodzianko, M. V. The Reign of Rasputin: An Empire's Collapse (transl. by C. Zvegintzoff; introd. by B. Pares; new introd. by D. R. Jones). Gulf Breeze, FL: Academic International Press, 1973. 270 pp. A reprint of the 1927 publication (London: A. M. Philpot, 1927) by the last president of the Duma. The work is often pedestrian and contains few revelations of real importance, but constitutes one of the most damning portraits of the character and influence of Rasputin, who, the author claims, was the conduit through which pro-German elements in Russian society exerted control over military affairs. David Jones's scholarly introduction presents a critique of Rodzianko's thesis.

1107 Radziwill, Princess Catherine Nicholas II: The Last of the Tsars. London: Cassell & Co., 1931. 306 pp. A portrait based on Nicholas's diaries and letters which paints a generally favourable picture of the tsar and a rather dim one of his wife and coterie. A later pseudononymous work by the princess adds little to this account ± see `M. Essad-Bey' Nicholas II: Prisoner of the Purple (transl. P. M. Branden and E. Branden). London: Hutchinson & Co., 1936. 292 pp. The authoress had earlier published her own personal recollections under another assumed name ± see Vassili, Count Paul Behind the Veil at the Russian Court. New York: John Lane Company, 1914. 408 pp.; and Vassili, Count Paul Confessions of the Czarina. New York: Harper and Brothers, 1918 ± in which she was rather less sympathetic to the tsar and even more damning of `that superstitious, intriguing and half-demented woman', Alexandra, whom she had also characterized in an earlier work: Radziwill, Princess Catherine The Intimate Life of the Last Tsarina. London: Cassell & Co., 1929. 340 pp. See also Radziwill, Princess C. The Firebrand of Bolshevism: The True Story of the Bolsheviki and the Forces That Directed Them.

1111 A Russian The Fall of the Romanoffs (introd. by A. Wood). Cambridge: Ian Faulkner, 1992. xiii + 202 pp. A new edition of a colourful memoir originally published in 1918 (but evidently written in mid-1917). The author, a rabid Germanophobe who was clearly an aristocrat with close connections to the imperial court, reveals a not unsurprising confusion when faced with the tumult of events which he records, while alleging that `the responsibility for the wreck of the Russian monarchy lies entirely with the Empress Alexandra Feodorovna'. See also A Russian Russian Court Memoirs, 1914±1916 (introd. by A. Wood). Cambridge: Ian Faulkner, 1992. 199 pp. 1112 Sablin, E. `The Empress Maria Feodorovna', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 7 (1928± 1929), pp. 410±414. A hagiographic obituary of Nicholas II's mother by the former Counsellor of the Russian Embassy in London.

1108 Rasputin, Marie The Real Rasputin (transl. by A. Chambers). London: John Long, 1929. 223 pp. In this work Rasputin's daughter seeks to portray her father as a compassionate, generous and sincere man, one disinterested in politics and one who, consequently, could in no way be blamed for the collapse of the Romanov dynasty. This theme the author developed in a later publication: Rasputin, Marie My Father. London: Cassell & Co., 1934. 157 pp. The latter work contains a reproduction of Rasputin's only published work, My Thoughts and Recollections. See also Rasputin, M. and Barham, P.

Some brief reminiscences of Nicholas and his views on foreign affairs by the noted Russian diplomat. For Charykov the tsar was the `bestintentioned, gentle, patriotic, unselfish and most unfortunate of Russians'.

1121 Youssoupoff, Prince Felix Rasputin: His Malignant Influence and His Assassination (transl. by O. Rayner). London: Jonathan Cape, 1927. 256 pp. In this famous volume the leading participant in the killing of Rasputin gives a detailed account of his part in the conspiracy, pausing only to excoriate Anna Vyrubova, whom he blamed for originally ingratiating Rasputin with the royal couple. See also Youssoupoff (Prince) `La fin de Raspoutine', Revue de Paris Vol. 34 (1927), Nos 19±22; Youssoupoff, Prince Felix Avant l'exil, 1887±1919.

1117 Viroubova, A. A. Memoirs of the Russian Court. London: Macmillan, 1923. 399 pp. An anecdotal hagiography by the much vilified, long-time confidante of Alexandra, who was with the royal family up to October 1917 and corresponded with them until May 1918. More interesting is the lengthy appendix in which V. M. Roudneff discusses Vyrubova's role in the Rasputin affair. The `secret diary' later published by the Soviets under Vyrubova's name was denounced by her as a forgery: Viroubova, A. Journal secret d'Anna Viroubova (1909±1917) (transl. by M. Vaniex). Paris: Payot, 1928. 384 pp. 1118 Volkov, A. Souvenirs d'Alexis Volkov, valet de chambre de la tsarine Alexandra Feodorovna 1910± 1918 (pref. by Grand Duchess Marie of Russia). Paris: Payot, 1928. 198 pp. This volume is chiefly of note for its extensive first-hand coverage of the royal family's exile to Tobol'sk and of the transfer of Alexei and three of his sisters to Ekaterinburg. Volkov was subsequently separated from the family and was imprisoned at Perm, narrowly escaping execution when he fled from an armed escort on 4 September 1918.

1119 Vorres, I. (ed.) The Last Grand Duchess: The Memoirs of Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna, 1 June 1882±24 November 1960. New York: Scribner, 1965. ix + 264 pp. An authorized memoir by the last surviving sister of Nicholas II, drawn largely from conversations with her, and much of it in her own words. The work, states the Grand Duchess, was designed to `vindicate my family', but it does display a conscious effort at accuracy and a certain objectivity ± for example, the Grand Duchess admits the weaknesses and inadequacies of Nicholas and blames her father, Alexander III, for not giving the future tsar a proper education and a grounding in statecraft.

1124 Almedingen, E. M. The Empress Alexandra, 1872±1918: A Study. London: Hutchinson, 1961. 244 pp. A sympathetic but rather superficial narrative of the Empress's life, which concludes with only very brief coverage of the revolution and the imprisonment, exile and execution of the royal family. 1125 Anan'ich, B. V. and Ganelin, R. S. `Nicholas II', Russian Studies in History Vol. 34 (1995±1996), No. 3, pp. 68±95. Drawing upon numerous first-hand accounts and upon the tsar's own journals, the authors, two distinguished Russian experts on the late imperial reÂgime, provide a succinct and dispassionate reading of Nicholas II's years in office, emphasizing the impact of conflicts between members of the Romanov clan on the eve of the February Revolution.

1120 Woronoff, O. Upheaval (introd. by B. Tarkington). London: Hutchinson, 1932. 226 pp. These memoirs, by the wife of an officer on the imperial yacht and daughter of Count Kleinmichel who was in close contact with the Imperial family, are mainly concerned with the period 1914 to 1920. 113

Paris: Albin Michel, 1917. 348 pp. An account of the last years of imperial rule (from the reign of Alexander III onwards) which was written shortly after the February Revolution. The author places Rasputin firmly at the centre of the collapse of the Romanov dynasty.

1139 Ferro, M. Nicholas II, Last of the Tsars (transl. by B. Pearce). Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1991. 305 pp. A well-written, popular, yet impeccably scholarly biography, based in part upon materials from the Russian archives. The volume concludes with a thoughtful chapter relating to myths surrounding the execution of the Romanovs.

1140 Frankland, N. Imperial Tragedy: Nicholas II, Last of the Tsars. New York: Coward-McCann, 1961. 193 pp. A popular history, concentrating on the dramatic and personal, rather than the political. Half the book is devoted to the period February 1917 to July 1918.

1131 Chavchavadze, D. The Grand Dukes. New York: Atlantic International Publications, 1990. 283 pp. A collection of sympathetic biographical portraits of the Romanov grand dukes from 1797 to 1917. The author was a direct descendant of the family.

1141 Fuhrmann, J. T. Rasputin: A Life. New York: Praeger, 1990. x + 276 pp. An excellent popular history, ranking high among the best works on its subject, providing a sober analysis (from a myriad of sources) laced with scandal and gossip. Some of the strongest sections of the volume are devoted to explaining Rasputin's religious views and the manner in which (as well as the extent to which) he was able to influence government policy during the First World War.

1132 Crawford, R. and Crawford, D. Michael and Natasha: The Life and Love of the Last Tsar of Russia.

1142 FuÈloÈp-Miller, R. Der heilige Teufel. Rasputin und die Frauen. Berlin: Paul Zsolnay Verlag, 1927. 440 pp. Although dated, this remains a detailed and interesting attempt at a full biography of Rasputin. The author was one of Germany's foremost experts on Russia.

1134 Dansette, A. `Raspoutine le mal connu', Revue de Paris Vol. 74 (1967), No. 4, pp. 116±122. 1135 Dresler, A. Rasputin, der heimliche Zar. Munich: Funck, 1929. 222 pp. A sensationalist popular treatment of the Rasputin story.

1143 Gobron, G. Raspoutine et l'orgie russe. Paris: Louis Querelle, 1930. 255 pp. A badly dated sensationalist account of Rasputin's part in the collapse of the dynasty.

1136 de Enden, M. Rasputine et le creÂpuscule de la monarchie en Russie. Paris: Fayard, 1991. 367 pp. A serious (albeit failed) attempt to disentangle the myths from the facts surrounding Rasputin and his role in the collapse of tsardom, based upon a broad range of published sources.

1144 Halliday, E. M. `Rasputin Reconsidered', Horizon Vol. 9 (1967), No. 4, pp. 80±87. A popular and sensationalist retelling of the 114

The Romanovs, Rasputin and the Russian Court (General) . 1157 Rasputin story, claiming that he was too wellmeaning and was blameless in the collapse of tsarism.

In this fascinating piece the author traces the origins of legends surrounding Rasputin's mystical powers, unlimited political influence and near invincibility at the hands of his assassins to pamphlets, broadsides and books published during 1917 (and earlier) and evaluates the reasons for these legends' longevity.

1145 Jacoby, J. Le Tsar Nicolas II et la reÂvolution. Paris: Fayard, 1931. 384 pp. An unremarkable popular history of the revolution, concentrating upon the fall of the Romanovs and the characters, imprisonment and execution of the tsarist family. A final chapter examines the `legend' of survivors of the events of 18 July 1918.

1152 Liepman, H. The Mad Monk of Russia (transl. by E. Fitzgerald). New York: Rolton House, 1964. 264 pp. A well-written and entertaining popular history, but far from the scholarly study it purports to be and larded with errors of fact, translation and spelling as well as pages of invented dialogue.

1146 De Jonge, A. The Life and Times of Grigori Rasputin. New York: Coward, McCann and Geoghegan, 1982. 368 pp. A poorly researched account which, unusually, is cautiously sympathetic with regard to its main character (who is portrayed as a man of God corrupted by contact with high society). Ultimately, however, the author accepts that, by encouraging the influence of Alexandra and by supporting the ministerial candidacies of the likes of Khvostov and Protopopov, Rasputin made a significant contribution to the fall of the dynasty.

1153 Lieven, D. Nicholas II: Twilight of the Empire. New York: St Martin's Press, 1994. xii + 292 pp. Focusing upon the problems raised for Nicholas's regime by Russia's transition from an agricultural society (in which the tsar sought the social support of the aristocracy) to an industrial society (in which he would have to seek support from urban business and professional classes), this volume is notable for the author's recognition of the possibility of `alternatives' for Russian development right down to the abdication, and for its stress upon how Russia's international position challenged the person and institution of the tsar. Nicholas II emerges as a sympathetic, idealistic figure, whose downfall was a consequence not of his indecisiveness but of his isolation.

1147 Judas, E. Rasputin: Neither Devil Nor Saint. Los Angeles: Wetzel Pub. Co., 1942. 283 pp. An unusually sober treatment. The author was acquainted with Rasputin. 1148 Kasvinov, M. K. Russlands letzer Zar. Das Ende des Romanoffs. Berlin: Verlag der Nation, 1988. 493 pp.

1149 King, G. Last Empress: The Life and Times of Alexandra Feodorovna, Tsarina. London: Aurum Press, 1995. xvi + 431 pp. Based upon published English-language sources, this volume provides a relatively sober, popular biography of the Empress.

1155 Massie, R. K. Nicholas and Alexandra: An Intimate Account of the Last of the Romanovs, Family Events Leading to the 1917 Revolution and the Fall of Imperial Russia. New York: Athenaeum, 1967. 613 pp. A popular and generally sympathetic account which implies that Nicholas was well-meaning but illequipped by training, temperament and family circumstances to provide the leadership required by Russia at a time of crisis. The work is, however, overly preoccupied with the effects of the tsarevich's haemophilia and the influence of Rasputin. It is also overly dependent on translated sources and overly trusting of eÂmigreÂ accounts.

1150 King, G. The Murder of Rasputin: The Truth about Prince Felix Youssoupov and the Mad Monk Who Helped Bring down the Romanovs. London: Century, 1996. xiii + 306 pp. Yet another sensationalist popular account, notable for raising the question of whether Rasputin was lured to Yusupov's mansion on the night of his murder by the promise of a homosexual encounter with the prince.

1156 Minney, R. J. Rasputin. London: Cassell, 1972. xii + 234 pp. An unremarkable (if remarkably unsensational) account intended for a general readership.

Finding Alexandra's political interventions to have been `extraordinarily damaging' to Russia and to the Romanov dynasty, the author examines the reasons why she interfered in government ± the most important of which, claims von Reenen, were the Empress's desire to uphold autocracy and the influence of Rasputin.

1158 Myles, D. Rasputin: Satyr, Saint or Satan? New York: McGraw-Hill, 1990. A superficial treatment, based upon a narrow source base and prone to sensationalism. 1159 Oakley, J. Rasputin: Rascal Master. New York: St Martin's Press, 1989. 207 pp. An annoying and superficial treatment, of minimal interest to the historian. 1160 Oldenbourg, S. S. Last Tsar: Nicholas II, His Reign and His Russia, 4 vols. (transl. by L. I. Mihalap and P. J. Rollins; ed. by P. J. Rollins). Gulf Breeze, FL: International Press, 1975±1978. 228 + 315 + 224 + 356 pp. A conservative Russian historian's comprehensive and favourable account of Nicholas II's reign, refuting the view of the tsar as being indecisive and claiming that his attempts to steer Russia along a path of careful reform were scuppered by the activities of unpatriotic and seditious members of the intelligentsia.

1175 Walsh, E. A. `The Fall of the Russian Empire: The Part Played by a Woman', Atlantic Monthly Vol. 141 (1928), pp. 46±59. A rambling account of the causes of the February Revolution that lays blame on Alexandra for permitting Rasputin such influence at court, although the author is certain that she `cannot be accused of improper relations with the greasy muzhik'.

1180 Fedor Alexandrovich, Kniaz [Prince] Romanov: Fragments de vie. Paris: Jacques Ferrand, 1998. 98 pp. Includes 150 photographs of the Grand Duke Aleksandr Mikhailovich and his family from the years 1914 to 1919. 1181 Grabbe, P. and Grabbe, B.

The authors also utilize Grabbe's diary to provide a short introduction and captions to the photographs.

1176 Warth, R. D. Nicholas II: The Life and Reign of Russia's Last Monarch. Westport, CT: Praeger, 1997. vii + 360 pp. A scholarly and well-written chronological narrative of Nicholas's life, which makes use of Russian and other archival materials and emphasizes the political aspects of his reign. Warth portrays the last tsar as a kind and gentle man `by no means devoid of natural intelligence, a fair measure of common sense, and some of the attractive features of aristocratic heritage', but contends that he was poorly educated, obtuse, an inept statesman and a stubborn upholder of the autocratic tradition. See also Warth, R. D. `Before Rasputin: Piety and Occult at the Court of Nicholas II', Historian Vol. 47 (1985), No. 3, pp. 323±337.

1177 Wilson, C. Rasputin and the Fall of the House of Romanov. New York: Farrar Strauss, 1964. ix + 240 pp. A work that seeks to debunk the myth of Rasputin, concluding that he was a devoutly religious man, in whom `messianic self-belief [was] the mainspring, not sexual voracity or a lust for power'.

Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1981, pp. 31±40. A brief survey which concentrates upon Alexandra's devotion to her haemophiliac son and upon the manner in which her determination to guarantee his succession to the throne led her to insist that Nicholas should make no concessions to public opinion.

New York: Fleming H. Revell Co., 1931. 335 pp. The son of Nicholas II's personal physician (who was murdered at Ekaterinburg) presents a highly favourable portrait of the tsar and his family in this account of their arrest, imprisonment and execution. The author gives some credence to the theory that Anastasia escaped death at Ekaterinburg to emerge as Anna Anderson and disputes the claims of Madame Tchaikovsky to be the Grand Duchess.

W. `How the Czar Was Doomed to Death: An Authentic Document Written by His Major-Domo', Current History Vol. 9 (1919), No. 2, pp. 338±343. The author, a correspondent of the New York Times, visited Ekaterinburg at the end of 1918 to investigate the execution of the royal family. Herein he presents an extraordinary document ± allegedly an account by the tsar's servant ± which suggests that Nicholas was shot for attempting to intrigue with General Denikin, General Dutov and other antiBolshevik leaders.

1194 Brummer, GeÂneÂral C. `Les derniers jours du Grand Duc Nicholas Mikhailovitch', Revue des deux mondes (15 November 1921).

1195 Bulygin, P. The Murder of the Romanovs (transl. by G. Kerensky; introd. by Sir B. Pares; fwd. by A. F. Kerensky). London: Hutchinson, 1935. 286 pp. This volume consists of two separate works: Kerensky, A. `The Road to the Tragedy' (pp. 25± 153), a general account of the imprisonment of the Romanovs at Tsarskoe Selo, together with the author's views on the fall of the dynasty; and Bulygin, P. `The Sorrowful Quest' (pp. 154±279), a first-hand account by a member of the Imperial Guard who was at Ekaterinburg in 1918 and who played a key role in attempts to rescue the Romanovs and in the Sokolov investigation. Bulygin accepts Sokolov's conclusion that the entire family perished together on 18 July 1918. See also Bulygin, P. `In Prison at Ekaterinburg: An Account of an Attempt to Rescue the Imperial Family', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 7 (1928), No. 19, pp. 55±66.

London: Penguin, 1959. 282 pp. Anna Anderson's `autobiography' in which she asserts her identity as Anastasia, accompanied by notes which attempt to fit the often improbable details of her story into a historically accurate context. 1191 Bechofer Roberts, C. E. `The Tsar's Murder and the Soviet Government's Guilt', Nineteenth Century No. 96 (1924), pp. 116±122. Utilizing the Sokolov papers, the author alleges that Sverdlov (and, by implication, the Soviet government) was party to the decision to execute the Romanovs.

1196 Buxhoeveden, Baroness Sophie Left Behind: Fourteen Months in Siberia during the Revolution (December 1917±February 1919).

How We Tried to Save the Tsaritsa (transl. by F. S. Flint and D. F. Tait). London: G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1929. 288 pp. An account of how the author, an officer in the Empress's Own Crimean Cavalry Regiment, failed in efforts to rescue the Romanovs from Tsarskoe Selo and from Tobol'sk, before attempting to enlist the support of Alexandra's brother, the Duke of Hesse, for another attempt at liberating the royal family. The last effort proved fruitless when the royal family was executed. See also Markow, S. V. Einsame Herrscher. Leben und Sterben der letzen Romanow. Munich: Tyrolia, 1937. 243 pp.

1197 Bykov, P. M. The Last Days of Tsar Nicholas (transl. and pref. by A. Rothstein). New York: International Publishers, 1934. 86 pp. Bykov, as chairman of the city soviet, had general charge of the Romanovs while they were imprisoned at Ekaterinburg. His account, which runs from the February Revolution to the capture of Ekaterinburg by the Czechs, concentrates upon the local Bolsheviks' foiling of various `counter-revolutionary' attempts to rescue the royal family and upon the circumstances which influenced the decision to execute them, in which regard he broadly corroborates Sokolov's conclusions. Rothstein's preface consists of a violent attack upon Nicholas's character and rule.

1213 Dassel, F. GrossfuÈrstin Anastasia Lebt! Berlin: Verlaghaus fuÈr Volksliteratur und Kunst, 1928. 187 pp. The author, who (after initial scepticism) endorsed Anna Anderson's claim to be Anastasia, was a former patient at the royal family's wartime hospital at Tsarskoe Selo and had been treated by the princesses.

1208 Wilton, R. The Last Days of the Romanovs: From 15th March 1917. London: Thornton Butterworth Ltd., 1920. 320 pp. This volume, which deals primarily with the period after the removal of the royal family to Tobol'sk, is formed of two parts: `Part 1 ± The Narrative' and `Part 2 ± The Deposition of EyeWitnesses'. The author, a noted Times correspondent, assisted the Sokolov investigation and claims that the veracity of its conclusions are beyond dispute. The second part consists of translations of a number of the depositions made to Sokolov.

The author of this fascinating article discusses a variety of the arguments made for dismissing Halliburton's 1934 interview with one of the Romanovs' executioners as a piece of pure fiction ± notably those made by Summers and Mangold [1237] and by Edvard Radzinsky [1232] ± and painstakingly compares the details of the execution given in a number of eyewitness accounts. Ostrowski concludes that the interview did take place and that `the information Ermakov gave Halliburton in 1934 provides reliable evidence for the assassination of the Romanov family and, up to a point, for the ultimate disposal of the bodies'.

Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1968. xiv + 188 pp. Listed in this volume are 1,239 items (including histories, memoirs, articles and ephemera), most of them in Russian, relating to individual regiments of the Russian Army.

1244 Boleslawski, R. (in collaboration with H. Woodward) The Way of a Lancer. London: Cassell & Co., 1932. 318 pp. The personal recollections of a Polish lancer serving in the Russian Army, which vividly (if, one suspects, somewhat fancifully) describe the breakdown of authority in the army in 1917 and the rise of the Red Army. See also Boleslawski, R. (in collaboration with H. Woodward) Lances Down: Between Fires in Moscow. London: Grayson & Grayson, 1933. 296 pp., which includes an account of the fighting in Moscow of October to November 1917 and of the running of the Moscow Art Theatre during that year.

The diary includes some interesting reflections upon the mutiny of the Petrograd Garrison in February 1917.

1246 Brussilov, General A. A. A Soldier's Notebook, 1914±1918. London: Macmillan, 1930. xi + 340 pp. A memoir confined almost entirely to military affairs by the Russian commander-in-chief of May to July 1917, who argues that by the spring of 1917 troops were refusing to obey orders on all fronts, making the failure of the June offensive a certainty and the collapse of the Provisional Government inevitable. 1247 Danilow, N. N. `From Officer Cadet to Refugee: Some Memories of Revolutionary Russia', New Zealand Slavonic Journal No. 1 (1976), pp. 1±11.

A volume which is rather more enlightening with regard to the years of the First World War than to 1917. Gourko was Chief of the Imperial General Staff (November 1916 to March 1917) and Commander-in-Chief of the Western Front (March to June 1917), before being arrested in the wake of the Kornilov affair and escaping to England on the eve of the October Revolution.

Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1975. xxii + 333 pp. An unabridged and fully annotated translation of the White leader's last, unfinished work (the original title referred to his career as a `Russian' officer), long recognized as an essential source on Russian prerevolutionary military history. The narrative, which provides a graphic insight into military life, unfortunately breaks off on the eve of the Brusilov offensive of 1916 (in which the author played a distinguished part).

1253 Kournakoff, S. Savage Squadrons. London: Harrap & Co., 1935. 360 pp. These memoirs of an officer of the Circassian Horse Regiment cover the years 1897 to 1917 and include valuable information on the break-up of the Russian Army. 1254 Leuchtenberg, Duc N. de `La deÂbaÃcle de l'ArmeÂe russe', Revue de Paris Vol. 28 (1921), No. 12, pp. 697±710. An account, very critical of the policies of the Provisional Government, of events at the front and at Mogilev to December 1917, by a former aide-decamp of Nicholas II.

1249 Denikine, A. I. The Russian Turmoil: Memoirs Military, Social and Political. London: Hutchinson, 1922. 344 pp. The bulk of this volume, by the influential general who in 1917 was Commander-in-Chief of the South-West Front and who later led the antiBolshevik movement in South Russia, deals with military and political events from February to September 1917 (at which point the author was jailed for his alleged part in the Kornilov affair). Denikin was a talented writer and an entertaining and informative memorist, making this volume one of the key sources on 1917.

1255 Liddell, R. S. On the Russian Front. London: Simpkin, Marshall, Hamilton, Kent, 1916. x + 278 pp. A rare and lively account of the Russian retreat from Poland by a Russian-speaking member of the 7th Group of the Polish Red Cross Volunteers, who claims to have been `the only English-speaking man in Warsaw at the time of its fall'. See also Liddell, R. S. Actions and Reactions in Russia. New York: Dutton, 1918. 227 pp., a superbly illustrated work in which the author records his disgust at the disorganization of the Russian rear in the period 1915 to 1917.

1250 Fedotoff-White, D. Survival through War and Revolution in Russia. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1939. 395 pp. An engaging and very valuable account of the period by a Russian naval officer (who later became a military historian). The volume includes the author's impressions of life in Petrograd and with the Black Sea Fleet in 1917 (in diary form), his experiences in Kolchak's forces in 1919, and his experiences of life under the Bolsheviks in Siberia and Moscow during the period 1920 to 1921.

1256 Littauer, V. S. Russian Hussar (fwd. by Sir R. Bruce Lockhart). London: J. A. Allen, 1965. 294 pp. A mostly unremarkable account of an officer's service with Russian cavalry units in the years 1911 to 1920.

London: Constable, 1964. 222 pp. An abridged version of Gorbatov's memoirs (originally published in Novyi mir in 1964), including accounts of his life as a private in the tsarist army and as a cavalryman in the Red Army during the civil war (during which time he saw service in battles against Denikin and the Poles).

London: Unwin, 1922. 256 pp. The very valuable memoirs of a general who was Chief of Staff to Kornilov and Brusilov in 1917 and who subsequently served as Minister of War to Denikin and as Wrangel's plenipotentiary to the Inter-Allied High Commission at Constantinople. 1258 McCormick, R.

The interesting, if self-glorifying, memoirs of the organizer and commander of detachments of volunteers (formed of civilians and officers) for the Provisional Government. Covering the period April to December 1917, the author relates the battalions' part in the summer offensive, their relations with Kornilov (including their role as, literally, the executors of his restoration of the death penalty), the course of the October Revolution at the stavka, and the battalions' subsequent flight through Ukraine toward the Don.

1265 Recouly, R. Chez les moujiks en capote grise: Souvenirs de guerre et de reÂvolution en Russie. Paris: Les EÂditions de France, 1942. 307 pp. A lively and interesting account of the author's experiences with the Russian Army ± first as a war correspondent of Le temps during the Russo-Japanese War and subsequently as a member of the French Military Mission during the First World War. 1266 Riaboff, A. Gatchina Days: Reminiscences of a Russian Pilot (ed. by V. Hardesty). Washington: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1986. 183 pp. The author (an old man when these memoirs were written in 1980) recounts his experiences as a young military pilot in the years 1914 to 1920 (in which year he fled to China). The work offers a unique perspective upon early Russian aeronautics, but otherwise is of minimal value to the historian.

1276 Feldman, R. S. `The Russian General Staff and the June 1917 Offensive', Soviet Studies Vol. 19 (1968), No. 4, pp. 526±543. This article consists of a brief survey of the development of plans for the Russian Army's summer offensive followed by a brief description of the activities at the front in June to July 1917.

1271 Ashworth, T. `Soldiers Not Peasants: The Moral Basis of the February Revolution of 1917', Sociology Vol. 26 (1992), No. 3, pp. 455±470. An exploration of the intense solidarity exhibited by the soldiers of the Petrograd Garrison during the February Revolution, concluding that the `moral power' they displayed in refusing to use their weapons played the decisive role in toppling tsarism. Furthermore, the author argues that the soldiers' concerns were primarily military rather than economic, and suggests that the revolution should be viewed as a primarily `military event'.

1277 Ferro, M. `The Russian Soldier in 1917: Undisciplined, Patriotic, and Revolutionary', Slavic Review Vol. 30 (1971), No. 2, pp. 483±512. A masterful analysis, based upon extensive research in Soviet archives, of the changing attitudes of the front-line soldiers to such questions as the war, the authority of officers and the authority of the Petrograd Soviet. Appended is a table providing a thematic breakdown of the first one hundred petitions from the troops published in Izvestiia, illustrating their initial preoccupation with their status as combatants.

1272 Burr, M. `The Collapse of the Russian Army according to Trotsky', Army Quarterly Vol. 25 (1933), pp. 289±297. A wide-ranging discussion of conditions in the Russian Army in the period February to July 1917 and a critique of the description of them offered by Trotsky in his History of the Russian Revolution [588]. The author appears to have had first-hand knowledge of the Russian Army at that time.

1278 Golovine, Lieutenant-General N. N. The Russian Army in the World War. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1931. xix + 287 pp. This still useful account of army organization and supply from 1914 to 1917 includes a final chapter on `Disintegration of 1917'. The author was a former professor at the Russian Imperial General Staff College and a senior staff officer of the Russian Army during the war. See also Golovin, N. `The Great Battle of Galicia (1914): A Study in Strategy', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 5 (1926± 1927), pp. 25±47; Golovin, N.

1273 Bushnell, J. `Peasants in Uniform: The Tsarist Army as a Peasant Society', Journal of Social History Vol. 13 (1980), No. 4, pp. 565±576. Noting the manner in which the mores of peasant life were reflected in the Russian Army, the author suggests that this might account for its lack of dynamism. 1274 Bushnell, J. `The Tsarist Officer Corps, 1881± 1914: Customs, Duty, Efficiency', American Historical Review Vol. 86 (1981), No. 4, pp. 753±781. A wide range of writings by Russian officers is used as the basis of this study, which contends that tsarist officers sustained patterns of social and professional behaviour incompatible with their military mission and that, despite Russia's defeat by Japan, there had been `no basic shift in officer mentality' by 1914.

1279 Heenan, L. E. Russian Democracy's Fatal Blunder: The Summer Offensive of 1917. New York: Praeger, 1987. xvii + 188 pp. A concise, straightforward account of the June offensive, based almost entirely upon published sources. Most interesting are the early sections dealing with the inception and planning of the action; the later sections, dealing with the disasters of its realization, were quickly surpassed by the superior work of Wildman [1299].

1275 Cockfield, J. H. With Snow on their Boots: The Military and Diplomatic Odyssey of the Russian Expeditionary Force in France, 1915±1920. London: Macmillan, 1998. xi + 396 pp. A chronicle of the remarkable story of the two Russian brigades sent to France in 1917, fully covering the impact upon them of the revolutions of 1917. Unfortunately, the final chapters of the book, dealing with events during and after the force's return to Russia, are somewhat superficial and occasionally inaccurate.

The Russian Army . 1288 integration of an Elite Unit', Military Affairs Vol. 33 (1969), No. 2, pp. 289±302. Drawing upon a regimental history of the Life Grenadiers published in New York in 1960 and upon other eÂmigreÂ materials, the author traces the changes in the composition of the unit's officer corps as a consequence of wartime expansion and casualties. He notes that these changes resulted in `the destruction of the regiment as the regular officers knew it', and contributed directly to the breakdown of discipline in the unit after the February Revolution and to the regiment's mutiny near Ternopol in June 1917.

A. `Russian Armies in Western Europe: 1799, 1814, 1917', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 13 (1954), No. 4, pp. 319±337. The concluding section of this article reviews the activities of the Russian units who began to arrive in France from June 1916, including details of their withdrawal from the front in May 1917, their contacts with Russian revolutionaries in Paris, and their repatriation during the summer of 1917.

1281 Jones, D. R. `The Officers and the October Revolution' Soviet Studies Vol. 28 (1976), No. 2, pp. 207±223. On the basis of a reading of numerous military memoirs, in this very original article the author seeks to explain the variety of motives and circumstances which determined the relative passivity of the officer corps in the face of the Bolshevik seizure of power.

1286 Mawdsley, E. `The Soldiers and Sailors', in R. Service (ed.) Society and Politics in the Russian Revolution. London: Macmillan, 1992. pp. 103±119. A useful historiographical survey of Western and eÂmigreÂ writings on the role of the military in the revolutions of 1905 and 1917, together with the author's suggestions regarding potentially rewarding areas for further research into the subject.

1282 Jones, D. R. `Imperial Russia's Forces at War', in A. R. Millett and W. Murray (eds) Military Effectiveness, Vol. 1: The First World War. Boston: Allen and Unwin, 1988. pp. 249±329. An extremely detailed and illuminating assessment of the political, strategic, operational, and tactical effectiveness of the Russian Army in the First World War, arguing that traditional accounts of Russia's wartime ineffectiveness misrepresent or ignore `both the major successes won by Russian arms and the areas of efficiency that the war economy had demonstrated by late 1916'.

1287 Mayzel, M. Generals and Revolutionaries: The Russian General Staff during the Revolution ± A Study in the Transformation of a Military Elite. OsnabruÈck: Biblio-Verlag, 1979. 322 pp. This unique history of the most senior military caste of the Russian Army concentrates upon the social and political beliefs of the genshtabisty and their relations with other groups within the army. Of particular interest is the light thrown by the author upon the officers' role in the Kornilov Affair and their reactions to the October Revolution. The work, based upon a wide range of published documentary and memoir sources, is an important one, but fails to provide a comprehensive portrait of the officer corps during the revolution. See also Mayzel, M. `The Formation of the Russian General Staff, 1880±1917: A Social Study', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 16 (1975), Nos 3±4, pp. 297±321; and Mayzel, M.

1283 Jukes, G. Carpathian Disaster: Death of an Army. London: Pan/Ballantine Books, 1973. 159 pp. A detailed military history of the Brusilov offensive, supplemented by numerous photographs and campaign maps. The author argues that the offensive failed because of the technical inferiority of the Russian forces, and concludes that `the biggest casualty of all was the morale of the Russian infantryman', thereby paving the way for the disintegration of the Russian Army in 1917. 1284 Kenez, P. `A Profile of the Pre-Revolutionary Officer Corps', Californian Slavic Studies Vol. 7 (1973), pp. 128±145. This study explores the intellectual impoverishment of Russian officers in the years before the Great War and illustrates the officers' social heterogeneity by 1917, as a consequence of the expansion of the army and the casualties among commissioned officers during the war years. Earlier versions of parts of this piece appeared as Kenez, P. `The

An intriguing piece, based on family papers and stories told to one of the authors, Shena Rosenblatt Sourkes, by her mother, Ginda Moisseyevna Kalujna. Kalujna (under her married name, Rosenblatt) served as a medical officer in the Russian Army near Zhitomir from April 1917, and later related to Sourkes how she and her superior (Henryk Zamenhof, more famous as the inventor of Esperanto) assisted in the self-demobilization of the army by routinely inventing illnesses (especially heart disorders) for soldiers who wished to leave the front. Zamenhof, who was very hard of hearing, performed the auscultations and signed the discharges himself.

1289 Nikolaieff, A. `The February Revolution and the Russian Army', Russian Review Vol. 6 (1946), No. 1, pp. 17±25. The author asserts that, contrary to Soviet histories, no guards regiments proper took part in the revolution in Petrograd and that they only accepted the revolution after their leaders had accepted it. Rather, the mutineers were members of replacement regiments whose indiscipline can be ascribed to lack of training and lack of officers. 1290 Ray, O. A. `The Imperial Russian Army Officer', Political Science Quarterly Vol. 76 (1961), No. 4, pp. 576±592. Utilizing a number of officers' memoirs and literary sources to emphasize the importance of tradition and heritage among members of the lateimperial officer corps, the author explains how Miliutin's reforms of the 1860s and 1870s had improved their levels of education but not their political awareness.

1295 Stone, N. `The Historical Background of the Red Army', in J. Erickson, and E. J. Feuchtwanger, (eds) Soviet Military Power and Significance. London: Macmillan, 1979. pp. 3±18. A concise description of the military attitudes and characteristics of the tsarist army during the First World War. 1296 Wettig, G. `Die Rolle der russischen Armee im revolutionaÈren Machtkampf 1917', Forschungen zur osteuropaÈischen Geschichte Vol. 12 (1967), pp. 46± 389. A lengthy and impressively detailed survey of developments in the army from the February Revolution to the collapse of the June offensive. The piece includes valuable bibliographical material and references to many articles in the contemporary Russian and European press.

1291 Recouly, R. (Captain X) `The Russian Army and the Revolution', Scribner's Magazine No. 62 (1917), pp. 554±563. A trip to the Turkish front during the summer of 1917 provides the impetus for this correspondent to comment favourably (in this alternately insightful and naive piece) upon the workings of the committee system in the army as he observed it. 1292 Seraphim, E. `Der Sturz des Zaren Nikolaus II und die russische GeneralitaÈt', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 2 (Old Series) (1937), pp. 433±462. A review of relations between Nicholas II and the Russian military leadership (with particular reference to General Alekseev) from the outbreak of war to the February Revolution. The article is based upon published memoir sources.

An interesting preliminary survey of events in the rear garrisons, concluding that `the impact of these soldiers on the revolution was crucial, both in intensifying the disorder and rendering Russia ungovernable, and in homogenising the experience of revolution across different regions'.

1293 Shankovsky, L. `Disintegration of the Russian Imperial Army in 1917', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 13 (1957), No. 4, pp. 305±328. A useful and quite detailed account of how `long before October 1917 the Imperial Russian Army simply disintegrated into national armies of the subjugated peoples, once the February Revolution of 1917 had opened the doors to freedom for them'. Particular attention is paid to the Ukrainian case and to events on the South-western Front.

The End of the Russian Imperial Army, Vol. 2: The Road to Soviet Power and Peace. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1987. xv + 443 pp. Treating developments in the Russian Army as social history, utilizing some Soviet archives, and treading carefully in the footsteps of his mentor, Leopold Haimson, in this brilliant and monumental study the author demonstrates that the social cleavage between workers and capitalists and peasants and landlords was perfectly mirrored in the gulf dividing soldiers from officers in 1917. An early version of the initial part of volume one appeared as Wildman, A. `The February Revolution in the Russian Army', Soviet Studies Vol. 22 (1970±1971), No. 1, pp. 3±23.

collected at the time, this article constitutes an attempt to assess the relative importance in inspiring anti-officer violence in the Baltic and Black Sea Fleets during March 1917 of three factors: the general conditions of naval service; the peculiarities of regulations and organizations governing the Russian Navy; and the impact of revolutionary propaganda. 1303 Graf, H.

Khvostov, to the President of the Council of Ministers, I. L. Goremykin, of November 1915, alleging that the main cause of the disturbances experienced in the Baltic Fleet during 1915 was the sailors' discontent with officers of German origin.

He also presents a rare analysis of the effect of the revolution upon the conventional military operations of the Baltic Fleet (notably during the Battle of Moon Sound in October 1917).

1310 Katkov, G. and Kowalewski, J. `The Russian Navy and the Revolution', in Commander M. G. Saunders, (ed.) The Soviet Navy. London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1958. pp. 84±102. The first part of this chapter, authored by George Katkov, is a brief (and not always accurate) attempt to separate the legends regarding the part played by sailors in the revolutionary events of 1905 to 1921 from the historical fact.

1315 Nekrasov, G. North of Gallipoli: The Black Sea Fleet at War, 1914±1917. Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1992. v + 167 pp. Although not, as the author is at pains to admit, a definitive history of its subject, this volume, based primarily upon the memoirs of former tsarist naval officers, provides Nekrasov with the opportunity ably to chronicle naval operations in the Black Sea from 1914 to (pace the work's title) 1921. He praises, in particular, the work of Vice-Admiral Kolchak as commander of the fleet from 1916 to 1917.

1311 Kirby, D. G. `A Navy in Revolution: The Russian Baltic Fleet in 1917', European Studies Review Vol. 4 (1974) No. 4, pp. 345±358. An unusual and interesting piece, in that it relates the course of the revolution in the Baltic Fleet to events and conditions on board ship, concentrating on Helsingfors rather than Kronstadt. The article is based upon published (primarily Soviet) materials.

1316 Saul, N. E. Sailors in Revolt: The Russian Baltic Fleet in 1917. Lawrence, KS: The Regents Press of Kansas, 1978. xiv + 312 pp. Using naval archives from Finland and Soviet published sources, the author seeks to determine why the Baltic Fleet constituted so radical a force in 1917, exploring the influence of the war, the nature of organizations and leadership at various levels in the fleet and the influence of party programmes on rankand-file sailors. The work is at its best when examining developments at Helsingfors, but less revealing with regard to Kronstadt and Reval. See also Saul, N. E. `The Cruiser Aurora and the Russian Revolution', History Today Vol. 22 (1972), pp. 768± 776.

1312 Longley, D. A. `Officers and Men: A Study of the Political Attitudes among Sailors of the Baltic Fleet in 1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 25 (1973), No. 1, pp. 28±50. The attraction to the cause of extreme left-wing parties on the part of sailors at Kronstadt, Reval and Helsingfors in the period between the February Revolution and the July Days is explained by the author as being a consequence of a considered response to local circumstances and a result of the insensitive policies of the Provisional Government in relation to the Fleet. 1313 Longley, D. `The February Revolution in the Baltic Fleet at Helsingfors: Vosstanie or Bunt?', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 20 (1978), pp. 1±22. A close reading of published documents provides the basis for this rehabilitation of Admiral A. I. Nepenin (who, the author argues, was fatally misled by Rodzianko). The article also offers an explanation of the unusual violence at Helsingfors ± citing the peculiar conditions on the big ships docked there, and the enduring influence of anarchist-Maximalist organizations.

RUSSIAN PRISONERS OF WAR IN GERMANY Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 1317 Hoffman, C. In the Prison Camps of Germany: A Narrative of `Y' Service among Prisoners of War. New York: Association Press, 1920. 279 pp. The author directed YMCA work among Russian prisoners in Germany until America's entry into the war in 1917 and provides, in this volume, extensive coverage of the conditions in which they were kept.

London: Macmillan, 1978. xv + 213 pp. A ground-breaking study of the baltiisty, based upon a wide range of contemporary publications and archival materials. The author concentrates upon the politicization of the sailors, the roles of political parties (anarchists, SRs and Maximalists, as well as the Bolsheviks) and the democratization of everyday

Russian Prisoners of War in Germany . 1319 A unique study of a little-known episode, detailing the struggle between the Allies, Russian antiBolshevik eÂmigreÂs and the Weimar authorities for control over the one million Russian prisoners of war in Germany. The author focuses upon a variety of plans and attempts to use the prisoners as an antiBolshevik army in the Baltic in 1919 and in support of General Wrangel in the Crimea in 1920.

Stanford: Stanford University Press, 1951. viii + 67 pp. A straightforward account offering a wealth of references (though no separate bibliography), if at times bordering on the hagiographical as far as Hoover, `the good samaritan to a continent', and his `cargoes of money' are concerned.

1323 Koutchkine, A. (ed.) La ReÂvolution de feÂvrier en Russie: Souvenirs et documents. Paris: Bureau d'Editions, 1937. 150 pp. Now chiefly of interest as an historiographical curiosity, this volume, consisting of translations of extracts from little-known Soviet memoirs together with a number of documents, represents the orthodox Stalinist view of the February Revolution.

Historiography 1320 Longley, D. A. `Iakovlev's Question, Or the Historiography of the Problem of Spontaneity and Leadership in the Russian Revolution of February 1917', in E. R. Frankel, J. Frankel and B. Knei-Paz (eds) Revolution in Russia: Reassessments of 1917. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 365±387. A thought-provoking appeal for Western scholars to approach the question of the relative importance of spontaneity and leadership in the February Revolution with greater sophistication, highlighting the weaknesses in the arguments of the early memorists historians often cite (such as Shliapnikov and Sukhanov) and potentially fruitful lines of enquiry suggested (albeit inadvertently) by Soviet historians of the 1930s (such as Ia. A. Iakovlev), whose works are usually dismissed as merely `Stalinist'.

From the Red Archives: Russian State Papers and Other Documents Relating to the Years 1915±1918 (transl. by A. L. Hynes; introd. by C. T. Hagberg Wright). London: Geoffrey Bles, 1929. pp. 271±282. A selection of letters and reports from the first days of March 1917, relating to the efforts of General Sir John Hanbury-Williams and the other heads of Allied military missions at the stavka to secure, in collaboration with General Alekseev, the persons of the tsar and his family and to guarantee Russia's continued commitment to the war.

The author (later a member of Kolchak's government) was in 1917 a Privatdocent at the University of Petrograd and an official on the staff of the Imperial and Provisional Governments' Ministry of Agriculture. In this brief memoir he recounts his deduction in 1917 that the onset of the February Revolution could be primarily attributed to the breakdown of the food supply system.

1347 Boll, M. M. The Petrograd Armed Workers' Movement in the February Revolution: A Study of the Radicalization of the Petrograd Proletariat. Washington, DC: University Press of America, 1979. vii + 216 pp. This careful and detailed Marxist analysis of the Red Guards, based only upon published sources, finds that the dilemma of the Provisional Government was that `institutions capable of conflict resolution were precluded from forming by the very conflicts themselves. In such a situation brute force became the primary means of achieving class goals.' See also Boll, M. M. `The Emergence of the Petrograd Red Guard (March±June 1917): A Study in the ``Radicalization'' of the Petrograd Proletariat', Journal of Modern History Vol. 51 (1979), No. 3 (Microform Supplement).

1348 Boyd, J. R. `The Origins of Order No. 1', Soviet Studies Vol. 19 (1968), No. 3, pp. 359±372. The author concludes that the Order's principles `were solely the expression of the will of the Petrograd soldiers' and that its terms reflected the garrison's practical considerations rather than the concerns of any revolutionary party. A translation of the Izvestiia text of 2 March 1917 is included, together with a discussion of the variant Pravda version of 9 March.

1349 Burdzhalov, E. N. Russia's Second Revolution: The February 1917 Uprising in Petrograd (transl. and ed. by D. J. Raleigh). Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1987. xxii + 388 pp. Building upon the author's series of mid-1950s articles debunking Stalinist historiographical orthodoxy regarding the primacy of the Bolsheviks in February 1917 (writings which gained him a lofty reputation in the West, but which cost the him his job as editor of the prestigious Soviet journal, Voprosy istorii), this richly detailed and meticulously researched monograph depicts the revolution as an essentially popular and spontaneous affair, in which the workers played the decisive role. The editor's introduction discusses the controversies surrounding Burdzhalov's publications and career. See also Burdzhalov, E. N. `The Second Russian Revolution: The Uprising in Petrograd', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 18 (1979±1980), No. 1, pp. 11±107. For further comments on the `Burdzhalov Affair' see Heer, N. W.

A stimulating investigation into the intentions of Miliukov's famous `stupidity or treason' speech before the Duma and its influence upon subsequent events in Russia. 134

The February Revolution . 1357 1350 Burdzhalov, E. N. `Revolution in Moscow', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 26 (1987±1988), No. 1, pp. 10±100. In this remarkable challenge to received Soviet historiographical wisdom on the leading role of the Bolsheviks during the February Revolution in Moscow, the author uses archival materials and bibliographically rare memoir sources to establish that Bolshevik forces in the city were, in fact, divided and disorganized. This piece remains the fullest English-language account available of the events in Moscow from 28 February to 12 March.

1354 Glindin, I. F. `Problems in the History of the February Revolution and Its Socio-Economic Preconditions', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 7 (1968± 1969), pp. 3±25. A colourless report of the main arguments raised in papers presented by Soviet historians at a congress held in March 1967 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the February Revolution. 1355 Hasegawa, T. `The Formation of the Militia in the February Revolution: An Aspect of the Origins of Dual Power', Slavic Review Vol. 32 (1973), No. 2, pp. 303±322. A careful study of one aspect of the tripartite relations between the Executive Committee of the Petrograd Soviet, the Duma Committee and the Petrograd workers in the period 27 February to 1 March 1917, identifying the origins of dual power in the Soviet's tempering of the revolutionary aspirations of the workers and in the emergence of the Red Guard as a counter to the Provisional Government's `People's Militia'.

1351 Chamberlin, W. H. `The First Russian Revolution', Russian Review Vol. 26 (1967), No. 1, pp. 4±12. A brief article in which the author restates his claim ± made originally in his much-respected history of the revolution [533] ± that the February Revolution `was a consequence of one of the most spontaneous, unplanned, unorganized leaderless mass revolts in history'. 1352 Diakin, V. S. `The Leadership Crisis in Russia on the Eve of the February Revolution', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 23 (1984±1985), No. 1, pp. 10± 38. In this piece the dean of Soviet historians of the early twentieth century focuses on `the crisis in the ruling circles' of tsarism in order to paint a more or less conventional portrait of the weaknesses of the reÂgime in its last months (albeit one presented in a fresh and amusingly ironic manner).

1356 Hasegawa, T. `The Bolsheviks and the Formation of the Petrograd Soviet in the February Revolution', Soviet Studies Vol. 29 (1977), No. 1, pp. 86±107. In this piece the author argues that the Soviet critics of E. N. Burdzhalov succeeded in documenting that the lower echelons of the Bolshevik organizations in Petrograd, in contrast to their leadership, had formulated a policy sympathetic to the Soviet as a revolutionary power. (This article inspired a subsequent historiographical debate in the pages of Soviet Studies: see Melancon [1368]).

1353 Ferro, M. The Russian Revolution of February 1917 (transl. by J. L. Richards and N. Stone; pref. by R. Portal). London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1972. xv + 478 pp. A rather poorly translated and shoddily produced edition of the original French publication ± Ferro, M. La ReÂvolution de 1917. La Chute du tsarisme et les origines d'octobre. Paris: Aubier Editions Montaigne, 1967. 606 pp. ± which in itself was criticized for its factual errors and uncritical use of contentious published Soviet sources. In his account of the period February to June 1917, however, the author had the advantage of using Soviet archival sources to construct a most original analysis of the demands of workers, peasants and minority nationalities and of the policies of the political parties and the Provisional Government with regard to them. Unpublished documents on these subjects are included in the documentary appendix. See also Ferro, M. `Les deÂbuts du Soviet de Petrograd (27±28 feÂvrier 1917 ± ancien style)', Revue historique No. 224 (1960), pp. 353±380.

1357 Hasegawa, T. The February Revolution: Petrograd 1917. Seattle: University of Washington Press, 1981. xxii + 652 pp. In this, the first Western monograph on the collapse of tsarism to utilize materials from the Soviet archives and a work which stands as the indispensable basic history of the February Revolution, the author casts doubt on the work of those such as Pares [1371], Florinsky [1039] and Miliukov [294 and 828] who had portrayed the liberals as the prime movers of the revolution, dismisses the inflated role ascribed to the Bolsheviks by Stalinist historians, and contends that the February Revolution was a consequence of both the revolt of the masses and middle-class opposition to tsarism. The most important, illuminating and original sections of this detailed narrative history (two-thirds of the text are devoted to the period 23 February to 3 March 1917) cover the chain of events which led to the tsar's abdication and the establishment of the Provisional Government and the 135

1358 . 9 The Revolutions of 1917 Petrograd Soviet. The work develops arguments earlier presented in Hasegawa, T. `The Problem of Power in the February Revolution of 1917 in Russia', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 14 (1972), No. 4, pp. 611±632; and Hasegawa, T. `Rodzianko and the Manifesto of Grand Duke Mikhail', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 18 (1976), No. 2, pp. 154±167.

In this essay Kerensky contends that Nicholas II `smashed his own throne', that `the revolution was not prepared by anyone', and that this very lack of preparedness fundamentally weakened the Provisional Government. 1362 Kolonitskii, B. I. `The ``Russian Idea'' and the Ideology of the February Revolution', in T. Hara and K. Matsuzato, (eds) Empire and Society: New Approaches to Russian History. Sapporo: Slavic Research Center (Hokkaido University), 1997. pp. 41±72. Utilizing an interesting range of published sources (both historical and contemporary) as well as Russian archival materials, the author explores the national roots of a variety of `important revolutionary trends' in the events of February 1917 ± `Religious Revolution', `The ``Russian'' Revolution', and the `Anti-Bourgeois Revolution' ± arguing that `these components were present in both program and propaganda materials and in the mass consciousness'.

1358 Jacoby, J. Le Tsar Nicolas et la reÂvolution. Paris: A. Fayard, 1931. 384 pp. The intrinsic value of this early study is virtually nil, but it remains interesting for its monarchistic interpretation and, in particular, for its perpetuation of the legend that the British ambassador, Buchanan, played a leading role in the overthrow of the monarchy. 1359 Jones, D. R. `Nicholas II and the Supreme Command: An Investigation of Motives', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 11 (1985), pp. 47±83. An exceptionally thorough and well written refutal of the common charge that Nicholas II's decision to take personal command of the army in the summer of 1915 was the work of pressure put upon him by Alexandra and Rasputin. Rather, the author finds, the decision accorded with Nicholas's own sense of duty and, more significantly, enabled him to rid himself of the militarily incompetent and politically embarrassing commander-in-chief, the Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolaevich, thereby to avoid the possibility of a military coup and to obtain other political benefits by raising morale.

1363 Kolonitskii, B. I. ` ``Democracy'' in the Political Consciousness of the February Revolution', Slavic Review Vol. 57 (1998), No. 1, pp. 95±106. An original examination of the usage and understanding of the term `democracy' during 1917, focusing in particular upon the gulf between the `bookish language' of the February Revolution and its memorists, on the one hand, and the `deep-seated mental structures' of the Russian masses, on the other. Among the latter, notes the author, ` ``democratism'' of the 1917 type could be combined with the cult of the leader', as a consequence of Russia's authoritarian-patriarchal tradition.

1360 Katkov, G. Russia 1917: The February Revolution. London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1967. 489 pp. In this very controversial work the eÂmigreÂ author challenges the view commonly expressed in Western scholarship that the February Revolution was spontaneous. Rather, Katkov assigns pivotal roles in the collapse of tsarism to German political intervention (Revolutionerrungspolitik) and the plots of Political Freemasons, while damning Russian liberals for their foolish undermining of the stability of the tsarist reÂgime during the war. For critical reviews of the work, see Asher, A. `February 1917', Survey No. 65 (1967), pp. 108±115; Elkin, B. `The Doom of the Russian Monarchy', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 47 (1969), pp. 514±524; and Hutchinson, J. `The February Revolution: Myths and Realities', Canadian Slavic Studies Vol. 1 (1967), No. 3, pp. 482±489.

An attempt to reveal `the process of ideological change' which resulted in the Executive Committee of the Petrograd Soviet's qualified cooperation with the Provisional Government in the first days of the revolution, as well as some of the alternatives its Menshevik and SR leaders considered and rejected. The author concludes that fear of counter-revolution was the major determining factor in the origins of dual power. 1365 Longley, D. A. `What Made the Cossack Wink? Armies in Revolution: 1789 and 1917', International Politics Vol. 33 (1996), No. 4, pp. 319±339. Comparing the events in Petrograd on 24 February 1917 with those in Grenoble on 7 June 1788,

The February Revolution . 1371 the author argues that on both occasions rebellious crowds expected hostility from the army and made no call to the soldiers for solidarity and that, in each case, `the move towards conciliation came from the army', with the officers leading the way. The latter phenomenon Longley attributes to the officers' disillusionment with the manner in which their governments were managing the armed forces.

Utilizing newly available Russian archival sources, the author challenges the traditional view of the decision to hold a private meeting as evidence of `indecision' on the part of the Duma leaders and attempts to construct the precise sequence of events.

T. `The Establishment of Democracy in Russia: The Origins of the Provisional Government Reconsidered', History of European Ideas Vol. 11 (1989), pp. 181±188. The author argues that, contrary to accepted opinion, the Provisional Government was not a spontaneous creation of the revolution and that, rather than being forced to adopt a radical democratic programme at odds with their own moderate beliefs, the politicians who constituted the government `were themselves responsible for the formulation of its broadly democratic programme'. The concerted actions of A. F. Kerensky, N. V. Nekrasov, M. E. Tereshchenko, N. S. Chkheidze, N. N. Sukhanov, M. I. Skobelev, A. I. Guchkov, A. I. Konovalov, G. E. L'vov and others Norton traces to their common membership of a masonic organization, the Grand Orient of the Peoples of Russia.

1367 Maklakov, B. `On the Fall of Tsardom', Slavonic and East European Review, Vol. 18 (1939), pp. 73±92. In this piece, inspired by the publication of Pares's Fall of the Russian Monarchy [1371], the Kadet author insists that had Russian liberals (in particular the Kadets) had the percipience to have supported the monarchy during the wartime crisis, this would have proven to be an excellent means of boosting the prestige of the Duma and might have been a first step on the road to the establishment of a true constitutional monarchy. See also Maklakov, B. `La Russie de 1900 aÁ 1917', Revue de Paris Vol. 31 (1924), No. 19, pp. 508±517; No. 22, pp. 271±280; No. 23, pp. 609±616.

1371 Pares, B. The Fall of the Russian Monarchy: A Study of the Evidence. London: Jonathan Cape, 1939. 510 pp. Confining himself to high politics and ignoring social and economic factors, the author, the foremost British Slavist of his time, argues that the tsarist reÂgime fell not because of deep-seated weaknesses, but because of the errors and miscalculations of Nicholas and Alexandra under the baleful influence of Rasputin: `How easily things might have moved and nearly did move in quite a different direction', Pares notes, citing in particular the tsar's failure to accept a coalition ministry when such a prospect was on offer in 1915. This argument had previously been essayed by the author in Pares, B. `Rasputin and the Empress: The Authors of Russia's Collapse', Foreign Affairs Vol. 6 (1927), Nos 1±4, pp. 140±154. See also Pares, B. `New Light on the Last Days of the Russian Monarchy', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 6 (1927±1928), pp. 464±467.

A controversial piece (inspired by Hasegawa [1356], alleging that the Bolsheviks did not produce (or did not produce independently) leaflets hitherto attributed to them and that, rather, many were the work of joint Mezhraionka±SR±Bolshevik±LeftMenshevik efforts, with the first two elements being the most influential.

A translation of an important article by a leading Soviet historian in which the author examines the reactions of artists (both famous ± Blok, Somov, Maiakovskii ± and not so famous), professional figures and students to the events on the streets of Petrograd in the period 23 to 27 February 1917, by quotations from memoirs, letters and diaries and from the contemporary press.

1373 Sworakowskii, W. S. `The Authorship of the Abdication Document of Nicholas II', Russian Review Vol. 30 (1971), No. 3, pp. 277±286. In this hour-by-hour account of the drafting and issuing of the tsar's abdication decree, the author establishes that the author of the document was not Nicholas II himself, but Nicholas A. de Basily, Vice Director of the Chancellery of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (whose then-unpublished memoirs [1328] form the basis of the account). Appended is a facsimile copy of de Basily's final draft, complete with some amendments to it in the handwriting of General M. V. Alekseev.

According to the author, Russian political freemasonry (uniting figures as diverse as Prince G. E. L'vov, A. F. Kerensky, N. V. Nekrasov, N. S. Chkheidze, V. A. Maklakov, E. D. Kuskova, Grand Duke Nikolai Mikhailovich, N. D. Sokolov, A. I. Konovalov and others) `played a great role in the decisive years of 1915±1917', and in particular in the February Revolution. Appended to the article are extracts from letters written in the 1950s from the eminent Russian freemason E. D. Kuskova to N. V. Vol'skii and Lydia Dan, testifying to the organization's activities and influence.

1375 Walter, G. Histoire de la reÂvolution russe, Vol. 1. Paris: Gallimard, 1953. 393 pp. This account of the overthrow of the monarchy, by a prolific French authority on revolutionary movements, constitutes the first in a projected three-volume series but was the only one to appear. Although marred by minor inaccuracies and overt quasi-Communist bias, it remains useful ± not least for its huge bibliography. 1376 White, J. D. `The Sormovo-Nikolaev Zemlyachestvo in the February Revolution', Soviet Studies Vol. 31 (1979), No. 4, pp. 475±504. The author argues that `none of the reasons usually adduced by [Western and Soviet] historians for supposing that there was no political direction or leadership in the February days is valid'. Direction was provided, White finds, by the eponymous society of workers from the provinces ± a group which formed the nucleus of the Bolshevik Vyborg Com-

I. `Metamorphosis of the Masonic Legend', Russian Studies in History Vol. 34 (1995± 1996), No. 4, pp. 6±26. 138

From February to October (General and Miscellaneous) . 1389 A translation of an article by the noted Soviet historian which was originally published in 1980. Mints denies any suggestion that Masonry played a significant role in Russian opposition politics or in the February Revolution, thereby epitomizing the official Soviet line on the subject.

FROM FEBRUARY TO OCTOBER (GENERAL AND MISCELLANEOUS) Documents, Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 1386 Browder, R. P. and Kerensky, A. F. (eds) The Russian Provisional Government, 1917: Documents, 3 vols. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1961. 1875 pp. A collection of more than 1,400 documents, including acts, statements and appeals of the Provisional Government and the Petrograd Soviet, records of local and national congresses and conferences, extracts from unpublished archives, from the press, memoirs, secondary literature, etc. The volumes are divided into eight parts by subject, each furnished with expository prefaces by the editors. Although this remains the standard collection of source materials on 1917, the editors were widely criticized for their partiality and selectivity. See Schlesinger, R. `Kerensky and the Russian Provisional Government', Science and Society Vol. 28 (1964), No. 3, pp. 305± 315; and Mosse, W. E. `Interlude: the Russian Provisional Government of 1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 15 (1964), No. 4, pp. 408±419. See also, and in particular, Elkin [1401].

1382 Norton, B. T. `Russian Political Freemasonry and the February Revolution of 1917', International Review of Social History Vol. 28 (1983), No. 2, pp. 240±258. A thorough review of the sources, with many useful bibliographical and archival references, together with a call for further research into the subject, which the author claims to be a key to the proper understanding of the movement for a united opposition during the First World War, of the February Revolution and of the operation of the Provisional Government. See also Norton, B. T. `Russian Political Freemasonry, 1917, and Historians', Russian History Vol. 11 (1984), No. 1, pp. 83±100. 1383 Smith, N. `The Role of Russian Freemasonry in the February Revolution: Another Scrap of Evidence', Slavic Review Vol. 27 (1968), pp. 604±608. An extract from the unpublished memoirs of Prince V. A. Obolensky tending to support the contention of Katkov [1360] that Freemasonry as a whole did not work for a popular uprising during the war and the assertion of Kerensky that Freemasonry played no uniform political role in 1917. See also Smith, N. `Political Freemasonry in Russia, 1900± 1914: A Discussion of the Sources', Russian Review Vol. 44 (1985), No. 2, pp. 157±173; and Smith, N. and Norton, B.

1387 Kerensky, A. F. `The Policy of the Provisional Government of 1917', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 11 (1932±1933), No. 31, pp. 1±20. In this brief survey Kerensky asserts that the military and political policies of his government were both successful and in line with the desires of `free public opinion' and that its efforts were only defeated because of the `treacherous' armed struggle and conspiracy launched against it by Kornilov. See also Kerensky, A. F. The History of the Russian Provisional Government. Stanford: Stanford University Press, 1961.

1384 Solov'ev, O. F. `Freemasonry in Russia', Russian Studies in History Vol. 34 (1995±1996) No. 3, pp. 27±58. A general history of the evolution of Freemasonry in Russia from the eighteenth to the twentieth century, denying that it had great significance in either political or social thought and claiming that it was, in fact, merely `a tool used by exploiter classes as they tried to preserve their domination'.

1388 Lorenz, R. with von Boetticher, M. and Pietrow, B. (eds) Die russische Revolution 1917. Der Aufstand der Arbeiter, Bauern und Soldaten. Eine Dokumentation. Munich: Nymphenberger Verlagshandlung, 1981. 376 pp. The first Western attempt to collect documents relating specifically to mass movements during 1917, this rather disappointing selection of 204 documents drawn from published Soviet collections fails to convey anything beyond the general trends of the workers', peasants' and soldiers' movements.

1385 Startsev, V. I. `Russian Masons in the Twentieth Century', Russian Studies in History Vol. 34 (1995±1996) No. 3, pp. 59±83. In response to O. F. Solov'ev's denials [1384], the author presents evidence to suggest that there existed a significant Masonic political presence among Russian oppositional forces on the eve of the February Revolution.

1389 `March to May, 1917', in C. E. Vulliamy (ed.) From the Red Archives: Russian State Papers and Other Documents Relating to the Years 1915±1918 (transl. by A. L. Hynes; introd. by C. T. Hagberg 139

1390 . 9 The Revolutions of 1917 Wright). London: Geoffrey Bles, 1929. pp. 227±270. Reproduced here is a remarkable `Survey of Russia during the Three Months of the Revolution, Based on the Data of the Provincial Section, Attached to the Provisional Committee of the State Duma', detailing the breakdown of order across the provinces of European Russia as a consequence of the `blind, irresponsible' activities of the peasantry and describing the peasantry's attitude to the Constituent Assembly, to the Soviets and to the Provisional Government and its local agencies.

Petrograd Soviet and (briefly) Minister of Post and Telegraph in the Provisional Government are important as the most detailed account of the first months of the revolution (to July 1917) of any government official. They are, however, overly contentious on many minor points and irritatingly terse where they might have been of particular value (on the inner workings of the Soviet and its Executive Committee, for example). 1394 Vishniak, M. V. `The Day Democracy Died in Russia', Time (20 January 1958). This account of the one and only session of the Constituent Assembly, which is authored by its SR Secretary, provoked sharp criticism from his fellow exiles in New York.

1390 Medlin, V. G. and Parsons, S. L. (eds) V. D. Nabokov and the Russian Provisional Government, 1917 (introd. by R. P. Browder). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1976. viii + 188 pp. A source of immense historical value, this volume contains the unusually candid memoirs of V. D. Nabokov, a member of the Kadet Executive Committee and a key servant of the Provisional Government (as Head of Chancellery and as a member of the Juridical Council and the Electoral Commission). His descriptions of the workings of the government and his candid pen portraits of its members are probably as fair as any in the literature of the revolution, having been written in 1918 and being, therefore, not coloured by the experiences of 1919 to 1920 which distort many similar accounts. Also included are a prefatory essay by Baron B. E. Nol'de (`V. D. Nabokov in 1917', originally published in 1922) and extensive bibliographical, biographical and editorial notes.

This collection of the letters sent from a YMCA secretary to his family in the United States is notable for its detachment, providing a sensible, unbiased, outsider's view of the February Revolution, the April Crisis and the summer offensive. See also the general collection of Heald's letters [4195]. 1396 Walsh, W. B. (ed.) `May±June, 1917: An Estimate of the Situation (George Kennan to Douglas W.

Reproduced here is the text of a letter by Kennan to an American geography professor relating a conversation he had on 26 June 1917 with N. A. Borodin, a representative of the Provisional Government's Ministry of Agriculture, in relation to the Root Mission.

1391 Onou, A. `The Provisional Government of Russia in 1917', Contemporary Review Vol. 814 (1933), pp. 446±454. Some illuminating insights into the workings and personalities of the Provisional Government are to be found in these pathetical recollections. The author served as assistant to cabinet secretary Vladimir Nabokov from 20 March to 23 July, when he resigned in protest at the utopianism of the government in general and Kerensky in particular.

From February to October (General and Miscellaneous) . 1406 A penetrating analysis of the political ideas of the SR and Menshevik leaders of the Petrograd Soviet in the first months of the revolution, with particular reference to the question of their attitude to state power in the `bourgeois revolution'.

Russia: Reassessments of 1917. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 17±33. Concentrating upon the Soviets of Saratov, Tiflis, Kronstadt and Helsingfors, the author argues that during the period of the Provisional Government `the soviets became quasi-parliamentary bodies, intensively engaged in educating the masses in the practices of democratic elections, political pluralism and parliamentary procedures' and were the champions of municipal democratization, universal suffrage and speedy elections to the Constituent Assembly.

1399 Bailey, S. D. `The Russian Constituent Assembly of 1918', Parliamentary Affairs Vol. 7 (1954), No. 3, pp. 336±344. A brief, factual account of the elections to the Constituent Assembly and an examination of the Bolsheviks' reasons for allowing it to convene.

1404 Gill, G. J. `The Failure of Rural Policy in Russia, February±October 1917', Slavic Review Vol. 37 (1978), No. 1, pp. 241±258. The central thesis of this useful piece is that, as a consequence of its commitment to the war and the concomitant victualling of the army, the interest of the government in the three main spheres of rural life ± local administration, land matters and food ± ran directly counter to what the peasantry perceived its own best interests to be.

1400 Dando, W.A. `A Map of the Election to the Russian Constituent Assembly of 1917', Slavic Review Vol. 25 (1966), pp. 314±319. A useful addendum to Oliver Radkey's study of the election [1421], from which its data are drawn. The map illustrates the percentage of the total vote cast for the Bolshevik Party and indicates the party which received the plurality of votes in each guberniia of European Russia. 1401 Elkin. B. `The Kerensky Government and Its Fate', Slavic Review Vol. 23 (1964), No. 4, pp. 717± 736. A highly critical review of Browder and Kerensky's collection of documents on 1917 [1386] ± the flaws and omissions of which, alleges Elkin, render much of it `of little, if any, value' ± by a stern critic of the policies of the Provisional Government on the land question and the war and of Kerensky's part in the Kornilov Affair. Elkin was in turn brought to book ± for, among other things, being too uncritical of Miliukov ± by a Right-SR: Vishniak, M. `A Pamphlet in the Guise of a Review', Slavic Review Vol. 25 (1966), No. 1, pp. 143±149.

1405 Hasegawa, T. `Crime, Police and Mob Justice in Petrograd during the Russian Revolution of 1917', in C. E. Timberlake (ed.) Religious and Secular Forces in Late Tsarist Russia: Essays in Honor of Donald W. Treadgold. Seattle: University of Washington Press, 1992. pp. 241±271. A fascinating examination of the relationship between crime and society in Petrograd during 1917. Utilizing contemporary newspaper reports (chiefly from Petrogradskii listok), the author finds that a `phenomenal increase in crime, not only numerical but in degree of violence', was among the most important causes for the disintegration of social cohesion in the capital during 1917, and that `the well-to-do and the urban poor were the hardest hit'. See also Hasegawa, T. `Crime and Police in Revolutionary Petrograd, March 1917±March 1918', Acta Slavica Iaponica Vol. 13 (1995), No. 4, pp. 1±41.

1402 Ferro, M. `The Aspirations of Russian Society' in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 143±157. Based upon a study of over four thousand letters and telegrams addressed to the Duma, the Provisional Government and the Soviet in the weeks after the February Revolution, in this revealing study the author contrasts the social and political aspirations of different segments of the Russian public (workers, peasants and soldiers) with the programmes of the main political parties and the government.

1406 Hickey, M. C. `Discourses on Public Identity and Liberalism in the February Revolution: Smolensk, Spring 1917', Russian Review Vol. 55 (1996), No. 4, pp. 615±637. An analysis of political debate in Smolensk during March and April 1917 and the weakness of liberalism in the provinces, as revealed in local newspapers. The author finds that, even before Lenin's return to Russia, Kadet-inspired debates about obshchestvennost ' (public-spiritedness) had been replaced by classbased discourse, as the lower-middle stratum increasingly identified itself with the interests of the working class.

Despite its title, this article presents a useful summary of Bolshevik, SR, Menshevik and Kadet grapplings with the implications of peasant land seizures throughout 1917.

roughly 350 communications from local institutions to the central authorities he discovered in the newly opened Russian archives, the author concludes that the masses, from the outset, were relatively indifferent to the Provisional Government, that `one-party dictatorship played no role in the thinking of workers, soldiers and peasants', and that, from the beginning, their `main goal' was `a socialist government based on or associated with the soviets'.

1408 Kolonitskii, B. I. `Antibourgeois Propaganda and Anti-``Burzhui'' Consciousness in 1917' (transl. by K. S. Schultz), Russian Review Vol. 53 (1994), No. 2, pp. 183±196. A fascinating investigation, by a Russian historian, of the all-pervading `socialist subculture' of 1917 which manifested itself in publication of the same anti-capitalist tracts by many parties of the left, shared symbolism and language, and the flowering of organizations as diverse as the `socialist clergymen' and the Socialist Union of Deaf Mutes. The author concludes that so deep-rooted and widespread were anti-bourgeois sentiments that there was little chance of an agreement between moderate socialist and liberal elements and that even a unified socialist government `scarcely could have averted civil war'.

1413 Melancon, M. `Soldiers, Peasant-Soldiers and Peasant-Workers and Their Organizations in Petrograd: Ground-Level Revolution during the Early Months of 1917', Soviet and Post-Soviet Review Vol. 23 (1996), No. 2, pp. 161±190. This cumbersomely entitled piece examines the origins, goals, outlooks and accomplishments of a number of organizations which have hitherto received little scholarly attention: the soldiers' section of the Petrograd Soviet; unit committees of the Petrograd Garrison; the Petrograd Soviet of Peasants' Delegates; and the zemliachestva. The author seeks to demonstrate that, in each case, `most of the founding principal leaders and activist cadres were Socialist Revolutionaries, although the institutions did not subject themselves to any party organization'.

1409 Lorenz, R. `Zur Industriepolitik der Provisorischen Regierung', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 14 (1966), No. 3, pp. 367±387. A pioneering attempt to examine the aims, methods, and achievements of the Provisional Government's industrial and economic policies. The article is based upon contemporary published sources and a range of published Soviet accounts.

1414 Orlovsky, D. T. `The Provisional Government and Its Cultural Work', in A. Gleason, P. Kenez and R. Stites (eds) Bolshevik Culture: Experiment and Order in the Russian Revolution. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1985. pp. 39±56. An interesting essay on the failure of the Provisional Government's attempts to use cultural policy as a means of broadening and deepening the level of its social support, arguing that the Bolsheviks understood better than the Provisional Government that `cultural work must be at the very center of a revolutionary regime's activities'. For Orlovsky, the Provisional Government's `inability to generate an effective cultural policy' was, in fact, `one of the most important weaknesses it was afflicted by'.

1410 Mau, V. `Bread, Democracy and the Bolshevik Coup' (transl. by J. Biggart), Revolutionary Russia Vol. 7 (1994), No. 1, pp. 34±37. A brief condemnation of the Provisional Government's `illusion' of attempting to combine `democratic norms and procedures' (the elected district food committees) with `an anti-market, administrative, coercive policy' (the grain monopoly).

1415 Orlovsky, D. `Reform during Revolution: Governing the Provinces in 1917', in R. O. Crummey (ed.) Reform in Russia and the U.S.S.R.: Past and Prospects Urbana/Chicago: University of Illinois Press, 1989. pp. 100±125. Arguing that `the survival of the Provisional Government . . . depended almost entirely on its ability to administer the provinces', the author finds that the results of both the reformist and the revolutionary initiatives made in this regard in 1917 were, in fact, `meagre'.

1411 Medlin, V. D. `Aspekte der Russischen Wirkschaft Februar±Oktober 1917', Sowjetstudien (Munich) No. 25 (1968), pp. 74±98. A rare exploration of industrial policy and performance under the Provisional Government. 1412 MelancËon, M. `The Syntax of Soviet Power: The Resolutions of Local Soviets and Other Institutions, March±October 1917', Russian Review Vol. 52 (1993), No. 4, pp. 486±505.

In this piece the author argues that by stripping away the categories of class conflict which have dominated the historiography of 1917, one is able to understand that the Provisional Government was more corporate than democratic in both its outlook and its actions. For Orlovsky, `Democracy was an ambiguous category in the February Revolution and throughout 1917.'

1420 Rabinowitch, A. Prelude to Revolution: The Petrograd Bolsheviks and the July 1917 Uprising. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1968. xi + 229 pp. A dispassionate and meticulous analysis of the July Days, establishing conclusively, through an hour-by-hour reconstruction of the events (based largely upon contemporary newspapers and early Soviet memoirs), that elements of the Bolshevik Military Organization in Petrograd systematically prepared and provoked the disturbances which broke out on 3 July. More generally, the author challenges the notion that the Bolshevik Party of 1917 was a disciplined, monolithic organization.

1417 Owen, L. A. `The Russian Agrarian Revolution of 1917, Part I', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 12 (1933±1934), pp. 155±166. A pioneering study of the state of mind of the Provisional Government throughout 1917, as reflected in communications between its central and local agencies on the subject of rural affairs, food supply and land reform.

1421 Radkey, O. H. Russia Goes to the Polls: The Election to the All-Russian Constituent Assembly, 1917 (fwd. by S. Fitzpatrick). Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1989. xxvi + 171 pp. An indispensable work of pioneering and painstaking scholarship, this volume includes, in its entirety, the author's earlier account of the election returns (Radkey, O. H. The Election to the Russian Constituent Assembly of 1917. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1950. 87 pp.), reassesses its conclusions in the light of recent research, and supplements it with a wealth of new data, relating in particular to the vote of the non-Russian peoples and of various religious parties and special-interest groups. For an interesting review of the original volume by M. Vishniak, the secretary of the Constituent Assembly, see the New Review Vol. 24 (1950).

1418 Pethybridge, R. The Spread of the Russian Revolution: Essays on 1917. London: Macmillan, 1972. xiii + 238 pp. A brilliant and original collection of essays assessing the impact upon the political developments between February and October of various aspects of communications ± including the railways, post and telegraph, supplies, the press, propaganda, and political rumours. The chapter on the press appeared originally as Pethybridge, R. `The Political Functions of the Russian Press in 1917', in L'Opinion publique europeÂenne devant la ReÂvolution russe de 1917 (introd. by F. l'Huillier). Paris: Sirey, 1968, pp. 9±36.

1422 Rosenberg, W. G. `The Russian Municipal Duma Elections of 1917: A Preliminary Computation of Returns', Soviet Studies Vol. 21 (1969±1970), No. 1, pp. 131±163. In this piece incomplete results of municipal duma elections in Moscow, Petrograd and 130 provincial towns, as reported in the press, are presented, carefully analysed and compared with the less satisfactory statistics used by the Provisional Government (as republished in Browder and Kerensky [1386], Vol. 3, p. 1301).

1419 Protasov, L. G. `The All-Russian Constituent Assembly and the Democratic Alternative: Two Views of the Problem', Russian Studies in History Vol. 33 (1994±1995), No. 3, pp. 67±93. Attempting to resolve the question of why (with less than one-quarter of the popular vote) the Bolsheviks found it so easy to disperse the Constituent Assembly, the author argues that, irrespective of for which party people might have chosen to vote on a ballot sheet, `most of the electorate was close to the Bolsheviks both in spirit and in methods'.

1423 Schapiro, L. `The Political Thought of the First Provisional Government', in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 97±113. In this thoughtful essay the author stresses the idealism of the L'vov government and identifies its main weakness as being that, in the first critical days of the revolution, the Provisional Government `was more anxious to assert its good intentions than to give proof of any awareness of the danger of anarchy'. 143

Inspired by the crisis of liberal reforms in postCommunist Russia, the author presents here a damning critique of the Provisional Government's incompetence and inability to govern. The ministers' major mistake, he contends, was that `they did not know how to maintain a more or less calm tone in regard to criticism of the previous regime, which to a considerable extent fostered the radicalization of public sentiments'.

1427 White, H. J. `Civil Rights and the Provisional Government', in O. Crisp and I. Edmondson (eds) Civil Rights in Imperial Russia. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1989. pp. 287±312. A unique analysis of the Provisional Government's programme of civil rights ± defined as freedom of conscience, expression, association, movement and assembly; equality before the law; and the right to due process of law ± of the government's attempt to realize that programme, and its subsequent retreat from it. 1428 Wittram, R.

Rupprecht, 1971. 158 pp. A workmanlike summary of existing knowledge on the L'vov cabinets, supplemented by some reference to unpublished Swedish diplomatic sources, forms the first part of this mysteriously entitled volume; a selection of contemporary newspaper articles and speeches, the second; a brief study of the Provisional Government's relations with Estonian and Latvian nationalists, the third.

1425 Wade, R. A. `The Rajonnye Sovety of Petrograd: The Role of Local Political Bodies in the Russian Revolution', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 20 (1972), No. 2, pp. 226±240. In this pioneering study of local governmental organs (district Soviets and the Interdistrict Conference of Soviets), which is largely based upon their published records, the author traces their origin and structure, surveys their activities and the popular aspirations these reflected, examines their political colouration and role as political authorities, and analyses their challenge to the Petrograd Soviet as the mouthpiece for the `Soviet Democracy' in the autumn of 1917.

A fuller version of the author's responses to papers presented at a symposium on the revolution in 1967 by Oskar Anweiler and Leonard Schapiro (see Pipes [569], pp. 128±138), arguing that there existed in Petrograd in 1917 not the `dual power' of the Provisional Government and the Soviet but `triple power', the third element being `the stikhiia, the elemental, uncontrollable, perpetually fluctuating force of the barracks and the street'.

1426 Wade, R. A. Red Guards and Workers' Militias in the Russian Revolution. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1984. ix + 391 pp. A detailed investigation into the origins, growth and development, arming and training and social and political characteristics of the workers' armed bands in Petrograd from February to October 1917 forms the bulk of this important volume. It is supplemented by a briefer survey of the Red Guards across Russia (with particular reference to Saratov and Khar'kov) and by an account of their fate after the Bolshevik Revolution. The work is largely based upon materials held in two Moscow archives. See also Wade, R. A. `Spontaneity in the Formation of the Workers' Militias and Red Guards, 1917', in R. C. Elwood (ed.)

Historiography 1432 Long, J. V. `Kornilov Redivivus: New Data on the Prelude to Bolshevism', Russian History Vol. 11 (1984), No. 1, pp. 101±110. A review article which concentrates upon the then recently published works of George Katkov [1443] and Martin Kettle [2651], but which also provides a useful brief record of the most important Soviet and Western publications on the issue.

1437 [White, J. D. (ed.)] `A Document on the Kornilov Affair' (introd. by J. D. White; transl. by J. D. White and N. White), Soviet Studies Vol. 25 (1973), No. 2, pp. 283±298. This document (Ukraintsev, N. `The Kornilov Affair: Observations by a Member of the Extraordinary Commission of Inquiry'), unique in that it constitutes a well-informed first-hand account by one not personally involved in the affair, is of the utmost importance. It casts doubt upon Kerensky's version of events during the summer of 1917 and raises questions about the possible line of continuity between the Guchkov conspiracy of late 1916, the February Revolution and the Kornilov Affair.

1433 Munck, J. L. The Kornilov Revolt: A Critical Examination of the Sources. Aarhus: Aarhus University Press, 1987. 175 pp. Although occasionally rendered opaque by its flawed English, this is the most useful full-length work on the subject ± not so much for its conclusions as for its commendably balanced descriptions and assessments of the available Russian and Westernlanguage sources. The volume includes an important bibliography.

Studies 1438 Ascher, A. `The Kornilov Affair', Russian Review Vol. 12 (1953), No. 4, pp. 235±252. A view of the affair as `a test of strength between Kornilov and Kerensky' which, while highly critical of the former, is less of an exoneration of the latter than it is sometimes claimed to be.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 1434 Kerensky, A. F. The Prelude to Bolshevism: The Kornilov Rebellion. London: T. Fisher Unwin, 1919. 318 pp. Written during his escape from Russia, but originally published in Moscow in 1918, this volume, intended as a defence of the author's role, includes the partial text of Kerensky's statements to his own Commission of Inquiry of 8 October 1917, extensively edited by himself, together with his own personal comments and explanations added at a later date.

1439 Asher, H. `The Kornilov Affair: A Reinterpretation', Russian Review Vol. 29 (1970), No. 3, pp. 286±300. On the basis of the published sources available, the author of this rather speculative piece concludes that neither Kerensky nor Kornilov can be exonerated of guilt in the affair.

1435 [Kornilov, L. G.] `The Kornilov Deposition', in G. Katkov, Russia, 1917: The Kornilov Affair ± Kerensky and the Break-up of the Russian Army. London: Longman, 1980. pp. 165±194. A synthesis of two separate (and, according to Katkov, stylistically and factually discrepant) versions of the general's own account (one being a typescript in the possession of Katkov, the other being that published by V.L. Burtsev in the journal Obshchee delo in September 1917.

1440 Bienstock, J.-W. `La reÂvolution russe: Kornilov', Mercure de France Vol. 125 (1918), No. 469, pp. 5±28; No. 470, pp. 207±229. 1441 Collins, D. `General Kornilov and the Land of Kashgar: A Note', Soviet Studies Vol. 26 (1974), No. 2, pp. 274±275. The author confirms Kornilov's publication of an impressive, scholarly book on Kashgaria in 1903, subsequent to his posting there in 1899 to collect military-strategic information.

1436 Savinkoff, B. `L'Affaire Korniloff', Mercure de France Vol. 132 (1919), No. 499, pp. 385±407. The only non-Russian-language exposition of the author's version of events to have been published, this piece, written in response to Kerensky's Prelude to Bolshevism [1434], is predictably self-exculpatory. It is also notable for stressing the role of misunder-

the Kornilov movement. There is a particular concentration on the roles of industrial and financial circles in Moscow and Petrograd, whose mutual jealousies and consequent inability to cooperate, the author claims, were more responsible for the collapse of the conspiracy than the opposition of the Petrograd workers. See also the comment by D. N. Collins in Soviet Studies Vol. 21 (1970), No. 4, pp. 528±532, wherein doubt is cast upon White's assertion that Kornilov was `a military mediocrity'.

1443 Katkov, G. Russia, 1917: The Kornilov Affair ± Kerensky and the Break-up of the Russian Army. London: Longman, 1980. 210 pp. This monograph features some important new archival finds and a painstaking analysis of the accounts of contemporaries. The author stresses the role of personalities in the Kornilovshchina, presenting an all but complete exoneration of Kornilov and a swingeing attack upon Kerensky, while virtually ignoring evidence of the involvement of broader social groups. On the work see the review by K. Fitzlyon in the Times Literary Supplement No. 4076 (1981), p. 549. See also the subsequent debates and exchanges in the same organ: Flaherty, P. `The Kornilov Affair: A Comment on the Katkov Historiography of the Russian Revolution', Times Literary Supplement No. 4083 (1981), p. 757; Fitzlyon, K. `The Kornilov Affair: An Analysis of George Katkov's Russia 1917: The Kornilov Affair', Times Literary Supplement No. 4084 (1981), p. 785; and Katkov's reply in Times Literary Supplement No. 4087 (1981), p. 877.

1447 Wilcox, E. H. `Kerenski and Korniloff', Fortnightly Review No. 104 (1918), pp. 330±343, 502±517. Based largely on published statements by Kornilov, Filonenko, Alekseev and (especially) Savinkov, this commentary provides an early and quite useful statement of the events. The author blames Kerensky's `wild oscillations' between left and right for provoking the crisis. See also Kerensky, A. `Kerensky and Korniloff: A Reply', Fortnightly Review No. 104 (1918), pp. 830±849; and Wilcox's rejoinder in Fortnightly Review No. 105 (1919), pp. 159±160. 1448 Wildman, A. `Officers of the General Staff and the Kornilov Movement', in E. R. Frankel, J. Frankel and B. Knei-Paz (eds) Revolution in Russia: Reassessments of 1917. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 76±104. An admirable attempt to dispel the misconception that all officers supported Kornilov. Rather, the author claims, hard-core support for the Kornilov programme was limited to a fairly small group of senior commanders, nearly all of them colonels who had graduated from the Nicholas Academy of the general staff.

1444 Saul, N. E. `British Involvement in the Kornilov Affair', Rocky Mountain Social Science Journal Vol. 10 (1973), No. 1, pp. 43±50. The author examines the role of Major-General Charles Barter, the British staff liaison officer at the Russian stavka, who, in contrast to Ambassador Buchanan, openly supported Kornilov and led the Russian commander-in-chief to believe he had British backing. 1445 Strakhovsky, L. I. `Was There a Kornilov Rebellion? ± A Reappraisal of the Evidence', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 33 (1955), No. 81, pp. 372±395. A thought-provoking reply to the publications of Ascher [1438] and Warth [2658], in which Strakhovsky attempts to establish that `there was no ``plot'', no ``mutiny'', no ``rebellion'' ' and that `the real villain was not Kornilov, but Kerensky himself', to whom, it is alleged, personal ambition and `the dubious gains of the March revolution were dearer than the welfare, the future and the very existence of his country and its people'. The piece is based largely upon the proKornilov account to be found in Miliukov's History of the Russian Revolution [828].

The Foreign Policy of the Provisional Government and of the Soviets . 1460 Arguing from a Marxist standpoint, the author claims that in the policy of Miliukov regarding the Straits and in the circumstances of his replacement by Tereshchenko can be detected the influence of the Allies and the conflict of interest between the Petrograd (pro-Entente) and Moscow (indigenous) groups of the Russian bourgeoisie.

author ably demonstrates how and why it was only the chauvinist right of the movement which was prepared for the advent of war in 1914, and traces the divisions which rent the international socialist movement back to its inception.

1452 Fainsod, M. International Socialism and the World War. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1935. 238 pp. A masterful account, still valuable despite being dated in some respects, of how the First World War and the Russian Revolution shattered the Second International. Interesting light is thrown on the influence of Russian and other European socialist sentiment upon the framing of Wilson's Fourteen Points and the debates surrounding the proposed Stockholm Conference, while the latter sections of the book trace the origins and emergence of the Comintern through its founding congress. The work is based upon a wide range of primary and secondary source materials.

1457 HoÈlze, E. `Das Kriegsproblem in der russischen Revolution 1917', Osteuropa Vol. 12 (1962), No. 7, pp. 476±480. A brief discussion of the attitude of Russian political parties to the idea of a general, negotiated peace in 1917, inspired by Soviet historians' dismissal of the `bourgeois historiography' of the subject. 1458 Johnston, R. H. Tradition versus Revolution: Russia and the Balkans in 1917. New York: Columbia University Press, 1977. viii + 240 pp. More than its title promises, this extremely useful monograph provides a concise and comprehensive account of the foreign policy of the Provisional Government ± both in terms of the contribution of foreign-political matters to the transition from the February to the October Revolutions and in terms of Russia's relations with the Allies in 1917.

1453 Farbman, M. Russia and the Struggle for Peace. London: Allen & Unwin, 1920. 188 pp. An account of the fall of tsarism and of the attempts of the Provisional Government to effect a general peace which is sympathetic to the ideas of revolutionary defencism and harshly critical of the Allies.

1459 Kirby, D. `International Socialism and the Question of Peace: The Stockholm Conference of 1917', Historical Journal Vol. 25 (1982), No. 3, pp. 709±716. A brief but telling analysis of the motives and divisions of the promoters of the idea of the Stockholm Conference, focusing upon the negotiations during the spring of 1917 between the Petrograd Soviet and delegations of Western socialists (Cachin, Moutet, Thomas, Vandervelde, Henderson, etc.) and upon the visit to the West of the delegation of the Petrograd Soviet. In Kirby's opinion, Stockholm became `the final resting-place of the Second International'.

1454 Forster, K. The Failures of Peace: The Search for a Negotiated Peace during the First World War. Washington, DC: American Council on Public Affairs, 1941. 159 pp. Includes a substantial chapter (pp. 113±125) on the failure of the Stockholm Conference negotiations in 1917. 1455 Geyer, D. `Die russischen RaÈte und die Friedensfrage im FruÈjahr und Sommer 1917', Vierteljahrshefte fuÈr Zeitsgeschichte Vol. 5 (1957), No. 3, pp. 220±240. An excellent introduction to the peace policies of the parties of the Petrograd Soviet in 1917, focusing in particular upon the abortive Stockholm Conference.

1460 Kirby, D. War, Peace and Revolution: International Socialism at the Crossroads, 1914±1918. Aldershot: Gower, 1986. x + 310 pp. This lucid account of the complex and shifting groupings in the socialist world during the First World War and of the intricate discussions on theory and practice entered into by socialist leaders is based on a large number of published and unpublished sources in an impressive number of languages. As might be expected from this author, the material relating to socialism in the Scandinavian countries is particularly original; new light is also thrown on the prospective Stockholm Conference of 1917.

1461 Kusherov, S. `The Problem of Constantinople and the Straits', Russian Review Vol. 8 (1949), pp. 205±220. This survey of the Straits problem in Russian foreign policy from early times to 1946 focuses in particular upon the years 1914 to 1917 (including Miliukov and Tereshchenko's tenures as foreign minister).

Cologne: BoÈhlau Verlag, 1977. 331 pp. This admirable volume, based upon extensive research in German, French, Belgian, Danish, Finnish, Dutch, Austrian and Swedish archives, offers a detailed analysis of the attitudes towards the Provisional Government and the proposed Stockholm Conference of European majority and minority socialist groups.

In constructing this detailed, chronological account of the background to and course of the negotiations regarding the convention of an international socialist conference during the spring and summer of 1917, the author drew upon a very wide range of (chiefly) published French-, German- and English-language sources, including ComiteÂ organisateur de la ConfeÂrence socialiste internationale de Stockholm.

A somewhat rambling discussion, from the socialist point of view, of the impact of the war upon the working classes and socialist parties of Europe. Particular attention is paid to Russia and the Zimmerwaldist/Bolshevist line.

1463 Morris, L. P. `The Russians, the Allies and the War, February±July 1917', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 50 (1972), No. 1, pp. 29±48. This article traces the inspiration of the June offensive to a mixture of Allied pressure and extreme naivety with regard to the soldiers' willingness to fight on the part of Kerensky and other defencist ministers. The author also contends, on the basis of a study of British Foreign Office archives, that the Provisional Government's foreign policy, insofar as it attempted to mobilize world opinion to end the war, only aroused Allied suspicions and was consequently `based on false premises'.

1468 Wade, R. A. `Argonauts of Peace: The Soviet Delegation to Western Europe in the Summer of 1917', Slavic Review Vol. 26 (1967), No. 3, pp. 453± 467.

The author traces the origin of the `revolutionary defencist' strategy of the Petrograd Soviet and (for a time) the Provisional Government to the discussions at Irkutsk from 1914 to 1916 of a group of SR and Menshevik exiles, including I. G. Tsereteli, F. I. Dan, V. Voitinskii and A. R. Gots.

On the basis of Thomas's diary and his reports to Paris, the authors chart the political and diplomatic activity in Russia of the French socialist and minister of armaments in his attempt, in the months prior to the June offensive, to instil the Russian Army with a desire to fight until victory. The article includes some interesting photographs of Thomas at the front.

In garbled English and utilizing only published sources, the author investigates the attitudes of Russian and West European socialists and governments to the Stockholm Conference, concluding that opinions were so divided that even if the conference had met it would have achieved very little.

A useful survey of Russian historical works which appeared in the glasnost ' years of 1986 to 1990, together with some intelligent comment on areas still needing further investigation and clarification.

1473 Buldakov, V. P. `At the Sources of Soviet History: The Road to October', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 29 (1990±1991), No. 4, pp. 34±59. Written at the high tide of glasnost ', this is a sophisticated and interesting critique of orthodox Soviet historiography of the preconditions for the October Revolution, emphasizing the autonomous activity of the masses of workers, peasants and soldiers in 1917 as an antidote to dogmatic schema of Stalin's Short Course.

The author of the diary featured here, as Chief Intelligence Officer of the flagship of Rear-Admiral Rasvozov, the Commander of the Baltic Fleet, was ideally placed to record developments in the Gulf of Finland, and does so even-handedly but with great dramatic effect.

Ten Days That Shook the World (fwd. by Nikolai [V. I.] Lenin). New York: International Publishers, 1919. xxiv + 371 pp. Still the most famous book on the revolution (and rightly so), although hastily written and flawed by exaggeration and the occasional minor inaccuracy, the founding father of American communism's vivid personal narrative of the revolution conveys an unrivalled sense of immediacy. Lenin's introduction recommends the work `unreservedly' and, until the rise of Stalin (who is not mentioned once in the text), the work was adopted by the Soviet government as an unofficial textbook on the seizure of power.

See also Balabanoff, A. `John Reed's Last Days', Modern Monthly Vol. 10 (January 1937), pp. 3±6, in which the author, who was close to Reed before the latter's death in Moscow, relates Reed's arguments with Zinoviev, his disgust at the latter's demagogy and intrigue, and his disillusionment with the Comintern (all of which, she alleges, contributed to Reed's illness and death).

1482 Woytinsky, W. `The Gatchina Campaign (for the Anniversary of the Bolshevik Coup)', Soviet Studies Vol. 32 (1980), No. 2, pp. 260±279. The Menshevik author, Army Commissar of the Northern Front, was a direct participant in the formation of the `Gatchina detachment' and took part in its abortive advance on Petrograd of 26 October to 1 November 1917. In this unusual memoir, written a year after the events, he describes the formation of the detachment, its goals and the conditions of its surrender to the Bolsheviks. 1483 Zubov, Count V. `Gatchina ± October 1917' (transl. by A. Wiren), Russian Review Vol. 28 (1969), No. 3, pp. 289±302. These amusing memoirs of a scholar who seems to have been in charge of the palace at Gatchina are notable for their sarcastic and critical attitude to Kerensky and his attempt to muster Krasnov's Cossacks for an assault on Petrograd in the aftermath of the October Revolution.

Cross-checking a variety of Soviet published sources on the subject, relating to a variety of Russian and non-Russian regions, the author asserts that, contrary to the claim of Schapiro [3715] that the Red Guard numbered 200,000, there were no more than 70,000±100,000 Red Guards in Russia prior to the October Revolution.

that the activity of those classes, even prior to October, did more to determine the nature of the new Soviet state than did Bolshevik ideology. Unfortunately, as was the case with the proceeding volume, the work is marred by undisciplined use of source material and factual errors, although the translation was, on this occasion, acceptable. For an instructive and generally favourable review of the book see Girault, R. `Un historien d'aujourd'hui face aÁ la reÂvolution d'Octobre', Annales: eÂconomies, socieÂteÂs, civilisations Vol. 34 (1979), No. 4, pp. 868-392.

1487 Daniels, R. V. Red October: The Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. London: Secker and Warburg, 1967. 269 pp. An influential work (although very light on documentation), concentrating upon the activities of the Bolshevik leadership during the summer and autumn of 1917, which seeks to explode `the myth that the insurrection was timed and executed according to a deliberate plan'. Instead the author argues that, partly by chance and partly as a result of Lenin's fanatical and megalomaniacal leadership, the party `stumbled into power'. A summary is provided in Daniels, R. V. `The Bolshevik Gamble', Russian Review Vol. 26 (1967), No. 4, pp. 331±340. See also Daniels, R.

1489 Galperina, B. D. `The Petrograd Soviet in September±October 1917 (New Data)', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 23 (1984), No. 1, pp. 84±103. A Soviet historian's account, concentrating upon an analysis of the Bolsheviks' struggle to exclude `conciliators' (i.e., Mensheviks and SRs) from the leadership of the capital's Soviet. Unusually, Galperina maintains that this struggle did not end with the majority vote for the Bolsheviks of 31 August 1917, arguing instead that the Petrograd Soviet was by no means an unassailable Bolshevik `fortress' even by October. 1490 Geyer, D. `The Bolshevik Insurrection in Petrograd', in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 164±179. A perceptive interpretation, stressing the importance in the seizure of power of Trotsky's use of the institutions of the Petrograd Soviet as a shield of legitimacy. The author regards the events of 25 to 26 October as being `insignificant', presenting the Soviet's assertion of its sole power of command over the garrison on 23 October as the moment of capitulation for the Provisional Government. 1491 Goodspeed, D. J. `Petrograd in 1917', in The Conspirators: A Study of the Coup d'EÂtat. New York: Viking, 1962. pp. 70±107. An argument that the Bolshevik insurrection, in exhibiting careful planning and a narrow focus of attack, fits perfectly the definition of a coup d'eÂtat, as opposed to a social revolution.

1488 Ferro, M. October 1917: A Social History of the Russian Revolution (transl. by N. Stone). London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1980. xiv + 345 pp. As in the author's preceding volume [1353], the best part of this work is a consequence of the original research which went into chapters concerning the aspirations and activities of social and national groups in the build-up to October. Sections on political developments are heavily reliant on secondary sources, especially Daniels [1487] and Rabinowitch [1496]. Ferro takes the view that Bolshevism genuinely expressed the view of the lower classes and

A stimulating and extensive discussion of the origins and text of Lenin's letter to the members of the Bolshevik Central Committee, imploring them to seize power immediately, for `We cannot wait!!', and of the letter's treatment in Soviet and Western histories of the October Revolution. Appended is the text of the letter.

A narrative of Bolshevik activity in Petrograd from 1 September to 16 October 1917, based largely upon published Soviet sources, in which the author argues that Lenin had to compromise with the views of the majority of the party's central committee which was opposed to any attempt to form a government independent of the Second All-Russian Congress of Soviets.

1494 Nelson, H. W. `Trotsky and the Organization of the Petrograd Revolution', in H. W. Nelson Leon Trotsky and the Art of Insurrection. London: Frank Cass, 1988. pp. 108±124. A summary of Trotsky's part in the preparation and execution of the seizure of power, based largely on secondary literature.

1498 Saul, N. E. `Lenin's Decision to Seize Power: The Influence of Events in Finland', Soviet Studies Vol. 24 (1972±1973), No. 4, pp. 491±505. The author argues that it was Lenin's period of isolation in Finland from August to October 1917 which gave him a perspective on Russia from which he was able to draw the conclusion that revolution was both an immediate possibility and a necessity.

1495 Rabinowitch, A. `The Petrograd Garrison and the Bolshevik Seizure of Power', in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 172±191. An important analysis of developments from the July Days to the October Revolution, which finds that the significance of the garrison's role lies less in its positive military contribution to the Bolshevik victory than in the disastrous effects that its demoralization had upon Kerensky's attempts to re-establish public order and governmental authority in the capital.

1499 Service, R. `Lenin: Individual and Politics in the October Revolution', Modern History Review, Vol. 2 (1990) No. 1, pp. 16±19. The author of this brief article argues that the October Revolution was neither the work of one man nor a leaderless, popular upheaval, but a mixture of the two. 1500 Slavin, N. F. `On the Question of the Methods to be Used in the Struggle for the Transfer of Power to the Soviets after the Rout of the Kornilov Revolt', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 23 (1984), No. 1, pp. 56±83. A translation of an article by a Soviet historian in which the author, by examining the works of Lenin of late August and September 1917, addresses the question of how long Lenin held to be possible a peaceful development of the revolution in alliance with SRs and Mensheviks. He concludes that Lenin had abandoned hope in such a possibility by very early in September.

1496 Rabinowitch, A. The Bolsheviks Come to Power: The Revolution of 1917 in Petrograd. New York: W. W. Norton, 1976. xxxvi + 393 pp. One of the first works to attempt to reconstruct the `revolution from below' (albeit not entirely successfully, in that the author's sources obliged him to concentrate upon middle-level actors such as political organizations and, specifically, those of the Bolshevik Party), this well-written and thoroughly documented study of events in the capital from the aftermath of the July Days, through the Kornilov affair to the October Revolution, based upon the contemporary press and published documents,

October Beyond Petrograd . 1510 In this brief essay the noted biographer of Stalin, an eÂmigreÂ of Menshevik sympathies, asserts that any true analysis of the `Great October Socialist Revolution' `would not properly speak of a revolution, or of socialism, or of the proletariat', for what happened was `a military coup designed to incarcerate the proletariat and stave off socialism'. See also Souvarine, B. `October ± Myths and Realities', The New Leader (4 November 1957).

OCTOBER BEYOND PETROGRAD Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 1506 van Riper, B. W. `City Life under the Bolsheviks', Atlantic Monthly Vol. 123 (1919), pp. 176±185. Notes taken verbatim from a diary kept by the author, a YMCA representative in Moscow, which include an account of the fighting in that city during the crucial days of October to November 1917.

1502 Startsev, V. I. `The Question of Power in the October Days of 1917', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 27 (1988), No. 2, pp. 56±85. A doctrinaire Soviet account of Lenin's victory over forces within and without the Bolshevik Party in favour of an `all-socialist government', concentrating on the period 20 October to 4 November 1917.

1507 Tsvetaeva, M. `October on the Train (Notes from Those Days)' (transl. by J. Gambrell), Partisan Review Vol. 54 (1987), No. 4, pp. 517±526. The fictionalized autobiographical notes of the renowned poet and essayist's experiences on train journeys around Moscow during October and November of 1917.

1503 Startsev, V. I. `Lenin in October of 1917', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 27 (1988), pp. 86±113. An odd narrative, presented in the style of a piece of fiction, glorifying Lenin's thoughts and actions in the period 11 to 20 October 1917. The Soviet author is archly critical of the `obstructive' role of Trotsky.

Studies 1508 Hickey, M. C. `Paper, Memory and a Good Story: How Smolensk Got Its October', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 13 (2000), No. 2, pp. 1±19. An argument that Soviet accounts of the October events in Smolensk which attempt to tie its history to that of Petrograd and to legitimize Soviet rule offer only `a serious distortion of events'. The author finds this to be a consequence of the historical record having been based upon the memoirs of Bolsheviks who climbed the party ladder in the 1920s: thus, `memory changed the official myth, which [in turn] became popular memory'.

1504 Swain, G. `Before the Fighting Started: A Discussion of ``The Third Way'' ', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 4 (1991), No. 2, pp. 210±234. Focusing upon the moves taken by the AllRussian Railway Workers' Union (Vikzhel) to establish an all-socialist government in the immediate aftermath of the Bolshevik seizure of power, on the basis of Soviet archival materials the author argues that the chances of its success were good, that the threat of counter-revolution at the time was minimal, that the Vikzhel talks disarmed the more bellicose Right Socialists and that the union was `cheated of the fruits of its labours by Lenin's insistence on the need for arbitrary rule'.

1509 Jackson, G. D. `Spontaneity and Legitimacy in the October Revolution: The Moscow Insurrection as a Case Study', in R. C. Elwood (ed.) Reconsiderations on the Russian Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Slavica, 1976. pp. 42±80. Attempting to challenge the standard Western `liberal' and orthodox Soviet notions of legitimacy in the October Revolution, the author focuses on the revolution in Moscow, the result being a thoughtful and unusually detailed study of the growth of Bolshevik popularity outside of the cauldron of Petrograd and the success of the `Moscow week'.

1505 White, J. D. `Lenin, Trotsky and the Art of Insurrection: The Congress of Soviets of the Northern Region, 11±13 October 1917', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 77 (1999), No. 1, pp. 117±139. The author here suggests that, contrary to the received opinion that the CSNR led to nothing, it achieved `a great deal of substance towards bringing about the October Revolution and that it is a key event which led directly to the Bolshevik conquest of power'. Moreover, White argues, the CSNR highlights the divergent approaches to revolution being pursued by Lenin and Trotsky.

1510 Keep, J. `October in the Provinces' in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 180±216. A superb, if self-confessedly `introductory', survey of provincial Russian cities and towns, which, on the basis of published Soviet sources, finds `little validity in the stereotyped image of a ``triumphal march of 153

1511 . 9 The Revolutions of 1917 Soviet power'' ' and stresses instead the extent to which local leaders, isolated from the centre, `arrived at their own practical solutions to the question of power'.

An account of events in one of the few localities in which armed resistance to a Bolshevik take-over was attempted, based almost exclusively upon the rich first-hand reports published on 5 November 1917 in two journals ± the Kadets' Saratovskii listok and the independent Saratovskii vestnik.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 157±187. The contemporary press and published Soviet sources are utilized in this careful tracing of the events of October in the textile region to the northeast of Moscow, which was perhaps the strongest bastion of Bolshevism in Russia in 1917.

1513 Wade, R. A. `Revolution in the Provinces: Khar'kov and the Variety of Responses to the October Revolution', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 4 (1991), No. 1, pp. 132±142.

A largely unremarkable survey of Soviet writings published from 1919 to the early 1960s on the development of the Soviets as instruments of government, together with some suggestions as to areas which might require further research.

1518 Labry, R. Une leÂgislation communiste. Recueil des lois, deÂcrets, arreÃteÂs principaux, du gouvernement bolcheviste. Paris: Payot, 1920. xx + 588 pp. A fairly complete collection of government decrees to the end of 1918.

London: Jonathan Cape, 1974. 472 pp. Included in this collection are the key official decrees of 1917 to 1921 relating to government and administration, the party, the legal system, the peasantry and the land question and labour. Each document is briefly but informatively introduced by the editor.

London: Lawrence & Wishart, 1970. 186 pp. A useful collection of sixty-four key legislative acts passed VTsIK and Sovnarkom in the first nine months of Soviet power. The documents, mostly drawn from the first two volumes of Dekrety sovetskoi vlasti (Moscow: Nauka, 1957±1959), are translated, introduced and annotated by the compiler, a Soviet historian.

Hagberg Wright). London: Geoffrey Bles, 1929. pp. 283±298. Includes four documents from the period November to December 1917, relating to the failure of attempts to dislodge the Bolshevik reÂgime, the founding of the Cheka and the elections to the Constituent Assembly.

Paris: Bibl. de l'Inst. de droit compareÂ de Lyon, 1925±1935. 260 + 257 + 222 + 370 pp. Volume 1 of this series contains translations of many key pieces of early legislation (e.g., the Marriage Code of 1918). 1517 Keep, J.

London: Labour Publishing Co., 1923. 142 pp. A still useful early edition of the constitution of 10 July 1918, with extensive commentary by the editor. Also included in the volume are all amendments made to the constitution down to 1921 and the declaration of the Treaty of Union of 30 December 1922. 155

A good selection of early governmental decrees on all aspects of internal affairs. See also `The Russian Constitution', International Conciliation (1919), pp. 484±502.

This second, extended edition of a work which originally appeared in 1981 includes a new chapter on the relationship between the Bolshevik Party and the state and a new epilogue. The text, somewhat briefly but in a clearly written and fairly comprehensive manner, explores the revolutionary and post-revolutionary evolution of state organizations and statebuilding in Soviet Russia from the October Revolution to the Union Treaty of 1922.

Studies (General and Miscellaneous)

1527 Bach, L. Le Droit et les institutions de la Russie sovieÂtique. Paris: Librairie de la droit et de la jurisprudence, 1923. 338 pp. A detailed and fairly accurate description of the chief political and economic institutions of the early Soviet state.

1523 Abrams, R. `Political Recruitment and Local Government: The Local Soviets of the RSFSR, 1918±1921', Soviet Studies Vol. 19 (1968), No. 4, pp. 573±580. A brief but useful description of the Soviet executive committees of the RSFSR (in terms of their members' party affiliation, occupation, educational background, age and length of service), challenging the common assumptions that they were either a tool of the Bolshevik leadership or genuinely democratic institutions. The author's contention is, rather, that the Soviets performed an important `latent function', as recruitment centres for the new political eÂlite.

1528 Batsell, W. R. Soviet Rule in Russia. New York: Macmillan, 1929. 857 pp. In spite of its early date, this monumental historical study of the mechanism of government, based on Russian sources gathered during the author's several visits to the USSR, remains useful ± particularly for its judicious treatment of local and minority nationality affairs and for a substantial bibliographical chapter.

1524 Adelman, J. R. `The Development of the Soviet Party Apparat in the Civil War: Center, Localities, and Nationality Areas', Russian History Vol. 9 (1982), No. 1, pp. 86±110. On the basis of a mass of published Soviet materials, the author argues that `the nature of the revolution and the civil war, not Leninist theory and pre-revolutionary experiences, were decisive forces in the creation of the party machine by 1921'. The focus of the study is the role of local and nationality party organizations. See also Adelman. J. R. `The Impact of Civil Wars on Communist Political Culture: The Russian and Chinese Cases', Studies in Comparative Communism Vol. 16 (1983), Nos 1±2, pp. 25±48.

Hamburg: Drachen-Verlag, 1925. 132 pp. Following a brief account of the author's visit to Soviet Russia in 1923, is presented here a reasonably neutral guide to the major institutions and personalities of the early Soviet state. 1530 Berliner, H.

A comprehensive survey of the developing structure and functions of the party Secretariat from the death of Sverdlov to the appointment of Stalin as General Secretary. Included are sections on the Uchraspred, the Orgotdel, the Department for the Administration of Affairs, the Zhenotdel, the Rural Department, the Agitprop Department, Istpart and the Statodel, as well as overviews of the staff of the Secretariat.

1531 Best, H. The Soviet State and Its Inception. New York: Philosophical Library, 1950. vii + 448 pp. In part a history of the revolution, in part a sociological appraisal of post-revolutionary political, economic and cultural unsteadiness and practices, this shallow treatment, bearing the hallmark of having been written at the height of the cold war, has little to recommend it other than its extensive bibliography of Western works published from 1917 to 1950.

1533 Dobrin, S. `Some Questions of Early Soviet Legal History', Soviet Studies, Vol. 7 (1956), No. 4, pp. 353±371. These notes, inspired by Schapiro's The Origin of the Communist Autocracy [1556], cover the genesis of Democratic Centralism and the Democratic Centralist group, the powers of early governmental institutions (VTsIK and Sovnarkom) and the powers of the Cheka.

1539 Gronsky, P. P. `The Zemstvo System and Local Government in Russia, 1917±1922', Political Science Quarterly Vol. 38 (1923), pp. 554±568. An account of the Provisional Government's democratization of the zemstvo system in 1917 and of the Bolsheviks' subsequent destruction of the former system of local government.

Sverdlov and the AllRussian Central Executive Committee of Soviets: A Study in Bolshevik Consolidation of Power, October 1917±July 1918', Soviet Studies Vol. 31 (1979), No. 1, pp. 3±22. A careful tracing of Sverdlov's methods of isolating and outmanoeuvring Bolshevik and nonBolshevik opposition within the VTsIK during the various crises of the post-October period, with some concentration upon the debates surrounding the signing of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk.

Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1929. xvii + 401 pp. An extremely thorough and quite objective study of public institutions, the organization of the Communist Party, education, etc., this pioneering study includes a good bibliography (largely of Russianlanguage works). 1541 Heinzen, J. W. ` ``Alien'' Personnel in the Soviet State: The People's Commissariat of Agriculture under Proletarian Dictatorship, 1918±1929', Slavic Review Vol. 56 (1997), No. 1, pp. 73±100. Although primarily concerned with the 1920s, this examination of Narkomzem throws some light upon the problems faced by the Bolshevik reÂgime in attempting to extend the revolution to the countryside during the civil war years, as a consequence of the need to employ (in central and in local institutions) unreliable `bourgeois specialists' (i.e., former SRs) and peasants.

1535 Farber, S. Before Stalinism: The Rise and Fall of Soviet Democracy. Oxford: Polity Press in association with Basil Blackwell, 1990. xiii + 288 pp. Part history and part theoretical discussion, this volume (which is based almost entirely upon published English-language sources) examines the period 1917 to 1923, using the early Soviet experience as the springboard for the author's generalized ruminations on such matters as workers' control and trade unions, freedom of the press and socialist legality.

Paris: Jouve, 1927. 308 pp. A description and analysis of the origin and nature of the soviets as instruments of political authority from 1905 through the revolutions of 1917 and under the Bolshevik reÂgime, explaining also the electoral systems of village and city soviets.

1536 Ferro, M. `The Birth of the Soviet Bureaucratic System', in R. C. Elwood (ed.) Reconsiderations on the Russian Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Slavica, 1976. pp. 100±132. An interesting (if somewhat conventional) discussion which argues, `in contrast to Trotskyite and antiBolshevik interpretations', that `the Soviet reÂgime was just as much a child of the revolution itself as it was the product of earlier Bolshevism which reinforced those traits'. The author examines shifts in constitutional power, the bureaucratization process and the place of the Bolsheviks in this context.

1543 Landau, G. `The Soviet Regime', in J. Bickerman (ed.) Ten Years of Bolshevik Domination. Berlin/ Schoneberg: S. Scholem, 1928. pp. 19±49. A fervently anti-Bolshevik review of the system in power and its origins.

1545 . 10 The Soviet State majority of writings on Lenin, in this important history of the Bolshevik Party and the Soviet state he places the principles and policies of Lenin within the historical circumstances that shaped them, arguing that Lenin did not intend for the party to rule in an authoritarian manner but that the chaotic and hostile environment in which the Bolsheviks found themselves after 1917 unleashed their latent authoritarian qualities.

November 1917 to the closing of the assembly on 5 January 1918, noting that the events of that day, when the Bolsheviks `made it abundantly clear that they intended to pay no heed to the popular will . . . were in many respects more important for Russia than the Bolshevik coup'. 1549 Pliutto, P. A. `Alexander Bogdanov on the Period of ``War Communism'' ', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 5 (1992), No. 1, pp. 46±52. A brief review of Bogdanov's analysis of the influence of war upon the emergence of authoritarian reÂgimes ± a thesis he originally put forward as early as December 1917.

1550 Priestland, D. `Bolshevik Ideology and the Debate over Party±State Relations, 1918±1921', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 10 (1997), No. 2, pp. 37±61. A careful and stimulating analysis of the debates between the party leadership and various groups on `the Left' (i.e., the Left Communists, the Military Opposition, the Democratic Centralists and the Workers' Opposition). The author seeks in particular to explain the apparent contradiction between the latter groups' attacks on the centralization of power and the growth of bureaucracy and their demands that party institutions be strengthened.

1546 Orlovsky, D. T. `State Building in the Civil War Era: The Role of the Lower-Middle Strata', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G. Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 180±209. A fascinating and virtually unique exploration of `a key, if neglected, cause of the Bolshevik victory in the Civil War', the dynamic ± perhaps even predominant, argues the author ± role of the petty bourgeois whitecollar employees (the sluzhashchie) in politics and state administration during the years 1917 to 1921.

This important analysis of the developments in the largest and most populous administrative unit in Petrograd seeks to demonstrate ± through extensive citation of primary source materials ± the extent to which popular democratic government at local level was attempted and realized (albeit in an unplanned, unsystematic manner) in revolutionary Russia before the civil war emergency of June 1918, while noting that the process of the centralization of authority and the subverting of the power of local organs was less a consequence of a deliberate plan on the part of higher authorities than the outcome of personnel shortages and other emergencies at local level. The analysis is extended (rather more sketchily) to the autumn of 1919 in Rabinowitch, A. `The Petrograd First City District Soviet during the Civil War', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G. Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 133±157.

On the basis of the perceptions announced by Bolshevik leaders at the time, the author challenges the orthodox historical view of the development of the central institutions of the state on three grounds: he suggests that inter-institutional relations were more complex than a simple Central Committee± Sovnarkom diarchy; that the impact of Bolshevik ideology on the process has been overestimated; and that the role of Lenin has been exaggerated.

1553 Rigby, T. `The First Proletarian Government', British Journal of Political Science Vol. 4 (1974), pp. 37±51. A study of the origins, structure and operation of the Military Revolutionary Committee of the Petrograd Soviet in the period October to December 1917. The author contends, on the basis of published Soviet sources, that the MRC, although not designed as an organ of post-revolutionary rule, `was the key such organ for something like six weeks after the seizure of power'. 1554 Rigby, T. H. Lenin's Government: Sovnarkom, 1917±1922. London: Cambridge University Press, 1979. xvi + 320 pp. An impeccably scholarly, factual account of the inception of the Council of People's Commissars and of its functioning, staffing and activities prior to its being eclipsed by the party organs in the early 1920s. The author emphasizes the complexity of party± government relations in the period. His general thesis is that Lenin's preoccupation with minute details of government was a cause of Sovnarkom's inability to cope with larger problems. See also Rigby, T. H. `The Birth of the Council of People's Commissars', Australian Journal of Politics and History Vol. 20 (1974), No. 1, pp. 70±75.

1560 Barfield, R. `Lenin's Utopianism: State and Revolution', Slavic Review Vol. 30 (1971), No. 1, pp. 45±56. The author argues that the `utopian notions' of the work are not anomalous with the main body of Lenin's work because State and Revolution represents not a plan for immediate action but a `theoretical work, looking into the future', which is quite consistent with its author's `fundamental philosophy of man, his inner convictions of human nature, his ideals for a more humane world'.

1556 Schapiro, L. B. The Origin of the Communist Autocracy: Political Opposition in the Soviet State. First Phase, 1917±1922. London: G. Bell & Sons, 1955. xv + 397 pp. The core of this influential work, one of the most forceful arguments of the `totalitarian' school of Soviet historiography, examines the fate under the Soviet reÂgime of the principal non-Communist revolutionary parties (especially the Mensheviks, the Left-SRs and the SRs), as well as describing the principal dissenting groups within the Communist Party (notably the Left Communists and the Military Opposition). Included also is a chapter on the Kronstadt rebellion. For a critique, see the review

London: New Left Books, 1972, pp. 219±228. An examination of the main themes of State and Revolution within the context of Lenin's antiKautsky polemics, which notes that `at first impression, the text seems an implacable but sectarian essay, primitive, steeped in ``Asiatic fury'' ± a kind of hymn to ``violence for violence's sake'' '. 159

An early, critical review of Lenin's writings on the destruction of the bourgeois state and on the withering away of the socialist state, with most emphasis on State and Revolution and The Soviets at Work.

Power and Policy in the Soviet Union: Essays Dedicated to Leonard Schapiro. New York: St Martin's Press, 1980. pp. 32±56. The author contrasts the conception of the postrevolutionary state held by leading Bolsheviks in 1916 and 1917, which he terms `radical direct democracy', with the model emphasizing state power, management, efficiency and planning advocated by Bukharin by 1920. See also Harding, N. `Socialism, Society and the Organic Labour State', in The State in Socialist Society. London: Macmillan, 1984. pp. 1±50.

1563 Daniels, R. V. `The State and Revolution: A Case Study in the Genesis and Transformation of Communist Ideology', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 12 (1953), No. 1, pp. 22±43. In this influential article the author, who regards State and Revolution as `an aberration' and as `a monument to [Lenin's] intellectual deviation during the year of revolution', traces the work's origins in the ideas of Marx, Engels and Bukharin, as well as its place in post-revolutionary Soviet ideology. For a critique see Medalie, R. J. `The Communist Theory of the State', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 18 (1959), No. 4, pp. 510±525.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 287±303. The author contends that, aware of the backwardness of Russian industry, Lenin's aim in 1917 was not the establishment of the dictatorship of the proletariat, as conceived by Marx and Engels, but something far more modest: `It was no more than to consummate the democratic revolution in the most radical conceivable way', in anticipation of a gradual transition to socialism as revolutions occurred in the West.

1564 Downs, R. B. `Nikolai Lenin's The State and Revolution', in Moulders of the Modern World: 111 Books That Shaped Western Civilization. New York: Barnes and Noble, 1961. pp. 356±368. An unremarkable consideration of State and Revolution as a major contribution to Marxist theory.

1569 Ionescu, G. `Lenin, the Commune and the State: Thoughts for a Centenary', Government and Opposition Vol. 5 (1970), No. 2, pp. 131±165. Written to mark the centenary of Lenin's birth, this theoretical discussion of Lenin's thought argues that the state created by the Bolsheviks in 1917 was based upon irreconcilable contradictions.

1565 Ehrenberg, J. `Class Politics and the State: Lenin and the Contradictions of Socialism', Science and Society Vol. 59 (1995), No. 3, pp. 437±463. Tracing Lenin's views on the state to the writings of Marx and Engels, the author seeks to adumbrate the contradictions of the Soviet project and to demonstrate how some particulars of it resulted from the specific circumstances of the Russian revolution while some were derived from theoretical concerns.

1570 Lerner, M. `Lenin's The State and Revolution', in M. Cowley and B. Smith (eds) Books That Changed Our Minds. New York: Kelmscott, 1939, pp. 195±216. Lerner discusses Lenin's accumulation of the information which formed the basis of State and Revolution and notes the work's intellectual strengths, while providing a critique of what he considers to be its deficiencies and contradictions.

1566 Evans, A. B. `Rereading Lenin's State and Revolution', Slavic Review Vol. 46 (1987), No. 1, pp. 1±19. This interesting piece describes the purposes Lenin sought to achieve in writing State and Revolution (namely, the claiming of `the mantle of international leadership in the interpretation of the teachings of Marx and Engels'), while maintaining that a careful reading of the text reveals it to be far from the utopian, semi-anarchistic treatise hostile to authority it is generally made out to be. Rather, claims the author, it is permeated with ideas of eÂlitism, hierarchy and centralization.

1571 Levine, N. `Lenin's Utopianism', Studies in Soviet Thought Vol. 30 (1985), No. 2, pp. 95±107. An examination of the roots, in Marx and Engels, of Lenin's thought on the state (especially as revealed in State and Revolution). The author argues that `when Lenin did not understand the marxist idea of politics and governance, he lost the intellectual apparatus necessary to construct a marxist theory of the state'.

New York: International Review, 1938, 62 pp. Included in this volume are three essays by the Menshevik leader, written in 1918 and 1919, in which he argued that the Soviet state constituted not a dictatorship of the proletariat but a party dictatorship over the people.

that it and other works published in 1917 (and often regarded as opportunistic) were prepared well before the February Revolution, and argues that, far from being inspired only by developments in Russia, the work hinges on Lenin's interpretation of international events. 1578 Theen, H. W. `The Idea of the Revolutionary State: Tkachev, Trotsky, and Lenin', Russian Review Vol. 31 (1972), No. 4, pp. 383±397. The author suggests some affinities between the revolutionary thought of Tkachev, Trotsky and Lenin, setting them against the background of `the legacy of ambivalence in regard to the institution of the state' common to much of the radical Russian intelligentsia of the nineteenth century.

1573 Miliband, R. `The State and Revolution', in P. M. Sweezy and H. Magdoff (eds) Lenin Today: Eight Essays on the Hundredth Anniversary of Lenin's Birth. New York: Monthly Review Press, 1970. pp. 77±90. An examination of State and Revolution, interpreting it as more anarchist than Marxist in inspiration and criticizing Lenin's failure to establish clearly the type of state consistent with the exercise of socialist power.

THE CHEKA AND THE RED TERROR

1574 NuÈrnberger, R. `Lenins Revolutionstheorie, Eine Studie uÈber Staat und Revolution', Marxismusstudien Vol. 3 (1954), No. 3, pp. 161±172. A brief but interesting discussion, emphasizing Lenin's specific contribution to the Marxist tradition in State and Revolution's portrait of the `morning after' the (or a) revolutionary insurrection.

Boulder, CO: Westview Press, 1985. xi + 203. pp. A listing of books and articles, with brief summaries and indications of reliability, divided into five sections: bibliographies and reference works; Russian and Soviet accounts; defector or first-hand accounts; secondary accounts; Congressional and other governmental documents. Most of the items listed are of relevance only to the post-revolutionary period, but the volume does include many useful references to the `Trust' operation of the early 1920s intended to ensnare prominent eÂmigreÂs.

1576 Sawyer, M. `The Genesis of State and Revolution', Socialist Register (1977), pp. 209±227. The author argues that the tension existing between Lenin's utopian writings of 1917 and the organizational beliefs he expressed both before and after this period `arose from a personal reappraisal of Marxist theory (a reappraisal which predated the February Revolution), rather than from a purely tactical grasp of the revolutionary possibilities entailed by the collapse of Tsarist Russia'.

1581 Zorin, L. (comp.) Soviet Prisons and Concentration Camps: An Annotated Bibliography, 1917± 1980. Newtonville, MA: Oriental Research Partners, 1980. 118 pp. Contains 485 entries (including memoirs and scholarly articles and books as well as fiction, in many languages), the majority of them annotated, arranged chronologically by year of publication, with title and author indexes. However, the volume's coverage of the early years is exceedingly thin.

1577 Slatter, J. `Lenin and the Commune State: The State and Revolution in Context', Irish Slavonic Studies Vol. 2 (1981), pp. 47±68. The author views the work, together with other of Lenin's writings from 1914 to 1919, as exemplifying a single important stage in Lenin's ideological development, not a pipe-dream but `a practical project for realization after the revolution, a project which is central to the whole Marxist tradition'. He notes also 161

Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1967. xi + 276 pp. A collection of documents drawn from the holdings of the Hoover Institution, illustrating Bolshevik labour policies under War Communism. Unfortunately, the materials seem to have been selected to highlight all the most objectionable aspects of Bolshevik ideology and policy, with the accompanying commentaries hardly even referring to the impact upon those policies of the civil war.

1613 Gerson, L. D. The Secret Police in Lenin's Russia. Philadelphia: Temple University Press, 1976. xvi + 332 pp. A meticulously documented monograph, organized topically rather than chronologically and minutely detailing the development of the organizational structure and spheres of activity of the Cheka, with strong emphasis on the role of Lenin in sponsoring and encouraging its ruthless disregard for legal procedures. The value of this work is only partially undermined by its unswervingly anti-Bolshevik, polemical tone. 1614 Goul, R. Les MaõÃtres de la tcheÂka. Histoire de la terreur en URSS de 1917 aÁ 1938.

An interesting comparative analysis, drawing upon materials from the Russian archives. The author seeks to describe the underlying ethos which motivated Bolshevik surveillance and to demonstrate how some Soviet practices elaborated on the established techniques of the tsarist reÂgime (particularly those developed during the Great War) and paralleled similar measures by anti-Bolshevik movements during the civil war (notably those in the Don region). Horizontal comparisons are also made with other European experiences.

Some of the material is summarized in Legget, G. `Lenin, Terror and the Political Police', Survey Vol. 21 (1975), No. 4, pp. 157±187; Legget, G. `Lenin's Reported Destruction of the Cheka Archive', Survey Vol. 24 (1979), No. 2 (107), pp. 193±199; and Legget, G. `The Cheka and a Crisis of Communist Conscience', Survey Vol. 25 (1980), pp. 122±137.

Arguing that the revolutionary violence of the civil-war period and the 1920s was a direct consequence of the violence sanctioned by the Bolsheviks in 1917, the author contends that in early Soviet Russia killing became `an act of rescue and salvation, legitimized by the new state'.

Regarding as partial Solzhenitsyn's claim that Stalin's Gulag developed from the embryo established by Lenin and the Cheka, the author notes that the Bolsheviks' revolutionary enthusiasm during the civil-war period gave rise to another, more progressive and more lenient penal policy, which gained the predominant position in the NEP years as a consequence of the RSFSR criminal code of 1922.

A brief survey of the materials to be found in Direktivy Kommandovaniia frontov Krasnoi armii (1917±1922), Vol. 4. Moscow: Voenizdat, 1978.

1671 KoÈstenberger, R. Mit der Roten Armee durch Russisch-Zentral Asien. Graz: Verlag von Ulr. Mosers Buchhandlung, 1925. 146 pp. This interesting memoir tells of its Austrian author's service in the Red Army from early 1918 to April 1919, following years of imprisonment in Turkestan. The account is notable for detail it provides on the part played by prisoners of war in Red Army units and for its suggestion that they tended to volunteer because the Bolsheviks had signed a peace with Germany, whereas the Whites remained loyal to the Allies.

1667 Parrish, M. The Soviet Armed Forces: Books in English, 1950±1967. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1970. 119 pp. This volume lists 2,146 publications relating to Soviet military history, but being organized only by subject, rather than by period, and containing only an author index, its use presents difficulties for the historian of the revolutionary period. Moreover, the overwhelming majority of entries relate to the postSecond World War period.

1672 Malkov, P. Reminiscences of a Kremlin Commandant. Moscow: Progress Publishers, n.d. [1960], 316 pp. 169

1673 . 10 The Soviet State An account of the author's service as commandant of the Smolny in Petrograd in 1917 and of the Moscow Kremlin from 1918 to 1919.

1673 Reissner, L. `Sviajsk', Cahiers Leon Trotsky Vol. 12 (1982), pp. 51±64. The noted female Bolshevik and journalist's observations of the battle of Sviiazhsk on the Eastern Front at the end of August 1918. This was the scene of a decisive Red Army victory, inspired by Trotsky, over the People's Army of Komuch.

1677 Benvenuti, F. The Bolsheviks and the Red Army, 1918±1922 (transl. by C. Woodall). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1988. viii + 264 pp. A somewhat misleadingly entitled but nonetheless pioneering study of the `military policy' of the Bolsheviks ± i.e., of intra-Party debates regarding the internal reÂgime of the Red Army and its institutional place within the Soviet state. The volume throws particular light upon how the demands of the civil-war army brought Trotsky into frequent conflict with elements of the Party. From the basis of his own reading of published accounts and documents, it is the author's contention that Soviet military policy was `less clear-cut, unswerving and consistent than contemporary Soviet and Western historians tend to suggest'.

Studies 1674 Adelman, J. R. `Origins of the Difference in Political Influence of the Soviet and Chinese Armies: The Officer Corps in the Civil Wars', Studies in Comparative Communism Vol. 10 (1977), No. 4, pp. 347±369. Examining the roles of voenspetsy (senior and junior), temporary junior officers, ex-NCOs, new and old revolutionary commanders and partisans in the officer corp of the Red Army during the civil war, the author finds that the Red Army's officer corps, lacking a gestation period and being created on the battlefield, was composed of `very heterogeneous and often antagonistic elements' and proved `exceptionally weak and ineffectual'. This, Adelman claims, can explain the Army's minimal political influence in the post-civil-war period in comparison to the Chinese case. See also Adelman, J. R. `The Formative Influence of the Civil Wars: Societal Roles of the Soviet and Chinese Armies', Armed Forces and Society Vol. 5 (1978), No. 1, pp. 93±116; Adelman, J.

Concentrating upon a little-known mutiny in the western Ukraine of late September 1920, the author of this useful counterpoint to von Hagen [1694] concludes, on the basis of research conducted in the Red Army archives, that the gloomy view of political work in the First Cavalry Army presented in Isaac Babel's Konarmiia [5862] was no figment of the artist's imagination. 1679 Butson, T. G. The Tsar's Lieutenant: The Soviet Marshal. New York: Praeger, 1984. vii + 281 pp. A poorly written and unhistorical account of the military career of M. N. Tukhachevskii.

An examination of how Frunze's command posts during the civil-war era shaped his ideas about military theory and of how his subsequent debates with Trotsky (from 1921 to 1922) `hardened them into dogma'.

1680 Collins, D. N. `The Russian Red Guard of 1917 and Lenin's Utopia', Journal of Russian Studies No. 31 (1976), pp. 3±12. The author argues that, in respect of the Red Guard, genuine efforts were made by the Bolsheviks in the first months after the October Revolution to realize an aspect of the Commune State ± i.e., the arming of the whole population, as envisaged in Lenin's State and Revolution.

1676 Bayer, A. B. The Evolution of the Soviet General Staff, 1917±1941. New York: Garland Press, 1987. 249 pp.

The Red Army . 1690 A study of civil±military relations during the civil war, concentrating on the `Tsaritsyn Affair' of the summer and autumn of 1918 and the debate over strategy on the Eastern Front of May to July 1919. Colton finds that, contrary to the usual Western image, `the key division was not between army and party . . . but between mixed groups of commanders and party workers marked off from one another by locational and task-related boundaries'.

Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1944. xiv + 486 pp. This excellent study of the organization and evolution of the Red Army, by a former officer of the Imperial and White armies, includes chapters on `Bolshevik Forces before November 1917', `The Early Days of the Soviet ReÂgime', `The Red Army and the Civil War', and `Kronstadt'. The author's aim was to provide `an analysis of the Red Army, as a study of conflicts and conflict situations within it' and, as such, he provides especially detailed coverage of the role of military specialists and commissars during the civil-war period.

1683 Ellis, J. `The Russian Civil War, 1917±1920', in J. Ellis Armies in Revolution. London: Croom Helm, 1973. pp. 163±199. Although based exclusively on secondary sources and the published writings of Trotsky, this chapter provides a good, concise discussion of the idea of a proletarian army, Bolshevik ideas and policies regarding the role of partisan warfare and the service of military specialists, the drive for a regular army, and the Military Opposition.

1688 Fervacque, P. Le Chef de l'armeÂe rouge, MikhaõÈl Toukhatchevski. Paris: Fasquelle, 1927. 197 pp. An early, unannotated biography, containing episodes from Tukhachevskii's life from the period 1916 to 1924. The volume includes some interesting material on Tukhachevskii's experiences as a prisoner of war, but is not entirely reliable.

1689 Figes, O. `The Red Army and Mass Mobilization during the Russian Civil War, 1918±1920', Past and Present Vol. 129 (1990), pp. 168±211. A thought-provoking detailed analysis, based partly upon Soviet archival sources, of the problems of supply, discipline and desertion posed for the Red Army, as a consequence of its reliance upon the mass conscription of peasants. The unreliability of the latter, the author concludes, meant that the Red Army could only defeat the more effective White forces by overwhelmingly outnumbering them.

1685 Erickson, J. `Some Military and Political Aspects of the ``Militia Army'' Controversy, 1919± 1920', in C. Abramsky (ed.) Essays in Honour of E. H. Carr. London: Macmillan, 1974. pp. 204±228. Largely on the basis of published Soviet accounts, the author provides a chronological exposition and analysis of the debates over the nature of the military organization which was proper for a socialist state ± debates which he characterizes as an `unavoidable collision between principle and practicality'. 1686

1690 Fischer, A. `Die AnfaÈnge der Roten Armee 1917/1918.

1697 Jacobs, W. D. Frunze: The Soviet Clausewitz, 1885±1925. The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1969. xii + 231 pp. This volume is not the biography its title promises ± only sixteen pages are devoted to Frunze's life ± but is, rather, a study of Frunze as the architect of the `unified military doctrine' and of his 1920s debates with Trotsky on questions of Red Army organization and tactics.

1693 Glantz, D. M. The Military Strategy of the Soviet Union ± A History. London: Frank Cass, 1992. viii + 360 pp. Included in this volume is one brief chapter (pp. 5±28) on `The Civil War and Military Intervention', surveying the military policy, doctrine and strategy of the Red Army during those years and concluding that `in essence, Frunze's 1920s dictum concerning the wartime unity of front and rear was born during the heat of the Civil War'.

1698 Jansen, M. `International Class Solidarity or Foreign Intervention? Internationalists and Latvian Riflemen in the Russian Revolution and the Civil War', International Review of Social History Vol. 31 (1986), pp. 68±79. A brief survey of the part played by the Latvian Riflemen and other internationalist units in the civil war, together with a refutation of the assertions of certain eÂmigreÂs (among them Solzhenitsyn) that their participation was so extensive as to have given the revolution the character of a `foreign invasion'.

1694 von Hagen, M. Soldiers in the Proletarian Dictatorship: The Red Army and the Soviet Socialist State, 1917±1930. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1990. xviii + 369 pp. An excellent scholarly investigation of the political, social and cultural aspects of the Red Army's development, based largely upon published Soviet sources. The author emphasizes the role of the Army as an institution of socialization for the Soviet reÂgime and devotes over half the volume to the period February 1917 to December 1922. See also von Hagen, M. `Civil±Military Relations and the Evolution of the Soviet State', Slavic Review Vol. 50 (1991), No. 2, pp. 268±276.

A revealing investigation of the various motives and circumstances which influenced 56,000 exofficers of the Imperial Army to serve in the Red Army by 1921. The author concludes that the most significant factor was `the simple fact of the Soviet regime's survival as a strong, de facto government', which allowed the Bolsheviks to `depend upon the old military professionals' nationalism and sense of duty'. The article includes extensive bibliographical notes. It was subsequently republished in D. R. Jones (ed.) Soviet Armed Forces Review Annual, Vol. 1. Gulf Breeze, FL: Academic International Press, 1977. pp. 176±187.

1695 Hajdu, T. `Plans of Strategic Cooperation between the Russian and Hungarian Red Armies', in P. Pastor (ed.) Revolutions and Interventions in Hungary and Its Neighbour States, 1918±1919. Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1988. pp. 367±375. A brief account, by a Hungarian historian, of attempts at co-ordinated action in the spring of 1919 by the forces of Bela Kun and the Red Army, noting that Antonov-Ovseenko and Rakovski `overestimated the Hungarian army to the same extent as the Hungarians overestimated the possibilities of the Ukrainian Red Army'.

The Red Army . 1709 military-political thinking, both theoretical and practical, and in particular with regard to the decision to employ military specialists (voenspetsy) in the Red Army in 1918.

Apparatus in Combatting Illiteracy during the Russian Civil War (1918±1921)', Journal of Slavic Military Studies Vol. 9 (1996), No. 3, pp. 594±616. Making good use of published Soviet materials, the author seeks to establish that, despite difficulties, the creation and development of the school system in the Red Army `was successful in significantly bringing down the overall level of illiteracy in the Red Army', and that the Bolsheviks viewed this as an excellent means of moulding a socialist consciousness among the populace.

1701 Kruzhin, P. `Lenin and the Soviet Armed Forces', Studies on the Soviet Union Vol. 10 (1970), No. 1, pp. 19±36. The author argues that, far from being `the omnipresent, omniscient genius presented by the Soviet press', Lenin `was at no time an original military theoretician', and that he made numerous strategic mistakes during the revolution and the civil war (notably encouraging the complete destruction of the old army after October and utilizing excessive force against peasant resistance to War Communism), before presenting a concise account of the confused origins of the Red Army and of Lenin's patchy record of military decision-making during the civil war.

1705 Makhine, T. H. L'ArmeÂe rouge: la puissance militaire de l'URSS. Paris: Payot, 1938. 356 pp. The author of this pioneering and quite objective study (which deals at some length with the Red Army's civil-war origins) was, surprisingly, a former White officer. 1706 Maksudov `La composition nationale de l'armeÂe rouge d'apreÁs le recensement de 1920', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 24 (1983), No. 4, pp. 483±492.

1702 Main, S. J. `The Red Army during the Russian Civil War, 1918±1920: The Main Results of the August 1920 Military Census', Journal of Slavic Military Studies Vol. 7 (1994), No. 4, pp. 800±808. In this brief but useful survey the author uses some scattered references to the 1920 census in early Soviet publications to present a breakdown of the age, sex, social background, etc. of Red Army soldiers and officers towards the end of the civil war. He also offers some comparisons with the Red Navy.

1708 Odom, W. E. `Bolshevik Ideas on the Military's Role in Modernization', Armed Forces and Society Vol. 3 (1976), No. 1, pp. 103±120. A review of the ideological preconceptions regarding the modernizing potentiality of the military brought from the party's past, the Bolsheviks' perceptions of technological and cultural backwardness in Russia, and the party's attitudes toward the Red Army as an instrument of social transformation in the early years of Soviet power.

J. `Pragmatism in the Face of Adversity: The Bolsheviks and the Academy of the General Staff of the Red Army during the Russian Civil War, 1918±1921', Journal of Slavic Military Studies Vol. 8 (1995), No. 2, pp. 333±355. Utilizing contemporary published materials (notably the journal of the General Staff Academy for the years 1918 to 1921), the author examines the background to the creation of the Academy in October 1918 and presents data concerning the political affiliations, educational qualifications, military experience, etc. of the four annual course intakes of the years of the civil war.

1709 Rapoport, V. and Alexeev, U. [pseuds] High Treason: Essays on the History of the Red Army, 1918±1938 (co-ed. and transl. by V. G. Treml). Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 1985. xvii + 436 pp. The manuscript of this work, a samizdat publication by two amateur historians, was smuggled out of the USSR in the late 1970s by an American student. The volume consists of a series of essays, six of them (and, disappointingly, the six least important)

Bolshevik Domination. Berlin/Schoneberg: S. Scholem, 1928. pp. 228±244. An early eÂmigreÂ account which unfavourably compares the institutions and organization of the Red Army with those of its imperial predecessor, while nevertheless concluding that the Red Army was the most successful of Soviet institutions.

Berlin/ Wiesbaden: Otto Harrassowitz, 1965. 265 pp. An exemplary scholarly study of the influence of Marx and Engels's teachings on the military lessons of the Paris Commune upon the military thought of Lenin and of Trotsky's role in the building of an army of a more traditional, hierarchical type in 1918.

The Red Army: A Study of the Growth of Soviet Imperialism (transl. by C. W. Sykes). London: Secker and Warbuck, 1940. 400 pp. A still useful, if overtly hostile, survey by a German expert who had served in the Red Army in its formative years, which includes chapters on the civil-war period. Parts of this book appeared earlier as Wollenberg, E. The Red Army. London: Secker and Warbuck, 1938. 283 pp.

1713 Swain, G. `The Disillusioning of the Revolution's Praetorian Guard: The Latvian Riflemen, Summer±Autumn 1918', Europe±Asia Studies Vol. 51 (1999), No. 4, pp. 667±686. Addressing the origins of the gulf between the communist leadership and the bulk of the Latvian population (which led to the collapse of the Soviet republic there in the spring of 1919), the author suggests that the gulf was already apparent in the summer and autumn of 1918 among the ranks of the Latvian Riflemen, who had become disillusioned with the revolution. Utilizing materials from the Latvian archives, Swain further traces this disillusionment to Lenin's assault on the `kulak slogans of the Left-SRs', and examines its deleterious impact upon the morale and fighting capacity of the unit.

THE KOMSOMOL AND REVOLUTIONARY YOUTH 1719 Cornell, R. Revolutionary Vanguard: The Early Years of the Communist Youth Movement, 1914±1924. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1982. xvi + 353 pp. Although the author traces the subordination of the Communist Youth Movement to the interests of the Soviet state, in this work his central concern is the nature of Communism and the book's purpose is to examine this as it was reflected in the experience of the Communist Youth International (with particular attention being focused on the years 1919 to 1922). See also Cornell, R. Youth and Communism: A Historical Analysis of International Communist Youth Movements. New York: Walker, 1965. 239 pp.

11 Soviet Society STUDIES (GENERAL AND MISCELLANEOUS)

Period', Slavic Review Vol. 47 (1988), No. 4, pp. 599±613. In this stimulating analysis of the relationship between the embryonic Soviet state and the fluid working class of the revolutionary years, the author's contention is that, being bound at a time of crisis to take actions that would alienate the working class, `the Bolsheviks had to find new ways of justifying their status as the vanguard of the proletariat or else devise a new definition of their right to rule'. Particular attention is paid to the role of the Proletkul't movement. The article is followed by two commentaries ± Suny, R. G. `Class and State in the Early Soviet Period: A Reply to Sheila Fitzpatrick (pp. 614±619), and Orlovsky, D. `Social History and Its Categories' (pp. 620±623) ± and a reply to them by Fitzpatrick (pp. 624±626).

Bloomington, IN: Indiana University Press, 1997. pp. 162±176. Utilizing a range of published sources, the author examines the mixture of utopian and pragmatic aims which led the Bolsheviks to champion communal dining during the civil-war period. Borrero concludes that attacks on private kitchens and domestic cooking failed, but attacks on private restaurants were successful and, consequently, `by 1921, state dining facilities had become an integral part of a new urban landscape' in Soviet Russia. 1726 Camena d'Almeida, P. `La population des villes de Russie en 1923', Annales de geÂographie Vol. 33 (1924), pp. 400±422.

1730 Hutchinson, J. F. Politics and Public Health in Revolutionary Russia. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1990. xx + 253 pp. Using some unusual published sources from the United States National Library of Medicine and from the Helsinki University Library, the author focuses upon professional and political debates regarding the utility of a centralized health ministry down to the establishment of the Bolsheviks' Commissariat for Health Protection (Narkomzdrav) in 1918. The final three chapters of the book are devoted to the world war, the Provisional Government and the early Bolshevik period.

1727 Conroy, M. S. `Health Care in Prisons, Labour and Concentration Camps in Early Soviet Russia', Europe±Asia Studies Vol. 57 (2000), No. 7, pp. 1,257±1,274. In this article, which is based upon materials from the Russian archives, the author comes to the rather unsurprising conclusion that Soviet Russia's `dysfunctional economy, coupled with the [civil war] and Russia's isolation from international trade' had a negative impact on health-care provision in the country's prisons and camps.

Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. xiv + 450 pp. The papers by the nineteen distinguished contributors to this volume (which are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography) are of the revisionist/social history school. The general aim of the volume is to evaluate the respective roles of ideology and social and economic circumstances in the evolution of Bolshevik authoritarianism during the civil war, but it suffers from an almost dogmatic determination to ignore the role of politics and political actors. The essays are organized into the following sections: `Civil War and Social Revolution', `The Social and Demographic Impact of the Civil War', `Administration and State Building', `The Bolsheviks and the Intelligentsia', `Workers and Socialists', and `The Legacy of the Civil War'.

Manchester: Manchester University Press, 1970. x + 238 pp. A mistitled book which actually deals predominantly, in a rather loosely organized if thoroughly documented manner, with the economic and social history of Soviet Russia, with some concentration upon the civil-war years to illustrate the author's thesis that events at local level had a decisive influence upon Bolshevik policy. The elucidation of the agrarian problem is particularly stimulating. 1737 Scheibert, P. Lenin an der Macht. Das russische Volk in der Revolution 1918±1922. Weinheim: Acta Humaniora der Verlag Chemie, 1984. 730 pp. A monumental work of prodigious scholarship and originality, this study of the impact of central government on Soviet society and economy utilizes a vast array of rare and unusual sources (most of them brought out of Soviet Russia in the period concerned). The volume includes separate chapters devoted to Moscow and Petrograd as well as a wide coverage of the provinces (notably such diverse towns as Kursk, Smolensk, Tambov, Tver and Tula).

1733 McAuley, M. Bread and Justice: State and Society in Petrograd, 1917±1922. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1991. xvii + 461 pp. An immensely detailed study of the impact of Bolshevik state-building efforts upon the citizens of the Red citadel ± from commissars to actresses and from schoolchildren to princesses. Themes such as crime, violence, unemployment, health, rationing, political ideas and cultural dreams are explored, largely on the basis of contemporary newspapers and published Soviet documents. Useful appendices present biographical details of leading Petrograd Bolsheviks of the period.

The author discusses how pre-revolutionary Russian culture had developed and emphasized the notion of licence in human interaction and the impact of this upon violence and drunken anarchy in the revolutionary period. 1739 Siegelbaum, L. H. Soviet State and Society Between Revolutions, 1918±1929. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. xiii + 284 pp. Although primarily a work concerned with the NEP years, this volume includes two introductory chapters (`Bequeathals of the Revolution, 1918±1920' and `The Crisis of 1920±1921') exploring the social history of the civil-war years and providing an excellent introduction to the subject.

1734 Meijer, J. M. `Town and Country in the Civil War', in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 259±277.

Historiography

1749 Bobroff, A. `The Bolsheviks and Working Women, 1905±1920', Soviet Studies Vol. 26 (1974), No. 4, pp. 540±567. Largely on the basis of contemporary newspaper publications, the author evaluates the Bolsheviks' solutions to the problem of the conflict between the separate needs of women workers and their own belief that separate organizations would undermine party unity. Bobroff argues that the party's recognition of the women question as an important issue prior to the revolution was a response not to women's political unconsciousness but to `the tremendous growth among working women, beginning in 1910, of militancy, organization and awareness'.

1745 Donald, M. ` ``What Did You Do in the Revolution, Mother?'': Image, Myth and Prejudice in Western Writing on the Russian Revolution', Gender and History Vol. 7 (1995), No. 1, pp. 85±99. Utilizing a disappointingly (and unrepresentatively) small number of Western secondary accounts and concentrating almost exclusively on those devoted to Aleksandra Kollontai, the author of this piece argues unconvincingly that sexist Russian myth-making has clouded Western judgment regarding the importance of the role in the revolution of Bolshevik women in general. 178

1751 Bonnell, V. E. `The Representation of Women in Early Soviet Political Art', Russian Review Vol. 50 (1991), No. 3, pp. 267±288. Surveying the changes in the representation of women in posters and other forms of visual propaganda from 1918 to 1921 ± from early allegorical representations (as `freedom', `truth', `knowledge', etc.) to realist images of female workers and peasants toward the end of the civil war ± the author notes that, although the images were supposed to emphasize class identity, they `also conveyed, quite unwittingly, ideas about gender and gender relations'.

1756 Clements, B. E. `Working Class and Peasant Women in the Russian Revolution, 1917±1923', Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society Vol. 8 (1982), No. 2, pp. 215±235. In this pioneering article, one of the first truly scholarly attempts to examine women's ± specifically, Great Russian women's ± experience of the revolution, the author argues that in the years 1917 to 1921 women turned, in their own interests, to the traditional institutions of the family and the village and that this was encouraged by the Bolshevik leadership which, in sexual politics, `shared to some extent the conservatism of the masses'. See also Clements, B. E. `Baba and Bolshevik: Russian Women and Revolutionary Change', Soviet Union/ Union SovieÂtique Vol. 12 (1985), No. 2, pp. 161±184.

The Bolsheviks in Russian Society: The Revolution and the Civil Wars. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 212±234. In a critique of the `rosy picture of the achievements of socialist construction' he alleges is to be found in the works of revisionist historians, the author seeks to recreate women's real experience under the Bolsheviks. Surveying the everyday lives and attitudes of working women and peasant women (as well as those regarded as class enemies), the author finds that `what the Bolsheviks meant by liberation of women was not liberation at all but utilization as a labor pool'.

1757 Clements, B. E. `The Birth of the New Soviet Woman', in A. Gleason, P. Kenez and R. Stites (eds) Bolshevik Culture: Experiment and Order in the Russian Revolution. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1985. pp. 220±237.

E. `The Effects of the Civil War on Women and Family Relations', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G. Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 105±122. The author argues that the transformation from the dominance of the extended family toward the ascendency of the nuclear family and the undermining of utopian Bolsheviks' pronunciations on `free love' was accelerated by the civil war: `Because it seemed to have shaken the very foundations of Russian society, the war produced a reaction that played a part in conserving, perhaps even strengthening, altered but still powerful institutions of marriage and family.'

1753 Bunge, A. `Women and Children in Soviet Russia', in J. Bickerman (ed.) Ten Years of Bolshevik Domination. Berlin/Schoneberg: S. Scholem, 1928. pp. 132±144.

1760 Clements, B. E. Bolshevik Women. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1997. xiv + 338 pp. In this imaginative, well-researched and readable monograph, drawing upon a database of 545 women who joined the party before 1921, as well as upon extensive research into the lives of the most prominent Bolshevichki, the author examines the reasons why they joined the party, their role in the Bolshevik underground and their participation in the revolution and civil war, as well as their subsequent careers. Clements's thesis is that women played a particularly important role in the lower levels of Bolshevik organization in the party's formative years. See also Clements, B. E. `Bolshevik Women: The First Generation', in T. Yeldin (ed.) Women in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. New York: Praeger, 1980. pp. 65±74.

Stuttgart: Franz Steiner Verlag, 1995. 329 pp. Utilizing archival materials from holdings in Russia, Britain and the United States, as well as numerous memoir accounts and an extensive secondary literature, the author of this impressive volume provides an analysis of both the attraction of the Social Democratic movement to women and the obstacles they faced in trying to enter and influence it.

1761 Donald, M. `Bolshevik Activity among the Working Women of Petrograd in 1917', International Review of Social History Vol. 27 (1982), pp. 129±160. On the basis of a reading of the Bolshevik newspapers Pravda and Rabotnitsa for the year 1917, the author discusses how, largely due to the efforts of Kollontai, the Bolsheviks' attitude toward the notion of separate women's organizations softened between the February Revolution and the early days of Soviet rule.

Treadgold Papers in Russian, East European and Central Asian Studies No. 10 (September 1996). 74 pp. In this piece the author seeks to examine the efforts of the Party to create a `new Soviet woman' and how Soviet women were able to `negotiate their own self-definition' and their role in society through their interaction with the offices of the Zhenotdel.

1762 Edmondson, L. H. Feminism in Russia, 1900± 1917. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1984. xii + 197 pp. This sympathetic if critical account of the evolution of Russian feminism includes some interesting new material on women's demands for the rights of full citizenship from the Provisional Government of 1917, and concludes pessimistically that the Bolshevik victory obliterated Russian feminism. See also Edmondson, L. H. `Russian Feminists and the First All-Russian Congress of Women', Russian History Vol. 3 (1976), No. 2, pp. 123±149.

In this brief article the authors address the question of whether or not the Soviet government intended to destroy the family, and analyse the aims and consequences of various family laws decreed from 1917 to 1945, concluding that at least three contrasting perspectives on the role of the family can be identified among the Soviet leadership.

1763 Farnsworth, B. `Village Women Experience the Revolution', in A. Gleason, P. Kenez and R. Stites (eds) Bolshevik Culture: Experiment and Order in the Russian Revolution. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1985. pp. 238±261. The author of this well-referenced discussion shows that most peasant women had a stronger sense of poverty than men, that they displayed little mutual solidarity in daily life, and that they resisted even such benign ventures of the Soviet government as the

1770 Goldman, W. Women, the State and the Revolution: Soviet Family Policy and Social Life, 1917±1936. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1994. xi + 351 pp. Although essentially a study of the social history of the 1920s (which focuses upon the relationship between state, society and ideology), the lengthy opening chapter of this volume examines the ideological and practical origins of Bolshevik visions of women's liberation and the family code of 1918.

London: UCL Press, 1997. viii + 239 pp. An interesting if rather misleadingly entitled volume: only one chapter (pp. 143±186) actually deals with 1917, the remainder being devoted to women's experiences in late imperial Russia and in the First World War.

The concentration is on the two world wars, but the piece includes some coverage of the events of the revolution and civil war. 1772 Halle, F. W. Woman in Soviet Russia. London: Routledge, 1933. 409 pp. An early study of the gradual emancipation of women from the late imperial through the early Soviet period, badly marred by the author's unfocused approach to the subject and naively optimistic regard for the Bolsheviks' policies on women.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992, pp. 103±123. A unique study of the ideas and activities of the influential non-party social democrat and feminist.

1819 . 12 Soviet Economy and Economic Policy Reviewing the period of War Communism (and its antecedents in the policies of the Imperial Government and the Provisional Government), the author seeks to demonstrate, empirically and in great detail, `the enormous vitality and dimensions of private trade' during the world war and the civil war, arguing that economic collapse ± as well as the `paucities of personnel, resources, operational points and experience' ± guaranteed that the Soviet government and its agencies (especially the Commissariat for Supply and the cooperatives) could not control the black market (and, in fact, had frequently to associate themselves with it).

R. `Lenin and Bukharin on the Transformation from Capitalism to Socialism: The Meshchersky Controversy, 1918', Soviet Studies Vol. 28 (1976), No. 1, pp. 66±82. An exploration of the implications ± for Bolshevik theory regarding the transition from capitalism to socialism ± of the clashes during the spring of 1918 between Lenin and Bukharin (and other Left Communists) on the subject of the former's attempts to incorporate the notion of state capitalism into the canons of Bolshevism. Particular reference is made to the two sides' responses to the proposal, made by the industrialist Alexis Meshcherskii, that the Soviet government should form a joint private/state-owned metallurgical trust. 1823 Buldakov, V. P. and Kabanov, V. V. `War Communism', Russian Studies in History Vol. 33 (1994), No. 1, pp. 27±51. An interesting post-Soviet analysis of the origins and essence of the term `War Communism' and of the stages and forms of development of `extreme measures', in which the authors seek to debunk the `false historiographical stereotype' of the Stalinist era. The authors argue that, in the civil-war period, ideology took precedence over economics and that War Communism `rose up on the wave of utopias' unleashed by the revolution, rather than being forced upon the party leadership by the military crisis.

1819 Berkhin, I. B. `So Just What Is ``War Communism''?', Russian Studies in History Vol. 33 (1994), No. 1, pp. 8±26.

A substantial chapter (pp. 63±111) is devoted to `The Political Economy of Utopia: Communism in Soviet Russia, 1918±1921', in which Boettke argues that the years of War Communism `constitute an attempt to carry out the Marxian ideal of comprehensive planning', the disastrous consequences of which `were the inevitable result of this Marxian ideal coming into conflict with the economic reality of the coordination problem that all economic systems face'.

Hannover: Verlag fuÈr Literatur und Zeitgeschehen GMBH, 1970. 300 pp. A published PhD thesis which, almost exclusively on the basis of published Soviet sources, attempts to describe, in a chronological manner, the genesis and operation VSNKh's organization in northern Russia.

1831 Dewar, M. Labour Policy in the USSR, 1917± 1928. London: Royal Institute of International Affairs, 1956. viii + 286 pp. In its a time a pioneering study of labour policy before Stalin, this volume is still useful for its appendix which lists and summarizes more than five hundred decrees, ordinances and instructions concerning labour.

A doctrinaire Soviet account of the operations of workers' control commissions from the summer of 1918 to the end of 1919, the period of the nationalization of large- and medium-scale industrial enterprises. The author argues that these bodies `performed an historic mission in preparing the transfer of enterprises to the hands of the proletarian state'.

1846 Hubbard, L. E. Soviet Money and Finance. London: Macmillan, 1936. xix + 339 pp. Only the early pages of this study of the banking system in the 1920s, which is based upon official Soviet sources, are related to the civil war and the transition to NEP. 1847 Husband, W. B. `Workers' Control and Centralization in the Russian Revolution: The Textile Industry of the Central Industrial Region, 1917±1920', Carl Beck Papers in Russian and East European Studies No. 403 (1985). 52 pp. On the basis of Soviet published and archival sources, the author argues that, in contrast to the impulse toward economic centralization `from below' exhibited by many Petrograd workers in 1917 to 1918, the less professionally skilled and politically astute workers of central Russia from the very beginning made a degree of centralization `from above' implicit to the revolutionary situation of Russia.

1841 Graziozi, A. `At the Roots of Soviet Industrial Relations and Practices: Piatakov's Donbass in 1921', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 36 (1995) Nos 1±2, pp. 95±138. Utilizing materials from a variety of Russian archives, the author of this most original article attempts to reconstruct the passage from War Communism to the NEP in the crucial Ukrainian mining and industrial region. The focus of the piece is upon the social and national tensions arising from the application of War Communism policies in the Donbass, the authorities' confrontation with the workforce, and the political conflicts provoked at a local level by the governorship of G. L. Piatakov (as well as the repercussions of this upon high politics, especially the Trotsky±Stalin rivalry, in Moscow).

The work is remarkable for its author's attempt to rescue Marxism from economic determinism and for his recognition of the realms of ideology and politics as autonomous spheres of social activity.

1849 Kaplan, F. I. `The Origin and Function of the Subbotniks and Voskresniks', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 13 (1965), No. 1, pp. 30±39. The author argues that the Bolshevik Party introduced the voluntary weekend `labour holidays' in 1919 not only as a means of increasing production but as a means of `threatening party members and non-party members alike with the punishments that could result from insufficiently developed consciousness'.

An examination of industrial development in the years immediately preceding and succeeding 1917, in which the author attempts to determine the degree of continuity of the regional industrial management organs founded in 1917 to 1918 (sovnarkhozy) with those founded by Imperial Government and the Provisional Government.

1857 Levermann, W. `Kommunismus und Kapital. Das russische Bank und Industriekapital in der Wirtschaftspolitik der Bolschewiki 1917/18', Kassler Forschungen zur Zeitgeschichte Vol. 6 (1988). 441 pp. A scholarly and exceptionally well referenced published doctoral thesis, discussing developments between October 1917 and the summer of 1918. The author focuses in particular upon the debates and controversies among the Bolshevik leadership with regard to the role of the banks in the Soviet state and the alternatives put forward to the nationalization programme.

London: Russian Manufacturers' and Merchants' Association, 1923. 24 pp. The author, Witte's successor as Minister of Finance in 1904 and President of the Council of Ministers from 1911 to 1914, here presents a damningly critical account of the collapse of the Russian economy and of Bolshevik economic policies from 1917 to 1922. 1853 Kritsman, L.

1859 Lih, L. T. `The Bolsheviks, Razverstka and War Communism', Slavic Review Vol. 45 (1986), No. 4, pp. 673±688. A controversial examination of the introduction, nature and purposes of the Bolshevik methods of forced grain procurement in the years 1918 to 1921 and of their eventual replacement by prodnalog (food-supply tax). The author suggests that historians should avoid the term `War Communism' when seeking to describe the Soviet government's economic policies during the civil-war period.

New York: Union Publishing Organization, 1920. 64 pp. An account of the formation of the organization in Moscow in July 1920, by its secretary, S. A. Dridzo.

1860 Lih, L. T. `The Bolshevik Sowing Committees of 1920: Apotheosis of War Communism?', Carl Beck Papers in Russian and East European Studies No. 803 (1990). 50 pp. On the basis of the published Soviet record, the author argues that far from being a utopian attempt to leap into socialism, as generally claimed in the Western historiography, the Posevkomy (sowing committees) were merely one more step in a process of crisis-led cooperation between the Communist state and the more industrious peasantry ± a process which began in 1918 and continued under NEP.

1864 Losovsky, A. Lenin and the Trade Union Movement (fwd. by W. Z. Foster). Chicago: Trade Union Educational League, n.d. [1925]. 36 pp. A defence of Bolshevik policies in the field of trade unionism, arguing that Lenin always saw the unions as playing an immense and important role in the building of socialism. 1865 Malle, S. The Economic Organization of War Communism, 1918±1921. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1984. xiii + 548 pp. Meticulously researched from an extensive and diverse range of published sources, this richly detailed and intricate description and explanation of early Soviet economic policies and institutions stands an indispensable work of reference on the subject of War Communism, its institutional innovations and its central organs (particularly VSNKh). The work was, though, criticized for lacking a social dimension or a sense of the social forces which fuelled debates on economic policy and for its laboured, repetitive style.

1861 Linhart, R. LeÂnine, les paysans, Taylor: Essai d'analyse mateÂrialiste historique de la naissance du systeÁme productif sovieÂtique. Paris: EÂditions du Seuil, 1976. 172 pp. A sympathetic yet critical analysis of the Bolsheviks' policy towards agricultural production, transport and industrial organization during War Communism, examining at length the influence of Taylorism upon Lenin's thought both before and during the revolutionary period. The consequences of that influence the author regards as `the bureaucratization of the work process and the exacerbation of the division between manual labour and intellectual labour' in Soviet Russia.

1866 Mandel, E. `La discussion sur la question syndicale dans le parti bolchevik (1920±1921)', QuatrieÁme Internationale Vol. 13 (1955), Nos 1±3, pp. 50±59. A brief review, from the Trotskyist point of view, of the trade union debates of 1920 to 1921.

1869 Nove, A. An Economic History of the USSR. London: Allen Lane/The Penguin Press, 1969. 416 pp. The author's fluent style and mastery of published Soviet statistics ensure that the early chapters of this much republished work have remained among the very best surveys of the Soviet economy in the years 1917 to 1921.

1875 Pethybridge, R. `The Bolsheviks and Technical Disorder, 1917±1918', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 49 (1971), pp. 410±424. A brief but stimulating survey of the Bolsheviks' increasingly authoritarian (and ultimately fruitless) attempts to bring order and organization to questions of transportation and food supply in the first six months of Soviet power.

1870 Nutsch, J. G. `Bolshevik Agrarian Priorities, 1917±1921', Bulletin for the Institute for the Study of the USSR Vol. 17 (1970), No. 10, pp. 5±13. Surveying Bolshevik agrarian policies and legislation from October 1917 to March 1921, the author argues that the Party's usual priority was the maintenance of its grip on power and that ideology was often `conveniently set aside', in order that peasants' desires could be met, whenever peasant ire was aroused sufficiently to threaten the Bolsheviks' hegemony.

1876 Pliutto, P. A. `Aleksandr Bogdanov on the Period of War Communism', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 5 (1992), No. 1, pp. 46±52.

A very useful factual survey of the organizational development, aims and achievements of VSNKh during the civil-war years, concentrating in particular upon the role of its chairman, A. I. Rykov (the subject of the author's PhD thesis), and upon the activity within the organization of the Left Communists.

1878 Rees, E. A. State Control in Soviet Russia: The Rise and Fall of the Workers' and Peasants' Inspectorate, 1920±1934. New York: St Martin's Press, 1987. xv + 315 pp. An exhaustively (and exhaustingly) detailed chronological account of Rabkrin's work, which in its early years combined responsibility for financial and budget management with the organization of popular control over the work of the entire state machine.

1879 Remington, T. F. Building Socialism in Bolshevik Russia: Ideology and Industrial Organization, 1917±1921. Pittsburgh, PA: University of Pittsburgh Press, 1984. x + 222 pp. The thesis of this stimulating book is that the Bolsheviks' failure to establish `the socialist society to which their doctrine pointed' was the consequence of their self-defeating attempt to do so through the process of `societal mobilization'. Bolshevik mobilization practices are illustrated with three case studies

1873 Patenaude, B. M. `Peasants into Russians: The Utopian Essence of War Communism', Russian Review Vol. 54 (1995), No. 4, pp. 552±570.

interrelationships between Bolshevik authoritarianism, socio-economic conditions, and the functioning of soviets and trade unions at a local and national level, as well setting the controversy within the general pattern of social changes in the civil war, as they affected workers and economic administration. 1884 Rucker, R. D. `Workers' Control of Production in the October Revolution and Civil War', Science and Society Vol. 43 (1979), No. 2, pp. 158±185. On the basis of published Soviet sources, the Marxist author of this piece argues that `what the Russian Revolution proved concerning workers' control was that workers' control was the conditio sine qua non for the creation of socialism', before surveying the spread of workers' control in the six months following the revolution and its replacement by nationalization, as a consequence of the onset of civil war, in the second half of 1918.

1880 Roberts, P. C. `War Communism: A Reexamination', Slavic Review Vol. 29 (1970), No. 2, pp. 238±262. A critical analysis of the prevalent interpretation of War Communism in Anglo-American literature as a temporary expedient forced upon the Soviet reÂgime by the wartime emergency, arguing (on the basis of Lenin's writings of the period) that, on the contrary, the policy reflected the aspiration of the Bolshevik leaders to replace commodity production with socialist organization. See also the subsequent correspondence between Roberts and R. J. Burch in Slavic Review Vol. 30 (1971), No. 2, pp. 461±464.

1885 Salomoni, A. ` ``Industrialisme'' contre ``sabotage'': le salaire en Russie aÁ l'eÂpoque du communisme de guerre', Revue des eÂtudes slaves Vol. 61 (1989), No. 4, pp. 403±418.

Larin and (especially) A. Gol'tsman. 1886 Salomoni, A. `Salario e produttivitaÁ del lavoro durante il communismo di guerra: il contributo di S. G. Strumlin', in A. Mura and A. Venturi (eds) Russica: Studi e ricerche sulla Russia contemporanea. Milan: Franco Angeli, 1990. pp. 87±116. An examination of the work published in 1923 by the Menshevik economist S. G. Strumlin (Zarabotnaia plata i proizvoditel'nost' truda v russkoi promyshlennost', 1913±1922gg.), detailing the `wage experience' under War Communism. The author sees it as helping to `trace the history of the positive paradigm (the NEP)'.

1881 Ronimois, H. E. `The Soviet Experiment with Communist Economy, 1918±1920', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 2 (1957), pp. 70±85. A usefully succinct statement of the main principles of War Communism, which the author claims was `the only [Soviet economic experiment] which reflected the direct influence of Karl Marx and his ideas'. 1882 Rosenberg, W. G. `Workers and Workers' Control in the Russian Revolution', History Workshop Vol. 5 (1978), pp. 89±97.

1887 Sapir, J. `La guerre civile et l'eÂconomie de guerre: origines du systeÁme sovieÂtique', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 38 (1997), Nos 1±2, pp. 9±28. The author argues that the tsarist wartime economy (and its continuation under the Provisional Government of 1917 and under the Bolsheviks) was a crucial factor in determining the nature of the Soviet state ± particularly in terms of the Bolsheviks' emphasis on organization and mobilization ± and warns against a `too idealistic reading of the birth of the USSR'.

1883 Rosenberg, W. G. `The Social Background to Tsektran', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G. Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 349±373.

General Works . 1896 1888 Schwarz, S. M. Social Insurance in Russia, 1917±1919. New York: Columbia University Russian Historical Occasional Papers, 1968. 202 pp. In this volume the author, who had been head of the department handling insurance affairs of the Ministry of Labour of the Provisional Government, details the various welfare reforms proposed in 1917 before going on to examine how, in 1918, the Bolsheviks' undermining of self-management of insurance by the workers reflected their general political ideology. The text is in Russian, but a summary, in English, is provided by Abraham Ascher.

1893 Sirianni, C. Workers' Control and Socialist Democracy: The Soviet Experience. London: Verso Editions, 1982. viii + 437 pp. This rather polemical New Left/libertarian study of `the democratic potential of workers' control and Soviet democracy in the Russian Revolution' examines factory committees and the soviets, arguing that their democratic potential remained unfulfilled not because of their own organizational inadequacies nor because of the impact of the civil war but, rather, as a consequence of the Bolsheviks' (and above all Lenin's) uncompromising ideological predisposition to centralized rule. See also Sirianni, C. J. `Rethinking the Significance of Workers' Control in the Russian Revolution', Economic and Industrial Democracy Vol. 6 (1985), No. 1, pp. 65±91.

1890 Sherman, H. C. `The Food Supply of Russia', Political Science Quarterly Vol. 33 (1918), pp. 210± 229. Based upon information the author gathered in Russia in 1917 while working with the Red Cross, this piece analyses the supply of grain, meat, fish, vegetables, fruit and milk to the population and concludes that the Russian diet relied too heavily on bread and contained insufficient amounts of milk, fresh vegetables and fruit.

1895 Smolinski, L. `Grinevetskii and Soviet Industrialisation', Survey No. 67 (1968), pp. 100±115. An intriguing argument that `a number of strategic priorities, targets, methods of planning, and even specific investment choices' to be found in the long-term economic plan for Soviet Russia which was drawn up by Golero in November 1921 were actually derived from earlier publications by the Russian scientist and engineer V. I. Grinevetskii (Professor of Heat Engineering at the Moscow Institute of Technology), whose approach to economic development was `thoroughly market-orientated'. See also the commentary on this piece by A. Nove and the rejoinder by Smolinski in Survey Nos 70±71 (1969), pp. 169±177.

1891 Sherman, S. `Economy in Soviet Russia', in J. Bickerman (ed.) Ten Years of Bolshevik Domination. Berlin/Schoneberg: S. Scholem, 1928. pp. 77±113. A now badly dated attempt to provide a balanced analysis of the main trends of early Soviet economic policy. 1892 Shkliarevsky, G. L. Labor in the Russian Revolution: Factory Committees and Trade Unions, 1917±1918. New York: St Martin's Press, 1992. xxi + 282 pp. In essence a critique of the work of both Soviet historians and Western social historians, this intriguing study of the changing relationship between the Bolshevik Party and the labour movement in the periods before and in the aftermath (to mid-summer 1918) of the October Revolution utilizes Russian and Western archives to examine the political ineptness of the Mensheviks, the `rational factors' determining workers' support for the Bolsheviks, and the rise of a class of pro-Bolshevik labour functionaries as factors in the Bolshevik seizure and maintenance of power. For an earlier version of the argument see Shkliarevsksy, G. L. `Factory Committees and the Establishment of the Bolshevik Dictatorship', Russian History Vol. 13 (1986), No. 4, pp. 399±432.

1896 Smolinski, L. `Lenin and Economic Planning', Studies in Comparative Communism Vol. 2 (1969), No. 1, pp. 96±114. An insightful investigation of the apparent inconsistencies in Lenin's views on economic planning, as they appear in his Collected Works, particularly those expressed in State and Revolution, during the War Communism period, and during the first months of the NEP. The author notes that Lenin's views changed over time and that `like the young Marx of 1844, the old Lenin of 1923 is a somewhat different man from that known to the reader of the bulk of his writings'.

Le Narkomprod, l'armeÂe et les paysans, 1918±1921', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 38 (1997), Nos 1±2, pp. 83±116. Utilizing a range of Russian archival sources, the author of this piece carefully traces the problems caused for the Soviet reÂgime by the establishment of the Prodarmiia in the summer of 1918 ± in particular, the tensions over the control of food supplies between the military and civilian authorities, the tensions between state organizations such as Narkomprod and the Cheka, and the tensions between central and local institutions.

1898 Sokolov, N. G. `The Use of Barter During the Transition to NEP', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 23 (1984), No. 2, pp. 54±61. An investigation, by a Soviet historian, into the failure of the Bolsheviks' attempts in 1921 to foster large-scale bartering between town and country. For the author, barter was nevertheless a useful `transitional measure' between War Communism and the NEP.

1903 Suvorova, L. N. `Behind the Facade of ``War Communism'': Political Power and the Market Economy', Russian Studies in History Vol. 33 (1994), No. 1, pp. 72±88. A thoughtful survey of the extensive operation of private trade in the period 1918 to 1921, concluding (with L. Kristman) that `it was not the NEP which gave birth to the market but the market, driven underground during the era of the Civil War, that gave birth . . . to NEP'.

1899 Solnick, S. L. `Revolution, Reform and the Soviet Telephone System, 1917±1927', Soviet Studies Vol. 43 (1991), No. 1, pp. 157±176. An attempt to account for the remarkable stagnation and even decline of the Soviet telephone service in the decade after the revolution. 1900 Sorenson, J. B. The Life and Death of Soviet Trade Unionism, 1917±1928. New York: Atherton Press, 1969. viii + 283 pp. The early chapters of this influential work provide a detailed account of Bolshevik industrial relations policies and their reception in the workplace. Exclusively on the basis of published sources, the author argues that the decline of support for the Party among the working class during the period 1917 to 1921 was largely a consequence of the former's `messianic approach' to industrial questions. Particular attention is paid to the Bolsheviks' predilection for a highly technocratic and scientific approach to production, which, notes Sorenson, prevailed over their humanistic conceptions of individual freedom and autonomy.

1904 Traub, R. `Lenin and Taylor: The Fate of ``Scientific Management'' in the (Early) Soviet Union', Telos Vol. 37 (1978), pp. 82±92.

Gastev in propagandizing for such a system during the civil-war years. 1905 Tsuji, Y. `The Debate on the Trade Unions, 1920±1921', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 2 (1989), No. 1, pp. 31±100.

1965 Debo, R. K. Survival and Consolidation: The Foreign Policy of Soviet Russia, 1918±1921. Montreal and Kingston: McGill±Queen's University Press, 1992. xiii + 502 pp. A finely-wrought and comprehensive diplomatic history (sequel to [1962]), which, on the basis of extensive research in Western archives, seeks to demonstrate that the Bolsheviks survived the civil war at least in part because of their `brutal realism' and because they were so much better than either the Whites or the interventionists at setting priorities. The second half of the book concentrates upon the manner in which the Soviet reÂgime dealt with its unexpected isolation at the end of the civil war (with particular reference to its response to the Polish invasion) and the work concludes with a useful examination of the Far Eastern Republic. The work also deals extensively with British, French, American, Japanese and German policies and actions towards Soviet Russia and one of its major themes is the key position assigned to Germany in the Bolsheviks' foreign policy strategy.

1968 Elleman, B. A. Diplomacy and Deception: The Secret History of Sino-Soviet Diplomatic Relations, 1917±1927. Armonk, NY: M. E. Sharpe, 1997. xvii + 322 pp. Elleman's main objective in this study (which is based upon a prodigious amount of research work in archives and libraries in Taiwan, China, Japan, Russia and the United States) was to reveal the treachery of Soviet diplomacy in China in the 1920s, as Moscow sought to take advantage of China's resentment of the Western powers and Japan in the aftermath of the post-war peace settlement. His not entirely convincing argument is that the Soviets followed a Machiavellian line of deceit, in an effort to maintain Russia's control of the Chinese-Eastern Railway and to dominate Outer Mongolia. In general, Elleman identifies far more continuity than difference between the diplomacy of the Bolsheviks and that of the tsarist government, both being subject to the same imperialist impulses.

1976 Haigh, R. H., Morris, D. S., and Peters, A. R. Soviet Foreign Policy, the League of Nations and Europe, 1917±1939. Totowa, NJ: Barnes and Noble, 1986. x + 138 pp. A brief survey of Soviet relations with the Western powers (and not, pace its title, the League), this volume is aimed at the undergraduate market and contains little of interest to the specialist. Coverage of the revolutionary period is very slight. 201

1977 . 13 Soviet Foreign Policy and the Comintern 1977 Helbig, H. Die TraÈger de Rapallo-Politik. GoÈttingen: Vandenhoeck & Rupprecht, 1958. 214 pp. Included in this important work are three essays analysing the origins of the Rapallo treaty, the personalities and policies of Count BrockdorffRantzau and his relations with von Seeckt, Stresemann, Hindenburg, Chicherin and others, as well as German±Soviet military contacts.

interference', and citing the experience of Ukraine in the revolutionary period as the classic example of `the divulgence between theory and practice' resulting from this antithesis. 1982 Jensen, B. `Kleinstaat in der Klemme. DaÈnemark als unfreiwilliges Gastland fuÈr einen bolschewistischen ``Weltgesandten'' ', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 38 (1990), No. 2, pp. 228±243. A piece which is chiefly of note for its extensive use of interesting materials on Soviet foreign policy and intrigues from the Danish state archives.

1978 Hiden, J. and Loit, A. (eds) Contact or Isolation? Soviet±Western Relations in the Inter-War Period, 1917±1940. Stockholm: University of Stockholm, 1991. 442 pp. A collection of twenty-five articles in English and German grouped into four themed sections: `Disruption and Restoration of Political Relations'; `Rise and Fall of Economic Exchange'; Conflict and Cooperation within the International Labour Movement'; and `Bridge or Barrier? The Baltic States in Soviet±Western Relations'. The relevant chapters are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

1983 Kapur, H. Soviet Russia and Asia, 1917±1927: A Study of Soviet Policy Towards Turkey, Iran and Afghanistan. New York: Humanities Press, 1967. 266 pp. The bulk of this study, which is narrative and descriptive rather than interpretive in nature, deals with Soviet±Turkish relations. The author consulted a variety of Western and Russian materials, but cites only one Turkish-language source, no Iranianlanguage source and only a handful of translations from Turkish and Iranian in his bibliography.

1979 Hildebrand, K. Das Deutsche Reich und die Sowjetunion im internationalen System 1918±1932: LegitimaÈt oder Revolution? Wiesbaden: Franz Steiner Verlag, 1977. 42 pp. An excellent, succinct and closely argued introductory text, making the case that there was never any chance that Germany and Soviet Russia might have combined to challenge the international system after 1919.

1984 Kennan, G. F. Russia and the West under Lenin and Stalin. Boston: Little Brown, 1961. 411 pp. Among the imbalances in this provocative and elegantly written work is its heavy emphasis on the years 1917 to 1922 and upon American±Soviet relations. The author, an eminent diplomat and scholar, is very critical of Western policy toward the Soviet Union in its formative years. See also Kennan, G. F. Soviet Foreign Policy, 1917±1941. Princeton, NJ: Van Nostrand, 1960. 192 pp.

1980 Hilger, G. and Meyer, A. The Incompatible Allies: A Memoir History of German±Soviet Relations, 1918±1941. New York: Macmillan, 1953. xiii + 350 pp. Hilger's recollections of his participation in the settlement of prisoner-of-war issues with Russia and his subsequent close collaboration with BrockdorffRantzau include some interesting and instructive observations. However, the joint authorship with the `professional social scientist', Meyer, designed `to combine academic knowledge with personal experience so as to give a personal touch to historiography and to make personal reminiscences as useful as possible to the professional scholar', actually turns the volume into something of an unsatisfactory hybrid: it is too circumspect for a memoir and too subjective for a genuine historical narrative.

1985 Kochan, L. Russia and the Weimar Republic. Cambridge: Bowes and Bowes, 1954. 190 pp. The opening chapters of this brief readable survey examine Soviet±German relations from BrestLitovsk to the end of the Soviet±Polish War, as well as the relations between Narkomindel and the Comintern. See also Kochan, L. `The Soviet Road to Rapallo', Soviet Studies Vol. 2 (1950), No. 2, pp. 109±122. 1986 Lahey, D. T. `Soviet Ideological Development of Coexistence, 1917±1927', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 6 (1964), No. 1, pp. 80±94. A brief review of early Soviet contacts with Western states, finding that peaceful relations were sought as a consequence of Lenin's recognition that Soviet Russia would have been `courting annihilation' if it had attempted to export the revolution by active means.

1981 Horak, S. `Lenin's Policy of Non-Intervention and of World Revolution', Ukrainian Review Vol. 11 (1964), No. 1, pp. 37±47. An over-simplistic synthesis of the standard literature, arguing that the idea of `world revolution' is the direct antithesis of the principle of `non202

General and Miscellaneous Works . 1996 1987 Lenczowski, G. Russia and the West in Iran, 1918±1948: A Study in Big Power Rivalry (fwd. by G. V. Allen). Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1949. xv + 383 pp. A serviceable diplomatic history of Russian and British relations with Iran and of their military and political operations in that country. The first chapters, based upon published sources only, cover the Malleson mission and Dunsterforce, the Kuchik Khan rebellion, the Khorasan episode, the Rothstein mission, etc.

1991 Miliukov, P. N. La Politique exteÂrieure des Soviets. Paris: Giard, 1934. 490 pp. The author, the liberal academic and Foreign Minister of the first Provisional Government of 1917, in this volume provided a detailed and surprisingly balanced survey of the `revolutionary offensive' of Soviet foreign policy of the early years. 1992 Narotchnizky, A. L. `La Russie et l'Europe en 1918', Revue d'histoire moderne et contemporaine Vol. 16 (1969), pp. 29±36. The author of this brief survey, a visiting Soviet historian, argues that (contrary to Western accounts) there still existed an Eastern Front in 1918, as the peoples of Russia, Ukraine, Belorussia and Transcaucasia resisted the invasion of the Central Powers, and that this significantly influenced the first year of Soviet foreign policy (although this was not recognized at the time or since by Western commentators).

1988 Leong, S.-T. Sino-Soviet Diplomatic Relations, 1917±1926. Canberra: Australian National University Press, 1976. xxi + 361 pp. An excellent study of Sino-Soviet relations, covering the disputes over Mongolia, Manchuria and the Amur basin, the operations of the Harbin Soviet of 1917 to 1918, China's part in the Allied intervention in Siberia, and Chinese responses to the October Revolution and the policies of the Soviet government. The work is based upon published and unpublished Chinese and Japanese documentary sources. See also Leong, S. T. `Tsarist Legacy in North Manchuria, 1895±1917', Papers on Far Eastern History Vol. 6 (1972), pp. 63±87.

1993 Nyman, L.-E. Great Britain and Chinese, Russian and Japanese Interests in Sinkiang, 1918± 1934. Stockholm/GoÈteborg/Lund: Esselte Studium, 1977. 165 pp. An original study of Great Power political rivalries in Chinese Central Asia based upon British, German and Swedish archival holdings and many other contemporary published sources. The volume includes detailed coverage of the impact of the revolution in the region and of the problems associated with White eÂmigreÂs.

1989 Linke, H. G. Deutsch±sowjetische Beziehungen bis Rapallo. Cologne: Verlag Wissenschaft und Politik, 1970. 295 pp. Utilizing published Western and Soviet sources and materials from German archives, the author provides a careful reconstruction of the course of German±Soviet relations from the negotiations at Brest-Litovsk to the signing of the Rapallo agreement. Few new insights are offered, but Linke is careful to balance the interaction between domestic and foreign policy, the relations with other powers (especially Britain) and the influence of personalities (especially on the German side).

1994 O'Connor, T. E. Diplomacy and Revolution: G. V. Chicherin and Soviet Foreign Affairs, 1918±1930. Ames, IA: Iowa State University Press, 1988. xx + 250 pp. Utilizing some Soviet archival materials and a good deal of published documentation, the author emphasizes the centrality of Germany in Chicherin's diplomatic calculations and his concomitant hostility to Britain. In general, however, this is a disappointing volume, which adds little to earlier accounts.

1990 Melograni, P. Lenin and the Myth of World Revolution: Ideology and Reasons of State (transl. by J. Lerro). Atlanta Highlands, NJ: Humanities Press International, 1989. xiv + 161 pp. The author's controversial thesis is that `Lenin did not want world revolution'. Rather, argues Melograni, foreseeing the necessity of many years of peaceful coexistence with the capitalist West, from the moment of his assumption of power Lenin pursued policies designed to win the official recognition of the Soviet state, thereby enhancing its power and thereby guaranteeing the maintenance of his own party's hegemony over the European Left.

1995 Palmieri, A. La Politica asiatica dei Bolscevichi. Bologna: N. Zanichelli, 1924. 237 pp. A thorough scholarly account covering Communist activities in China, Japan, India and Persia in separate chapters and including a useful bibliography. 1996 Patrikeeff, F. `Russian and Soviet Economic Penetration of North China, 1895±1933', in J.

A scholarly examination of the manner in which Lenin's foreign-policy thinking evolved toward a more traditional approach as revolution failed to materialize in Europe.

1997 Pohle, R. Russland und das deutsche Reich. Bonn: Schroeder, 1922. 142 pp. The author, a Baltic German, offers a warning against the dangers of Panslavism and Bolshevism and advocates a policy of vigourous German expansion in the east.

2004 White, S. The Origins of Detente: The Genoa Conference and Soviet±Western Relations, 1921±1922. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1985. xv + 255 pp. Utilizing an impressive array of government and private papers from six west European countries, as well as published Soviet documents, the author traces the origins and course of the Genoa Conference, arguing that its failure to achieve a lasting modus vivendi was a consequence of its prematurity. The first chapter of the volume presents an excellent summary of the international political and economic problems raised for Europe by the Russian revolution.

1998 Rosenfeld, G. Sowetrussland und Deutschland, 1917±1922. [East] Berlin: Akademie-Verlag, 1960. 423 pp. An essential work on the period, despite its Communist bias, which draws upon Russian and German publications and East German archival records to present a very detailed account of the early years of Soviet±German relations. The volume features an important bibliography. 1999 Senn, A. Diplomacy and Revolution: The Soviet Mission to Switzerland, 1918. Notre Dame, IN: University of Notre Dame Press, 1974. ix + 221 pp. Drawing extensively upon French and Swiss archives, the author describes the tangled web of events that led to the establishment and expulsion of the Soviet-sponsored mission which functioned in Switzerland from May to November 1918, under the leadership of J. A. Berzin.

2005 Whiting, A. S. Soviet Policies in China, 1917± 1924. London: Oxford University Press, 1954. 350 pp. An authoritative, well-documented and still valuable work which includes an examination of Lenin's writings on China prior to 1917, an analysis of the Second Congress of the Comintern's deliberations with regard to that country and Asian nationalist movements in general, a concise account of the Lenin±Roy dispute, a valuable chronology and bibliography and a selection of documents.

London: Sage Publications, 1979. 240 pp. A careful and clearly written investigation of the personnel and organization of Narkomindel and of its role in the early years of the Soviet state (which the author regards as very influential, as a consequence of the fact that it was the most Bolshevized department of government).

MuÈnster: Aschendorff, 1960. 87 pp. A concise and expertly handled bibliographical survey and brief summary of the conflicting verdicts passed on the treaty, together with an explanation of the German and Soviet tactics during the negotiations. The author concludes that the Bolsheviks gained most at Brest-Litovsk, accepting unquestioningly Lenin's judgement that it provided an essential `breathing space'.

Documents 2011 Baumgart, W. and Repgen, K. (eds) BrestLitovsk. GoÈttingen: Vandenhoeck & Rupprecht, 1969. 136 pp. This collection of extracts from minutes, diary entries, letters and memoirs, intended to introduce students to the business of comparing evidence, illustrates some key turning points in Soviet±German negotiations between mid-December 1917 and late February 1918. It is, however, rather more revealing with regard to the development of policy on the German than on the Soviet side.

2017 KroÈger, T. Brest-Litowsk. Beginn und Folgen des bolschewistischen Weltbetrugs. Berlin: Ullstein, 1937. 332 pp. This volume is now of more interest to the student of Nazi propaganda than to the student of the Russian revolution, but it does contain some rare and interesting photographs. 2018 PeÂju, M. `Brest-Litovsk, ou l'incarnation', Les Temps modernes Vol. 10 (1954±1955), Nos 112±113, pp. 1727±1748.

Taylor thesis of a quarter of a century later, the author argues that Hitler's foreign policy `merely aimed at carrying out in a more energetic manner what pre-Hitler Germany was more cautiously attempting in its foreign policy'.

2041 Degras, J. (ed.) The Communist International, 1919±1943: Volume One, 1919±1922. London: Oxford University Press, 1956. xvi + 463 pp. The value of this comprehensive selection of over 100 documents dealing with the aims, policies and organization of the Comintern, together with statements on current issues and communications with parties outside of Soviet Russia, is greatly enhanced by the detailed editorial notes with which each document is introduced.

Paris: La Renaissance du Livre, 1922. xv + 300 pp. The author, a delegate of the French Communist Party at the Third Congress of the Comintern, in this vivid memoir of his visit makes little secret of his admiration for both Trotsky and Lenin, while nevertheless criticizing the latter for his attitude to the trade unions in Soviet Russia. 2059 Reichenbach, B. `Moscow 1921: Meetings in the Kremlin', Survey No. 53 (1964), pp. 16±22. A brief account of a visit to Russia in early 1921 by a German, a member of the KAPD delegated to the Comintern, who met most of the top Bolshevik leaders as well as members of the Workers' Opposition. The author recalls how, through conversations with Lenin, he came to understand that the Comintern was to be little more than a tool to promote Russian interests.

2053 Gomez, M. `From Mexico to Moscow', Survey No. 53 (1964), pp. 33±47. The author, a member of the Mexican Socialist Party and an associate of M. N.

2061 . 13 Soviet Foreign Policy and the Comintern An account of a visit to Soviet Russia in 1921 by the PSOE's delegate, the Professor at Granada University, Fernando De los RõÂ os. A Social Democrat, De los RõÂ os was appalled by the infringements of civil rights and the terror carried out by the Cheka under the dictatorship of the Bolsheviks in Russia. He subsequently played a leading role in the PSOE's extraordinary congress of April 1921, which rejected the conditions of entry to the Communist International.

A critique of Bolshevik policy, a condemnation of the Third International and a defence of the Second by the noted Menshevik leader. 2063 Boersner, D. The Bolsheviks and the National and Colonial Question, 1917±1928. Geneva: Droz, 1957. 285 pp. A very detailed examination of the Comintern's view of and policies toward national movements outside Europe, together with a review of the views of Marx, Engels and Lenin on the subject. The work includes some factual errors, but remains useful.

J. `The Views of an Anarcho-Syndicalist on the Soviet Union: The Defeat of the Third International in Spain', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 8 (1995), No. 1, pp. 26±38. `Report on the Action Taken by the Delegate Angel PestanÄa at the Second Congress of the Third International Which Was Presented by Him to the ConfederacioÂn Nacional del Trabajo, (transl. by F. J. Romero SalvadoÂ), Revolutionary Russia Vol. 8 (1995), No. 1, pp. 39±103. The author's introduction, relating the biography of PestanÄa and summarizing the history of the labour movement and anarchism in Spain down to 1920, is followed by his translation of PestanÄa's reports to the CNT (delivered in June 1922), recounting his involvement in the day-to-day working routine of the Comintern and his disillusionment with the Soviet system as he had witnessed it in the summer of 1920. The reports appeared originally as: PestanÄa, A. Memoria que al ComiteÂ de La CNT presenta de su gestioÂn en el II Congreso de Tercera Internacional el delegado Angel PestanÄa. Madrid: Editorial Zyx, 1969. 52 pp.; and PestanÄa, A. Consideraciones y juicios acerca de la Tercera Internacional. Madrid: Editorial Zyx, 1970. 49 pp. PestanÄa's biting criticisms of the Bolsheviks' combination of high-handedness and underhandedness in running the congress make for amusing reading; after hearing it the CNT withdrew from the Comintern.

2064 Borkenau, F. World Communism: A History of the Communist International. New York: W. W. Norton & Co., 1938. 442 pp. A still valuable survey of the major Communist parties from their origins to 1938. The author was a former German Communist and is strongly critical of Moscow, while presenting a rather disproportionate amount of material regarding developments in Germany. The volume includes a useful bibliography of early works. 2065 Braunthal, J. A History of the International, Vol. 2: 1914±1943.

T. `The Hungarian Revolution of 1919 and the Reorganization of the Comintern in 1920', Journal of Central and East European Affairs Vol. 11 (1951), No. 1, pp. 27±38. An argument that the Comintern's adoption of the `Twenty-One Conditions' for entrance and rejection of cooperation with mass social-democratic parties was a direct consequence of Lenin's interpretation of the failure of the Hungarian Revolution as being a consequence of the Hungarian Communists' `grave error of judgment in uniting with the socialists'. 2068 Claudin, F. The Communist Movement: From Comintern to Cominform, 2 vols. Harmondsworth: Penguin, 1975. ix + 831 pp. A work which is fiercely critical of the manipulation of the Communist International under both Lenin and Stalin.

2077 Jackson, G. D. Comintern and Peasant in East Europe, 1919±1930. New York: Columbia University Press, 1966. xii + 339 pp. On the basis of printed sources, in this unusual (if mistitled) book, being only partly hamstrung by his ability to utilize only sources in Russian and western European languages, the author presents hitherto uncovered information on the interrelationship between the Comintern's peasant organization, the Krestintern, and the agrarian political parties of Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Roumania, Czechoslovakia and Poland. He analyses also the development of Moscow's peasant strategy and the serious differences in the Kremlin on the activities of the Krestintern. See also Jackson, G. D. `The Krestintern and the Peasant as Revolutionary', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 14 (1966), pp. 213±231.

2074 Hedlin, M. W. `Unity or Front? The Contradictions of United Front Policy, 1921±1922', South Atlantic Quarterly Vol. 72 (1973), pp. 415±426. The author identifies reasons for the failure of the Comintern's United Front policy of the 1920s in the divisions and disagreements among and between Bolshevik leaders regarding the policy at the outset, in the Bolsheviks' lack of sincerity in proposing unity with socialist parties, in the lack of specific definition of the policy, in the Russians' tendency to try to extrapolate their own experience onto that of other parties, and in the opposition to the policy of certain European Communist parties.

An amusing recounting of the experiences in Russia of the Italian (PSI), French (SFIO) and German (USPD) delegations to the Second Congress of the Comintern during the summer of 1920, and of their reception by Bolshevik leaders. The byzantine complexities of their negotiations for entry to the organization are reconstructed in a companion article: Lindemann, A.

2086 Lobanow-Rostovsky, [Prince] A. `Bolshevism and Asia', Edinburgh Review Vol. 248 (1928), No. 506, pp. 349±357.

NeuchaÃtel: BaconnieÁre, 1951. 287 pp. Not unimpeachably accurate in every factual detail, but nevertheless a thoughtful review of the prehistory of the Comintern at Zimmerwald and Kienthal, and its foundation and direction under Lenin's leadership down to the Fourth Congress of November 1922 (which was the occasion of Lenin's penultimate public appearance). The volume includes a copious bibliography, including citations of many rare French sources.

The Comintern: A History of International Communism from Lenin to Stalin. London: Macmillan, 1996. xxv + 304 pp. A lucidly written general history of the Comintern which was the first to make use of newly available archival sources and which is particularly valuable for its insights into the historiography of the organization. The first chapter of the volume (`Comintern in the Era of Lenin, 1919±1923') provides an excellent introduction to the subject. Appended are a number of key documents.

2083 Lazitch, B. and Drakovitch, M. M. Lenin and the Comintern: Volume I. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1972. xii + 683 pp. Although the authors' casting of Lenin as an omnipresent, omnipotent arch-conspirator gives an ahistorical, polemical twist to this massive study, the sections dealing with the Comintern's unofficial emissaries to national branches of the movement in Europe contain fascinating revelations and much original material. For an appreciation of this volume see Hook, S. `Lenin and the Communist International', Russian Review Vol. 32 (1973), No. 1, pp. 1± 14.

A detailed account of the founding of the Communist Party of Eastern Galicia, viewed by the author as one of the earliest attempts to export the Russian Bolsheviks' experience westward, as exemplifying many of the problems confronting the Comintern in its early days, and as being made all the more interesting by the process's entwinement with Ukrainian±Polish±Russian relations and the formation of the Polish Communist Party. See also Solchanyk, R. `Revolutionary Marxism in Galicia before 1918', East European Quarterly Vol. 1 (1976), pp. 35±41; and Solchanyk, R. `The Comintern and the Communist Party of Western Ukraine, 1919± 1928', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 23 (1981), No. 2, pp. 181±197.

New York: New York University Press, 1959. xviii + 252 pp. A shallow and unconvincing history of the changing tactical line of Lenin's thought on the relations between the Russian and the World Revolutions which views his theories as nothing more than a rationalization of his `demon-driven ego' and his `compulsive need to dominate' and maintain control over the international communist movement.

of its participants (in terms of their nationality, party-affiliation, etc.). The author views the Congress as signifying `the abandonment of revolutionary theory in favour of the practice of ``accommodation'' (that is to say, the policy of ``peaceful coexistence'')'. Appended to the article is a translation of a `Schema for Reports and Correspondence from the Local Regions' drawn up by the Congress and published in the sole issue of its journal, Narody vostoka.

Reproduced here is the text of an interview, on the occasion of the completion of his History of Soviet Russia [530], in which Carr comments on the significance of the Russian revolution for the capitalist world. His starting point is that swings of opinion about the revolution in Western countries `are to be explained by what was happening in those countries as much as by anything happening in the USSR'.

2112 Mitchell, D. 1919: Red Mirage. London: Macmillan, 1970. 385 pp. A disappointingly episodic and overtly unobjective account of the wave of strikes and uprisings of 1919, from Winnipeg to Ukraine, by a British journalist of (apparently) anarchist sympathies.

Chapel Hill, NC: North Carolina University Press, 1965. xii + 302 pp. A very detailed analysis of Western (especially British) official and unofficial attitudes toward Soviet Russia during the Soviet±Polish War and at the time of Wrangel's advance from the Crimea. The author makes some penetrating observations and provides references to a host of articles in contemporary periodicals and newspapers, although he does tend to equate public opinion with the opinions of journalists and newspaper editorial writers.

2109 Dukes, P. October and the World: Perspectives on the Russian Revolution. London: Macmillan, 1979. viii + 224 pp. An enjoyable, cogently argued and provocative work, in which the author seeks to establish the Russian revolution as an event derived from European (and even world) history rather than from conditions peculiar to Russia, and as an event which influenced world history as profoundly as had the French and American revolutions in their own times.

GiaffreÁ, 1976. 432 pp. A collection of articles and extracts from articles, with some disappointingly minimal comment and analysis, from newspapers (such as Corriere della Sera, La Stampa, Avanti!, Il Populo d'Italia, and Il Giornale d'Italia), and periodicals (such as Critica sociale and La Nuova Antologia), recording the Italian press's reactions to the Russian revolution from February to December 1917.

An analysis of news coverage and editorial comment at the time of the October Revolution, as found in the pages of the London Times, the Manchester Guardian, the New York Times and the Chicago Tribune. The author argues that although the American newspapers were more thorough than the British in their reporting, journalists on both sides of the Atlantic `served their readers an unrelieved diet of baseless optimism', as they analysed the revolution almost exclusively in terms of its impact on Allied military prospects.

Individual chapters cover the revolutions of 1917, the civil war and the NEP.

Berkeley, CA: University of California Press, 1974. xiii + 349 pp. A balanced study of the of the biennio rosso, which views the Bolshevik victory in Russia as a mixed blessing for Western socialists, while portraying the schisms in their parties as being primarily a consequence of indigenous Western conditions rather than of the often alleged enforcement of inappropriate Eastern dogmatism on the part of Moscow in its attempt to divide and rule.

2143 Brand, C. F. `British Labour and Soviet Russia', South Atlantic Quarterly Vol. 48 (1949), pp. 327±340. In the light of the post-Second World War strained relations between the British Labour government and the USSR, the author looks back to the equally ambivalent attitude of the party toward Soviet Russia in the inter-war years, paying particular attention to the period of the civil war and the Polish±Soviet War. See also Brand, C. F. `British Labour and the International during the Great War', Journal of Modern History Vol. 8 (1936), No. 1, pp. 40±64.

London: Pelican, 1917, containing the Daily Herald's report on the convention of June 1917, which had been convened by the United Socialist Council. At the meeting figures as diverse as Ramsay MacDonald, Philip Snowden, Bertrand Russell, Ernest Bevin, William Gallagher and the suffragette Mrs Despard aired their reactions to the ongoing events in Russia.

2144 Challinor, R. The Origins of British Bolshevism. London: Croom Helm, 1977. 291 pp. Discussing the period from 1900 to 1922, the author seeks to explain why it was that revolutionary socialism failed to conquer Britain during the period in which the parliamentary Labour Party laid the foundations for its own later electoral successes. 2145 Cowden, M. H. Russian Bolshevism and British Labour, 1917±1921. Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1984. viii + 238 pp. This detailed analysis of Bolshevik interpretations of factional struggles within the British labour movement adds a considerable amount of detail to Graubard's earlier study [2150].

The Response in Britain . 2154 Graubard, was able to incorporate significant materials from contemporary Soviet publications. It focuses in particular upon the `International Strike' of 1919, the British Labour delegation to Russia of 1920 and the origins of Communism in Britain.

Written from a Marxist perspective, this article provides a detailed and very well-informed chronological account of the activities of the SFRF, `the biggest and most efficiently-run internationalist body in Britain'.

2146 Durham, M. `British Revolutionaries and the Suppression of the Left in Lenin's Russia, 1918± 1924', Journal of Contemporary History, Vol. 20 (1985), No. 2, pp. 201±219. A review of the response of extreme left-wing organizations in Britain to the Bolsheviks' suppression of Russian anarchists, the Kronstadt sailors and the Workers' Opposition. Based upon a broad and detailed reading of their press, the author concludes that, for the most part, British Communists and many other socialists `defended mythical Russian socialism and let down real and persecuted Russian socialists'.

2150 Graubard, S. R. British Labour and the Russian Revolution, 1917±1924. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1956. 305 pp. Utilizing a wide range of published sources and some unpublished sources, the author of this scholarly account surveys the attitude to Soviet Russia of not only the British Labour Party but also the Independent Labour Party, the British Communist Party and other groups. 2151 Kadish, S. The Bolsheviks and the British Jews: The Anglo-Jewish Community, Britain and the Russian Revolution. London: Frank Cass, 1992. xiv + 298 pp. An interesting and exceptionally thoroughly researched study of the reaction to the revolutions and intervention in Russia of the Jews in Britain (particularly in London), emphasizing the variety of their opinions and actions and their ambiguous relationship with the host society.

A discussion of how, until it was virtually too late to be of any assistance, the Archbishop of Canterbury resisted pressures from the British government to condemn the Bolsheviks' persecution of the Russian Orthodox clergy. The author ascribes Randall's action to a mixture of the consequences of his own unwillingness to trust the tendentious information being received from Russia and the onset of famine in Russia which enabled the Soviet reÂgime to `disguise its attack on the church as famine relief'. Randall's dilemma, for Edmondson, was that `If he raised objections to the persecution of the church leaders, he would appear to be insufficiently concerned for the starving.'

2152 Kendall, W. The Revolutionary Movement in Britain, 1900±1921: The Origins of British Communism. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1969. xii + 453 pp. A work notable for its insistence upon the foreign (and, specifically, Russian) influences on the origins and formation of the Communist Party of Great Britain.

An argument that `Clydeside's post-war radicalism did indeed reflect a degree of mass socialist consciousness' and that `its leaders were relatively sophisticated and not unaffected by the Russian revolution'.

London: Lawrence & Wishart, 1968. 381 pp. A superficial, unscholarly official history, interesting more for what it omits (e.g., any mention of subsidies, instructions and agents from Moscow) than for what it includes (details of congresses, strikes and demonstrations drawn uncritically from contemporary left-wing publications).

British Communism', European History Quarterly Vol. 29 (1999), No. 2, pp. 179±215. An exhaustive exploration of the activities in Britain of the Finnish communist Erkkii Veltheim and his Finnish-Estonian collaborator Salme Pekkala, in which the authors assert that other historians' depiction of British Bolshevism as an artificial insemination from Russia is mistaken, for `it is too simplistic to present the earliest networks of international communism simply as a web thrown out by Moscow'.

2155 Liebmann, M. `Ramsay MacDonald et la reÂvolution russe', Revue de l'Institut de sociologie (Brussels), Vol. 29 (1956), pp. 547±576. In this article, reviewing the British Labour leader's response to events in Russia from the outbreak of war in 1914 down to 1921, the author, a Belgian Communist, argues that the key to understanding MacDonald's evolution from a defender of the October Revolution in 1917 to a critic of it by 1919 is to be found not in the internal developments in Russia but in MacDonald's `paradoxical character'.

An analysis of the response of British Labour organizations and of Lloyd George's government to the Soviet±Polish War, concluding that Labour's Council of Action's appraisal of the situation and its threat of a general strike to block British intervention in the war `made more sense to millions of people than [the responses] of the government itself'.

2161 Northedge, F. S. `1917±1919: The Implications for Britain', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 3 (1968), No. 4, pp. 191±209. The author argues that the British government's response to both the February and the October revolutions was conditioned solely by the question of how these events would affect Russia's war effort, claiming that however much Churchill strove to transform the intervention into an anti-Bolshevik crusade, `there was really no heart for it in Britain'.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1980. xii + 286 pp. Focusing upon the positions adopted by Marxists in Britain on a series of doctrinal issues, the author argues that they became increasingly influenced by Leninism in the years after the Russian revolution.

2162 Pollitt, H. Serving My Time: An Apprenticeship in Politics. London: Lawrence & Wishart, 1940. 292 pp. The autobiography of the British Communist leader includes some details of the anti-interventionist activities of left-wing groups in Britain, including a chapter on dockers' resistance to loading arms for Poland (reprinted from Bell, E.

Utilizing British Foreign Office papers, Labour Party archives and the private papers of Lansbury, MacDonald, Ponsonby, the Webbs and others, this volume provides a cogently argued analysis of the variety of responses to Bolshevism in the British Labour Party down to the collapse of the first Labour Government in 1924.

See also Rodgers, M. `Political Developments in the Lithuanian Community in Scotland, c.1890± 1923', in J. Slatter (ed.) From the Other Shore: Russian Political Emigrants in Britain, 1880±1917. London: Frank Cass, 1984. pp. 141±156.

An interesting look at how the British government, alarmed by events in Russia, attempted to keep a close eye on disgruntled and often unemployed exservicemen through a newly created Directorate of Intelligence in the years after the war. 2169 White, J. D. `Scottish Lithuanians and the Russian Revolution', Journal of Baltic Studies Vol. 6 (1975), No. 1, pp. 1±8. The author recounts the remarkable story of the reaction of Lithuanian immigrants settled around Glasgow to the outbreak and development of the revolution in Russia, largely through references to their newspapers.

2164 Rothstein, A. The Soldiers' Strikes of 1919. London: Macmillan, 1980. 114 pp. The author tells the story of the strikes and demonstrations organized by members of the armed forces in Britain in the first months of 1919, as they awaited demobilization. According to Rothstein, these actions prevented the dispatch of a large-scale interventionist force to Russia.

2170 White, S. `The Soviets in Britain: The Leeds Convention of 1917', International Review of Social History Vol. 19 (1974), pp. 165±193. The author argues that close study of the speeches made and resolutions passed at the Labour and Socialist Convention of 3 June 1917 (among them a call for the establishment of `extra-Parliamentary Soviets with sovereign powers') reveals the event to be understood better as illustrative of the movement's pacifism than as a call for a revolution on the Russian model.

2165 Shadwell, A. The Revolutionary Movement in Britain (pref. by W. A. Appleton). London: G. Richards, 1921. 62 pp. The author of this contemporary piece argues that the revolutionary movement in Britain `is essentially social and economic in character, and only political incidentally', as well as charging that the influence of Marxism on it had been exaggerated: in fact, he claims, `it is not too much to say that Bolshevism has become a source more of weakness than strength' to the Left in Britain.

2171 White, S. Britain and the Bolshevik Revolution: A Study in the Politics of Diplomacy, 1920±1924. London: Macmillan, 1979. xiii + 317 pp. In this study of the British response to the Bolshevik revolution, based upon an exhaustive trawl of British private and public papers, the author cogently argues that the period did not witness the gradual normalization of Anglo-Soviet relations but, rather, comprised a number of diplomatic manoeuvres designed `to undermine the Soviet government or otherwise commit it to Allied purposes which in political terms represented a continuation of the military intervention' by other means.

2166 Shipway, M. Anti-Parliamentary Communism: The Movement for Workers' Councils in Britain, 1917±1945. Basingstoke: Macmillan, 1988. 240 pp. A study of two anti-parliamentary groups which were strongly influenced by the Russian experience: the Workers' Socialist Federation, launched by Sylvia Pankhurst, and the variously monikered Glasgow-based organization led by Guy Aldred. 2167 Smyth, J. and Rodgers, M. `Peter Petroff and the Socialist Movement in Britain, 1907±1918', in J. Slatter (ed.) From the Other Shore: Russian Political Emigrants in Britain, 1880±1917. London: Frank Cass, 1984. pp. 100±116. An examination of Petroff's role and significance in the British socialist movement, concentrating in particular upon his part in the founding of the British Socialist Party, his work on Clydeside during the First World War, his relations with John Maclean, and the circumstances surrounding his arrest, internment and repatriation to Russia in 1918.

2172 Winter, J. M. `Arthur Henderson, the Russian Revolution, and the Reconstruction of the Labour Party', Historical Journal Vol. 15 (1972), No. 4, pp. 753±773. Examining the impact of the revolution on the Labour Party Secretary's attitude toward the conduct of international affairs and domestic politics, the author argues that Henderson `came to advocate the reconstruction of the Labour party only after and partly as a result of his visit to Russia of mid-1917', and analyses how, during that visit, Henderson evolved from being an opponent of the Stockholm Conference to being an advocate of it.

Challenges of Labour: Central and Western Europe, 1917±1920. London: Routledge, 1992. pp. 262±288. In this piece the author examines the variety of challenges to the status quo posed by organized labour in the post-war years and the responses to them of the business community and the propertied classes. Wrigley concludes that `Overall . . . there appears to have been no real revolutionary threat to Britain in 1917±20. However, fears of what had happened in Russia enabled the government to carry forward exceptional measures from war to peace.'

2177 White, S. `Soviet Russia and the Irish Revolution', Irish Slavonic Studies Vol. 5 (1984), pp. 49±56. A brief factual account of Soviet and Comintern attitudes towards events in Ireland from 1919 to 1922.

Presented here is the verbatim record of a momentous occasion: the first direct contact between the revolutionary government of Germany (the Rat der Volksbeauftragten, represented by Hasse) and the Soviet government. The document, which reveals just how unclear the German situation appeared in Moscow at the time, is extensively annotated and introduced by Debo.

[East] Berlin: Akademie Verlag, 1957. 353 pp. An official East German publication based on published materials and unpublished documents from the East German archives, including essays on the Berlin strike of 1917 to 1918, the revolutionary movement in the German Navy, the workers' councils movement, and the attitude of German workers' parties to the October Revolution.

2188 Carsten, F. L. Revolution in Central Europe, 1918±1919. London: Maurice Temple Smith, 1972. 345 pp. A detailed, sober and moderate study of the `defeated' revolutions in Germany and Austria (and, to a lesser extent, Hungary). The work pays particular attention to the role of workers' and soldiers' councils based on the Russian model and to the manner in which fear of Bolshevism strengthened the hand of the political right. The author finds `virtually no evidence of any direct intervention from Moscow' in support of the Putschist super-radicalism of elements of the extreme left. See also Carsten, F. War against War: British and German Radical Movements in the First World War. London: Batsford Academic and Educational, 1982. 285 pp.

A very thorough, detailed and perceptive analysis of how the prospects of revolution in Germany were viewed in Russia by the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks. The author argues that wishful thinking got the better of the Bolsheviks' powers of analysis, that they tended too often to view all events in Germany through the prism of the Russian experience of 1917, and when their views were modified `the changes were related as much to a reappraisal of the situation at home as to any other factor'.

2189 Dietrich, E. `The Fear of Revolution in Rural Austria: The Case of Tyrol', in C. Wrigley (ed.) Challenges of Labour: Central and Western Europe, 1917±1920. London: Routledge, 1992. pp. 215±228. Using Tyrol as a case study, in this piece the author seeks to elucidate the relationship between the Austrian provinces and the capital in the post-war years.

A concise and sensible analysis in which the author argues that `however radical some sections of the German working class became, the prospects of socialist revolution were always remote and became more so as time progressed', as a consequence of the strength of the political right and the divisions between elements of the left.

2197 Kochan, L. `The Impact of Russia on the Weimar Republic', Cambridge Journal Vol. 4 (1951), No. 11, pp. 679±687. An intriguing analysis of the appeal of Bolshevism and political extremism to a variety of groups in Germany during the 1920s and of the forging of a sort of `national bolshevik' ideology. 2198 Koenen, G. and Kopelew, L.

The author finds that although the Neue Freie Presse was the newspaper of educated and prosperous Viennese, it greeted the October Revolution enthusiastically ± as, for the journalists involved (and their readers), Lenin's was a victory for peace ± and reported accurately upon events in Russia.

Utilizing contemporary newspapers and published memoirs, the author charts the rise and fall of the German majority socialists' patriotic anti-Russian sentiment in the aftermath of the revolution of November 1918, arguing that `the tide reached flood stage' in the period prior to June 1919 (when hope still existed that antipathy to Russia might secure lenient terms from the Allies), and declined thereafter.

Utilizing newspapers and other contemporary sources, the author examines the attitudes of the SPD, the USPD and the forerunners of the KPD (the Spartacists and the Left Radicals) to the February and October revolutions to show how these conditioned their conceptions of the role of workers' councils (RaÈte) in Germany.

Oldenbourg, 1992. 328 pp. Utilizing materials from the archives of the SPD and the KPD, the author of this revised dissertation (which focuses very strongly on the years 1917 to 1923) argues that events in Russia, as well as the Bolsheviks' attempts to promote revolution in Germany, pushed the SPD toward the political centre and toward accommodation with the Western powers, as the party sought to avoid the Russian path to socialism. The work is notable too for the emphasis it places on the influence of exiled Mensheviks on the shaping of German socialist opinion.

Paris: Editions sociales, 1967. 382 pp. A full and detailed chronological survey of events in Russia from 1914 to the end of the civil war and of reactions to them in France. The text includes lengthy extracts from the contemporary press and other documents, but the value of the volume is diminished by its overtly pro-Soviet tone: it is dedicated, pointedly, `to the great Lenin, to the glory of the CPSU, and to all those who struggled to assure the victory of the socialist revolution of October 1917, which opened a new era in human history'. 2232 Gaucher, R. Histoire secreÁte du Parti Communiste FrancËais (1920±1974). Paris: Albin Michel, 1974. 704 pp. This rather inflammatory volume includes extensive coverage of the relations between the French Left and the Bolsheviks during the First World War and the Russian revolution.

Paris: Armand Colin, 1972. 310 pp. A collection of texts and first-hand accounts from numerous sources, generously introduced by the authors and boasting a very detailed chronology.

Paris: Les Editions ouvrieÁres, 1964. 333 pp. This history of French trade unionism during the war is centred around the interesting (but ultimately unconvincing) argument that the leaders of both the minority and majority groupings did not do all they might have done to avoid a split.

2244 Rocher, J. LeÂnine et le mouvement zimmerwaldien en France. Paris: Bureau d'Editions, 1934. 82 pp. A French Communist's hackneyed attempt to prove that Lenin single-handedly inspired and masterminded French opposition to the war.

The Response in Belgium and the Netherlands . 2257 Utilizing the reports to Paris of Petit (an expert on Russia who was attached to the French military mission in Russia from September 1916 to March 1917), the author of this piece finds that discussions of the question of a general peace among Western socialists in 1917 (especially the SFIO) were always coloured by the somewhat misleading impressions they had gained of the February Revolution.

Bern: StaÈmpfli, 1981. 331 pp. A scholarly and instructive analysis of how the Switzerland widely regarded as a centre for radical thought of 1918, and scene of a general strike in November of that year, had achieved such an international reputation of SalonfaÈhigkeit (respectability) by 1920 that Geneva was chosen to house the League of Nations. The author argues that internal disturbances and disturbances in Austria and Germany in 1918 to 1919 convinced the Swiss authorities of the need to suppress Bolshevism at home (through legislation) and abroad (through economic aid and the support of various counter-revolutionary groups). 2259 Pianzola, M. `Le parti socialiste suisse l'ombre de LeÂnine', Cahiers internationaux Vol. (1954), pp. 82±92.

Paris: EÂtudes et Documentation Internationales, 1967. pp. 105±125. A useful summary of the impact of events in Russia (from February 1917 to late 1919) upon the politics of the PSI. The author notes how the Russian question acted initially as an important impulse towards mobilization, but later accentuated the divisions which became evident at the Livorno schism.

2272 Davidson, A. `The Russian Revolution and the Formation of the Italian Communist Party', Australian Journal of Politics and History Vol. 10 (1964), No. 3, pp. 355±370. Investigating the origins of the 1921 splitting of the Italian Communist Party from the Italian Socialist Party, the author tests the Socialists' claim that the split resulted from the influence of the Russian revolution and its leaders rather than from, as the Communists claimed, domestic Italian conditions. Davidson concludes that the Socialists' refusal to expel reformists from their midst was the cause of the split: the Socialists `had not understood the tactics called for by Italian conditions, and they destroyed the revolutionary workers' movement in Italy. The Communists were right.' See also Davidson, A. `Gramsci and Lenin, 1917±1922', Socialist Register Vol. 11 (1974), pp. 125±150.

TuÈbingen: BoÈhlau Verlag, 1967. 240 pp. Denied access to the Comintern archives, the author relied upon Italian police, state and private papers and much scarce contemporary literature to construct this clear and detailed narrative, focusing upon the destructive impact upon the CPI of Moscow's insistence that it `purify' itself as a condition of entry to the Comintern. 2279 Leonetti, A.

A useful survey of Serrati's political career from 1917 to 1921, detailing his clashes with the left and right wings of the PSI as well as with the Bolsheviks and the Comintern.

Madrid: Zero, 1974. 121 pp. The record of the extraordinary congress held by the PSOE in April 1921 to determine its position towards the Comintern. The old guard, led by the PSOE's founder Pablo Iglesias, won the day and defeated the so-called Terceristas or supporters of the bolshevization of the party. The latter broke away, founding the Spanish Workers' Communist Party (PCOE). Later that year, the PCOE merged with the Spanish Communist Party (PCE), which had been created a year earlier by the Madrid Socialist Youth.

Mexico City: Impresiones modernas, 1972. 209 pp. The autobiography of JoaquõÂ n Bullejos, the PCE's General Secretary from 1925 to 1932 (the year in which he was purged from his leading position while on a visit in Moscow). Although obviously partisan in his approach, the volume is useful for an understanding of the internal schisms and contradiction which beset the PCE from its first days.

Estudios de Historia Social No.14 (1980), pp. 191±217. An interesting account, by a member of the Socialist Youth, of the steps that led to the organization's split from its elders in the PSOE. The piece also includes some insight of the role played in Spain by the Comintern agents Borodin and Grazidei and illustrates the rivalry between the original young founders of the PCE and those who split from the PSOE in April 1921 to found the PCOE. Portela himself abandoned the Communists and ended up in POUM, the dissident Marxist group.

In this text, Balcells examines the golden years of the CNT, from the peak of its power in 1918, which saw the creation of industrial trade unions (or sindicatos uÂnicos), to the years of social violence and terrorism which led to the seizure of power by the Captain General of Barcelona, Miguel Primo de Rivera, in September 1923. 2309 Bar CedoÂn, A.

A thorough analysis of the spread of Bolshevism and its impact upon the Spanish Socialist party (PSOE).

Madrid: Universidad Nacional de EducacioÂn a Distancia/Biblioteca Nueva, 1999. 350 pp. Despite its title, this book, which is based on an impressive but far from comprehensive selection of primary sources, is almost exclusively concerned with the years 1917 to 1921, but in attempting to deal with too many subjects at once ± among them the reactions to the Russian revolution of the Spanish public and the Spanish state, the visits of Spanish socialists to Moscow, the split in the Spanish labour movement, the emergence of the PCE, etc. ± the author somewhat overstretched himself.

study of the period, carefully detailing the impact of the First World War and the Russian revolution on the Spanish labour movement, the prolonged debates over membership of the Comintern, and the failure of the PCE to establish itself as a an alternative to moderate socialist UGT-PSOE and the anarchosyndicalist CNT.

The author argues that the February Revolution, rather than that of October, was the more welcomed by the left-wing Catalan parties, as Wilson and his promises of selfdetermination for small nations appealed to them more than social revolution.

2316 Izquierdo, M. La Tercera Internacional en EspanÄa. Madrid: Endymion, 1995. 84 pp. A brief but useful work of reference on the Spanish labour movement, the Third International and the impact of Bolshevism in Spain during the period 1916 to 1923.

Cologne: Verlag Wissenschaft und Politik, 1968. 341 pp. The first section of this book consists of a concise narrative of the history of the main Polish Marxist parties and groups; the second, short biographies of thirty-nine key Polish Marxists; the third, and most important, ninety-one original documents, many of which are extremely rare and inaccessible.

Focusing upon the role of BohumõÂ r SÏmeral, the author examines the issue of why, despite the wave of sympathy for the Russian revolution following the events of 1917 and a radical mood favourable to socialism, a Czechoslovak Communist Party did not come into existence until late 1921.

E. `The Revolutionary Russian Army and Roumania, 1917', Carl Beck Papers in Russian and East European Studies No. 1,103 (1995). ii + 94 pp. This careful study of the interaction of the Russian Army and the Roumanians, based upon materials in Roumanian archives as well as in the archives of Roumania's allies and enemies in 1917, concludes that the effect upon developments in Roumania of the Russians' presence in Moldavia and Bessarabia `has been painted in colours altogether too dark by most Roumanian and Western accounts'.

See also Dailami, P. `The Bolsheviks and the Jangali Revolutionary Movement, 1915±1920', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 31 (1990), No. 1, pp. 43±60.

An investigation into the nature of involvement in Iran by a variety of Soviet political and military forces during the period 1919 to 1921 (notably Stalin and Narkomnats, on the one hand, and the Muslim communists led by Sultangaliev on the other) and of the profound repercussions the failure of these actions had upon internal Soviet politics, in particular upon nationalities policy and the subsequent suppression of Pan-Islamism.

2410 Dailami, P. `Bravin in Tehran and the Origins of Soviet Policy in Iran', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 12 (1999), No. 2, pp. 63±82. Challenging those who have assumed that the Soviet government adopted a dual policy in the East, as it did in the West, this study of Bolshevik relations with the Iranian government and the Soviet Republic of Gilan argues that Lenin attempted to come to terms with nationalism even to the extent of dismissing the potential for a revolution based on class struggle in the region.

Pittsburgh, PA: University of Pittsburgh Press, 1995. xxvii + 649 pp. A fascinating, detailed, excellently referenced and impeccably scholarly study of the interaction between Soviet foreign policy, the declining British influence in the region and the indigenous Jangali movement. The work is based upon British, French, German and United States diplomatic papers, as well as newspapers and other published materials in Russian and Persian and materials from the Russian and Azerbaijani archives concerning the Comintern and the Communist Party of Iran. Although the author argues robustly, in principle, against an exaggeration of the role played by external forces in determining Iranian developments at the time, he makes a very strong case for the British having played a central role in the coup of 1921. The volume includes an Epilogue which discusses sources which have become available with the opening of the Russian archives, an Appendix which assembles some forty biographies of leading players and a fine bibliography.

Arguing that Enver Pasha saw in socialism a means of `helping the world of Islam out of an impasse' and that he dreamed of `a Bolshevik pasha in Anatolia', the author of this piece utilizes a range of published Turkish- and Russian-language sources to chronicle, in a usefully concise manner, the relations between Enver Pasha and the Soviet government from their first contacts in 1919 to Enver's death in August 1922. 2413 Dumont, P. `Bolchevisme et Orient: Le parti communiste turc de Mustafa Suphi, 1918±1921', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 18 (1977), No. 4, pp. 377±409. A detailed investigation into the background and thinking of Mustafa Suphi and his role in founding the Turkish Communist Party when a prisoner of war in Russia. The article, based largely upon Turkish sources, concentrates on the period from Mustafa Suphi's entry into Muskom and the publication of the first issue of Yeni DuÈnya in the spring of 1918 to his assassination (along with some fifteen of his comrades) at Trabzon during the night of 28 to 29 January 1921.

Utilizing extensive extracts from archival materials, the author argues that the Bolsheviks wanted Kutchuk Khan, the Jangali leader, to establish a Soviet-type reÂgime without imposing a social revolution because they did not wish to see the Jangalis withdraw from the national revolutionary movement and because, moreover, Moscow did not wish to Sovietize Iran but, rather, to put pressure on London and bring the British government to the negotiating table.

Utilizing the unpublished papers of General Wilhelm Groener, chief representative of the German High Command in Ukraine in early 1918, the author chronicles Germany's (and specifically Groener's) complicity in the overthrow of the Rada and the establishment of Skoropadskyi's hetmanate.

A key theme of both volumes is the friction between Turkey on the one hand and Germany and Austria-Hungary on the other over military and political policies in Transcaucasia, particularly with regard to the plight of the Armenians during the early years of the war and over the fate of Baku in 1918.

German Foreign Office archives are used to sustain the author of this chapter's thesis that the support offered to Ukrainian patriots on their territory by the governments of Berlin and Vienna from the outbreak of war to the collapse of tsarism was `cautious and half-hearted' and that, consequently, the Ukrainian Revolution of 1917 has to be regarded as a spontaneous development, independent of any significant foreign influence.

influence their selection of materials, the work remains useful for its inclusion of hard-to-find documentation (much of it from British socialist sources).

Historiography 2632 Thompson, J. M. `Allied±American Intervention in Russia, 1918±1921', in C. E. Black, (ed.) Rewriting Russian History: Soviet Interpretations of Russia's Past. New York: Praeger, 1957. pp. 334± 400. A very useful introduction to the `bewildering maze of conflicting and often fantastic Soviet interpretations of intervention' to be found in the published works of Lenin and those of Soviet historians from the early 1920s to the mid-1950s.

2636 Mantoux, P. The Deliberations of the Council of Four (March 24±June 28 1919): Notes of the Official Interpreter, Paul Mantoux (ed. and transl. by A. S. Link), 2 vols. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1992. 672 + 509 pp. Originally published in French in 1955, these volumes provide as full a record as is available of the deliberations of Wilson, Lloyd George, Clemenceau and Orlando. Acting as a translator between English and French, Mantoux was present at many more of the sessions (all but one of them, in fact) than was Maurice Hankey, whose records can be found in Volumes Five and Six of Foreign Relations of the United States: The Paris Peace Conference [2935]. Both set down their records after the fact, using a mixture of notes and memory, but the lack of contradictions between the two sets of records is testimony as to their accuracy.

2633 Thompson, J. M. `Lenin's Analysis of Intervention', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 17 (1958), No. 2, pp. 151±160. The author summarizes Lenin's writings on Allied and German intervention in Russia, noting that `he attempted to fit the facts of intervention into his theories of economic and social change' and concluding that this paved the way for later Soviet leaders' belittling of the failure of world revolution and their justification of Socialism in One Country.

2637 Moulis, E. and Bergonier, E. (eds) En marge du conflit mondial: la guerre entre les AllieÂs et la Russie (1918±1920). Paris: Librarie geÂneÂrale de droit et de jurisprudence, 1937. 209 pp. A wide-ranging selection of documents, many of them unavailable elsewhere, are reproduced in this anti-interventionist study, which is particularly critical of French policy in the period.

Paris: Delpeuch, 1926. 392 pp. A collection of eighteen polemical documentary articles, translated from the Russian, written with the general intent of demonstrating Allied responsibility for the civil war and intervention in Russia, and, specifically, to support Soviet claims for damages against the French government. The work was originally published in Moscow in 1925.

officer in Washington, in persuading President Wilson to support and join the intervention.

2639 Bradley, J. F. N. Allied Intervention in Russia, 1917±1920. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1968. xix + 251 pp. Not a comprehensive survey of the intervention, but a rather confusingly organized (and ± in its patchy footnoting ± unscholarly) study of selected topics: the Japanese intervention, prisoners of war in Siberia, intervention in South Russia, the Soviet± Polish War and (at inordinate length for a book of this size) the Czechoslovak Legion. Much of the material appeared in the author's previously published articles. See Bradley, J. F. N. `The Czechoslovak Revolt against the Bolsheviks', Soviet Studies Vol. 15 (1963), No. 2, pp. 124±151; Bradley, J. F. N. `The Allies and Russia in the Light of French Archives', Soviet Studies Vol. 16 (1964), No. 2, pp. 166±185; and Bradley, J. F.

2644 Fry, M. G. `Britain, the Allies and the Problem of Russia, 1918±1919', Canadian Journal of History Vol. 2 (1967), No. 2, pp. 62±84. A chronological account of the debates regarding Russia within the British war cabinet and between Britain and her allies. The author concludes that `the British and Allied deliberations had been naive, confused, and ill-tempered'. 2645 Gardner, L. C. Safe for Democracy: The Anglo-American Response to Revolution, 1913±1923. London: Oxford University Press, 1984. xii + 383 pp. An examination of British±American dialogue and action regarding revolutionary disturbances in Mexico, Russia, Germany and China, focusing upon the role of key policy-makers (especially Woodrow Wilson and Lloyd George).

2640 Braithwaite, P. To Begin at the Beginning: The Objectives of the Allied Subversion and War of Intervention in Soviet Russia, 1917±1920 (pref. by M. Pentz). Great Malvern: Pensioners for Peace, 1985. 84 pp. A reproduction, in book form, of an undergraduate dissertation submitted to Birmingham Polytechnic in 1977, arguing (on the basis of published materials, most of them secondary) that `the motivation and character of Allied intervention in Russia between 1917 and 1920, including the period prior to the end of World War I, were primarily ideological'. The author was a leading member of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

2646 Gaworek, N. H. `From Blockade to Trade: Allied Economic Warfare Against Soviet Russia, June 1919 to January 1920', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 23 (1975), No. 1, pp. 36±69. Based upon research in British and United States government archives, the author traces the history of the Allies' pursuit of `economic warfare' against the Bolsheviks as an inexpensive alternative to military intervention, ascribing its failure above all to the tardiness of its introduction, as a consequence of legal and constitutional caveats raised by the Americans. 2647 Goode, Wm. T. Is Intervention in Russia a Myth. London: Williams & Norgate Ltd., 1931. 126 pp. Arguing that Soviet fears of a renewed intervention (voiced around the time of the trial of the `Industrial Party' of December 1930) had a solid foundation, the author of this volume offers a reminder that the Bolsheviks suffered a prolonged period of intervention from 1918 to 1921, and surveys that period. Goode charges that there would have been no civil war but for the encouragement and military support offered to the Whites by the Allies and claims that `even the horrors committed directly by the ``Whites'' can be laid largely at the door of foreign intervention'.

2641 Coffman, E. M. `The Intervention in Russia, 1918±1921', Military Review Vol. 68 (1988), pp. 60± 71. A brief general survey which concentrates upon military activities in what the author views as an early example of a `limited war'. 2642 Dobson, C. and Millar, J. The Day We Almost Bombed Moscow: The Allied War in Russia, 1918±20. London: Hodder and Stoughton, 1986. 288 pp. A superficial, journalistic and not always accurate popular history of the Allied intervention, which is very Anglocentric in its approach. 2643 Fowler, W.

Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1959. xii + 435 pp. In this important and enduringly influential monograph the evolving war aims of the major belligerents are examined in the context of the Russian upheaval.

2649 Hohlfeld, A. Die besiegten Sieger. Marschall Foch und Winston Churchill im Kampf gegen den Bolschewismus 1918/1919. Hamburg: Hanseatische Verlaganstalt, 1943. 130 pp. The author of this work from the Nazi period argues that the `pro-Bolshevik Jews' behind President Wilson's government conspired to frustrate and defeat the Anglo-French intervention.

2653 Page, W. A. The Field Post of the Czechoslovak and Allied Forces in Russia, 1918±1920: An Anthology. London: Publications of the Czechoslovak Philatelic Society of Great Britain, 1991. iii + 55 pp. 2654 Peltier, M. `Les AllieÂs et la ReÂvolution russe', Revue des deux mondes (1968), pp. 32±42, 304±318. An unremarkable survey of the origins and course of Allied (especially French) intervention in Russia. The author, who was in South Russia at the time, contends that intervention was primarily motivated by the desire to resurrect a front against Germany.

2650 Jackson, R. At War with the Bolsheviks: The Allied Intervention into Russia, 1917±1920. London: Tom Stacey, 1972. 251 pp. Although based only on a limited number of (largely secondary) published sources, this factual chronological survey provides a good introduction to the topic. The author concentrates in particular on the military activities of Allied forces in Russia. The volume includes some useful maps and a number of interesting photographs.

2655 Port, D. The British People Stopped a War. London: n.p., 1945. 21 pp. A survey of the intervention and of contemporary protests against it which is now of interest only as an historiographical oddity. 2656 Silverlight, J. The Victors' Dilemma: Allied Intervention in the Russian Civil War. London: Barrie and Jenkins, 1970. xiii + 392 pp. A colourful but confused and ultimately inadequate synthesis of published English-language sources by a British journalist. The volume concentrates very heavily on the role of Britain but is far inferior to Ullman's work [2707].

2651 Kettle, M. Russia and the Allies: Vol. 1, The Allies and the Russian Collapse, March 1917±March 1918. London: AndreÂ Deutsch, 1981. 287 pp. Kettle, M. Russia and the Allies: Vol. 2, The Road to Intervention, March±November 1918. London: Routledge, 1988. ii + 401 pp. Kettle, M. Russia and the Allies: Vol. 3, Churchill and the Archangel Fiasco, November 1918±July 1919. London: Routledge, 1992. xi + 582 pp. An overbearingly dull diplomatic history of the intervention which myopically concentrates almost exclusively upon the British role (or, rather, upon British War Cabinet views of what the British role should be). The author does nothing to challenge the general conclusions of Richard Ullman [2707], but does add new detail in some respects: Volume I contains some intriguing materials on the schemes of British banks to take over Russian financial institutions in 1917 to 1918; Volume II sheds some new light on the revolt of the Czechoslovak Legion; and Volume III presents new evidence on the influence of Churchill on British policy. All the volumes suffer, however, from incomplete and careless annotation, lack of organization, direction and analytical framework, and chapter titles which bear little resemblance to their contents.

2657 Slonim, I. Stillborn Crusade: The Tragic Failure of Western Intervention in the Russian Civil War, 1918±1920. New Brunswick, NJ: 1996. vii + 236 pp. A tendentious, polemical and partially counterfactual argument that had the Allied leaders followed the wise counsel of Winston Churchill to crush the Soviet reÂgime at birth, the world would have been saved the horrors of fascism in Europe and of Stalinist totalitarianism. The work is based exclusively on well-known published sources. 2658 Warth, R. D. The Allies and the Russian Revolution: From the Fall of the Monarchy to the Peace of Brest-Litovsk. Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 1954. 294 pp. A pioneering analysis of official and unofficial relations between the Allies and the Provisional and Soviet governments by an American scholar.

Covering the years 1919 to 1921, the author analyses the role of the (anti-Bolshevik) Russian Political Conference in Paris, the delegations of the non-Russian peoples of the Empire to the conference, and the attitude of the United States towards their claims for recognition. Also briefly surveyed are the various Russian representatives' attitudes to the League of Nations.

2659 Watson, D. R. `The Rise and Fall of the Russo-Asiatic Bank: Problems of a Russian Enterprise with French Shareholders, 1910±26', European History Quarterly Vol. 23 (1993), No. 1, pp. 39-49. A concise introductory survey of the fate of what had by 1917 become by far the largest bank in Russia and one of the largest in the world. The article is chiefly of interest for the manner in which it describes how (after the decision of its directors in 1919 to 1920 to invest the remainder of its assets in companies involved in trading with the Whites in South Russia) the bank only `retained a shadowy existence until it went into liquidation on 1 October 1926'.

A brief unremarkable account of discussions of the `Russian question' at Paris during 1919. The article is based upon published sources.

THE RUSSIAN QUESTION AT THE PARIS PEACE CONFERENCE Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts

2666 Kennan, G. `Russia and the Versailles Conference', American Scholar Vol. 30 (1960±1961), pp. 13±42. An examination of the five attempts made ± mainly at the instigation of the American and British governments ± to involve Russia in the work of the peace conference, all of which failed as a consequence of the relations between the Allies and Soviet Russia.

2660 Bonsal, S. Suitors and Supplicants: The Little Nations at Versailles (introd. by A. Krock). New York: Prentice Hall, 1946. xiii + 301 pp. This account, written by an officer attached to the American delegation and drawn largely from his personal notes and records, includes some very brief but interesting remarks upon his meetings in Paris with Kerensky, Savinkov and other Russian `delegates' to the Paris Peace Conference in 1919.

2667 Mayer, A. J. Politics and Diplomacy of Peacemaking: Containment and Counter-Revolution at Versailles, 1918±1919. London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1967. x + 918 pp. Based on an enormous number of archival and published sources, this enduringly influential volume avoids the day-to-day business of the conference and the drawing-up of the peace treaties to focus instead upon the immediate concerns of the Big Four in 1918 and 1919. In particular, Mayer emphasizes the Allied leaders' fear that revolution might spread from Russia to Germany and Hungary and examines the policies (such as the support offered to Kolchak and Denikin) they employed as a consequence.

Studies 2661 Dillon, E. J. The Peace Conference. London: Hutchinson & Co., n.d. [1919?]. xi±xii + 439 pp. This contemporary work, by one of the greatest authorities on pre-revolutionary Russia, contains extensive coverage of the `Russian problem' at Paris, but is seriously marred by its anti-Bolshevik bias. 2662 Epstein, F. T. `Zur Interpretation des Versailler Vertrags. Der Polen 1919±1921 erhobene Reparationsanspruch', JahrbuÈ cher fuÈ r Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 5 (1957), pp. 315±335. The author discusses the origins and significance of Section 14 (`Russia and Russian States') Article 116 and Article 117 of the Versailles treaty, the invalidation of Article 116 by the Treaty of Rapallo and the interpretation of Article 116 by the Reparations Commission.

Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1966. vii + 429 pp. A comprehensive, objective and precise study of the `confusion, frustration and failure' of the Allied leaders at Paris in their dealings with the Russian question, utilizing a large body of official and private documents (particularly on the American side).

2674 White, J. A. The Siberian Intervention. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1950. xii + 471 pp. A first-class scholarly monograph (albeit overtly anti-Japanese), based upon a vast array of published and unpublished sources in many languages (listed in the book's excellent bibliography). Almost uniquely, the author was more concerned in establishing the impact of the intervention upon events in Siberia than in elaborating the decision-making 270

Allied Intervention in the Baltic . 2685 Studies

A comprehensive and well-documented monograph, but one which needs to be read with care. The author's thesis is that intervention in North Russia failed because of Allied representatives' (especially the military's) ignorance of the history and politics of the region and because of their refusal to deal with any Russian `who was not a bona fide democrat or even a socialist'. The author was an academic and right-wing politician active in the region, and his sympathies for the organizers of the Chaplin coup are clear. See also Strakhovsky, L. I. `The Allies and the Supreme Administration of the Northern Region, August 2nd±October 7th 1918', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 20 (1941), pp. 102±123; and Strakhovsky, L.

2679 Long, J. `An Intervention in Russia: The North Russian Expedition, 1918±1919', Diplomatic History Vol. 6 (1982), No. 1, pp. 45±68. On the basis of published and archival materials, the author of this thoughtful account (which is a summary of his regretably unpublished PhD thesis) argues that the history of the North Russian expedition is `more representative of Washington's real attitude toward involvement in Russia' than that of the more frequently studied Siberian expedition (whose operations were complicated by the spectre of Japan), and concludes that `in the case of North Russia, there is simply no evidence to support the contention that President Wilson was motivated by an ideological desire to crush Bolshevism and convert the Russians to his own political convictions'.

London: Greenwood Press, 1988. xii + 156 pp. Based upon American and British archival sources, this useful and colourful military history of the activities of the 339th American Infantry in North Russia is highly critical of the British planning of the intervention, characterized by the author as `founded upon misinformation . . ., profound geographical and political misconceptions and a generous supply of wishful thinking', and of the British treatment of American troops under their command.

White Russian Awards to British and Commonwealth Servicemen during the Allied Intervention in Russia, 1918±1920. With a Roll of Honour. London: T.

The British Role (General) . 2700 aspects of British and Allied policy toward the collapse of the Russian Empire and the emergence of the Soviet reÂgime during the civil-war years. The following are of particular note: Volume I concerns the Treaty of Saint-Germain-en-Laye and includes discussion on Bessarabia, Poland and the Baltic States; Volume III is dedicated to German withdrawal from the Baltic theatre, the status of Eastern Galicia and Allied policy toward Russia from 1919 to 1920; Volume VIII includes materials on the visit of the Soviet trade delegation to London of 1920 and the Soviet±Polish War; Volume XI concerns Upper Silesia, Poland and the Baltic States from January 1920 to March 1921; and Volume XII covers the Balkans in 1920 and Russia and Transcaucasia from 1920 to early 1921.

Europe, Soviet Russia, Asia Minor, the Middle East, Persia, etc.) provides a particular insight into the policy divisions between Curzon and Lloyd George. The work is based upon extensive use of British Foreign Office papers and no fewer than sixty sets of private papers. 2696 Churchill, W. S. The World Crisis: The Aftermath. London: T. Butterworth, 1929. 474 pp. The last volume in Churchill's extensive personalized account of the war includes chapters on Russia from the February Revolution to the Treaty of BrestLitovsk, the Allied intervention and the civil war. 2697 Debo, R. K. `Lloyd George and the Copenhagen Conference of 1919±1920: The Initiation of Anglo-Soviet Negotiations', Historical Journal Vol. 24 (1981), No. 2, pp. 429±441. The author of this interesting piece argues that Lloyd George was never a convinced believer in Allied intervention: in fact, in a careful act of subterfuge (which was deliberately intended to bypass his conservative opponents), he made use of the O'Grady±Litvinov talks on the exchange of prisoners of war as a means of establishing a channel of communication between Moscow and Downing Street in order to ascertain the basis upon which the Soviet government would make peace.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 2694 Lloyd George, D. War Memoirs, 6 vols. London: Nicholson & Watson, 1933±1936. The fifth volume of the wartime prime minister's memoirs contains his views on Russia from the time of the February Revolution down to and including the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk; the sixth deals with the early stages of the intervention. For his account of British policy toward Russia at the Peace Conference, see Lloyd George, D. The Truth about the Peace Treaties, 2 vols. London: Gollancz, 1938 1471 pp. Also Lloyd George, D.

2701 . 16 The Allied Intervention 2701 Maddox, W. P. Foreign Relations in British Labour Politics. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1934. 253 pp. Rather misleadingly entitled, this volume is chiefly of note for its brief account of Labour's Councils of Action during the Polish±Soviet War of 1920.

2706 Sellen, R. W. `The British Intervention in Russia, 1917±1920', Dalhousie Review Vol. 40 (1960), pp. 360±371, 520±521. A brief chronological narrative of the British intervention, based on published sources. The author argues that British involvement in Russia sprang from anti-German not anti-Bolshevik motives and that intervention was doomed from the moment the armistice was signed.

2702 Millman, B. `The Problem with Generals: Military Observers and the Origins of the Intervention in Russia and Persia, 1917±1918', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 33 (1998), No. 2, pp. 291±320. Surveying the activities of Generals Dunsterville, Malleson, Poole and Knox, the author of this entertaining piece argues that the `driving force' behind transforming British intervention from an exercise to contain Germany into an anti-Bolshevik crusade `was almost always a British general on the ground' who had `confused national interest with personal inclination'.

Anglo-Soviet Relations, 1917±1921: Vol. 3, The Anglo-Soviet Accord. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1972. xv + 509 pp. This monumental study provides the most careful, comprehensive, balanced and insightful account of the British intervention. Volume 1, written at a time when British government archives on the period were still closed, clearly and effectively surveys the origins of the intervention on the basis of a wide range of published sources in English, French, German and Russian, as well as the private papers of Lord Milner and William Wiseman among others. For volumes 2 and 3 Ullman was able to make use of the official records to provide the definitive study of British military and political operations in Russia, British policy-making on Russia, the Soviet±Polish War and the AngloRussian Trade Agreement.

New York: St Martin's Press, 1987. xii + 138 pp. A collection of essays centring upon Russian, British and German relations from Brest-Litovsk to the armistice of November 1918. The author's contention is that the British offensive at Amiens in August 1918 was decisive in the military collapse of the Central Powers and, thereby, was equally significant in the preservation of Bolshevik Russia from German domination. 2704 Perrett, B. and Lord, A. The Czar's British Squadron (fwd. by the Duke of Edinburgh).

2708 Woodward, D. R. `British Intervention in Russia During the First World War', Military Affairs Vol. 41 (1977), pp. 171±175. A valuable description and critical evaluation of the British military's attitude to revolutionary Russia in the period November 1917 to November 1918, examining the strategies employed by the General Staff in an attempt to return Russia to the war (judged by the author to be unrealistic), the parts played by Field Marshals Sir William Robertson and Sir Henry Wilson and General Alfred Knox, and the means by which pro-interventionist soldiers exerted influence on the more circumspect political authorities. The author had access to British state papers not available to Richard Ullman during the researching of the first volume of his trilogy [2707], but the article does not contain references.

ZuÈrich: Atlantis, 1974. 389 pp. A thorough and stimulating scholarly survey of British intervention and anti-Bolshevik military activities, based upon German- and (especially) English-language published and unpublished sources. The author's contention is that British action in Russia was largely shaped by Churchill's determined and vehement anti-Bolshevism and by his ability to convince other members of Lloyd George's coalition government that the Bolshevik reÂgime had to be strangled at birth. The volume includes a good bibliography, listing contemporary publications and unpublished theses and dissertations.

London: Cassell, 1938. 380 pp. The intriguing account of a British secret serviceman's underground activity in Russia from 1919 to 1920, which is rather less reticent with regard to detail than the (equally entertaining) earlier version: Dukes, Sir P.

London: Putnam, 1932. 355 pp. A brilliantly written minor classic of popular autobiography, this volume constitutes the memoirs of the distinguished diplomat and journalist's activities in the British consulate in Moscow from 1912 to September 1917, and tells (albeit briefly and sometimes deliberately inaccurately) of his part in a mission of January 1918 to establish contacts with Bolshevik leaders. Suspected by the Cheka of spying, Lockhart was arrested following the attempt on Lenin's life of 30 August 1918 and briefly held prisoner by the Soviet government before being exchanged for Maxim Litvinov in October.

London: Elkin, Matthews and Mariot, 1931. 304 pp. Although this work is credited to the `Master Spy' himself, and may have been based upon notes compiled by Reilly prior to his mysterious disappearance in Russia in 1925, the bulk of this potboiling `memoir', written in a style reminiscent of a `penny dreadful', was probably written by Reilly's third and last wife, Pepita Bobadilla Chambers Reilly (Nelly Louise Burton) in collaboration with the journalist Stuart Atherley, neither of whom appears to have known very much of the career, character and intentions of Sidney Reilly. The book was also heavily edited and censored by concerned parties such as Bruce Lockhart and George Hill. (According to Lockhart's own book on Reilly [2726], this book was withdrawn from publication after only 2000 copies had been printed because of legal action taken against the publishers and the London Evening Standard by Reilly's wife.)

This general survey of the `cloak and dagger' operations mounted by Western and Soviet agents over the years includes an interesting section on `Boris Savinkov and Sidney Reilly', as well as a glossary and bibliography.

This intriguing piece of historical detective work consists of an expertly realized and minutely detailed annotation of a document from the former KGB archives, containing the brief notes Reilly made in the days prior to his (presumed) execution. In this `Diary' Reilly recounted his interrogation on matters relating primarily to his and others' intelligence activities in Russia during 1918.

2721 Debo, R. K. `Lockhart Plot or Dzerzhinskii Plot?', Journal of Modern History Vol. 43 (1971), No. 3, pp. 413±439. On the basis of British Foreign Office archives and two Soviet accounts of the 1960s, the author finds that, contrary to Lockhart's published memoirs, the British agent was intimately involved in a series of conspiracies to overthrow the Soviet government in the spring and summer of 1918 (including the wild schemes of Sidney Reilly), but that the so-called `Lockhart Plot' of August, unbeknownst to Lockhart himself, was a cunning `sting' deliberately manufactured and controlled by Felix Dzierzynski as a means of discrediting the Allies.

2720 Brook-Shepherd, G. The Iron Maze: The Western Secret Services and the Bolsheviks. London: Macmillan, 1998. 402 pp. This rather long-winded and amateurish study surveys the Lockhart Plot, the work of Sidney Reilly and Boris Savinkov (both in 1918 and afterwards), the relations between General Knox and Admiral Kolchak, and the espionage activities of Paul Dukes. Although notable for its use of previously unseen papers of the British secret service and the personal papers of the Soviet defector General Aleksandr Orlov, the volume adds little to earlier publications on its subjects and contains numerous factual inaccuracies. The author worked for the British intelligence establishment.

2722 Gladstone, K. `Film as Allied Assistance: Captain Broomhead's Mission to Russia, 1916± 1917', Imperial War Museum Review No. 9 (1994), pp. 61±74. An interesting account of the mission of Captain Alfred Broomhead to Russia from February 1916 to September 1917, during which time he toured the front showing the propaganda film Britain Prepared, as testament to his country's commitment to war until victory. Broomhead found that the February Revolution had a detrimental effect on the sympathy of audiences, particularly on the Roumanian Front.

2718 Ainsworth, J. `Sidney Reilly's Reports from South Russia, December 1918±March 1919', Europe± Asia Studies Vol. 50 (1998), No. 8, pp. 1447±1470. An attempt to assess the function and achievements of Reilly's performance in the field as an agent for MI6. The piece is useful for its assiduous citing of references to Reilly in all manner of materials on intelligence work, but is primarily concerned with the genesis and contents of the twelve dispatches Reilly prepared concerning affairs in South Russia which were delivered to the Foreign Office by George Hill on 1 March 1919. The author finds that Reilly consistently championed Denikin and the Volunteer Army over other anti-Bolshevik elements, even going so far as to deliberately distort information in their favour.

He concludes that, with the exception of the precise role of Reilly, `the Lockhart Plot now stands more or less fully revealed'. See also Long, J.

2724 Jeffreys-Jones, R. `W. Somerset Maugham: Anglo-American Agent in Revolutionary Russia', American Quarterly Vol. 28 (1976), No. 1, pp. 90± 106. Although admitting that `in his various reports between mid-September and mid-October 1917, Maugham did at times make more nonsense than sense out of the confused politics of revolutionary Russia', the author asserts that, contrary to the impression conveyed by Maugham himself and by his chief biographers, his mission was not a failure. Rather, his messages were influential upon subsequent American policy (in the spring of 1918) for `unlike other sources of intelligence, he gave due warning of Kerensky's infirmity, of Bolshevik strength, and of Polish and Czech possibilities'.

2728 McKay, C.G. `Our Man in Reval', Intelligence and National Security Vol. 9 (1994), No. 1, pp. 88± 111. Utilizing materials from the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the author of this piece examines Ronald Forbes Meiklejohn's supply of information to London (and Stockholm) in 1921 regarding events in Soviet Russia and regarding the alleged Bolshevik subversion and intrigue directed against British imperial interests. Appended are a list of Meiklejohn's reports located in the Riksarkivet and the texts of four of the reports. 2729 Marchand, R. Allied Agents in Soviet Russia. London: The People's Russian Information Bureau, 1918. 7 pp. Includes the famous letter from Marchand (the correspondent of Le Figaro) to Raymond PoincareÂ (the French President) which was seized by the Cheka during a `raid' on Marchand's flat. The letter allegedly revealed the scope of the so-called `Lockhart Plot'.

2725 Kettle, M. Sidney Reilly: The True Story. New York: London: Corgi Books, 1983. 144 pp. A popular, sensationalized account of `the most successful spy ever employed by the British Secret Service', said by the author to have acted between 1918 and 1924 `on a heroic scale as a maker and indeed breaker of Governments'. Much of the information in this volume is impossible to square with that presented in Lockhart's account [2726].

2730 Neilson, K. `Joy Rides'? British Intelligence and Propaganda in Russia, 1914±1917', Historical Journal Vol. 24 (1981), No. 4, pp. 885±906. An interesting (and often amusing) account of the founding and operation of British intelligence and propaganda agencies in Russia from August 1914 to the October Revolution, assessing the roles of (among others) Sir Paul Dukes, General Knox, Bruce Lockhart, Sir George Buchanan, Bernard Pares, Somerset Maugham and Hugh Walpole.

2726 Lockhart, R. B. Reilly: Ace of Spies. London: Futura, 1984. 252 pp. Useful, although sensationalized and not always accurate, this work amends and corrects certain of the conclusions in Robin Bruce Lockhart's earlier book: Lockhart, R. B. Ace of Spies: Sidney Reilly. London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1967. 192 pp. Notably, it concludes that Reilly long harboured pro-Bolshevik sympathies and ultimately defected to the Soviet Union. The author was the son of Sir Robert Bruce Lockhart.

2731 Occleshaw, M. Armour against Fate: British Military Intelligence in the First World War and the Secret Rescue from Russia of the Grand Duchess Tatiana. London: Columbus Books, 1989. 423 pp. Includes one lengthy chapter (pp. 251±287) relating to attempts by the Royal Family and British intelligence to rescue the Romanovs. The author concludes that `one Grand Duchess was secretly rescued by British Intelligence acting on King George V's direct orders'.

2732 . 16 The Allied Intervention 2732 Plotke, A. J. Imperial Spies Invade Russia: The British Intelligence Interventions, 1918. London: Greenwood Press, 1993. xiv + 283 pp. This rather opaque and cumbersomely written study of the development and operations of the nascent British intelligence forces, based upon British and Canadian state archives, includes sections on North Russia, South Russia and the history of Dunsterforce. The author treats the `intelligence invasions' within the context of `Imperial motivations and individual eccentricity', but seems unjustifiably to minimize the role of political decision-makers in London.

A chronicle of British intelligence-gathering operations on events in Russia, focusing upon the role of Robert Bruce Lockhart from January to October 1918 and on the information gleaned from Russian and other refugees in the subsequent period. The author contends that the British government's `half-hearted commitment to the cause of intervention' precluded the successful gathering, appraisal and assessment of information. 2737 Spence, R. B. `The Terrorist and the Master Spy: The Political ``Partnership'' of Boris Savinkov and Sidney Reilly, 1918±1925', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 4 (1991), No. 1, pp. 111±131. An absorbing account of the relations between Savinkov and Reilly during the years of the civil war and after, concluding, speculatively, that the `Master Spy' ultimately betrayed Savinkov to the Bolsheviks. See also Spence, R. B. `Sidney Reilly in America, 1914±1917', Intelligence and National Security Vol. 10 (1995), No. 1, pp. 92±121.

2733 van der Rhoer, E. Master Spy: A True Story of Allied Espionage in Bolshevik Russia. New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1981. xi + 260 pp. Dwelling upon the sensational and the scandalous, the author (a former CIA cryptographer) reconstructs the career of Sidney Reilly from largely familiar sources, focusing in particular upon his role in the `Lockhart Plot'. The author regard's Reilly's relationship with Boris Savinkov as a key to understanding his activities, but concludes that the selfstyled `Master Spy' was in the pay of the Soviets.

2738 Swain, G. R. `Maugham, Masaryk and the ``Mensheviks'' ', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 7 (1994), No. 1, pp. 78±97. The author traces the origins of the British policy in Russia during the first half of 1918 (involving the co-ordination of anti-Bolshevik activity on the parts of moderate socialists and the Czechoslovak Legion) to the secret service mission of Somerset Maugham during the autumn of 1917 and his dealings with Thomas Masaryk. On Maugham's mission see also Calder, R. L. W. Somerset Maugham and the Quest for Freedom. London: William Heineman, 1972. xii + 324 pp. Maugham's own writings of interest include Ashenden: Or, the British Agent. London: William Heineman, 1928. x + 304 pp.; The Summing-Up.

2734 Sanders, M. L. `British Film Propaganda in Russia, 1916±1918', Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television Vol. 3 (1983), No. 2, pp. 117±129. An account of the `remarkable pioneering efforts' as a propagandist of Captain A. C. Broomhead, who undertook three tours of Russian cities and the front lines to exhibit Britain Prepared, Battle of the Somme and other morale-raising films. The author contends that Broomhead's work had a direct influence (not least in the technical field) upon subsequent Bolshevik propaganda campaigns during the civil war. 2735 Sayers, M. and Kahn, A. E. The Great Conspiracy against Russia (introd. by C. Pepper). New York: Boni & Gaer, 1946. 486 pp. The first section of this curious study of Western and eÂmigreÂ intrigues against Soviet Russia, entitled `Revolution and Counter-Revolution', tells the story of American and British efforts to undermine the Bolshevik government through military intervention and, especially, covert operations on Soviet territory. Heavily featured in the text are the activities of Raymond Robins and the adventures of the `Master Spy', Sidney Reilly. The authors were two American communists.

2739 Swain, G. R. ` ``An Interesting and Plausible Proposal'': Bruce Lockhart, Sidney Reilly and the Latvian Riflemen, Russia, 1918', Intelligence and National Security Vol. 14 (1999), No. 3, pp. 81±102. Throwing significant new light on the `Lockhart Plot', the author seeks to establish why Britain's Russia expert and her `Master Spy' thought that Lenin's `praetorian guard', the Latvian Riflemen, might be turned against the Soviet reÂgime. Swain finds, on the basis of newly available archival evidence, that anti-Bolshevik sentiment was growing among Latvian troops during the autumn of 1918, giving Lockhart and Reilly plausible grounds to embark on the enterprise: it was `an interesting and

2745 Pridham, Sir A. F. Close of a Dynasty (fwd. by Grand Duchess Xenia Alexandrovna). London: Allan Wingate, 1956. 176 pp. This retouched memoir of events in South Russia and (chiefly) on the Black Sea includes an account of the author's part, as a vice-admiral commanding the Royal Navy's HMS Malborough, in the evacuation of the Dowager Empress Marie and other members of the imperial family from Sebastopol in 1919.

2740 Winstone, H. V. F. The Illicit Adventure: The Story of Political and Military Intelligence in the Middle East from 1898 to 1926. London: Jonathan Cape, 1982. xv + 528 pp. Includes passing mentions of Russian affairs during the revolutionary period.

2746 Williamson, H. N. H. Farewell to the Don: The Journal of Brigadier H. N. H. Williamson (ed. by J. Harris). London: Collins, 1970. 288 pp. Based on the author's diary of April 1919 to early 1920 (during which period he served as a volunteer with the British military mission, advising on the use of artillery in the Don Cossack region), this exciting, intensely personal account is most revealing with regard to the complete ignorance of Russian affairs which characterized the majority of interventionist officers, and to their frustration with the incompetence of the Whites.

BRITISH INTERVENTION IN SOUTH RUSSIA Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 2741 Aten, M. and Orrmont, A. The Last Train over Rostov Bridge. New York: Julian Messner, 1961. xii + 340 pp. A vivid, if somewhat overly dramatized, account of service from March 1919 to January 1920 in support of Denikin's forces (mainly in the Tsaritsyn region) with the RAF's No. 47 Squadron by an American pilot, Captain Marion Aten. The memoir includes some sharp criticisms of Denikin and a warm appreciation of Wrangel.

Studies 2747 Blouet, B. W. `Sir Halford Mackinder as British High Commissioner to South Russia, 1919± 1920', Geographical Journal (1976), pp. 228±236. An account of the short-lived mission to Denikin, on behalf of the British Foreign Office, of the famous geographer. The author notes that Mackinder's visit to South Russia and his view of Bolshevism led him to advance a plan to the British Cabinet with the aim of creating new states in Eastern Europe to curtail the potential of Soviet power ± an idea related to the `Heartland' thesis developed in Mackinder's Democratic Ideas and Reality. London: Constable, 1919, and other works.

2742 Bridges, Lt.-General Sir T. Alarms and Excursions: Reminiscences of a Soldier (fwd. by W. S. Churchill). London: Longmans, 1938. 361 pp. Includes the author's account of his service at Novorossisk in 1919. 2743 Cameron, Captain E. P. Goodbye Russia: Adventures of HM Transport `Rio Negro' (fwd. by J. Masefield). London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1934. xv + 244 pp. The author of this detailed account (which is based on his diary), a captain of the British merchant marine, evacuated British troops and Russian refugees from Odessa, Batum and other Black Sea ports during the civil war. The Rio Negro was acting as a hospital and rescue ship in the area. The volume includes a number of extremely interesting photographs.

2748 Jones, H. A. Over the Balkans and South Russia: Being the History of No. 47 Squadron Royal Air Force. London: Edward Arnold, 1923. ix + 176 pp. Includes a disappointingly brief account of the squadron's service in support of Denikin's forces from June to October 1919.

2744 Lucker, N. (ed. and introd.) `Letters from Ernest B. Appleyard RN to his Wife, April 1919± January 1920', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 9 (1983), pp. 127±148. Presented here are thirteen letters (with additional annotations by Evan Mawdsley) describing Appleyard's service on HMS Stuart of the Royal Navy ± one of the vessels involved in the evacuation of anti-Bolshevik forces and refugees from Sebastopol, Odessa, Yalta, and other ports on the Black Sea.

2749 Morris, L. `Disillusioned Friends: British Officers in Southern Russia, 1919±1920', Army Quarterly and Defence Journal Vol. 109 (1979), No. 3, pp. 319±336. An unusual account of the motivations and operations of the British officers serving with Denikin's army (including RAF Squadron No. 47). The article is based upon British War Office files and a large number of private papers. 279

2750 . 16 The Allied Intervention BRITISH INTERVENTION IN SIBERIA AND THE FAR EAST

The memoirs, extremely anti-Bolshevik in tone, of a leading member of the British Military Mission to Siberia. Unfortunately the volume begins only with an account of the fall of Omsk in November 1918 and the retreat of Kolchak's army over the following winter. Consequently, the author concentrates upon his and other British officers' capture by the Bolsheviks at Krasnoiarsk in January 1920 (and their imprisonment and subsequent repatriation under the Litvinov±O'Grady agreement) and says nothing of his earlier service in support of the Whites. See also McCullagh, F. `The Design of the Bolsheviks', Nineteenth Century No. 88 (1920), pp. 199±208; and McCullagh, F. `In Red Ekaterinburg', Fortnightly Review No. 108 (1920), pp. 724±737.

Farthing BEM in Siberia, 1918±1920: A Memoir', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 8 (1982), pp. 93±99. A very brief account of the author's service with the British Military Mission in Siberia, which provides little or no insight into the `colourful and exciting' adventures he claims to have enjoyed there. The piece does, however, throw the amount of travelling involved into sharp relief: Farthing recalls journeying some 16,000 miles on the Trans-Siberian Railway between December 1918 and January 1920.

2755 O'Connor, Lt.-Colonel Sir F. On the Frontier and Beyond: A Record of Thirty Years Service. London: John Murray, 1931. 369 pp. Includes brief details of the author's service with the British Military Mission to Siberia in 1918.

2751 Gerhardie, W. Memoirs of a Polyglot. London: Duckworth, 1931. 408 pp. The memoirs of the noted British novelist who served with Britmis at Vladivostok in 1919. The volume includes some interesting detail on the life of British officers attached to the mission, but the author rarely ventured away from the Pacific coast and so was unable to provide a broader picture of events. Gerhardie also published an autobiographical novel about life in Vladivostok during the revolutionary period: Gerhardie, W. Futility: A Novel on Russian Themes. London: R. Cobden-Sanderson, 1927. 256 pp.

2756 `Onlooker' `With the British Mission in Siberia, 1919', National Review Vol. 75 (1920), pp. 386±396. A predictably naive account by an anonymous `participant' in Britmis of its activities in support of the Kolchak reÂgime. The piece is most notable, perhaps, for its criticism of Russian officers' indifference and opposition to the best efforts of the interventionists.

2752 Hodges, Major P. Britmis: A Great Adventure of the War. Being an Account of Allied Intervention in Siberia and Escape across the Gobi to Peking. London: Jonathan Cape, 1931. 364 pp. An account of the experiences of a member of the British Military Mission to Siberia in the period January 1919 to May 1920, including details of the author's flight across the Gobi Desert after the collapse of Dutov's forces, to which he had been assigned as a liaison officer. Although interesting in itself, the work provides little insight into the wider issues of the intervention and civil war.

2757 Preston, T. Before the Curtain. London: John Murray, 1950. 313 pp. Includes the author's account of his service as British consul at Ekaterinburg during 1917 and 1918 and his impressions of White rule and Allied intervention at Omsk and Vladivostok in 1919. 2758 Prinsep, Colonel E. S. M. `Knox's Mission, Siberia, 1919±1920: The Personal Reminiscences of One of its Members', Army Quarterly Vol. 81 (1960) No. 1, pp. 54±69. These inconsequential notes dwell predominantly upon the social life of British officers in Siberia in 1919, but are unusual in respect of their positive remarks regarding the leadership and fighting capacity of the Red Army.

2753 Horrocks, Sir B. A Full Life. London: Collins, 1960. 320 pp. The author served as one of the few Russianspeaking British officers with the Military Mission in Siberia, notably at a training school for officers of Kolchak's army at Ekaterinburg in 1919, before being taken prisoner by the Bolsheviks ± an episode briefly recounted in this autobiography.

British Intervention in North Russia . 2767 in Siberia. Most interesting are the author's observations of the Gajda putsch of 17 November 1919. (The typescript of the full memoir is held by the National Army Museum in London.)

The noted British statesman who is the subject of this autobiography served as a young officer in Siberia with General Knox. Herein James quotes heavily from Cazalet's unpublished memoirs and diaries to record his entirely negative impressions of Siberia and the Kolchak reÂgime.

2760 Vining, L. E. Held by the Bolsheviks: The Diary of a British Officer in Russia, 1919±1920. London: St Catherine's Press, 1924. 281 pp. The account, in diary form, of the experiences of a member of the British Military Mission from May 1919 to October 1920. Vining was captured by the Reds at Krasnoiarsk in January 1920 and repatriated later in the year.

An interesting research note, detailing the efforts of the British government and British companies to take advantage of the civil war in order to maximize and protract their established economic interests in Siberia. The piece is based upon British archival materials.

2761 Ward, Colonel J. With the `Die-Hards' in Siberia. London: Cassell & Co., 1920. 278 pp. This amusingly written account by the Labour (later Liberal) MP of his service in Siberia, as commander of the Middlesex Regiment from July 1918 to June 1919, contains a great deal of useful information (including one of the few eyewitness accounts in English of the Kolchak coup). The coverage of the regiment's Siberian sojourn, to be found in its official history ± Wyrall, E. The DieHards in the Great War, 2 vols. London: Harrison and Sons, 1930. 342 + 383 pp. ± is derived almost entirely from Ward. On the other British regiment involved in this theatre see Atkinson, C. T. and Daniell, A. S.

2765 Long, J. `General Sir Alfred Knox and the Russian Civil War: A Brief Commentary', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 9 (1983), pp. 54±64. This brief biography of Knox, the long-serving military attacheÂ in Petrograd (and, from 1918 to 1919, commander of the British forces in Siberia and Chef d'ArrieÁre of Kolchak's Russian Army) includes the text of a letter he sent to the American clergyman and scholar George Stewart in 1924, commenting upon his own experiences with Kolchak's force and upon the White movement and the intervention in general. 2766 Steeds, D. `The Ending of a Highly Discreditable Enterprise: Miles Lampson in Siberia, 1919± 1920', International Studies Vol. 1 (1981), pp. 1±26. This assessment of the performance of the last British High Commissioner to Siberia, based largely upon the Killearn papers, adds a few significant details to the history of the Allies' relations with Kolchak in the dying days of his reÂgime and includes some revelations about the fate of some reputed remains and relics of the Romanovs.

Studies 2762 Collins, D. N. `British Interest and Interests in Siberia, 1900±1922', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 9 (1996), No. 2, pp. 206±233. Utilizing a host of rare and unusual contemporary materials, many of them commercial and financial periodical publications, the author traces the waxing and waning of British academic, economic and political interest in Siberia at the beginning of the twentieth century, focusing in particular upon the impact of war, revolution and civil war. The military intervention is mentioned only in passing, but this article provides revealing indications of the expectant atmosphere and not entirely altruistic aims with which intervention was launched.

A brief account of the author's experiences and British naval and military operations at Murmansk and Archangel from the spring of 1918 to the autumn of 1919, remarkable only for its relating of `lighter aspects of the expedition' (i.e., social life) and for its assertion that there was `little real hatred of the ``Bolo'' ' by the British troops and that `this was undoubtedly largely reciprocal'. See also Evans, F. `They Grew Food on Cloth', Soldier Vol. 13 (1957), No. 7, p. 28.

Franks, includes one chapter (pp. 107±157), entitled `Private War in North Russia' (and apparently based on Jones's diary), recounting the Welsh pilot's participation in the Archangel expedition. In his work, which is strong on both boyish joviality and pathos, Jones concludes that `the expedition was a failure, not because the idea was not a sound one, but because too few troops were used'.

London: Hutchinson & Co., 1940. 250 pp. Writing at the time of the Soviet±Finnish War, the author (a correspondent of the London Times who was accompanying the British forces in North Russia from April to October 1919) allowed a strong anti-Soviet bias to colour this account of the expedition.

London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1928. xii + 322 pp. An account of the expedition by the commanderin-chief of the Allied forces in North Russia from May 1918 to September 1919.

Mack, 1920. 362 pp. These military memoirs include a lengthy chapter (pp. 307±362), entitled `Archangel ± The Armoured Train', recounting the author's participation in a mission to capture the train `Askold' (which was lying in the river at Murmansk and was in Bolshevik hands) and revealing details of how it was subsequently utilized in support of the imminent Allied intervention in the region. Written in the style of an adventure novel, the piece is of little informational value to anyone without a penchant for militaria.

The letter is reprinted as a prologue. The author was a noted British communist.

London: Frederick Muller, 1967, 270 pp. Includes a brief account of its subject's participation in the intervention in North Russia ± an experience which supplied him with such a supply of anecdotes and stories about the Bolsheviks (`the Bolos') that he acquired a nickname which stuck to him for life. 284

He comments too on the taking of Kokand by the Bolsheviks and on the missions of Colonel Bailey and Captain Blacker. 2812 McDonell, R. `. . . And Nothing Long'. London: Edward Arnold, 1938. 328 pp. This entertaining memoir includes an account of the author's service as British Vice-Consul in Baku, his failed efforts to induce the local Bolshevik leader Shaumian to invite the intervention of Dunsterforce in the spring of 1918, and his subsequent selfconfessed involvement in `a network of political conspiracies' aimed at bringing about the overthrow of the Baku Commune.

2806 Etherton, P. T. In the Heart of Asia. London: Constable, 1925. 305 pp. The author of this useful volume was British consul at Kashgar during the civil-war period. Here he reports mainly upon events in Sinkiang, but describes also developments in Russian Turkestan and British perceptions of Bolshevik designs upon Asia. 2807 French, Lieutenant-Colonel F. J. F.

The Spy Who Disappeared: Diary of a Secret Mission to Russian Central Asia in 1918 (introd. and epilogue by P. Hopkirk). London: Victor Gollancz, 1990. 216 pp. An edited version of the diary of the British political officer serving in Baku and Transcaspia who was often indicted by Soviet historians for his part in the execution of the Twenty-Six Commissars. (To evade Soviet persecution the author changed his name to Ronald Sinclair in 1922 and lived as such until his death in 1988.) That incident, however, occupies only three pages of this volume, which is chiefly of interest for its description of the confusion which reigned among both interventionist and local anti-Bolshevik forces in Transcaspia.

2814 Malleson, W. `The Twenty-Six Commissars', Fortnightly Review No. 193 (1933), pp. 333±348. Despite its title, only the closing pages of this article deal with the case of the Twenty-Six Commissars, the major part of the piece relating the general history of the author's mission. While unable to summon up any sympathy for those murdered, Malleson argues that his mission attempted to save their lives, while concluding that insufficient evidence existed to determine whether the ultimate responsibility lay with the Ashkabad Government or with renegade elements of it at Krasnovodsk. For a sympathetic commentary on Malleson's account see [Anon.] `The Twenty-Six Commissars', Journal of the Royal Central Asian Society Vol. 20 (1933), No. 3, pp. 418±426.

An account of British military operations in Transcaspia by an officer who took part in the mission. The article (actually the text of a lecture delivered before the society) is notable for its candid claim that the mission had a specifically antiBolshevik purpose. See also Tod, Col. J. K. `Operations in Trans-Caspia, 1918±1919', The Army Quarterly Vol. 16 (1928), No. 2, pp. 280±303.

C. Armstrong (ed.) On the Run: Escaping Tales. London: Rich & Cowan, 1934. pp. 25±55. The remarkable account of the author's experiences as a hostage of the Jangalist forces near Enzeli during the spring and summer of 1918.

H. `Dunsterville's Adventures: A Reappraisal', International Journal of Middle East Studies Vol. 12 (1980), pp. 199±216. Utilizing recently available British state papers, the author challenges the traditional Western interpretation of the deÂbaÃcle at Baku of September 1918, placing most of the responsibility for the loss of the city to combined Ottoman and Azerbaijani forces on the British general's shoulders rather than on those of the allegedly unreliable Armenians. Arslanian stresses in particular Dunsterville's error of judgement in insisting that a small force would be sufficient to defend Baku. See also Arslanian A. H. `Britain and the Transcaucasian Nationalities during the Russian Civil War', in R. G. Suny (ed.) Transcaucasia: Nationalism and Social Change.

Utilizing British Foreign Office files, the author argues that Curzon's efforts `to achieve some measure of strategic security on the basis of traditional concepts of Indian defence', through attempting to establish a permanent British presence in the Caucasus, were `neither surprising nor reprehensible', given the instability of the region and the Bolshevik threat. 2828 Kent, M. Oil and Empire: British Policy and Mesopotamian Oil, 1900±1920. New York: Barnes and Noble, 1976. xiii + 273 pp. This study of oleaginous diplomacy throws some light upon British operations in Persia and Iraq during the civil-war years.

2826 Ewalt, D. `The Fight for Oil', History Today Vol. 31 (1981), pp. 11±15. This useful study of the background of the AngloPersian Agreement of 1919 and of British concerns over the security of oil supplies in the region provides some interesting sidelights on the intervention in Transcaucasia.

2832 Morris, L. P. `British Secret Missions in Turkestan, 1918±1919', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 12 (1977), No. 2, pp. 363±379. Based upon British archival sources and the published memoirs of those involved (notably, 287

2833 . 16 The Allied Intervention Bailey, Blacker, Tod, Malleson, Dunsterville, Ellis, and Knollys) the author makes a convincing argument that, provided with insufficiently clear instructions by their political and military masters, the officers were `expected to defend interests which were ill-defined against dangers grossly over-estimated'.

officer of Dunsterforce, Major H. B. Suttor, of his passage from Baku to Krasnovodsk aboard the S. S. Turkmen ± the ship which transported the `Twentysix Commissars' to their doom. 2836 Pearce, B. The Staroselsky Problem, 1918±20: An Episode in British±Russian Relations in Persia (introd. by A. Granmayeh). London: SOAS/SSEES Occasional Papers No. 14/No. 26, 1994. 107 pp. A fascinating account of the contradictory aspects of British policy toward Colonel Staroselskii, the Russian officer commanding the Persian Cossack Brigade/Division from 1917 to 1920. Illuminating the interplay of British, Persian, Jangali, Bolshevik and anti-Bolshevik concerns, the author finds that while financially supporting Staroselskii, in the absence of any other substantial means of countering Bolshevik influence in the area (particularly with regard to insurrection in Gilan), the British remained suspicious of Russian aims in North Persia. For details of the formation of the Brigade, see Kazemzadeh, F. `The Origin and Early Development of the Persian Cossack Brigade', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 15 (1956), No. 3, pp. 351±363.

2833 Nassibian, A. Britain and the Armenian Question, 1915±1923. London: Croom Helm, 1984. 294 pp. Drawing on British manuscript sources and materials generated by contemporary pro-Armenian groups in Britain, the author of this concise and interesting volume argues that `Britain's sympathy with the Armenian people and her strategic interests were never moulded into a single policy' ± indeed, that the two were in conflict with each other. Approximately two-thirds of the work is concerned with the period after 1917. 2834 Ogden, D. `Britain and Soviet Georgia, 1921± 1922', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 23 (1988), No. 2, pp. 245±258. An expert study of the travails of both official and unofficial British attempts to safeguard commercial interests in Transcaucasia and to bolster Georgian independence from Moscow during the hiatus between the establishment of Soviet power in Tiflis in early 1921 and the formation of the USSR in December 1922. Based largely upon British Foreign Office papers.

2837 Pearce, B. `Dunsterforce and the Defence of Baku, August±September 1918', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 10 (1997), No. 1, pp. 55±71. Partly in response to the criticisms of Dunsterville to be found in A. H. Arslanian's `reappraisal' of the events [2823], and utilizing the regimental histories of the British forces involved in Dunsterforce, the author argues that Baku fell to the Turks in August 1918 because of the failure of the local Armenian authorities of the city to `mobilize, motivate and militarise the local manpower', their antagonization of local Azerbaijanis, and the uncooperative attitude of both local Bolsheviks and the Red Army contingent of G. K. Petrov.

2835 Pearce, B. `The 26 Commissars', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik Nos 6±7 (1981), pp. 54±66; Pearce, B. `On the Fate of the 26 Commissars', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik Nos 6±7 (1981), pp. 83±95. Utilizing British archival materials (some of them reproduced in an unpaginated appendix to this volume of Sbornik as `Documents from the India Office Archives Relating to the Case of the 26 Commissars') and the memoirs of those involved in or close to the events, the author of this finely argued piece demonstrates the falsehood of Soviet claims that the British were responsible for the execution of the Baku Bolshevik leadership in the summer of 1918. See also the author's comments on some Soviet histories and historians of the affair: Pearce, B. `More About the 26 Commissars', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 9 (1983), pp. 83±85; and Pearce, B. `A Falsifier of History', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 1 (1988), No. 1, pp. 20±23.

An interesting survey of an `outfield of the Great Game in Asia', detailing Curzon and the British Foreign Office's attempts (opposed by the War Office and Lloyd George) to maintain a British military presence in Transcaucasia in the aftermath of the war, for fear that a withdrawal would promote instability throughout all the Middle East. The author notes how the British protectorate over Batum complicated London's relations with both Georgia and Denikin. 2839 Rothwell, V. H. `Mesopotamia in British War Aims', Historical Journal Vol. 13 (1970) No. 2, pp. 273±294. 288

British Intervention in the Baltic . 2847 The author contends that a combination of concern for the defence of the Empire and the Admiralty's driven interest in supplies of oil were in the front rank of reasons why the British wished to dominate Mesopotamia.

2844 Stanwood, F. War, Revolution and British Imperialism in Central Asia. London: Ithaca Press, 1983. 256 pp. A poorly produced but carefully researched study of the impact of the flowering of Central Asian nationalisms and the collapse of Russia and the Bolshevik revolution upon British policy toward Central Asia (especially Persia). Focusing upon the years 1917 to 1918, and upon the determinants of British military intervention in the region, the author notes `the tendency for British anti-nationalism to assume the guise of anti-communism'. See also Stanwood, F. `Revolution and the ``Old Reactionary Policy'': Britain in Persia, 1917', Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History Vol. 6 (1978), No. 2, pp. 144±165.

2840 Sabahi, H. British Policy in Persia, 1918±1925. London: Frank Cass, 1990. 269 pp. A good scholarly account, based upon British archival sources and a range of published materials, of British attempts to maintain Persia as a buffer state in the cause of the defence of India. The volume includes lengthy reflections on the related issue of intervention in Russia. 2841 Sareen, T. R. British Intervention in Central Asia and Trans-Caucasia. New Delhi: Anmol Publications, 1989. xi + 226 pp. This brief anti-British survey uses materials from the state archives of Britain and India to argue that the missions of Dunsterville and Malleson represented `the last desperate attempt of the die-hard imperialists to extend the frontiers of British influence in Central Asia'. The volume, more than a quarter of which is taken up by appendices containing fifteen hitherto unpublished documents, contains some interesting analysis of the contrasting attitudes of the Government of India and the British government toward the intervention.

2845 Sykes, P. `The British Flag on the Caspian: A Side-Show of the Great War', Foreign Affairs Vol. 2 (1923±1924), No. 2, pp. 282±294. A brief narrative account of the work of Commodore David Noris in assisting Dunsterforce in Transcaucasia. 2846 ZuÈrrer, W. `Die britische Intervention in Transkaspien 1918/1919', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 23 (1975), pp. 344±380. An exceptionally detailed chronicle, based upon British archival materials, arguing that `the British intervention in Russian Central Asia was a product of the war against Germany and Turkey' and that the operations were designed as a `preventative measure' to forestall the spread of German influence in the region.

2842 Schwarz, B. `Divided Attention: Britain's Perception of a German Threat to her Eastern Position in 1918', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 28 (1993), No. 1, pp. 103±122. Based largely upon British government papers, this article demonstrates how the Treaty of BrestLitovsk gave rise to great concern in Whitehall for Britain's position in India and concludes that this played a major role in convincing the government to crush Germany in the west.

BRITISH INTERVENTION IN THE BALTIC Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 2847 Agar, Captain A. Baltic Episode: A Classic of Secret Service in Russian Waters. London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1963. 255 pp. This enjoyable memoir includes details of the author's role in British intelligence operations in the Gulf of Finland (including his contacts with Sir Paul Dukes, in association with whom the work was written) and of the British coastal motor boat (CMB) attack on Kronstadt of August 1919, which he led. See also Agar, Captain A. W. S. `Naval Operations in the Baltic', Journal of the Royal United Services Institute Vol. 73 (1928), No. 492, pp. 659±682.

London: Methuen, 1973. ix + 282 pp. Unfortunately, only the last few pages of this study of the long-serving British representative in Sinkiang are devoted to the years 1917 and 1918, although the volume does throw considerable light upon general British concerns in the region.

Studies 2853 Anderson, E. `British Policy Toward the Baltic States, 1918±1920', Journal of Central European Affairs Vol. 19 (1959) No. 3, pp. 276±289. A concise, extremely detailed, chronological account of the `zigzagging, meandering and wavering' of British policy in the Baltic, which is explained as being a consequence of disagreements among the Allies, between British military men and diplomats and between the diplomats themselves with regard to the future of the riverine states. The article includes wide-ranging reference to memoir literature and contemporary publications.

London: Arthur Baker, 1954. 260 pp. Gough was Chief of the post-war British (later Allied) Military Mission in Finland and the Baltic States. This memoir contains one chapter of mainly personal and anecdotal reminiscences of the mission. 2849 Grant Watson, H. A. An Account of a Mission to the Baltic States in the Year 1919, with a Record of Subsequent Events. London: Waverly Press, n.d. [1957]. 68 pp. This slim volume provides some tantalizing details of the visit by the author (Second Secretary at the British Legation at Copenhagen) to Latvia and Lithuania in the spring of 1919 (initially independently and latterly as a member of Tallents's political and commercial mission), during which time he was in contact with those countries' emergent governments. This is, however, a far from complete or candid `account'. In fact, most of the book consists of an unremarkable (albeit, with one or two exceptions, accurate), description of the winning of independence by the Baltic States in the face of Bolshevik and German incursions. The work was republished under a new title in 1965; see Grant Watson, H. A. The Latvian Republic: The Struggle for Freedom. London: Allen & Unwin, 1965. 102 pp. On the author see also Page, S.

A laudatory account of British naval operations in the Baltic from late 1918 to 1920, including coverage of the attack on Kronstadt of August 1919. The author claims that such actions had a significant and very positive impact upon the regard in which Britain was held by the new Baltic States.

Baltic Assignment: British Submariners in Russia, 1914±1919. London: Leo Cooper, 1985. xii + 244 pp. This military history provides detailed coverage of British anti-German naval operations in the Baltic from 1914 to 1918 and includes much on the role of Captain Francis Cromie, murdered by Red Guard raiders of the British embassy in 1918. However, its treatment of Allied intervention in the region of 1918 to 1919 is disappointingly perfunctory, being confined to one chapter of less than ten pages.

A consideration of `how the British government and British commercial interests responded to the changed circumstances in the Baltic area, and why the dominant trading position enjoyed by Britain in the pre-1914 period was so quickly eroded'. Kirby's argument is that, having concluded that the use of the Baltic republics as transit points for trade with Soviet Russia was untenable, and recognizing that an increase in German influence was inevitable, the British simply lost interest in the region.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 2866 Bell, J. M. Sidelights on the Siberian Campaign. Toronto: Ryerson Press, 1922. 298 pp. An interesting, but not entirely reliable, account of the author's service with the interventionist forces at Vladivostok. 2867 Dickinson, C. C. `With Coastal Motor Boats in North Russia, 1919', Canadian Defence Quarterly Vol. 6 (1929), pp. 479±504.

A useful summary of the Canadian role, based upon documents in the Public Archives in Ottawa, which quite properly sets Prime Minister Borden's activities in the context of Canada's struggle for control of her own foreign policy in the aftermath of the First World War. 2877 Strakhovsky, L. I. `The Canadian Artillery Brigade in North Russia, 1918±1919', Canadian Historical Review Vol. 39 (1958), No. 2, pp. 125±146.

The French Role . 2892 An account of the fact-finding mission of the Australian destroyer HMAS Swan and the French destroyer Bisson to Kerch and Mariupol and of their commanders' tour of the Don Cossack territory and visit to Ekaterinodar. The article is chiefly of note for its detailing of the manner in which Ataman Krasnov attempted to utilize his guests' presence to gain an advantage in his ongoing contest with Denikin and the Allies regarding the unity of command of antiBolshevik forces in South Russia.

Reproduced herein is a secret report to Clemenceau by General Niessel (evidently written shortly after the October Revolution), in which the general briefly characterizes Lenin, Trotsky and other leading Bolsheviks, dwelling upon their contacts with the German government through FuÈrstenberg-Ganetski and Kozlovskii. Bradley notes that this helped form the basis of Anglo-French attitudes to the Soviet government in the run-up to intervention.

THE FRENCH ROLE

293

2893 . 16 The Allied Intervention A journalistic, episodic, and impressionistic account by a member of the French Military Mission to Siberia, which is generally anti-Kolchak, antiBritish and pro-Czech.

The memoirs of a French colonel who was attached to Dunsterville's rear headquarters in Persia. 2898 QueÂnet, C. `L'ArrieÁre sibeÂrien', Le monde slave (1926) Vol. 3, No. 8, pp. 161±182; No. 9, pp. 321± 350; Vol. 4, No. 10, pp. 12±39. This colourful and often amusing journal (of 1 December 1918 to 12 June 1919) of a member of the French Military Mission provides a wealth of information and comment upon the strained relations between the Allied representatives in Siberia and the breakdown of economic and social conditions in Kolchak's rear (particularly with regard to the running of the Trans-Siberian Railway and conditions at Vladivostok and Novo-Nikolaevsk).

2893 Legras, J. `L'agonie de la SibeÂrie (1918± 1920)', Le monde slave (1928) Vol. 1, No. 2, pp. 161±195; (1931) Vol. 1, No. 1, pp. 38±68; Vol. 4, No. 10, pp. 26±62; (1932) Vol. 3, No. 9, pp. 374±399; (1934) Vol. 3, No. 9, pp. 400±421; Vol. 4, No. 10, pp. 20±37. This colourful and very detailed (if rather tendentious) account of the author's service with the French Military Mission to Siberia includes observations upon the Kolchak coup and upon the admiral's relations with Ataman Semenov, as well as upon general conditions in Siberia and the relations between the interventionist forces.

2899 Ribot, A. Letters to a Friend: Recollections of My Political Life (transl. by H. Wilson). London: Hutchinson & Co., 1926. 318 pp. The memoirs of the French premier of 1917 include important details on French policy in Russia and with regard to the Stockholm Conference. See also Ribot, A. Journal d'Alexandre Ribot et Correspondances ineÂditeÂes, 1914±1922. Paris: Librairie Plon, 1936. ii + 309 pp.

2894 Marty, A. P. La ReÂvolte de la Mer Noire, 1918±1919 (pref. by R. Jean), 2 vols. Paris: EÂditions sociales, 1949. 187 + 419 pp. A detailed record of the mutinies in the French fleet and army operating on the Black Sea and in South Russia by one of their leaders (later courtmartialled for his involvement and subsequently elected as a Communist deputy to the National Assembly). The volumes are valuable as a portrait of left-wing opposition to the intervention, but are greatly distorted by the author's unquenchable egotism and self-serving motives.

2900 Rouquerol, GeÂneÂral J. La Guerre des Rouges et des Blancs: l'aventure de l'Amiral Koltchak. Paris: Payot, 1929. 183 pp. An anti-British account of the intervention and civil war by a member of the French Military Mission to Siberia. The work covers much the same ground as Janin's memoirs [2891], but in less detail.

2895 du Parquet, Colonel E. Der Drang nach Osten. L'aventure allemande en Lettonie (pref. by General N. Niessel). Paris: Charles Lavauzelle, 1926. 346 pp. The memoirs and reports of the Chief of the French Military Mission in Latvia from 1919 to 1920 cast light upon White, Bolshevik and German operations in the Baltic arena and the increasing involvement of the Allies. See also Champonnois, S. `Colonel Emmanuel du Parquet's Mission in Latvia, 1919±1920', Journal of Baltic Studies Vol. 23 (1992), No. 4, pp. 325±340, which, on the basis of Parquet's original reports, fills in the gaps in Parquet's selfcensored account.

2901 Xydias, J. L'Intervention francËaise en Russie, 1918±1919. Souvenirs d'un teÂmoin. Paris: EÂditions de France, 1927. 381 pp. A biased, if factually well-informed, critical and useful personal account of French policies and actions during the intervention around Odessa by a former resident of the city, a French journalist. As usual with French accounts, there is a strong antiBritish bias, but this is a serious work, especially valuable for the insight it provides into the problems faced by the French commanders and their relations with the forces of Denikin, and for its treatment of the activities of Henno and of the Jassy Conference.

2896 Peltier, M. `Campagne en Mer Baltique. Souvenirs', La Revue maritime No. 225 (October 1965), pp. 1122±1137. The author's personal impressions of conditions in Baltic ports and of shipboard life during his service with the Division navale de la Baltique from June 1921 to late 1922.

An account of French intervention in South Russia and Ukraine intended to reveal the mistruths to be found in a publication by the Soviet historian M.A. Gukovskii (in Nos 6, 7 and 8 of Proletarskaia revoliutsiia, 1926).

2908 Carley, M. `Anti-Bolshevism in French Foreign Policy: The Crisis in Poland in 1920', International History Review Vol. 2 (1980), No. 3, pp. 410± 431. Following on from his earlier article on the subject [2907], the author traces French policy towards Poland from May to August 1920, arguing that anti-Bolsheviks in the French political establishment (such as Maurice PaleÂologue) did everything they could to help Poland in its war with Soviet Russia `short of sending troops, but not short of a serious rift with Britain'. In particular Carley draws attention to the French recognition of Wrangel and their part in the proposal of a joint White±Polish offensive against the Bolsheviks.

2909 Carley, M. J. Revolution and Intervention: The French Government and the Russian Civil War, 1917± 1919. Toronto: McGill-Queen's University Press, 1983. xiii + 265 pp. A succinct and convincing study, if somewhat narrowly based on the records of the French government, arguing that the French intervention was a `premeditated attempt to overthrow a menacing revolutionary government', and presenting particularly original material relating to the rivalry between the French general staff and the foreign ministry. The work is much stronger on the policymaking of the French government than it is on the implementation of it, on the ground, in Russia. See also Carley, M. J. `Episodes from the Early Cold War: Franco-Soviet Relations, 1917±1927', Europe± Asia Studies Vol. 52 (2000), No. 7, pp. 1275±1305.

French Foreign Office archives are used herein to demonstrate how the anti-Bolshevik, pro-interventionist line of the Quai d'Orsay triumphed over the policy of the French general staff, which, influenced by purely military considerations, favoured a rapprochement with the Soviet government in the spring of 1918.

A very detailed and interesting study of how, during and after the Russian civil war, the French foreign office attempted (unsuccessfully) to use a private financial institution as a means to combat the Bolsheviks and to promote French political and economic interests in North China, and of how, conversely, in subsequent years, the Banque RussoAsiatique came to be regarded (both in Moscow and in Paris) as a convenient means of tying French and Soviet interests together.

Utilizing materials recently made available in French national archives, the author re-examines the consensus among Western historians that the Allies, in particular the French, bore no responsibility for inspiring the Polish attack on Soviet Russia of April 1919. He concludes that, in fact, the Polish offensive `represented the last great effort of the interventionist campaign and the last important French commitment to the destruction of Bolshevism'.

2911 Delmas, J. `LeÂgionnaire et diplomate: Le capitaine Zinovi Peshkoff', Revue historique de l'ArmeÂe Vol. 24 (1968), pp. 149±153. A brief recounting of Gorky's son's propaganda mission to Russia of May to October 1917, his liaison mission to Ataman Semenov during the summer of 295

The article is based upon French government papers and the unpublished papers of General Berthelot and General Niessel.

Turku: Turun Yliopisto, 1984. 135 pp. This two-volume study, the best examination of French policy in Eastern Europe, being based upon recently opened archives in Paris as well as on archives in a dozen other countries, concludes that policy remained primarily one of constructing a barrier against Germany rather than a cordon around Bolshevik Russia, although the latter conception did gain significant ground (for a period) in 1918.

2913 Facon, P. `Les mutineries dans le corps expeÂditionnaire francËais en Russie septentrionale', Revue d'histoire moderne et contemporaine Vol. 24 (1977), pp. 455±474. A rare and detailed account of the French involvement in North Russia, based largely upon the archives of Service historique de l'ArmeÂe de Terre. Examining the causes of instances of disorder and mutiny among the French soldiers during November of 1918 and February to March of 1919, the author assesses the contributions of Bolshevik propaganda and poor living conditions and makes some comparisons with similar events in South Russia. 2914 Hagen, M. `Frankreichs Politik in der ``baltischen Frage'' 1919', Zeitschrift fuÈr Ostforschung Vol. 4 (1984), pp. 578±591. In this article the author seeks to demonstrate the confusions of French policy toward the emerging Baltic States and the degree to which French underestimation of the Baltic peoples' striving towards independence led Paris to exclude them from its `East European Alliance Policy' and to acknowledge their independence only after the differences between Estonia and Latvia and Moscow were settled against the will of France.

La Roche-sur Yon: privately published, 1921. 270 pp. A still useful scholarly account of French policy toward Russia by an erstwhile member of the French Institute in Petrograd, strongly critical of the Allied intervention in general and of the Russian Bureau of the Quai d'Orsay in particular. The volume includes a very usefully annotated bibliography of contemporary French sources. 2918 Masson, P. La Marine francËaise et la Mer Noire, 1918±1919. Paris: Publications de la Sorbonne, 1982. xi + 669 pp. In this authoritative and solidly documented work, a key source on the intervention, the author begins with an analysis of the French decision to intervene in South Russia before moving on to deal with the naval mutinies at Sebastopol and in metropolitan France. Masson is sternly critical of French political leaders for dispatching a military mission without providing the resources necessary to sustain it, while concluding that political tracts received from France had more

The author provides an analysis of the personalities and pressure groups involved in the making of French policy towards Bolshevik and anti-Bolshevik Russia, giving emphasis to economic considerations but nevertheless arguing that, in 1917 to 1918, the 296

2923 Wandycz, P. S. France and Her Eastern Allies, 1919±1925. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1962. ix + 454 pp. This volume is largely a study of Franco±Polish± Czechoslovakian relations and the origins of the Little Entente, but throws some light upon the history of the Czechoslovak Legion, the issue of the Soviet±Polish frontier and French attitudes toward it and French policies during the Soviet±Polish War.

Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1988. pp. 335±356. Utilizing materials from the French military archives, the author of this useful article investigates the aims of the intervention force, the means provided to achieve those aims, the attitude of officers and soldiers to the intervention, the conditions faced by the French forces in South Russia, the relations of the force with the Volunteer Army, and the complications created by the force's intervention for French relations with Britain, Greece, Poland and Roumania.

Historiography 2926 Abrams, A. `United States Intervention Abroad: The First Quarter Century', American Historical Review Vol. 79 (1974), No. 1, pp. 72±102. A lengthy review article on works dealing with American foreign interventions in the first decades of the twentieth century ± including Silverlight's Victor's Dilemma [2656] ± which, notes the author, present clear evidence of America's disregard for `human decencies and liberal principles' in its conduct of foreign policy.

To illustrate low standards in the treatment of historical evidence by Soviet historians of the 1950s, the author examines eight statements (taken from S. F. Naida, O nekotorykh voprosakh grazhdanskoi voiny v SSSR. Moscow: Voen. izd.-vo, 1958. 241 pp.), all of them relating to the allegedly perfidious activities and intentions of `American imperialists' in the civil war. Kennan finds them all to be at considerable variance with the published and unpublished historical record.

Huebsch, 1919. 151 pp. A bitter account to Congress of the author's mission to Moscow of 1919, during which, as the representative of President Woodrow Wilson, he met Lenin and other Soviet leaders. The work is reproachful of Western governments, especially that of the United States, for their anti-Soviet attitudes and their failure to respond to the author's attempts at mediation between the interventionist powers and the Bolsheviks. Included are the like-minded testimonies of Captain W. W. Pettit and the journalist

L. `Bolsheviks, Polar Bears, and Military Law: The Experiences of Army Lawyers in North Russia and Siberia in World War I', Prologue: Quarterly of the National Archives Vol. 30 (1998), No. 3, pp. 181±191. A discussion of the work done by the three army lawyers (judge advocates) who served with the US interventionist forces ± Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Thurston in Murmansk and Major Albert J. Galen and his later replacement, Major George R. McLean, in Vladivostok ± much of it concerned with minor matters of indiscipline among the American troops.

2947 Foglesong, D. S. America's Secret War against Bolshevism: United States Intervention in the Russian Civil War, 1917±1920. Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1995. 386 pp. A shrewd, fascinating, comprehensive and important addition to the historiography of the civil war which suggests that Wilson's policy, influenced by Ambassador Bakhmet'ev and infused with a distaste for the economic policies and socialist ideology of the SRs (as well as evincing elements of racism, nativism, anti-Semitism and puritanism) was far more prointerventionist and far more pro-White than earlier accounts have had it. The author sheds particular light upon American covert and clandestine operations against the Bolshevik government, and the elements of subterfuge (both at home and abroad) which were part and parcel of Wilson's policy.

2943 Calhoun, F. S. Power and Principle: Armed Intervention in Wilsonian Foreign Policy. Kent, OH: Kent State University Press, 1986. xi + 333 pp. Interpreting Wilsonian foreign policy as `the search for principled applications of power in the relations between nations', the author examines every instance of US intervention abroad, including those in Siberia and North Russia, during the president's terms of office. See also Calhoun, F. S. Uses of Force and Wilsonian Foreign Policy. Kent, OH: Kent State University Press, 1993. 172 pp.

Woodrow Wilson and the Rebirth of Poland, 1914±1920: A Study in the Influence on American Policy of Minority Groups of Foreign Origin. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1953. xi + 166 pp. An uneven, tendentious, often erroneous and often only partially documented account of the influence upon Wilson of Polish eÂmigreÂs and Polish visitors to the United States (notably Paderewski). The author's thesis is that Wilson was an `enthusiastic pro-Pole' influenced by his `predilections and weaknesses' and one who `continued out of pride to champion the Polish cause to the bitter end'. For critiques of this volume see Kusielewicz [4830]; and Gasiorowski, Z. J. `A Note on Louis L. Gerson's ``Woodrow Wilson and the Rebirth of Poland'' ', Polish Review Vol. 2 (1957), No. 4, pp. 89±94.

An examination of the `surprising and far-reaching' consequences of the American government relying ± for information on developments in Russia, in the wake of the Bolshevik revolution ± upon reports from agents of the Committee on Public Information, the American Red Cross and the YMCA. According to the author, `this haphazard development bred much misunderstanding and confusion'. Particular attention is paid to the roles of Edgar Sisson, Arthur Bullard, William Boyce Thompson and Raymond Robins. 2946 Fike, C. E. `The United States and Russian 300

The American Role (General) . 2957 2951 Geyer, D. `Wilson und Lenin. Ideologie und Friedenssicherung in Osteuropa 1917±1919', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 3 (1955), pp. 430± 441. A thoughtful essay on the clash of the world-views of Lenin and Wilson, assessing the competing appeal of the Soviet Republic and the League of Nations to the peoples of Eastern Europe in the aftermath of the world war.

The first of these masterfully written, detailed and scrupulously researched volumes describes the complexities of the American response to the Russian revolution in the period October 1917 to March 1918; the second relates the tortuous negotiations and considerations which culminated in Wilson's decision to send troops to Russia in July 1918. Writing at the one of peaks of the cold war, during a period when Soviet historians were denouncing the USA as the chief instigator of all `anti-Soviet conspiracies', Kennan sought to place the intervention in the context of the First World War. He did so with some success, but oddly failed to address the issue of the influence of increased Japanese activities on the Asian mainland upon Wilson's decision to intervene. Unfortunately, the projected third volume of the work was never completed. See also Kennan, G. F. `American Troops in Russia: The True Record', Atlantic Monthly Vol. 203 (1959), pp. 36±42.

2952 Goldhurst, R. The Midnight War: The American Intervention in Russia, 1918±1920. New York: McGraw-Hill, 1978. xvi + 288 pp. In analysing three distinct aspects of the intervention (the American decision-making process, the logistics of the military intervention, and the fate of the Czechoslovak Legion), the author adds little to earlier accounts while misusing a number of Russian terms. The work is most useful for its minutely detailed chronological coverage of military actions of the interventionist forces, especially those of the Czechoslovaks. See also Goldhurst, R. `Steadying Efforts: The War at Archangel, 1918±1919', Wisconsin Magazine of History Vol. 62 (1979), No. 3, pp. 217±244. 2953 Graham, M. W. `Russian±American Relations, 1917±1933: An Interpretation', American Political Science Review Vol. 28 (1934), No. 3, pp. 387±409. Writing in the immediate aftermath of the American recognition of Soviet Russia, the author of this dated but nevertheless interesting piece examines the `highly contentious and lucid interval' of non-recognition from 1917 to 1933, concentrating in particular upon the revolutionary period and taking pains to explain the historical background of the attitudes towards each other of the USA and Russia in the preceding hundred years.

2956 Killen, L. `The Search for a Democratic Russia: Bakhmetev and the United States', Diplomatic History Vol. 2 (1978), pp. 237±356. A sympathetic account of the activities from October 1917 to April 1920 of the Provisional Government's ambassador to the United States, concentrating upon his attempts to influence American foreign-policy formation, to limit the hearing Lenin's government received in Washington, and to encourage American support of the Whites (especially Kolchak). For an obituary of the ambassador, see [Anon.] `Boris A. Bakhmeteff, 1880±1951', Russian Review Vol. 10 (1951), No. 4, pp. 311±312.

2954 Grayson, B. L. Russian±American Relations in World War I. New York: Frederick Ungar, 1979. v + 151 pp. Based largely on the diplomatic memoirs of George Maye and David Francis, this is a brief and rather unsatisfactory account of the decline in relations between the USA and Russia on the eve of the First World War and of the unsuccessful efforts of the ambassadors to improve them prior to the February Revolution.

2957 Killen, L. `Self-Determination vs. Territorial Integrity: Conflict within the American Delegation at Paris over Wilsonian Policy Toward the Russian Borderlands', Nationality Papers Vol. 10 (1982), No. 1, pp. 65±78. While arguing that Wilson was firmly committed to protecting Russian territorial integrity, the author highlights the disagreements among his advisors on this matter.

Lexington, KY: The University Press of Kentucky, 1984. xii + 202 pp. A concise but detailed chronological study of the subsidiary of the War Trade Board, intended by the president to `help the Russians help themselves', which functioned as an important agency for the realization of Wilson's policy in Siberia and North Russia after its foundation in October 1918.

Foreign Policies. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1957. xvi + 165 pp. 2963 Pidhainy, O. S., Scales, L. A. and Pidhainy, A. S. `Silver and Billions: American Finances and the Bolshevik Revolution', New Review: A Journal of East European History Vol. 14 (1974), pp. 1±47. Utilizing files from the archives of the Department of State (some of which are reproduced at the end of the article), the authors argue that `through the financial involvement of the American government, the American government in fact intervened against the Bolshevik authorities by January 2, 1918'. In particular, the authors detail Washington's payments to anti-Bolshevik Russian groups and the transfer of silver to the British to be used for the upkeep of Russian non-Bolshevik troops.

A. ` ``Spare No Expense'': The Department of State and the Search for Information about Bolshevik Russia, November 1917±September 1918', Intelligence and National Security Vol. 4 (1989), No. 2, pp. 316±334. A straightforward description of the `unprecedented effort' of the State Department's official and unofficial agents to provide policy-makers with information regarding developments in Bolshevik and anti-Bolshevik Russia, concentrating upon the efforts of consuls Maddin Summers and DeWitt C. Poole and arguing that information-gathering was never directed, per se, against the Bolsheviks.

2964 Pierre, A. `Les EÂtats-Unis et le gouvernement des Soviets (1917±1918)', Le monde slave (1933), Vol. 4, No. 11, pp. 298±313. A brief analysis of the United States government's attitude to the Bolsheviks from October 1917 to the summer of 1918, arguing that during the genesis of the intervention Wilson always sought to maintain his freedom of action and tended to disassociate himself from the more belligerent actions of the other Allies, especially the French.

2960 Levin, N. G. Woodrow Wilson and World Politics: America's Response to War and Revolution. New York: Oxford University Press, 1968. xii + 340 pp. A volume which is particularly noteworthy for exploring the thinking behind Wilsonian ideology as it related to economics. The contention of the author of this important work is that American intervention was largely motivated by President Wilson's desire to create in Russia a liberal-capitalist bulwark against both German militarism and revolutionary Bolshevism.

2965 Radosh, R. `John Spargo and Wilson's Russian Policy, 1920', Journal of American History Vol. 52 (1965±1966), pp. 548±565. The author utilizes the private papers of the renegade leader of the American Socialist Party to trace his pro-war activities from 1917 and to demonstrate how Wilson, by 1920, frequently sought his advice ± particularly with regard to American economic interests in Russia and policy relating to the Soviet±Polish War. 2966 Schild, G. M. Between Ideology and Realpolitik: Woodrow Wilson and the Russian Revolution, 1917±1921. London: Greenwood Press, 1995. 192 pp. The author argues, mainly on the basis of published primary sources, that Wilson's reaction to the Bolshevik revolution was not exclusively determined by ideology but by a mixture of antiBolshevism and pragmatic concerns for alliance cohesion.

2961 Libbey, J. K. `The American±Russian Chamber of Commerce', Diplomatic History Vol. 9 (1985), pp. 233±248. Includes some brief information on attempts by this anti-Soviet lobbying group of businessmen to influence Wilson's foreign policy during the civil-war years. 2962 Link, A. Woodrow Wilson: Revolution, War and Peace. Arlington Heights, IL: Harlan Davidson Press, 1979. viii + 138 pp. A sturdy defence of Wilson and his policies, which is markedly less critical of its subject than the author's earlier study, on which it was partly based: Link, A.

and includes a useful chapter assessing the genesis of the US intervention in Russia. 2974 Tuve, J. E. `Changing Directions in Russian± American Relations, 1912±1917', Slavic Review Vol. 31 (1972), No. 1, pp. 52±70. This account of the growth of American commercial interests in Russia after the outbreak of the First World War provides interesting background material on the origins of the American intervention.

2968 Shapiro, Captain S. `Allied Intervention in Russia, 1918±1919', United States Naval Institute Proceedings Vol. 99 (1973), pp. 52±61. A critique of the failings of American diplomacy vis-aÁ-vis the Bolsheviks in 1918, and of the shortcomings of the Soviet historiography of the intervention, remarkable only for its criticisms of the diplomacy of ambassador Francis. The article features some interesting photographs.

2975 Unterberger, B. M. `Woodrow Wilson and the Russian Revolution', in A. Link (ed.) Woodrow Wilson and a Revolutionary World, 1913±1921. Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1982, pp. 49±104. The author of this lengthy chapter argues that Wilson championed both the principle of selfdetermination and Russian territorial integrity, while being sympathetic to the Bolsheviks and opposing intervention in Russia: `His policies rested firmly upon a body of principles and assumptions drawn from the beliefs and ethical values of the Christian tradition and from his deep commitment to democracy'. See also Unterberger, B. M. `Woodrow Wilson and the Bolsheviks: The ``Acid Test'' of Soviet± American Relations', Diplomatic History Vol. 11 (1987), No. 2, pp. 71±90.

Aftermath of War: Bainbridge Colby and Wilsonian Diplomacy, 1920±1921. Philadelphia: American Philosophical Society, 1970. vii + 173 pp. This well-written volume includes detailed and interesting coverage of American policy during the Soviet±Polish War. 2971 Sutton, A. C. Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution. New Rochelle, NY: Arlington House, 1974. 228 pp. This intriguing study, which utilizes State Department records, personal archives and other materials to explore American financial interests and influences in Russia during the revolutionary period, notes (among other things) that the US Red Cross mission to Russia included more financiers on its staff than medical personnel.

2976 Walworth, A. America's Moment: 1918, American Diplomacy at the End of World War I. New York: W. W. Norton, 1977. vii + 309 pp. Walworth, A. Wilson and His Peacemakers: American Diplomacy at the Paris Peace Conference, 1919. New York: W. W. Norton, 1986. xiii + 618 pp. A clear narrative account of Wilsonian diplomacy, covering in minute detail the course of events from October 1918 to June 1919, and throwing much light upon discussions of the Russian question at Paris. The two volumes are based upon a mass of archival materials, private papers and secondary works.

2972 Trani, E. P. `Woodrow Wilson and the Decision to Intervene in Russia: A Reconsideration', Journal of Modern History Vol. 48 (1976), No. 3, pp. 440±461. The author of this seminal article ascribes President Wilson's acceptance of a limited intervention to his yielding ± on what, for him, was an issue of secondary importance ± in the face of a concerted campaign in favour of it by British and French diplomats in Washington and by the Supreme War Council in Paris.

2977 Williams, W. A. `American Intervention in Russia, 1917±1920', Studies on the Left Vol. 3 (1963), pp. 24±48; Vol. 4 (1964), pp. 39±57. A study of American policy based upon materials from the National Archives and the writings of the principal characters involved in shaping and implementing that policy, this article serves as an excellent example of the New Left contention that American involvement in the intervention was motivated by anti-Bolshevik ideological considerations. In fact, the author argues, `Intervention as a consciously antiBolshevik operation was decided upon by American leaders within five weeks of the day Lenin and

2982 Startt, J. D. `American Film Propaganda in Revolutionary Russia', Prologue Vol. 30 (1998), No. 3, pp. 167±179. In this unusual piece the author utilizes Committee of Public Information materials from the National Archives to detail US film propaganda in Russia and, especially, Siberia from the summer of 1917 to March 1919, with special emphasis on the role of Arthur Bullard. He also offers some consideration of the films shown and of their propagandistic purposes.

2984 Albertson, R. Fighting Without a War: An Account of Military Intervention in North Russia. New York: Harcourt, Brace & Howe, 1920. 138 pp. The author, a secretary of the YMCA in Murmansk in the period November 1918 to August 1919, is highly critical of the policies and activities (or, rather, lack of them) in North Russia of the British forces, whom he accuses of failure to consult with the other Allies. The work is of more use as an example of liberal American anti-interventionist opinion than as a historical source, although it is not lacking in some interesting first-hand descriptions of events and personalities. The author claims to have been the last American to be evacuated from North Russia.

2981 Mahoney, H. T. `The Saga of Xenophon Dmitrivich Kalamatiano', International Journal of Intelligence and Counter-Intelligence Vol. 8 (1995), No. 2, pp. 179±201. An account of the arrest, imprisonment and release of `the first ``modern'' American spy', based upon State Department files and extensive personal correspondence. The author, a retired senior operations officer of the CIA, brings some interesting professional insights to the `euphemisms and circumlocutions' which mark Kalamatiano's correspondence. Reproduced in full is Kalamatiano's report to his field officer, Assistant US Consul DeWitt Clayton Poole, which he smuggled out of Moscow's Butyrka prison in October 1918.

The author, an American officer who landed in North Russia in September 1919 to serve under General Poole, here presents a rather damning account of the intervention and highlights the intense anti-British feelings exhibited by the American soldiers.

McClurg & Co., 1924. 216 pp. A highly critical (especially of the British) account of the intervention during the period August 1918 to June 1919 by John Cudahy, a member of the 339th US Infantry Regiment. The author attempts to set the intervention into the broader context of the revolution and describes engagements in which American forces participated in great detail. A useful source.

A sympathetic but largely inconsequential account of the diplomatic activities of Felix Cole, who was appointed American consul at Archangel in September 1917 and who subsequently opposed intervention in the region on the grounds that economic aid to North Russia would do far more to maintain Allied influence there than would the use of force.

New York: Scribner's, 1919. 308 pp. The crass, journalistic, often inaccurate and extremely anti-Bolshevik observations of a New York Times reporter who was accredited to the Czechoslovak Legion for the period December 1918 to March 1919. The work contains much material on the action of United States forces and dwells upon the differences between General Graves and other American and Allied representatives in Siberia.

American Intervention in Siberia and the Far East . 3023 3012 Graves, General W. S. America's Siberian Adventure (fwd. by N. D. Baker). New York: Peter Smith, 1931. xxiv + 363 pp. This very important and illuminating memoir, by the commander of the American Expeditionary Force in Siberia, was so strongly critical of the intervention and of the Kolchak government (particularly the roles of atamans Semenov and Kalmykov) that it was published in Russian by the Soviet reÂgime in 1932. Graves argued that while he stuck rigidly to the plans for Allied intervention approved by President Wilson in 1918, the British and (especially) the Japanese deliberately subverted the intervention for their own selfish purposes.

3013 Hayes, H. B. `The Iron(ic) Horse from Nikolsk', Military Review Vol. 42 (1982), pp. 18±28. Chiefly of interest for the description of how the author's grandfather, Harold B. Hayes, chief US officer at Nikolsk-Ussurisk, arranged safe passage to Vladivostok for a Soviet peace delegation in January 1920.

3021 Westall, V. C. `AEF Siberia ± The Forgotten Army: Recollections of General Robert L. Eichelberger', Military Review Vol. 48 (1968), pp. 11±18 Drawing upon the unpublished papers of Eichelberger, who was assigned as a captain to the office of General Graves, the author seeks to deflate the reasons given at the time for American intervention in Siberia. Eichelberger argued for much closer collaboration with the other Allies, including Japan. Further detail on Eichelberger's service in Siberia can be gleaned from Chapter 3 of Chwialkowski, P. In Caesar's Shadow: The Life of General Robert Eichelberger. London: Greenwood Press, 1993. 225 pp.

Smith, 1945. 251 pp. This important personal narrative of the Siberian expedition constitutes the observations of an American soldier equally (and violently) critical of the activities of the Bolsheviks and these of the Japanese. The author argues that the Japanese used the Americans for their own ends and displays an unusual degree of sympathy for the Russian people.

New York: Octagon Books, 1968. 411 pp. A thoroughly researched, if somewhat dull, monograph which usefully places the Siberian intervention within the general context of American foreign policy in East Asia and the Pacific.

3016 Moore, F. F. Siberia Today. New York: Appleton, 1919. 333 pp. A journalistic account of the period September 1918 to February 1919, very much in favour of the intervention, by an American correspondent who accompanied the Expeditionary Force.

Stevens and American Policy in Manchuria and Siberia, 1918±1924', Prologue: Quarterly of the National Archives Vol. 27 (1995), No. 4, pp. 319±333.

A chronicle of the noted American engineer's activities as head of the Russian Railway Service Corps and on the Inter-Allied Railway Board at Harbin, in which capacities he played a key role in the Allied intervention in Siberia.

An examination of why the United States sent the Russian Railway Service Corps to Siberia in late 1917 and an assessment of how successful the corps was in achieving its objectives. The author, who bases the article partly on the unpublished diary of a leading member of the corps, Ole A. Bjonerud, concludes that `the endeavour from beginning to end was destined to failure'. For contemporary reports on the RRSC see Wright, P. `The Work of the Russian Railway Corps', Railway Age Vol. 69 (23 July 1919), pp. 153±156; Wright, P. `Col. G.

New York: n.p., 1974. xii + 201 pp. The first of a planned four-volume treatment of the American Expeditionary Forces in Siberia which, unfortunately, was never completed, this study utilizes the private correspondence and memoirs of the soldiers involved but covers only the background to the first landings at Vladivostok in 1918.

3030a Lasch, C. `American Intervention in Siberia: A Reinterpretation', Political Science Quarterly Vol. 77, No. 2 (1962), pp. 205±223. An argument that American involvement in the intervention was a function of wartime military strategy rather than one of hostility to Bolshevik rule.

3026 Feist, J. M. `Theirs Not to Reason Why: The Case of the Russian Railway Service Corps', Military Affairs Vol. 42 (1978), No. 1, pp. 1±6. Although the Corps' service in Siberia of 1918 to 1920 is briefly discussed, the focus of this article is the railwaymen's subsequent 55-year legal battle with the US government for recognition of the fact that they had enlisted and performed their duties as members of the United States Army and were, consequently, entitled to the associated pensions and other benefits enjoyed by servicemen.

3031 Lowe, K. H. `American Polar Bears Defence of Vladivostok', Military History (October 1997), pp. 84±94.

A. `The Siberian Intervention: Military Support of Foreign Policy', Military Review Vol. 54 (1984), pp. 54±63. Comparing the experience of American intervention in Siberia with that in Korea and Vietnam, the author examines General Graves's conflicts with the US State Department and with other Allied representatives in Siberia.

Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1995. xvi + 494 pp. A rather densely written study of Wilson's resistance to British and French pressure for intervention in Siberia during the summer of 1918 ± a policy which the author judges to have been `the costliest mistake of his presidency', it having `permitted Lenin to decimate the democratic opposition' and establish a reÂgime which was later to challenge `all the values and institutions which the President and the United States stood for'. The work is notable for being based, in part, upon materials relating to the Czechoslovak Legion drawn from the newly opened archives in Prague.

3033 Maddox, R. The Unknown War with Russia: Wilson's Siberian Intervention. San Rafael, CA: Presidio Press, 1977. xii + 156 pp. A well-written book, but one which, in its assertions regarding Wilson's duplicitous and essentially anti-Bolshevik promotion of intervention, adds little to the accounts of Lasch [3030a], Mayer [2652] and 2667], Williams [2977] and Levin [2690].

American Intervention in Siberia, 1918±1920. Philadelphia, PA: n.p., 1946. 98 pp. The author traces the American intervention to long-term trends in American foreign policy in the Far East and places it within the context of events in Europe and the development of United States± Japanese antagonism in the North Pacific.

Heath and Company, 1969. xii + 113 pp. Included in this reader are twenty-one documents drawn from Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States [2935] and extracts from numerous secondary accounts, illustrating conflicting opinions of the American decision to intervene in Russia (and, in particular, in Siberia).

3042 Unterberger, B. M. The United States, Revolutionary Russia, and the Rise of Czechoslovakia. Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 1989. xv + 463 pp. A thorough and scholarly study of how and why Wilson came to support the Czechoslovak movement for independence during the First World War and, in particular, of how and why the United States sought to support the operations of the Czechoslovak Legion in Siberia. However, the author takes no account of revisionist writings on the subject and the book could easily have been written in the 1950s. According to Unterberger, Wilson's purposes were invariably based on high-minded principles and US foreign policy was guided only by disinterested, altruistic motives. The volume is based upon extensive research in American state and private archives, as well as on more limited use of British and French state archives. See also Unterberger, B. M. `The United States and the Czech±Bolshevik Conflict, 1918', in D. B. White (ed.) Proceedings of the Conference on War and Diplomacy. Charleston, SC: The Citadel, 1976. pp. 145±153.

American±Russian Relations in the Far East. New York: Macmillan, 1949. 426 pp. A valuable general survey of the subject from the 1890s to the post-Second World War period which includes several chapters on the Siberian intervention. The author concludes that Wilson's decision to intervene was `right and inevitable', and argues that American policy was determined largely by the necessity of stopping Japanese expansionism and defending Russian sovereignty and territorial integrity. 3040 Unterberger, B.

Presented here, with an introduction and notes by the authors, is a report to the State Department by Lieutenant-Commander Hugo W. Koehler, senior aide to Rear Admiral Newton A. McCully, concerning his landing at Odessa on 10 February 1920 in order to establish the whereabouts of American citizens in the town endangered by the ongoing White evacuation. In this fascinating document Koehler recounts his impressions of the chaotic situation in Odessa and of the comparative discipline of the Red forces, and relates the substance of a long conversation he held with `Uborevich', a Red Army general.

On the basis of an extensive trawl of American archival records, the author illustrates how US diplomats and officers played active roles in the Baltic region during the years 1918 to 1920, and argues that their decisions to support Baltic nationalists and anti-Bolshevik Russians were influenced less by abstract ideals (such as the principle of selfdetermination) than by desires to contain Bolshevism or to overthrow the Soviet government.

A detailed summary of the events of the spring of 1918, based largely on Czech sources, which, in analysing the origins and course of the revolt, lays particular stress upon the inexperience of the Czech leadership, the Legion's morbid fear of the Germans, the adventurism of Czech officers, and the `misleading' optimism of the junior Allied personnel in Russia who supported the anti-Bolshevik action. For a brief response, see the letter by G. Zekulin in Soviet Studies Vol. 15 (1963±1964), No. 3, pp. 371±372.

Czechoslovakia and the Russian Question, Vol. 2: The Bolsheviks and the Czechoslovak Legion: The Origin of Their Armed Conflict, March±May 1918. New Delhi: Abhinav, 1978. pp. xix + 495 pp. A broadly researched but opaquely written account, in two volumes, of the policies and strategies pursued by Masaryk and other Czech leaders toward Russia from the outbreak of war in 1914 to March of 1918, concentrating on the origins of the Czechoslovak Legion under the Imperial and Provisional Governments and on the Legion's first contacts with the Soviet government. The volumes include excellent bibliographies with many references to Czech-language memoir sources.

3117 Bradley, J. F. N. `The Allies and the Czechoslovak Revolt Against the Bolsheviks in 1918', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 43 (1965), No. 2, pp. 275±292. Largely on the basis of French archival sources, the author claims that far from being `purchased' by the Allies and inspired to revolt, as Soviet historians claimed, the Legion's rebellion was spontaneous ± a consequence of the delays in transporting it to Vladivostok, incitement by White officers, agitation by Czech communists and the Bolsheviks' reputation as German puppets ± and that it caught the Allies by surprise.

3121 Hentges, P. `T. G. Masaryk et la grande conspiration contre l'Union SovieÂtique', La PenseÂe No. 50 (September±October 1953), pp. 67±73. A violent attack on Masaryk and BenesÏ for their part in the Allied war of intervention against the Bolsheviks, which is based on Czech archival sources. The author links Masaryk with Boris Savinkov and the Iaroslavl uprising as well as, rather implausibly, other terrorist acts (such as the attempt on Lenin's life in the summer of 1918).

3118 Bradley, J. F. N. The Czechoslovak Legion in Russia, 1914±1920. Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1991. 156 pp. This brief narrative adds little to the author's earlier works on the subject and, as was the case with his earlier books, is too badly organized to be of use to the general reader while lacking the scholarly apparatus ± there are no index, notes or bibliography ± and referral to new sources which might make it of interest to the specialist.

New York: Macmillan, 1967. 243 pp. A popular, generally accurate and sympathetic account of the fate of Czechoslovak forces in Russia, from the wartime inception of the druzhina to the collapse of the anti-Bolshevik front in Siberia during the winter of 1919 to 1920. 3123 Kalvoda, J. `The Origins of the Czechoslovak Army, 1914±1918', War and Society in East Central Europe, Vol. 9 (1985), pp. 419±435.

As the title suggests, the author stresses the American assistance to the Legion. See also the chapter by Dupuy and William Baumer, `Intervention in Russia, 1918±1920', in Dupuy, R. E. and Baumer, W.

Beginning with Masaryk's advice to the Allies in 1918 to offer de facto recognition to the Bolshevik government, in the belief that they would soon fall anyway and that negotiations would ease the transition to a new Russia, the author explains how Masaryk arrived at this conclusion, in part, through his unlikely friendship with General Brusilov, who shared his prophecy of a forthcoming `spiritual revolution' in Russia.

Wiesbaden: Breyer, 1970. x + 300 pp. Although certainly more readable than Klante's dense account [3126], this volume, based almost entirely upon published materials and German and Austrian archives, includes only one chapter offering information and insights substantially adding to or differing from Klante's work ± that relating to the fate of the Legionnaires upon their return to Czechoslovakia.

A brief survey of Scandinavian±Soviet economic contacts in the period 1918 to 1922, noting how the Scandinavian countries acted as `channels for contact to the outside world . . . for the Bolsheviks'.

A unique English-language account of the 1st and 2nd Serbian Divisions formed from prisoners of war and deserters to Russia. The Serb units served on the Russian±Roumanian front against Bulgaria in 1916 and were transferred to the Salonika front via Archangel and England in the summer and autumn of 1918.

Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1988. pp. 321±333. An insightful account, based upon numerous rare published and unpublished Greek-language sources, of the `confusion, misery, and sense of futility of this expedition'.

3148 Petricioli, M. `L'occupazione italiana del Caucaso: ``nun ingrato servizio'' da rendere a Londra', Il Politico Vol. 37 (1972), pp. 99±141. A unique and very detailed account of Italian preparations, initially encouraged by Lloyd George, for a military expedition to Transcaucasia in the first half of 1919. The author notes the objections raised by Lord Curzon and others in the British Foreign Office (on account of the `persistent failure' of the Italian colonial record) and by the King of Italy (who feared Bolshevik contamination of Italian soldiers), but concludes that the plan was actually abandoned because the new government of Nitti feared the reaction of the Italian Socialist Party to such an overtly anti-Bolshevik adventure.

Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1982. ix + 635 pp. This interesting (if somewhat rambling and anecdotal) chronicle includes some rare coverage of the Greek intervention in South Russia of 1918 to 1919, and of the sufferings endured by the 50,000strong Greek population of South Russia and the Caucasus in the wake of the Allied withdrawal.

3156 Khvostov, M. and Karachtchouk, A. The Russian Civil War, Vol. 2: The White Armies. London: Osprey, 1998. 48 pp. A slim but heavily illustrated and useful piece of militaria, covering the organization, ranks, weaponry, mateÂriel, uniforms and insignia of White forces on the various fronts of the civil war, as well as those of nationalist armies which fought against the Bolsheviks.

3152 Channon, J. `White Agrarian Policy: A Research Commentary and Documentary Material', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 12 (1986), pp. 108±133. The documents presented herein (relating to the Red response to Wrangel's 1920 Land Law) are in Russian. The introduction utilizes unpublished Soviet dissertations to investigate the intricacies of Kolchak's land legislation and to assess its impact upon the peasantry of the Urals region.

3157 Lange, R. La Bianca Russia. Cesno di storia militare e politica del movimento russo antibolscevico dal 22 ottobre 1917 al 1935. Florence: Bemporad, 1935. 224 pp. A fascist author's study of the Whites which, with regret, finds the movement lacking in the very qualities that fascism prized.

3153 Grey, M. and Bourdier, J. Les ArmeÂes blanches. Paris: Stock, 1968. 283 pp. A nicely illustrated account of the White movement's origins and fate which utilizes some interesting sources. The emphasis of the volume is on events in South Russia ± unsurprisingly, as Marina Grey was the daughter of General Denikin.

3158 Luckett, R. The White Generals. New York: Viking Press, 1971. xviii + 413 pp. An amateurish and often eccentric account, riddled with factual errors, concentrating upon events and personalities in South Russia (although Mannerheim too makes an appearance) but displaying a complete lack of comprehension of the political context of the civil war.

3154 Heretz, L. `The Psychology of the White Movement', in V. N. Brovkin (ed.) The Bolsheviks in Russian Society: The Revolution and the Civil Wars. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 105±121. In this extremely interesting piece the author utilizes published memoirs and other White sources to examine the `perceptions and ways of thinking' which characterized the White officers, identifying the factors which set them apart, as militant opponents of Bolshevism, from their broader cultural milieu. The focus of the chapter is on the officers of the Volunteer Army.

3159 Mcneal, R. H. `The Conference of Jassy ± An Early Fiasco of the Anti-Bolshevik Movement', in J. S. Curtiss (ed.) Essays in Russian History. Leiden: E. J. Brill, 1963. pp. 221±235. A description of the failure of the conference (held at Jassy and Odessa from 16 November to 6 December 1918) aimed at establishing liaison between anti-Bolshevik forces in South Russia and Allied forces in the Balkans. The author primarily ascribes the `fiasco' to political disunity among the delegates and to their hostility to Ukrainian nationalism.

3155 Kenez, P. `The Ideology of the White Movement', Soviet Studies Vol. 32 (1980), No. 1, pp. 58±83. This seminal article concentrates chiefly upon the formative experiences and Weltanschauung of the officers of the Volunteer Army in South Russia, as evinced in their memoirs and official proclamations. The author pays particular attention to White antisemitism.

The author of this inconsequential piece, the stepson of Harold Williams, visited the Don territory and the Kuban over the winter of 1917 to 1918 as a representative of `a secret anti-Soviet organization'. He met generals Alekseev, Kornilov, Denikin and Markov.

New York: Macmillan, 1933. xiv + 469 pp. Now somewhat dated in its approach and marred by a number of factual errors, but this chronological survey of events in the White camps from the autumn of 1917 to the end of 1922 can still justifiably be regarded as ranking among the better secondary accounts of the civil war. The coverage of the counter-revolution in Siberia is particularly comprehensive. The volume includes many very detailed campaign maps and a comprehensive bibliography.

3166 Denikine, General A. I. The White Army (transl. by C. Zvegnitzov). London: Jonathan Cape, 1930. 368 pp. A severely abridged translation of the White leader's five-volume Ocherki russkoi smuty, covering the period from the end of 1917 to the evacuation from Novorossiisk in January 1920. Although hardly unbiased, Denikin's invaluable work, the most complete account by any of the White leaders, provides an insightful analysis of the successes and failings of the anti-Bolshevik forces. The volume includes eighteen maps of the White campaigns in South Russia.

3162 Svidine, N. The Treasure of the White Army (transl. by L. Mayhew). London: Hart-Davis/ Macgibbon, 1975. 188 pp. The author claims to know the location of a fortune of treasure gathered by White officers in South Russia (and taken into emigration in 1920), which he was charged with safeguarding in anticipation of the restoration of the tsar. The treasure, he alleges, was buried in a Bulgarian forest.

A brief account, by the wife of Nicholas de Basily, of Peter Struve's visit to Spa of July 1920, during which he obtained French recognition of the Wrangel government. The article is critical of `the callous attitude of Lloyd George, who completely ignored the presence of the Russian delegation and the appeal they presented to him'.

See also Kaledin, Colonel V. K. Underground Diplomacy: Adventures of a Private Spy. London: Hurst & Blackett, 1938. 334 pp., which recounts his work for the `Allied Bureau (Anti-Bolshevist Section)', alleged to have been directing the armed intervention in Russia from 1918 to 1922.

3178 Roodkowsky, N. R. `Flight from the Bolsheviks', Yale Review Vol. 61 (1972), No. 3, pp. 367±372. Some brief, impressionistic memoirs of the author's evacuation from Novorossiisk (as a schoolboy) with Denikin's forces in March 1920.

London: Williams & Norgate, 1929. 356 pp. These occasionally incoherent, but nevertheless honest and valuable memoirs, covering the period from early 1918 to the evacuation of the Crimea, concentrate upon their author's key role in the year 1920, but also provide a stern critique of Denikin's command of White forces in South Russia. The text includes a number of documents, diary extracts, etc. The volume was reissued under the title Always with Honor: Memoirs of General Wrangel. New York: R.

Glasgow/Melbourne/Auckland: Collins, 1921. xix + 324 pp. This quite well-informed and objective portrait of conditions in South Russia and Transcaucasia, by a British journalist who travelled widely in those regions and became closely acquainted with many leading personalities, is notable for its critical view of

The recommendations of the Blackwood Report are appended.

Footman, `The Don and the Volunteer Army', in D. Footman Civil War in Russia. London: Faber & Faber, 1961. pp. 33±84. This chronological account of the founding and initial operations of the Volunteer Army (covering the period from the flight of Kornilov and others to the Don in late 1917 to the Volunteers' withdrawal from Novocherkassk in June 1918) is based upon a limited range of published sources, but provides an accurate factual introduction to the subject.

3182 Arslanian, A. H. and Nichols, R. L. `Nationalism and the Russian Civil War: The Case of Volunteer Army±Armenian Relations, 1918±1920', Soviet Studies Vol. 31 (1979), No. 4, pp. 559±573. An illuminating examination of how complex were the relations between the Transcaucasian peoples and how difficult was cooperation between them and the anti-Bolshevik Russians, even in a case where self-interest on all sides favoured such action. Based upon materials in British public archives and a number of published works from the Armenian community in exile, the authors question the allegation found in the works of Soviet, Georgian and Azerbaijani writers that there existed a harmonious alliance between Erevan and Denikin.

3186 Grey, M. Mon peÁre le geÂneÂral DeÂnikine. Paris: Librairie AcadeÂmique Perrin, 1984. 378 pp. A nicely illustrated hagiography of the author's father, interspersed with elements of narrative ranging from the unremarkable to the highly dubious. The volume lacks footnotes and other scholarly apparatus. 3187 Kenez, P. `The Relations between the Volunteer Army and Georgia, 1918±1920: A Case Study in Disunity', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 48 (1970), pp. 403±424. An insightful analysis, tracing Alekseev and Denikin's `absurd' and debilitating disputes with Tiflis over such minor issues as the possession of the resort of Sochi to the conflicting claims of inflamed nationalisms on both sides.

3183 Bortnevski, V. G. `White Administration and White Terror: The Denikin Period', Russian Review Vol. 52 (1993), No. 3, pp. 354±367. Based upon evidence gleaned from a number of archival collections (including materials held in Moscow from the former Prague Russian Foreign Historical Archives), the Russian author of this piece finds that White terror became more repressive over time in contravention of the wishes of the military and civilian leadership but also largely as a consequence of the Whites' attempt to establish joint military-civilian, `dictatorship-type regimes'. See also Bortnevski, V. G. `White Intelligence and CounterIntelligence during the Russian Civil War', Carl Beck Papers in Russian and East European Studies No. 1108 (1995), 36 pp.

Civil War in South Russia: Vol. 2, 1918±19 ± The Defeat of the Whites. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1977. xviii + 378 pp. Together these volumes, based upon a wide range of archival materials and published memoirs, constitute the definitive history of the anti-Bolshevik forces in South Russia. In them the author reveals the details of the development of the White government, carefully evaluates the role of the high command and governmental agencies, and analyses the merits and demerits of White policies. Kenez's central thesis is that the Whites failed because `they failed to build those institutions which would have enabled them to administer the territories under their nominal rule'.

Notre Dame, IN: University of Notre Dame Press, 1966. xv + 446 pp. An important prize-winning monograph, focusing upon the international political aspects of the struggle in South Russia and the relations of the Allies with Denikin's forces (although, with regard to the internal politics of the anti-Bolsheviks, the author's discussion of the role of the national minorities is also a particularly strong feature).

3195 Procyk, A. Russian Nationalism and Ukraine: The Nationality Policy of the Volunteer Army during the Civil War. Edmonton: Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies, 1995. xvi + 202 pp. A unique scholarly study of the relations between Volunteer Army and the various Ukrainian national governments of 1918 to 1921, based upon White archives in the United States. The author argues that it was not the conservatism of the White military leaderships which made cooperation with Skoropadskyi, Petliura et al. impossible, but their allegiance to the liberal Russian nationalism of the Kadets. The author surveys also the strained relations between the Volunteer Army and the Don and Kuban Cossacks. See also Prosyk, A. `Russian Liberals and the Nationality Question during the Revolution', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 53 (1997), No. 4, pp. 323±334.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 293±313. Surveying the activities of Denikin's Volunteer Army and its supporters among the Orthodox Church and the Kadet party in the western Ukraine in 1919, the author notes that the White leaders `were obsessed with anti-semitism' and that `this antisemitism, full of paranoid delusions, bordered on the pathological'. 3191 Lazarski, C. `White Propaganda Efforts in the South during the Russian Civil War, 1918±1919 (the Alekseev±Denikin Period)', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 70 (1992), No. 4, pp. 688±707. An original, thoroughly documented account of the activities of Osvag, the White propaganda organization, finding that contrary to the perceptions of the Whites themselves and of most historians, `it was a very effective instrument of information control and manipulation of press organizations'.

3196 Robinson, P. F. ` ``Always with Honour'': The Code of the White Russian Officers', Canadian Slavonic Papers, Vol. 41 (1999), No. 2, pp. 121±142. On the basis of statements, newspaper articles and correspondence by eÂmigreÂ officers from South Russia in the inter-war years, the author argues that `considerations of honour had a decisive influence on the behaviour of the Whites', some positive but mostly negative, `locking them into forms of behaviour which were inappropriate in the circumstances of a modern civil war'.

3192 Lehovich, D. V. White against Red: The Life of General Anton Denikin. New York: W. W. Norton & Co., 1974. 556 pp. Approximately two-thirds of this detailed but rather poorly written biography, based upon Denikin's papers at Columbia University, is concerned with Denikin's role in 1917 and as a White leader in the civil war. The author, who clearly reveres Denikin, was a volunteer in the Armed Forces of South Russia. One chapter, dealing with the failed White advance on Moscow of the summer and autumn of 1919, appeared earlier as Lehovich, D. V. `Denikin's Offensive', Russian Review Vol. 32 (1973), pp. 173±186. 3193 Mahon, E. K. (`Vigilans') `Denikin', National Review No. 75 (1920), pp. 485±492. A largely sympathetic contemporary portrait of the White leader.

3197 Robinson, P. `Russian EmigreÂs, Antisemitism and the Pogroms of 1919', Slovo Vol. 12 (2000), pp. 141±154. An argument that an examination of the archives of White eÂmigreÂs from South Russia reveals that the Whites' participation in slaughters of Jews during the civil war was not a consequence of `pathological' or obsessive anti-semitism, as has often been surmised or alleged, but `was based on coldly calculated tactical considerations' on the part of those officers allowed to participate in pogroms as a consequence of their superiors' weak leadership and inability to impose discipline.

3194 Pearson, R. `Nashe Pravitel'stvo? The Crimean Regional Government of 1918±1919', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 2 (1989), No. 2, pp. 14±30.

A brief examination of Wrangel's internal policies and ideological orientation, concentrating on the issue of land reform. The piece is sympathetic in tone ± unsurprisingly, as it draws virtually all of its information from Wrangel's memoirs.

[1939?]. vi + 302 pp. Following a lengthy historical introduction by the editor, the self-styled `White Guard' Dutch correspondent, there are presented here nearly one hundred contemporary documents which Grondijs brought back with him from Siberia where he was active during the civil war. The documents, mostly dating from November 1919 to January 1920 (and consisting largely of correspondence between the White authorities and General Janin, General Syrovy and the Allied High Commissioners), are intended to demonstrate the `treason' of the Czechoslovak Legion's surrender of Kolchak to the Political Centre at Irkutsk.

Ethnic and National Issues in Russian and East European History: Selected Papers from the Fifth World Congress of Central and East European Studies, Warsaw, 1995. London: Macmillan, 2000. pp. 174±191. A rather confusing essay which discusses the problems caused for Denikin's relations with Poland, Roumania, Georgia, Ukraine and the peoples of the North Caucasus by the Whites' adherence to the principle of `Russia One and Indivisible' before concluding that `The Volunteer command had in general no policy worked out towards the nationalities'.

3205 Varneck, E. and Fisher, H. H. (eds) The Testimony of Kolchak and Other Siberian Materials. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1935. xi + 466 pp. The bulk of this invaluable volume consists of a translation of Kolchak's frank and revealing testimony to his Bolshevik inquisitors at Irkutsk of January to February 1920 (relating his career and the history of the anti-Bolshevik movement in Siberia during 1918), exhaustively annotated by the editors. Three other items included in the volume (Ovchinnikov [5204], `The Nikolaevsk Massacre' [5182] and `The Vladivostok Incident' [5184]) are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

This introduction in English to a collection of documents in Russian provides a critique of early SR and Soviet sources on the Kolchak period, together with an analysis of the rise and fall of the White reÂgime at Omsk. The volumes also contain a useful bibliographical essay by D. N. Collins (pp. xlv±li) and extensive textual notes by J. D. Smele (pp. 677± 732).

The author identifies five dilemmas facing the Kolchak government of 1918 to 1919: its legitimacy, its identity, the development of a political programme, its relation to Siberia, and its dependence on foreign forces. The failure to resolve them, argues Pereira, explains the collapse of the White effort in Siberia.

A thoroughly documented analysis of the policies of the Omsk reÂgime with regard to the land question, local government, the minority nationalities and the summoning of a new constituent assembly, drawing attention to the influence of Allied attitudes upon decision-making, to the absence of homogeneity in the White camp, and to the progressive (albeit weakly held) views of Kolchak himself on some questions.

An attempt to account for how it was that a portion of the Russian gold reserve came to fall into Kolchak's hands and to present, precisely, the known facts as to how, where, why and to whom it was subsequently distributed. (Some gold, the author claims, found its way by irregular means, into the hands of the Japanese military.) Particular emphasis is placed upon the part the gold reserve played in the struggle for power in Siberia, as the White reÂgime collapsed in the winter of 1919 to 1920.

assertion, made on the basis of published and unpublished American records, that, contrary to received wisdom, Kolchak's invitation to visit the United States in the summer of 1917 had nothing to do with a planned US Navy assault on the Dardenelles ± the authors, in fact, deny that such a plan existed ± but was a consequence of Admiral Glennon's personal sympathy for Kolchak and his desire to protect him from danger in the aftermath of the revolt of the Black Sea Fleet. THE WHITE MOVEMENT IN NORTH RUSSIA 3236 Footman, D. `Murmansk and Archangel', in D. Footman Civil War in Russia. London: Faber & Faber, 1961. pp. 167±210. Although based upon a limited range of published sources, this chapter provides a useful and detailed account of the course of Allied intervention and antiBolshevik military (and, to a lesser extent, political) activities in North Russia from the spring of 1918 to the summer of 1919.

Drawing upon a wide range of archival materials, memoirs, contemporary newspapers, etc., the author pays particular attention to the financial and economic determinants of the White failure. The work includes an appendix listing the personnel of the anti-Bolshevik governments in Siberia and an extensive bibliography (pp. 683±750).

3234 Smith, C. F. `The Ungernovshchina: How and Why?', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 28 (1980), pp. 590±595. A brief biographical sketch of `one of the most notorious figures' in the White camp, focusing upon his activities in the Amur region and in Mongolia during the civil war. Smith argues that Ungern was `symptomatic of the [White movement's] failure in leadership' and that his misdeeds `served as a catalyst in replacing Chinese power and influence in Mongolia with that of [Soviet] Russia'.

Presented here is the text of a letter dated 4 December 1919 from Colonel Boris P. Poliakov (a supply officer in the White forces operating in Estonia) to Iudenich's representative in London (General B. V. Heroys) which provides a detailed insider's view of Iudenich's offensive, dwelling in particular upon the debilitating internecine rivalries in a force top-heavy with former tsarist officers.

M. The Rise of the Constitutional Alternative to Soviet Rule in 1918. Provisional Governments of Siberia and All-Russia: Their Quest for Allied Intervention (Parts I and II). Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1998. xxvii + 481 pp. Part I of this volume (The Allies Invited to Intervene: Spring 1918) describes the rise of the political and military agencies of the Democratic Counter-revolution in Siberia and the Far East during the spring and summer of 1918, their `hopes and expectations' in inviting Allied intervention, Allied responses and plans to intervene, `and the reasons responsible for the failure of these plans to materialize and for the ultimate abandonment of the New Russia then in the making'. In it the author also attempts to forecast the probable course of events had the Allies intervened forcefully. Part II (The Fall of Soviet Rule in Siberia: Summer 1918. The Door for Intervention Opened) deals with the military operations of the Czechoslovak Legion and the fall of Soviet power in the East and `highlights the enthusiastic attitude of the local population' toward these developments. The book contains a superb bibliography and numerous interesting photographs and its second part, in particular, provides a wealth of new insights, but it is rather poorly written. Moreover, the volume is as confusingly organized as it is awkwardly entitled, contains some factual errors (including a glaring one in its final sentence) and is overly judgmental in its discussion of `the infamy of Wilson's Russian policy'. Its maps are so poorly reproduced as to be virtually indecipherable, even to anyone familiar with the language in which they are drawn ± Czech.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 3241 Dotsenko, P. The Struggle for a Democracy in Siberia: An Eyewitness Account of a Contemporary. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1983. xvii + 178 pp. A poorly organized but nevertheless valuable memoir of the civil war in Siberia by an SR-oblastnik leader of the democratic counter-revolution in Krasnoiarsk. In essence, the work constitutes a critique of Kolchak and other rightist elements in the east and an extended apologia for the conduct of the SRs. 3242 Lebedev, V. I. The Russian Democracy and Its Struggle against the Bolsheviks. New York: Russian Information Bureau, 1919. 40 pp. This pamphlet largely consists of an account of the military operations of Komuch's People's Army during the summer of 1918.

An examination of the failure of the SR±Popular Socialist coalition, the Supreme Administration of Northern Russia, led by N. V.

DeKalb, IL: Northern Illinois University Press, 1994. xi + 319 pp. A carefully researched and detailed comparative analysis of the Smena vekh movement, focusing upon its foundation, the divergence of opinions within the leadership, and the variety of attitudes to it among other eÂmigreÂ circles (in particular the hostile regard in which it was held by monarchists). The text, which integrates some useful sketches of the careers of the movement's chief protagonists, utilizes virtually all available primary materials (including Russian archives) and is heavily annotated ± over one-third of the volume is devoted to the scholarly apparatus.

A brief discussion of some of the key literary publications of the inter-war Russian diaspora. The author views eÂmigreÂ writers as divisible into a pessimistic older school, still linked to the Moscow and Petersburg literary world, and a younger `Western' school. 3274 Johnston, R. H. `In Defence of the Defeated: Sovremennye zapiski in the February Revolution', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 24 (1982), No. 1, pp. 11±24.

I. Vishniak, A. I. Gukovskii, V. V. Rudnev, N. D. Avksent'ev, and I. I. Bunakov-Fondaminskii). The author concludes that `measured by any yardstick, the Sovremennye zapiski campaign on behalf of the February Revolution must be judged a failure'.

3275 Johnston, R. H. New Mecca, New Babylon: Paris and the Russian Exiles, 1920±1945. Montreal: McGill-Queen's University Press, 1988. ix + 254 pp. Gathering material from widely scattered and fragmentary published and unpublished sources (especially from the eÂmigreÂ press), the author presents a deftly constructed and very well-written portrait of eÂmigreÂ social, political and cultural life in Paris between the wars, showing how the `pioneer refugees' of the first emigration dealt with the slow realization that their exile would be permanent. The concentration is on those many thousands of refugees who were `utterly uncelebrated' rather than on the most prominent figures. The work includes a useful bibliography.

Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1990. viii + 239 pp. A masterly dispassionate account of the eÂmigreÂ community between the wars, focusing upon developments in education, publishing, culture, religion and historical scholarship and stressing the Parisian community's efforts to preserve Russian culture in the certain belief that their return to Russia was imminent.

Jena: Verlag der Fromannschen Buchhandlung (Walter Biedermann), 1927. xi + 238 pp. A highly critical discussion of the Russian eÂmigreÂ scene, arguing for the necessity of a fundamental reorientation towards a position not predicated on a cataclysmic collapse of Bolshevism and one concerned primarily with cultural and intellectual rather than military matters. In this process the author holds the growth of support for fascism and Eurasianism among eÂmigreÂ circles to be important harbingers.

The latter involved a number of former adherents of Kolchak.

WuÈrzburg: Holzner Verlag, 1966. viii + 154 pp. The main focus of this brief study, based upon official German documents, is the social composition and legal status of the Russian eÂmigreÂs. Most attention is devoted to monarchist and other rightwing groups (including the Western Army of Bermondt-Avalov, who is the subject of three appended documents). There is a brief treatment of the liberals and the SRs, but, inexplicably, the Mensheviks are excluded.

18 Popular Hostility to Soviet Rule GENERAL AND MISCELLANEOUS STUDIES

A ground-breaking analysis and typology of the peasant insurrectionary movements of 1919, in which the author attempts to define peasant attitudes toward and perceptions of the Bolshevik reÂgime. He concludes that `the Bolsheviks' enemy number one were not the Whites but the Russian peasants' and that it was the war against them that shaped subsequent Soviet institutions and attitudes.

3298 Aves, J. Workers against Lenin: Labour Protest and the Bolshevik Dictatorship, 1920±1922. London: I. B. Tauris, 1996. x + 220 pp. Utilizing Russian archival sources and (mainly) contemporary newspapers and other publications, the author traces `the emergence of a revolutionary situation' in the spring of 1921, examining the genesis and consequences of strike movements in Moscow, Petrograd, Saratov, the Donbass and the Urals, and arguing that the crisis `owed little to the activities of opposition political parties but was the unintended consequence' of the intensification of War Communism after the end of the civil war, and that there existed a basic continuity between the labour unrest of 1917 and that of 1920 to 1921.

3302 Brovkin, V. `Workers' Unrest and the Bolsheviks' Response in 1919', Slavic Review Vol. 49 (1990), No. 3, pp. 350±373. A unique survey and analysis of the circumstantial evidence (from eÂmigreÂ and Soviet sources) relating to instances of political protest at Moscow, Petrograd, Tula, Sormovo, Briansk, Tver and Astrakhan in the period February to July 1919.

3299 Berk, S. M. `The Class Tragedy of Izhevsk: Working-class Opposition to Bolshevism in 1918', Russian History Vol. 2 (1975), No. 2, pp. 176±190. This brief (and, in English, virtually unique) history of the largest working-class revolt against Bolshevism traces its origins to the arbitrary and harsh measures employed by the Soviet government in the period October 1917 to August 1918, as well as to the relatively high standard of living and only `semi-proletarian' nature of the Ural±Kama workforce ± a point which was traditionally stressed by Soviet historians.

3303 Brovkin, V. and Fieseler, B. `Ein Streik in Sowjetrussland. Arbeiterprotest und Bol'sÏ evistische Reaktion: Element von KontinuitaÈt und Wandel im Zentrum', Bochumer Archiv fuÈr die Geschichte des Widerstandes und der Arbeit No. 7 (1985), pp. 101±119. The authors here present a report (now held in the Nikolaevsky Collection of the Hoover Institution) concerning a strike by metalworkers and munition workers in Tula, in May to June 1920, which was circulated by the Menshevik Central Committee among Western European socialists. They argue that the strike was not an isolated incident but epitomized a continuity of Menshevik-inspired labour unrest, in Tula and beyond, from 1918 onward.

3300 Biggart, J. `The Astrakhan Rebellion: An Episode in the Life of Sergey Mironovich Kirov', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 54 (1976), No. 2, pp. 231±247. A straightforward account of events at Astrakhan during the civil war, based upon published Soviet sources and focusing upon the role of Kirov in suppressing the workers' rebellion in the town of March 1919, as well as his integration into Stalin's group of `Caucasian' communists.

3304 Gaucher, R. Opposition in the USSR, 1917± 1967 (transl. by C. L. Markman). New York: Funk & Wagnalls, 1969. 547 pp. The early chapters of this entertainingly written anti-Bolshevik survey include sections on Menshevik, SR, White and Ukrainian nationalist opposition to the Soviet government, as well as coverage of the Kronstadt rebellion and the Makhno movement. 3305 G2e)rmanis, U. `Some Observations on the Yaroslavl' Revolt in July 1918', Journal of Baltic Studies Vol. 4 (1973), No. 3, pp. 236±243.

The Kronstadt Uprising . 3313 A brief description of the revolt organized by Boris Savinkov's Union for the Defence of the Fatherland, paying particular attention to the role of Latvians on both sides and the involvement of local civilians and German prisoners of war.

Selected Papers from the Fifth World Congress of Central and East European Studies, Warsaw, 1995. London: Macmillan, 1999. 37±46. Utilizing stenographic accounts of all plenary sessions of the Assembly, as well as other archival documents, the author briefly surveys the genesis, leadership, composition and strengths and weaknesses of the independent workers' movement in Petrograd in early 1918, arguing that moving from an original position of hoping to work with the government to resolve issues of unemployment, food shortage, etc. the workers' leaders, by May 1918, `began to talk directly about the necessity of overthrowing the Soviet government'.

3306 MuÈller, E. `Autonome Bewegungen des Volkskrieges in Sowjetrussland nach der Revolution von 1917', in G. Schulz (ed.) Partisanen und Volkskrieg: Zur Revolutionierung des Krieges im 20. Jahrhundert. GoÈttingen: Vandenhoeck und Rupprecht, 1985. pp. 36±56. A brief summary of outbreaks of popular hostility to Bolshevik rule which concentrates upon the activities of Makhno in the Ukraine and A. S. Antonov in Tambov province.

3311 Voline [pseud.] The Unknown Revolution: Kronstadt 1921, Ukraine 1918±21 (fwd. by R. Rocker). Montreal: Black Rose Books, 1974. 717 pp. Part memoir, part documentary study, part polemical tract, this work by the anarchist Vsevolod M. Eichenbaum (first published in French as La ReÂvolution inconnue in 1947) has become a classic of the literature of the Russian revolution. Beginning with a survey of the history of the revolutionary movement from an anarchist perspective, the author goes on to describe the relations between the Bolsheviks and the anarchists in the first months after October before presenting two influential accounts of mass opposition to the Soviet government: the Kronstadt rebellion, and the Makhno movement (in which he was a leading participant). Unfortunately, this and every other edition of Voline's work does not include the 110-page conclusion he wrote for it. On the author see Avrich, P. `V. M. Eikhenbaum (Volin): Portrait of a Russian Anarchist', in E. Mendelsohn and M. S. Shatz (eds) Imperial Russia, 1700±1917: State, Society, Opposition.

New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 154±170. A concise account of peasant rebellions against the Soviet government during the civil war, from opposition to the Committees of the Village Poor in 1918, through resistance to the draft and desertions from the Red Army in 1918 and 1919, to the armed risings in the Volga basin and Tambov province of 1919 to 1921. The Russian author draws extensively upon materials from the archives in Moscow. 3308 Pavliuchenkov, S. `Workers' Protest Movements against War Communism', in V. N. Brovkin (ed.) The Bolsheviks in Russian Society: The Revolution and the Civil Wars. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 141±153. A Russian historian's unfocused but factually informative survey of workers' protests against the Soviet government from 1917 to 1921. 3309 Pereira, N. G. O. `Lenin and the Siberian Peasant Insurrections', in G. Diment and Y. Slezkine (eds) Between Heaven and Hell: The Myth of Siberia in Russian Culture. New York: St Martin's Press, 1993, pp. 134±150. The author examines how peasant uprisings in western Siberia at the end of the civil war (from 1920 to 1921) challenged fundamental Bolshevik expectations and assumptions regarding the class nature of the peasantry.

THE KRONSTADT UPRISING

Presented here are examples of the polemical exchanges of 1937 to 1939 between Viktor Serge and Leon Trotsky over the crushing of the Kronstadt rising, some of them hitherto unpublished, others appearing originally in The New International, La Lutte ouvrieÁre, La ReÂvolution proleÂtarienne, and the Bulletin of the Opposition.

3317 Arvon, H. 1921: La ReÂvolte de Cronstadt. Brussels: Editions Complex, 1980. 154 pp. This brief sympathetic survey, dwelling upon the ambiguous nature of the revolt, includes extracts from numerous contemporary documents. 3318 Avrich, P. Kronstadt 1921. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1970. xi + 271 pp. Masterfully written, this volume remains the only full-length, scholarly, non-partisan account of the genesis, course and repression of the rebellion to have appeared in English. The author's thesis is that the revolt `echoed the discontents . . . of the mass of Russians in towns and villages throughout the country', but particularly noteworthy are the sections analysing evidence of the involvement of antiBolshevik eÂmigreÂ groups ± among the volume's documentary appendices is the now notorious `Memorandum on the Question of Organizing an Uprising in Kronstadt' of the National Centre.

3314 Mutnick, B. (ed.) Kronstadt, by V. I. Lenin and Leon Trotsky (introd. by P. Frank). London: Monad Press, 1979. 159 pp. Following an introduction, by a leading Trotskyist, offering a critique of the writings on Kronstadt of Ida Mett [3326], A. Skirda [3332] and Paul Avrich [3318], this useful volume includes a number of extracts from the fifth edition of Lenin's Collected Works; contemporary articles and speeches by Trotsky; later commentaries by Trotsky; and the heated exchanges between Trotsky, Trotskyites and Trotsky's critics which appeared in the American Trotskyite journal New International in 1938 and 1939 ± including the full version of Wright, J. G. The Truth About Kronstadt. London: Socialist Workers' Party (National Education Department), 1939. For the original exchanges see Trotsky, L. D. `Hue and Cry Over Kronstadt', New International (April 1938), pp. 103±106; Serge, V. `Once More: Kronstadt', New International (July 1938), pp. 211±212; Macdonald, D. `Once More: Kronstadt', New International (July 1938), pp. 212± 214; Trotsky, L.

3319 Berkman, A. The Kronstadt Rebellion. Berlin: Der Syndicalist, 1922. 42 pp. In this impassioned piece the noted anarchist voices his disgust at the Bolsheviks' crushing of the rebellion ± an event he observed from Petersburg. 3320 Ciliga, A. The Kronstadt Revolt. London: The Freedom Press, 1942. 16 pp. A bitter refutation of Trotsky's articles of 1938, from the anarchist point of view. 3321 Daniels, R. V. `The Kronstadt Revolt of 1921: A Study in the Dynamics of Revolution', Slavic Review Vol. 10 (1951), No. 4, pp. 241±254. The author explains the revolt as `symptomatic of the general state of internal crisis in Soviet Russia' and interprets its merciless suppression by Lenin as fulfilling, in peasant Russia, Engels's prophecy that `the worst thing that can befall the leader of an extreme party is to be compelled to take over a government in an epoch when the movement is not yet ripe for the domination of the class which he represents and for the realization of the measures which that domination would imply'.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 3315 Karelin, V. Aufstand der Matrosen. Bericht uÈber eine verratene Revolution. Kronstadt 1921. Freiburg/Basel/Vienna: Herder, 1972. 219 pp. Although he was an eyewitness to the events at Kronstadt, Karelin did not write this memoir of it until half a century later. The book is vividly written and exudes considerable pathos, but it is highly impressionistic and partisan and needs to be used with caution.

3322 Hunter, A. `The Kronstadt Revolt of 1921 and Stefan Petrichenko', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 23 (1967), No. 3, pp. 255±263. Disappointingly, this article is not an analysis of the Ukrainian sailor's role in the revolt, but a (predictably anti-Soviet) general account of the events of February to March 1921.

3330 Pollock, E. The Kronstadt Rebellion: The First Armed Revolt against the Soviets. New York: Philosophical Library, 1959. ix + 98 pp. A fine example of populist, anti-Soviet polemicism, written at the height of the cold war. Drawing comparisons with the Soviet invasion of Hungary in 1956, the author seeks to prove that `Power is the Communists' God. Human sacrifice is the legitimate food of the monster the Communists worship.'

3324 Marie, J.-J. `Le dernier survivant de Cronstadt', L'Histoire No. 142 (1991), pp. 64±66. A brief discussion of how the rebellion was portrayed in the memoirs of Ivan Ermolaev which were published in Russia in 1989.

3331 Schapiro, L. `A Turning Point in the History of Socialism: The Kronstadt Rising', The Listener (4 June 1981). A brief chronicle of the events, sympathetic to the rebels and drawing comparisons with the crises in Hungary in 1956, Czechoslovakia in 1968, and Poland in 1980.

3325 Mawdsley, E. `The Baltic Fleet and the Kronstadt Mutiny', Soviet Studies Vol. 24 (1972± 1973), No. 4, pp. 506±521. The author, an expert on the Baltic Fleet, explains the mutiny as being, at least in part, traceable to crises of material, personnel, administration and morale particular to the fleet, as opposed to it being a symptom of the general catastrophic economic situation within Soviet Russia.

3332 Skirda, A. (ed.) Kronstadt 1921: ProleÂtariat contre bolcheÂvisme. Paris: Editions de la TeÃte de Feuilles, 1972. 275 pp. This important collection, sympathetic to the rebels, includes a study by Skirda (`ProleÂtariat contre bolcheÂvisme') of the events of 1921 and the historiography of the rising and a 1923 piece by an anarchist leader of the Kronstadters, Efim Yarchouk, `Kronstadt dans la ReÂvolution russe' (later published separately, in an English translation, as Yartchuk, E. Kronstadt in the Russian Revolution. London: Kate Sharpley Library, 1994. 36 pp.), which concentrates on the sailors' part in the July Days and the October Revolution. Also included are reproductions of two articles by Stefan Petrichenko and an interview with the Provisional Revolutionary Committee of Kronstadt which originally appeared in an eÂmigreÂ journal in May 1921.

3326 Mett, I. The Kronstadt Commune (introd. by M. Bookchin). Montreal: Black Rose/Our Generation Press, 1971. 93 pp. The slightly abridged English-language edition of a much republished anarchist commentary upon the events, which originally appeared in French in 1938. The volume includes translations of numerous contemporary newspaper extracts and documents. 3327 Neumann, J. `A Note on the Winter of the Kronstadt Sailors' Uprising in 1921', Soviet Studies Vol. 44 (1992), No. 1, pp. 153±154. The author establishes that, contrary to received opinion, the winter of 1920 to 1921 was actually relatively mild in the Petrograd region and speculates that expectation of an early thawing of the ice in the Gulf of Finland might have influenced the Bolsheviks' decision to suppress the rising.

NESTOR MAKHNO

Historiography

3328 Pearce, B. `1921 and All That', Labour Review Vol. 5 (1960), No. 3, pp. 84±92. A rather strained attempt to debunk the `myth' of Kronstadt from a pro-Bolshevik point of view.

3333 Cipko, S. `Nestor Makhno: A Mini-historiography of the Anarchist Revolution in Ukraine, 1917±1921', The Raven Vol. 4 (1991), No. 1 (13), pp. 57±75. This piece from an anarchist journal provides an extremely useful, chronologically organized examination of how the issues which aroused such hostility to Makhno among both Soviet and Ukrainian eÂmigreÂ writers have been treated in scholarly works in English and French.

3329 Petrov-Skitaletz, E. The Kronstadt Thesis for a Free Russian Government: `All Power to the Soviets ± But to Free Democratic-Socialist, Non-Communist Dominated Soviets!' (transl. by J. F. O'Conor). New York: Robert Speller & Sons, 1964. 134 pp. This curio, being a programme for a future noncommunist Soviet government inspired by the Kronstadt sailors, was written by the son of the poet S. G. Petrov (`Skitaletz').

3334 Darch, C. `The Myth of Nestor Makhno', Economy and Society Vol. 14 (1985), No. 4, pp. 524± 536. 337

3335 . 18 Popular Hostility to Soviet Rule An instructive and readable survey of the central historiographical issues of the Makhno movement. Focusing upon the works of Malet [3345] and Skirda [3352], the author argues that both `belong firmly to the tradition of mystification . . . by liberationists'.

Makhno's memoirs (introduced, annotated and with an epilogue by the anonymous anarchist translator) in which he recounts his interviews with Sverdlov and Lenin of June 1918. Appended is a 1934 tribute to Makhno, by the Jewish anarchist Sh. Yankovsky, which refutes the charge that Makhno was a pogromist.

Documents

3339 Tsebry, O. Memories of a Makhnovist Partisan. London: Kate Sharpley Library, 1993. 17 pp. A poorly produced (and rather misleadingly entitled) pamphlet in which the author recounts some generalized memories of his father ± a peasant communal leader turned partisan who identified with the Makhnovists and who exhibited grave distrust of the anarchist intellectuals who joined the movement.

3335 Makhno, N. The Struggle against the State and Other Essays (ed. and transl. by A. Skirda). Edinburgh/San Francisco: AK Press, 1996. 114 pp. A collection of eighteen essays contributed by Makhno to eÂmigreÂ publications (among them Delo truda, Probuzdenie, and Bor'ba) in the period 1927 to 1933. The subject matter is divided equally between contemporary events and anarchist theory on the one hand and self-vindicatory reflections upon the history of the revolution in Ukraine and the Makhno movement (including a piece refuting charges of antisemitism) on the other. Appended is a bibliographical afterword by the editor, discussing published and unpublished sources on Makhno.

Studies 3340 Arshinov, P. History of the Makhnovist Movement, 1918±1921 (pref. by Voline). Detroit: Black and Red, 1974. 284 pp. The first English translation of a study by one of the movement's leading adherents, which was originally published the Group of Russian Anarchists in Berlin in 1923. Very critical of the Soviet reÂgime, the aim of the work is to show that the movement was not a rabble led by common bandits but was `composed of the lowest strata of the population'. Appended are translations of eleven Makhnovist proclamations.

3336 van Rossum, L. J. `Proclamations of the Machno Movement', International Review of Social History Vol. 13 (1968), No. 1, pp. 246±268. Included herein are the texts of eleven proclamations (in Russian ± for an English translation see Arshinov [3340], pp. 265±284) from the archive of the Italian anarchist Udo Fedeli. A short introduction sets the documents in context and provides interesting insights into their provenance: the fact that one was printed on wrapping paper from a Khar'kov sweetmeat factory, notes van Rossum, speaks volumes as to the constrained material circumstances of the Makhnovists.

3341 Dahlmann, D. `Anarchism and the Makhno Movement', Study Group on the Russia Revolution: Sbornik No. 11 (1985), pp. 4±25. The purpose of this closely argued piece is `to confront [the] movement under Makhno with theoretical considerations on the emergence and structure of anarchist movements'. The author concludes that `the Makhno movement resembled in many ways quite a lot of other agrarian revolutionary movements. It combined a ``new'' ideology with old structures.' See also Dahlmann, D. Land und Freiheit: Machnovschina und Zapatismo als Beispiele agrarrevolutionaÈrer Bewegungen. Stuttgart: Steiner, 1986. 296 pp.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 3337 Makhno, N. La ReÂvolution russe en Ukraine, Mars 1917±Avril 1918. Paris: Brochure Mensuelle, 1927. 360 pp. Surprisingly, this volume (a translation of the first of a three-volume series originally published in Russian in Paris) remains the only section of Makhno's memoirs to appear in a western European language. The work recounts Makhno's release from prison after the February Revolution and his return to Ukraine to organize a revolutionary anarchist commune in his home village.

3342 Footman, D. `Makhno', in D. Footman Civil War in Russia. London: Faber & Faber, 1961. pp. 245±302. A clear and accurate chronicle of the military operations of Makhno's forces from early 1918 to the flight into Roumania of August 1921. This chapter appeared originally as Footman, D. `Nestor Makhno', St. Antony's Papers Vol. 6/Soviet Affairs

3338 Makhno, N. My Visit to the Kremlin. London: Kate Sharpley Library/Black Cat Press, 1993. 37 pp. This pamphlet consists of two chapters from 338

Nestor Makhno . 3352 No. 2 (1959), pp. 75±128. For a summary see Footman, D. `Nestor Makhno and the Russian Civil War', History Today Vol. 6 (1956), pp. 811±820.

Apostles of Revolution. London: Martin Secker & Warburg Ltd., 1939. pp. 302±342. A brief, admiring biography of `one of the most heroic and glamorous figures of the Russian civil war', based upon published sources (especially Arshinov [3340]). See also Nomad, M. `The Epic of Nestor Makhno. The ``Bandit'' Who Saved Moscow', Modern Monthly Vol. 9 (1935±1936), Nos 6±8, pp. 334±346, 401±416, 490±492.

3343 Kessel, J. Makhno et sa Juive. Paris: Eos, 1926. 220 pp. A fictionalized and very hostile portrait of Makhno as the devil incarnate. 3344 Litvinov, P. `Nestor Makhno et la question juive', Vremya i my (Israel), No. 17 (1983). An attempt, by the grandson of Stalin's Minister of Foreign Affairs, to demonstrate that Makhno was never an anti-Semite ± that, in fact, he `deserves to have his memory respected and honoured by the Jews'. This piece originally appeared in a samizdat text in Moscow in 1982.

3350 Palij, M. The Anarchism of Nestor Makhno, 1917±1921: An Aspect of the Ukrainian Revolution. Seattle: University of Washington Press, 1976. xiv + 428 pp. Although flawed and not well-written (and despite the fact that large sections of the book are devoted to the rise of Ukrainian national consciousness, the histories of the Rada, the Hetmanate and the Directory and other matters not central to the theme suggested by its main title), this volume remains the most substantial and detailed monographic study available of Makhno. It is based upon a wide range of printed sources and the unpublished reminiscences of numerous eyewitnesses, and throws significant new light upon its subject's attitude to the question of Ukrainian nationalism as well as his relationship with the Bolsheviks and the Whites.

3345 Malet, M. Nestor Makhno in the Russian Civil War. London: Macmillan, 1982. xxvii + 232 pp. The author of this volume expresses his sympathy for Makhno and his anarchist ideas at the outset, but produced a sweeping and cogent, chronologically organized assessment of the significance and role of Makhno and his movement within the civil war and throughout the Russian Empire. Particularly original are the sections of the work dealing with the internal organization and ideology of the Makhno movement, the relationship of the movement with peasants, workers, Jews and its political opponents, and (especially) its very detailed coverage of the military aspects of the movement. However, the volume suffers from its lack of footnotes and scholarly apparatus.

3351 Peters, V. Nestor Makhno: The Life of an Anarchist. Winnipeg: Echo Books, 1970. 133 pp. Not quite the biography which its title promises, in that the volume concentrates firmly upon the military and political activities of the Insurgent Army during the civil war. Nevertheless, in this readable account the author included a wealth of information concerning Makhno's life and character, much of it gleaned from interviews and correspondence with eÂmigreÂ friends, associates and enemies of the anarchist leader. The author himself hailed from the Huliai Pole region, but displays little sympathy for his subject. The Appendix contains translations of rare documents relating to the Makhnovshchina.

3346 Martinez Codo, E. `La gueÂrilla en Ukraine', Revue militaire geÂneÂrale (May 1962). 3347 Menzies, M. Makhno: une eÂpopeÂe. Le souleÁvement anarchiste en Ukraine (1918±1921) (transl. by M. Chrestien). Paris: Editions Pierre Belfond, 1972. 254 pp. A popular biography of Makhno and an account of his forces' activities in Ukraine from 1918 to 1921, overtly sympathetic to the anarchist leader.

3352 Skirda, A. Les Cosaques de la LiberteÂ: Nestor Makhno, le Cosaque de l'Anarchie et la guerre civile russe 1917±1921. Paris: Librairie R. Ribes, 1982. 475 pp. An account (clearly inspired by its anarchist author's admiration for his subject) of Makhno's life from his birth near Huliai Pole in the Ukraine in 1889 to his death in Paris in 1935, although concentrating heavily on Makhno's political and military struggles of the years 1917 to 1921. Skirda's is a full and lively treatment of the subject, if not an entirely scholarly one, and is considerably enriched by lengthy quotations from contemporary documents, the use of rare

3348 Mett, I. Souvenirs sur Nestor Makhno. Paris: Editions Allia, 1983. 28 pp. Some impressionistic and often contradictory reflections on Makhno's character and significance by a member of the Paris-based anarchist group Delo truda from 1925 to 1928. Mett was personally acquainted with Makhno. 3349 Nomad, M. `The Warrior: Nestor Makhno, the Bandit Who Saved Moscow', in M. Nomad 339

3353 . 18 Popular Hostility to Soviet Rule materials published by exiled Russian anarchists in France and Germany during the 1920s, interviews with contemporaries of Makhno, its uniquely detailed treatment of Makhno's life in exile, and the inclusion of some interesting photographs. Appended are eleven appeals and proclamations of the Makhnovists.

Russian Society: The Revolution and the Civil Wars. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 177±198. A concise account of the Tambov peasants' resistance to Soviet power from 1918 to the Antonov movement of 1920 to 1921. The author notes that it was the peasant commune which provided the `organizing principle' for the expression of discontent, but `only on the village or district level', enabling `small [Soviet] government forces to suppress large risings piecemeal'.

3353 Sysyn, F. `Nestor Makhno and the Ukrainian Revolution', in T. Hunczak (ed.) The Ukraine, 1917± 1921: A Study in Revolution (introd. by R. Pipes). Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1977. pp. 271±304. In this well-researched and lucidly written chapter the author concentrates on the evolution of Makhno's thought on the nationality issue, seeing the anarchist's `development of his own Ukrainian national consciousness' as `a testimony to the triumph of the Ukrainian national revival' in the years after the revolution. The chapter includes many useful bibliographic references.

3356 Radkey, O. H. The Unknown Civil War in Russia: A Study of the Green Movement in the Tambov Region, 1920±1921. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1976. xiv + 456 pp. An impressive presentation of virtually every scrap of evidence relating to the Antonovshchina available in the West, although its inveterately anticommunist (and even anti-intellectual) author never quite succeeds in convincing the reader that the Greens constituted `a movement', or that the Antonov-led rebels had the quality of a real `third force' with the potential to provide a serious democratic alternative to both the Reds and the Whites, or that Antonov himself was a gifted organizer and leader.

3354 Ternon, Y. Makhno: La ReÂvolte anarchiste. Brussels: Editions Complexe, 1981. 192 pp. An overtly sympathetic, readable, popular account, based almost entirely on secondary sources. Ternon (whose profession was medicine, not history) treats Makhno and the Makhno movement as `the avatar of the legendary Zaporozhian Cossacks . . . but free of all nationalist, religious, or racist prejudices'. Included in the volume is a brief, but nevertheless useful, annotated bibliography.

3357 Singleton, S. `The Tambov Revolt (1920± 1921)', Slavic Review Vol. 25 (1966), No. 3, pp. 497±512. A brief history of the most extensive of the rebellions against Soviet power which flared up toward the end of the civil war, based largely on the remarkably candid report of V. A. AntonovOvseenko, the Red Army commander sent to Tambov to suppress the rising and to investigate its causes.

3358 The Bolsheviks and the October Revolution: Central Committee Minutes of the Russian SocialDemocratic Labour Party (Bolsheviks), August 1917± February 1918 (transl. by A. Bone). London: Pluto Press, 1974. x + 331 pp. Translated from the second Russian edition, which was prepared by the Institute of MarxismLeninism and published in 1958, this work constitutes the most important single volume of source material on the Bolsheviks from the time of the October Revolution to the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. The unnamed Trotskyist editors of this edition have included the extensive notes and the documents (mostly by Lenin) additional to the Central Committee minutes which the Institute added, together with further rather superfluous annotation by Tony Cliff. See also Migliardi, G. `I protocolli del Comitato Centrale. 1917±1918', Istituto Giangiacomo Feltrinelli: Annali Vol. 3 (1960), pp. 781±802.

3360 Kool, F. and OberlaÈnder, E. (eds) Arbeiterdemokratie oder Parteidiktatur (introd. by O. Anweiler). Freiburg: Walter Verlag, 1967. 535 pp. Collected in this outstanding volume are German translations of key texts detailing the views of internal oppositions within the Bolshevik Party from the Left Bolsheviks of 1918 to the Workers' Opposition of 1921, together with a German translation of the text of The Truth about Kronstadt originally published in Russian in Prague in 1921. 3361 McNeal, R.

Resolutions and Decisions of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Vol. 2: The Early Soviet Period, 1917±1929 (ed. by R. Gregor). Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1974. xi + 382 pp. A meticulously documented and informatively introduced selection (derived from published Soviet sources) of party resolutions and decisions on all matters except those relating to foreign policy.

COLLECTED BIOGRAPHIES AND PROSOPOGRAPHIES 3362 [Anon.] `Some Bolshevist Portraits', International Conciliation No. 147 (1920), pp. 49±70. Reproduced here are a series of character sketches of the Soviet leadership from an allegedly wellinformed (but overtly anti-semitic) correspondent of the London Times (originally published in that journal on 25, 26 and 29 March and 7 April 1919). These pieces provoked a furious campaign of protest at the time of their original publication: see the Jewish Chronicle No. 2609 (4 April/4 Nisan 1919) p. 6; No. 2610 (11 April/11 Nisan 1919) pp. 8, 9, 13; and No. 2611 (18 April/18 Nisan 1919), p. 5. 341

3363 . 19 The Bolsheviks 3363 Chamberlin, W. H. `Who's Who in Soviet Russia', Atlantic Monthly Vol. 134 (1924), pp. 545± 555. Herein, in the aftermath of Lenin's death, the author provides some well-written if somewhat stereotypical pen-portraits of the Bolshevik leaders: `Trotzky is a man of fire; Stalin is a man of ice'. The piece is now chiefly of interest in that it harks back to a time when it seemed perfectly reasonable to argue that `despite his setback last winter, Trotzky is distinctly a figure to be reckoned with in Russian political life'.

Plekhanov, Sverdlov, Volodarskii, Uritskii, Martov, Kalinin, and Pavel Bessalko. The introduction provides a brief biography of the author, while the translator contributes a historiographically useful comparison of the various Soviet editions of the work. For a commentary upon the comparisons made between Lenin and Trotsky in this volume see Strada, V. `Lenin e Trockij', in F. Gori, (ed.) Pensiero e azione politica di Lev Trockij. Florence: Leo S. Olschki, 1982, pp. 43±57. 3367 Mawdsley, E. `Makers of the Soviet Union Revisited: The Bolshevik CC Elite in the Revolutionary Period', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 8 (1995), No. 2, pp. 195±211. The author's analysis of the biographies of the seventy-eight members and candidate members of the party Central Committee from 1917 to 1923 provides an updating of W. E. Mosse's earlier article [3369] and challenges certain of his conclusions ± notably Mosse's contention that a clear break occurred in 1920, with a group of `New Bolsheviks' beginning to supersede the old eÂlite.

3364 Chase, W. and Getty, J. A. `The Moscow Bolshevik Cadres of 1917: A Prosopographic Analysis', Russian History Vol. 5 (1978), No. 1, pp. 84±105. In one of the first attempts to shift attention away from the party's highest leadership and away from the events of 1917 in Petrograd, on the basis of a large number of published Soviet works the authors of this article present a `collective biography' of 127 party workers who helped to direct the seizure of power in Moscow. The `sample' is analysed according to social origin, occupation, educational level, nationality, place of birth, age in 1917, sex, marital status, pre-revolutionary activity (including experience of imprisonment and internal and foreign exile), and revolutionary activity in 1917. See also Getty, J. A. and Chase, W. `The Moscow Party Elite of 1917 in the Great Purges', Russian History Vol. 5 (1978), No. 1, pp. 106±127.

Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2000. xx + 323 pp. The opening chapter of this ground-breaking general prosopographic analysis of Soviet leaders discusses the social background, education, etc. of the `Revolutionaries in Power'. 3369 Mosse, W. E. `Makers of the Soviet Union', Slavonic and East European Review Vols 46±47 (1968±1969), pp. 141±154. The author's analysis of the biographical details of nearly 250 leading Bolsheviks of the year 1917 and the immediately succeeding years leads him to conclude that `the early Soviet leadership was not a random collection of individuals' but possessed `certain well-defined characteristics, among them a predominantly middle-class background, a high level of educational attainment and a relatively high proportion of men of non-Russian extraction'. Some comparison is then made with the leadership of the SRs and Mensheviks.

London: Allen & Unwin Ltd., 1974. 452 pp. This immensely useful volume contains fifty-six autobiographies and `authorised lives', all but one of which were written between 1922 and 1926 for inclusion in the Entsiklopedicheskii slovar'Russkogo bibliograficheskogo instituta Granata (Moscow: 1927± 1929), a collection which invited contributors to dwell upon their role in the revolutionary period.

Following a critique of modern historiography of Bogdanov and Vpered, the author argues that, contrary to received opinion, Bogdanov `regarded the achievement of revolutionary socialist consciousness by the working class as, ultimately, the product of the pedagogical activity of Social Democratic intellectuals'.

A brief biographical study, focusing upon Bogdanov's work as a scientist and physician, in which the author discusses theories regarding his subject's death in the aftermath of a blood transfusion. For Huestis, the liklihood is that Bogdanov did not commit suicide and was not murdered but was merely the victim of `a tragic and ironic mishap', as a consequence of the then imperfectly developed techniques for cross-matching blood groups.

3390 Walicki, A. `The Problem of the Socialist Intelligentsia', Russian Review Vol. 49 (1990), No. 3, pp. 293±304. Reviewing points made by Biggart [3378] and Marot [3387] in articles in the same volume, the author argues that `Bogdanov's ``collectivism'' deserves to be known as an insightful reconstruction of the communist utopia and an unintended proof of its inherent totalitarianism'. 3391 White, J. D. `Bogdanov in Tula', Studies in Soviet Thought Vol. 22 (1981), pp. 33±58.

in the period of Chicherin's commissarship. For the author, Chicherin `stood for a continued validity of Realpolitik in the tradition of Metternich and Bismarck at a time when the professional revolutionaries were all but throwing diplomacy overboard'.

Focusing upon Chicherin's wartime conversion from Menshevism to Bolshevism, and largely on the basis of his publications of the time, the author details the future Commissar for Foreign Affairs' activities in England, noting that if he had any reservations about joining Lenin's party they were certainly gone by the time he was released from his internment in Brixton prison in January 1918.

A useful investigation of the background to the internments of Petroff in 1915 and of Chicherin in 1917, and of Bolshevik motives in campaigning so vigorously for their repatriation after the revolution, which the author ascribes, like Debo [3405], to Trotsky's desire to initiate diplomatic contacts with Britain so as to leave a `diplomatic escape route' if German terms at Brest-Litovsk proved unacceptable.

3406 Debo, R. K. `Chicherin', in G. Gorodetsky (ed.) Soviet Foreign Policy, 1917±1991: A Retrospective. London: Frank Cass, 1994. pp. 21±29. A sympathetic and amusing appreciation of Chicherin's talents as a diplomat, focusing in particular upon his strained relations with Lord Curzon.

3413 Bromage, B. Man of Terror: Dzherzhynski. London: Peter Owen Limited, 1933. 223 pp. A sensationalized and popular account, but still the only full biography of Dzierzynski available in a Western language, stressing the Polish and Catholic traits of its subject's personality. The author finds evidence of `a pathological element in Dzherzhynski's make-up: paranoia maybe, certainly sadism . . . He had a real affection for his revolver', but allows that even his most censorious critics `will have to admit that, like other innovators, his experiments were conducted from the highest motives'.

A. M. Kollontai . 3424 A popular (and semi-fictionalized), sensationalist and at times quite unbelievable biography, which somehow manages to remain thought-provoking. The author, who met Dzierzynski in a Polish prison before the First World War and was himself arrested by the Cheka in January 1918, concludes that when Dzierzynski died `it was no ordinary madman that left the world but one of the saddest of all suffering men'.

A unique, dedicated study of the `right' Bolshevik, examining in particular the question of Kamenev's alleged `moderation' (his motives in becoming a Bolshevik and opposing the seizure of power in 1917), his political life up to the outbreak of the civil war, and the potential of materials in the Soviet archives for further developments of this type of study.

The author explains Kollontai's commitment to utopian communism as reflecting her personal lifelong `dream' ± the dream `for an escape from isolation into a ``family'' . . . [and] for the finding within that family of the one or several with whom she could have sexual love without sacrifice of self', as well as for the end of urban solitude and isolation.

A brief sympathetic biographical sketch, which argues that `the most important reason . . . for the failure of Kollontai's vision to take hold [in Soviet Russia] was the simple yet undeniable fact that the far-reaching and non-traditional nature of her proposals, especially her psycho-sexual ones, conflicted with the priorities of the revolutionary hierarchy'.

3425 Field, K. L. `Aleksandra Kollontai: Precursor of Eurofeminism', Dialectical Anthropology Vol. 6 (1982), No. 3, pp. 229±244. An examination of Kollontai's theoretical contributions to what the author describes as three `focal concerns of contemporary Eurofeminism': the role of domestic labour under capitalism; the implications of the `second shift' for women's status; and the manner in which `familiy life and subjectivity are shaped by economic contraints'.

New York: Longmans, Green & Co., 1947. 309 pp. The author, who resided in Sweden as the Spanish republican government's Plenipotentiary Minister from 1936, knew Kollontai well. Here she presents a very sympathetic, highly impressionistic and partially fictionalized account of her friend's life.

An account of the ideas of Kollontai regarding the history of women's repression, as expressed in a course of lectures she delivered to female party activists at Sverdlov University between April and June 1921. The author argues that the lectures demonstrate `the richness of Kollontai's thought and her then unrivalled historical and anthropological knowledge'.

The author, Krasin's wife, is frustratingly vague and quite uniformed about many aspects of both his career and, even more surprisingly, his character, but the volume (based largely upon Krasin's letters to the author) contains some interesting material relating to the civil war and the economic breakdown of 1917 to 1922.

A discussion of Kollontai's political ideas and fictional writings, which argues that even before her `backtracking' on her ideas during the 1920s, `Kollontai could be said to have shown a conformist streak', both in her acceptance that the Bolshevik cause was inevitably feminist and in her viewing of women's liberation in `producivist' terms (i.e., in promoting equality between the sexes largely in order to increase economic output).

3451 Getzler, I. `Martov's Lenin', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 5 (1992), No. 1, pp. 92±104. An attempt `to use selections from Martov's writings, and some episodes from his running feud with Lenin, as a source for arriving at an understanding of Lenin'. The author notes a certain ambivalence in Lenin's attitude to Martov and the Mensheviks: on the one hand, ridiculing and persecuting them; on the other hand, in serious and perennial argument with them.

Paris: Librairie de l'HumaniteÂ, 1924. 167 pp. The author, a radical French journalist who was a delegate at early congresses of the Comintern and who met Lenin on many occasions, herein presents an uncritical portrait of the Bolshevik leader as a `political genius', a `great social reformer', and a lover of children and classical music. By the time of the publication of his second work on Lenin ± Guilbeaux, H. LeÂnine n'eÂtait pas communiste. Paris: SocieÂteÂ francËaise d'eÂditions litteÂraires et techniques, 1937. 214 pp. ± the author had become a fascist sympathizer, claiming that Europe's only true disciple of Lenin was Mussolini.

London: Martin Lawrence, 1930±1932. 213 + 243 pp. Lenin's widow's stated intention in this often touching account of her personal and professional relationship with the Bolshevik leader was to `give a picture of the conditions in which Vladimir Ilyich lived and worked'.

Studies

3457 Marcu, V. `Lenin in Zurich: A Memoir', Foreign Affairs Vol. 21 (1942±1943), Nos 1±4, pp. 548±559. A vivid and instructive account of the author's discussions with Lenin during the First World War, notable for Marcu's assertion that Lenin by no means welcomed the cataclysm of 1914, no matter how inevitable he assumed the outbreak of an imperialist war to be.

3462 Anderson, K. Lenin, Hegel and Western Marxism. Urbana, IL: University of Illinois Press, 1995. xv + 311 pp. A well-informed and thought-provoking discussion which argues ± in a challenge to those, such as Althusser [3461], who tended to downplay Lenin's Hegelianism ± that Lenin was the originator of the `critical' rather than the `scientific' Marxist tradition.

3458 Valentinov, N. [Volskii, N. V.] Encounters with Lenin (transl. by P. Rosta and B. Pierce; fwd by L. Schapiro). London: Oxford University Press, 1968. xix + 273 pp. These keenly observed memoirs of his meeting with and split with Lenin in the year 1904 ± by the subsequent self-confessedly `bad Menshevik' and, in the 1920s, editor of VSNKh's journal ± concentrate, most unusually, upon the Bolshevik leader as a human being ± noting, for example, his sporting interests and aesthetic tastes ± but present a quite clear and unbiased picture of Lenin's reconstruction of Marxism as a vehicle of absolute faith and of the moment when the Bolsheviks became an independent party. See also Valentinov, N. `Encounters with Lenin', Russian Review Vol. 13 (1954), No. 2, pp. 176±185; Valentinov, N. `LeÂnine philosophe', Contrat social. Vol. 4 (1960), No. 4, pp. 195±204.

3463 Avtorkhanov, A. `Lenin and the Bolshevik Rise to Power', Studies on the Soviet Union Vol. 10 (1970), No. 3, pp. 1±73. The author argues that, contrary to the official Soviet line, Lenin faced considerable opposition within the party in the period April to October 1917. 3464 Becker, F. B. `Lenin's Application of Marx's Theory of Revolutionary Tactics', American Sociological Review Vol. 2 (1937), No. 3, pp. 353±364. An unremarkable but well-written exposition of the development of Marx's notions of the role of human volition within the `inevitable' revolutionary process and of their application by Lenin who, `with all his debt to Marx', in Becker's opinion, `must be regarded as a strategic genius in his own right'. The

designed to emphasize the unity of theory and practice in Leninism as well as the doctrine's continuities with `the old Marxist tradition'.

3465 BesancËon, A. The Rise of the Gulag: The Intellectual Origins of Leninism (transl. by S. Matthews). Oxford: Basil Blackwell, 1981. 329 pp. The author of this work (rather misleadingly entitled by its publisher) traces the intellectual roots of Leninism to the congenital weakness of civil society in Russian in the nineteenth century and the rise of radicalism among the intelligentsia. For BesancËon, as for Solzhenitsyn, Leninism has nothing to do with pure Russian traditions or with science, but is rooted in the `contradictory compound' of faith and reason characteristic of the Russian intelligentsia. He reserves his strongest criticism for Lenin's State and Revolution.

3471 CarreÁre d'Encause, H. LeÂnine. Paris: Fayard, 1998. 684 pp. Heavily indebted to the publications of Volkogonov and Pipes, as the author readily admits, this work of `re-interpretation and re-conceptualization' swims on the recent wave of rather crude antirevisionism, attributing `more than 100 million fatalities' to the reÂgime `established' by its subject. 3472 Chasles, P. La Vie de LeÂnine. Paris: Plon, 1929. 246 pp. A competent popular biography, with significant concentration upon the revolutionary period. 3473 Clemens, W. C. `Lenin on Disarmament', Slavic Review Vol. 23 (1964), No. 3, pp. 504±525. A review of Lenin's views on disarmament and their effect on Soviet policy during his lifetime, in which the author argues that although Lenin's views seemed to change in 1921, they remained consonant with the standard he had laid down in 1916 when Lenin declared that `Every ``peace program'' is a deception of the people and a piece of hypocrisy unless its principal objective is to explain to the masses the need for a revolution, and to support, aid, and develop the revolutionary struggle of the masses'.

3466 Beucler, A. and Alixinsky, G. A. Les Amours secrets de LeÂnine: D'apreÁs les meÂmoires de Lise de K . . . Paris: EÂditions BaudinieÁre, 1937. 247 pp. A controversial volume notable for featuring the tale spread by the eÂmigreÂ denigrator of Bolshevism, G. A. Alixinsky, that Lenin had a long-term love affair with an aristocrat. For a refutation of the story see: McNeal, R. H. `Lenin and ``Lise de K . . .'': A Fabrication', Slavic Review Vol. 28 (1969), No. 3, pp. 471±474. For a response to McNeal, see the letter of F. Dovring in Slavic Review Vol. 29 (1970), No. 4, pp. 570±573. 3467 Le Blanc, P. Lenin and the Revolutionary Party (introd. by E. Mandel). Atlantic Highlands, NJ: Humanities International Press, 1989. xxxiv + 399 pp. A critical and interesting analysis of Lenin's theoretical and tactical thought on the leading role of the party.

3474 Cliff, T. Lenin, 4 vols. London: Pluto Press, 1975±1979. ix + 398 + xii + 412 + x + 230 + xi + 251 pp. A shallow hagiography by a leading British Trotskyist, the main purpose of which seems to be to attempt to blur the differences between Lenin and Trotsky during the revolutionary period. The volumes skate carefully around most events and texts which might challenge the author's position.

3468 Blick, R. The Seeds of Evil: Lenin and the Origins of Bolshevik EÂlitism. London: Ferrington, 1993. xi + 97 pp. A simplistic and crude polemic that supposedly `vindicates Orwell's stand against Bolshevik despotism' and demonstrates Lenin's `unambiguous enthusiasm for Jacobin terrorism and intrigue'.

3475 Cogniot, G. PreÂsence de LeÂnine, 2 vols. Paris: Editions sociales, 1970. 251 + 157 pp. A hagiography, based largely upon uncritical citations and quotations of Lenin's works, on the dubious grounds that `the writings of a man of genius are always more valuable than paraphrases'.

3469 Bruhat, J. LeÂnine. Paris: Club francËais du livre, 1960. 386 pp. A dull hagiography by a French communist, based largely on the Short Course. See also Bruhat, J. LeÂnine, fondateur de l'U.R.S.S. Sa vie et son úuvre. Paris: Editions France±U.R.S.S., 1945. 34 pp.

3476 Colas, D. LeÂnine et le LeÂninisme. Paris: Presses universitaires de France, 1987. 127 pp. A perceptive thematic examination, which pays particular attention to the analysis and explanation of key texts from the Leninist cannon and attempts some revealing psychological dissection.

3470 Bukharin, N. I. Lenin as a Marxist. London: Communist Party of Great Britain, 1925. 64 pp. A discussion of Lenin's thought which was 352

V. I. Lenin . 3487 3477 Conquest, R. V. I. Lenin. New York: Viking Press, 1972. viii + 152 pp. Not a biography, but a critical analysis of the development of Lenin's ideas. The author regards Lenin's role as a revolutionary leader and tactician as absolutely crucial at a series of junctures in the history of the Bolshevik party, but is less positive in his judgement of his theoretical works.

kern). Atlantic Highlands, NJ: Humanities Press International, 1996. ix + 159 pp. The author, an American Trotskyist, examines issue of defeatism in the years 1914 to 1917, claiming that Lenin's slogan was based upon the myth that Marx and Engels would have supported a war against tsarist Russia waged by a bourgeois government, and that far from being a fundamental principle of Leninism, `it was not only not permanent or fundamental, but it was not even a principle'.

3478 Daniels, R. V. `Lenin and the Russian Revolutionary Tradition', Harvard Slavic Studies Vol. 4 (1957), pp. 339±353. The author argues that, while espousing orthodoxy, Lenin `radically transformed his Marxist heritage', and that the transformation was greatly influenced by the ideas of earlier generations of Russian thinkers and revolutionaries, including Petrashevskii, Tkachev, Chaadaev, Herzen, Chernyshevskii, Bakunin and others.

3484 Dutt, R. P. Life and Teachings of V. I. Lenin. New York: International Publishers, 1934. 95 pp. A brief biography of Lenin followed by some reflections, by the American communist author, upon Lenin's `general world outlook', his theories of imperialism and world revolution, the dictatorship of the proletariat, national and colonial movements, and organizational matters. 3485 Eissenstat, B. W. (ed.) Lenin and Leninism: State, Law and Society. Lexington, MA: D. C. Heath and Co., 1971. 322 pp. This collection of articles boasts an impressive field of international contributors, whose essays are classified in five sections: `Lenin, Philosophy and Ideology'; `Lenin, Law and Legality'; `Lenin and Economics'; `Lenin, Myth and Culture'; and `Lenin, Leninism and the Present'.

3479 Deborin, A. M. `Lenin as Philosopher' (transl. by N. I. Iokhel and M. S. Mekler), Journal of World History (Special Number: Studies on Russian History) (1958), pp. 310±335. Its obvious dogmaticisms aside, this is in many ways a helpful and well-informed survey of Lenin's thought. 3480 Deutscher, I. Lenin's Childhood. London: Oxford University Press, 1970. 67 pp. This brilliant first chapter of an intended biography details Lenin's life up to the age of seventeen, providing evidence of the influence upon his turn to revolutionism of his father and elder brother. See also Deutscher, I. `Lenin: The Making of a Revolutionary', Ramparts (August 1970), pp. 38±48. See also Deutscher, I. `The Moral Dilemmas of Lenin', in I. Deutscher Ironies of History: Essays on Contemporary Communism. London: Oxford University Press, 1966. pp. 167±173.

3486 Elwood, R. C. `Lenin and Grammatnikov: An Unpublished and Undeserved Testimonial', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 28 (1986), No. 3, pp. 303± 313. Elwood here documents a character reference (found in the Zhuk Collection of the Public Archives of Canada) which Lenin wrote in 1908 for A. N. Grammatnikov ± `a man who may have been an Okhrana agent before the Revolution and unquestionably was allied with [Lenin's] political opponents from Savinkov on the left to various monarchist groups on the right after 1917'. The author notes that this was, thus, perhaps `the first but . . . certainly not the last time that the Bolshevik leader proved to be a poor judge of political loyalty and of human character'.

3481 Dobb, M. `Lenin', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 19 (1940), pp. 34±54. A brief biographical essay, notable for its admiring tone. 3482 Dobrin, S. `Lenin on Equality and the Webbs on Lenin (Some Notes for the History of Ideas)', Soviet Studies Vol. 8 (1957), No. 4, pp. 337±357. An interesting discussion of differing approaches to the distinction between distribution according to work on the one hand and distribution according to need on the other.

3487 Elwood, R. C. `The Malinovskii Affair: ``A Very Fishy Business'' ', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 11 (1998), pp. 1±16. An examination of the theories advanced by Western writers to explain Roman Malinovskii's resignation from the Duma in May 1914 and Lenin's subsequent defences of him in the face of charges that Malinovskii was an Okhrana spy. The author finds no evidence in documents recently published in

3483 Draper, H. War and Revolution: Lenin and the Myth of Revolutionary Defeatism (ed. by E. Haber353

3488 . 19 The Bolsheviks Russia to support the suggestion that Malinovskii was a double agent (acting in the first instance for the Bolsheviks) or that Lenin knew he worked for the police and covered it up to protect his own reputation. Rather, he concludes that in this and in other instances Lenin was simply `a poor judge of character'.

3490 Erickson, J. `Lenin as a Civil War Leader', in L. Schapiro and P. Reddaway (eds) Lenin: the Man, the Theorist, the Leader: A Reappraisal. New York: Praeger, 1967. pp. 159±186. The author presents Lenin as military leader of remarkable flexibility: `a man and machine, ideas and action, strategic insight and political outlook, administrative supervision and political control all rolled into one.'

3488 Elwood, R. C. `Lenin's Testimony to the Extraordinary Investigatory Commission', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 41 (1999), Nos 3±4, pp. 259±271. A fascinating discussion of the background and content of the nine-page deposition and subsequent testimony Lenin gave to the Provisional Government's Extraordinary Investigating Commission on 26 May 1917, in particular the `embarrassing admissions' Lenin made regarding his misguided defence of Roman Malinovskii in 1914 against rumours that he was a police agent. The versions of the testimony published in Russia in the early 1990s and by Richard Pipes in 1996 (see Pipes [207]), notes Elwood, were different, the latter not including a phrase relating to Lenin's wartime correspondence with Malinovskii, an apparent omission which Pipes had suggested was evidence of Lenin's disingenuousness. When Elwood had earlier pointed out the unsoundness of such a conclusion, in the light of the Russian-published versions, Pipes had responded with the threat of legal action (see Elwood [3487]). But now Elwood has uncovered the original handwritten document, which includes Lenin's reference to his wartime correspondence with Malinovskii, which leads him to the conclusion that although Pipes was not guilty of deliberately distorting source materials, `he was careless or sloppy in his use of archival documents', having relied on a copy rather than the original for his 1996 publication.

3491 FigueÁres, L. LeÂnine et la social-deÂmocratie: sa nature et son roÃle historique. Paris: Institut Maurice Thorez, 1969. 31 pp. 3492 Fischer, L. The Life of Lenin. New York: Harper and Row, 1964. xii + 703 pp. Although far from the scholarly and comprehensive biography it had ambitions to be, in its day this distinguished if haphazardly organized effort, which made substantial use of published Soviet sources, constituted one of the best surveys of the man's life to have been published in the West. The work generally portrays Lenin in a positive light, but is rather sketchy on the year 1917. The author was a noted newspaper correspondent who lived in Soviet Russia during the 1920s and 1930s. 3493 Fox, R. Lenin: A Biography. London: Victor Gollancz, 1933. 320 pp. A generally admiring although almost totally unremarkable popular biography in which the author remarks that `perhaps history will record [Lenin] not as the leader of the Russian Revolution, for that would have happened without him, but as the creator of a new kind of political life, a new kind of party'. 3494 Frankel, J. `Lenin's Doctrinal Revolution of April 1917', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 4 (1969), No. 2, pp. 117±142. The author's notes that the April Theses' abandonment of the Bolsheviks' commitment to `the revolutionary democratic dictatorship of the proletariat and the peasantry', in favour of a formula invoking the alliance of `the proletariat and the poorest peasantry', played `no positive role in the planning and strategy of the revolution' of October 1917, when the party identified itself with peasant demands for total land redistribution.

3489 Ennker, B. `The Origins and Intentions of the Lenin Cult', in I. D. Thatcher (ed.) Regime and Society in Twentieth-Century Russia: Selected Papers from the Fifth World Congress of Central and East European Studies, Warsaw, 1995. London: Macmillan, 1999. pp. 118±128. Utilizing newly available materials from the Russian archives, the author argues that the Lenin cult `cannot be explained as the product of long-term planning by Stalin, nor can it be interpreted as an appeal to popular Russian Orthodox traditions or as a fanatical sectarian resurrection project'. In fact, it originated from a decision-making process `in which Dzerzhinsky exercised a firm guiding hand'. For the author's more fully developed thesis see Ennker, B. Die AnfaÈnge des Leninkults in der Sowjetunion. Cologne/Weimar/Vienna: BoÈhlau Verlag, 1997. viii + 381 pp.

3495 Freymond, J. LeÂnine et l'impeÂrialisme. Lausanne: Payot, 1951. 134 pp. A usefully succinct critical study of Lenin's writings on the nature and causes of imperialism, especially Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism (which the author finds to be largely unconvincing). The volume is based upon a series of lectures 354

V. I. Lenin . 3506 delivered by Freymond at Geneva's Institut Universitaire des Hautes Etudes.

3501 Geyer, D. Lenin in der russischen Sozialdemokratie. Cologne/Graz: BoÈhlau Verlag, 1962. xxvi + 447 pp. Utilizing a formidable array of sources, in nine roughly chronological chapters the author examines the ideological and organizational contributions of Lenin to the Social Democratic movement, arguing that with regard to the latter Lenin's thought was more influenced by the methods of the Russian police and the bureaucratic state than by, for example, Babeuf. At the time of its publication this volume provided the most detailed coverage of its subject available.

3496 FuÈloÈp-Miller, R. Lenin and Ghandi (transl. by F. S. Flint and D. F. Tait). London: G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1927. xi + 343 pp. A simplistic parallel biography of two men `who in different ways undertook the heroic and at the same time adventurous experiment of putting into practice the long cherished dream of humanity'. 3497 Garaudy, R. LeÂnine. Paris: Presses universitaires de France, 1968. 112 pp. This erudite study of Lenin as a political philosopher includes particularly detailed coverage (pp. 39±66) of his published works during the period 1914 to 1923.

3502 Gignoux, C. J. LeÂnine. Paris: Les IÃles d'Or, 1952. 219 pp. A good popular biography which gives ample coverage to Lenin's thought as well as to his political and private lives. Appended are a bibliographic note and an essay on `The Historical Method in the USSR'.

3498 Gautschi, W. Lenin als Emigrant in der Schweiz. ZuÈrich/Cologne: Benziger Verlag, 1973. 383 pp. A detailed account of Lenin's wartime exile in Switzerland, including coverage of his part in the socialist conferences at Bern, Zimmerwald, and Kienthal, his reactions to the February Revolution and writing of the `Letters from Afar', and the planning of his return to Russia via Germany. The work is based upon an impressive array of archival sources (most of them in Switzerland) and published materials.

3503 Gourfinkel, N. LeÂnine. Paris: Editions du Seuil, 1959. 192 pp. A brief admiring introduction to Lenin's life and works, intended for a non-specialist readership. 3504 Gurian, W. `Lenins Methoden der Machteroberung im Jahre 1917', in W. Conze (ed.) Deutschland und Europa. Festschrift fuÈr Hans Rothfels. DuÈsseldorf: Droste-Verlag, 1951, pp. 271±291. A generally unremarkable essay considering Lenin's views on war, imperialism, party organization and the dictatorship of the proletariat, as revealed in his writings and activities in 1917.

3499 De George, R. T. `Lenin and the Party', in R. T. De George Patterns of Soviet Thought. Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press, 1966. pp. 128±145. An investigation of Lenin's writings on the role of the party in revolution and in the building of the state, concluding that their emphasis on voluntarism and centralism represent a major revision of Marxism.

3500 Getzler, I. `Lenin's Conception of Revolution as Civil War', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 74 (1996), No. 3, pp. 464±672. Examining some of Lenin's private drafts and jottings, particularly those of 1905 to 1906 and 1919, the author argues that the evidence suggests that Lenin was both much more of an internationalist of Trotsky's type than has generally been assumed, as well as being even more of a ruthless state terrorist than has been believed. The article was reproduced in I. D. Thatcher (ed.) Regime and Society in TwentiethCentury Russia: Selected Papers from the Fifth World Congress of Central and East European Studies, Warsaw, 1995. London: Macmillan, 1999. pp. 107± 117.

Lenin's Political Thought, Vol. 2: Theory and Practice in the Socialist Revolution. London: Macmillan, 1981. 387 pp. An elegant argument for Lenin to be taken seriously as a Marxist theoretician of remarkable consistency and as `an extraordinary doctrinaire politician'. The author maintains that only toward the end of his life, in the years of the civil war, did Lenin become anything like the `Jacobin' his critics had accused him of being twenty years earlier, and is particularly illuminating on Lenin's views of the state 355

3511 Jackson, G. D. `Lenin and the Problem of Psychohistory', Canadian Slavonic Papers Vol. 19 (1977), No. 2, pp. 207±222. Around a commentary on another article in this volume ± S. W. Page `Lenin, Turgenev and the Russian Landed Gentry' ± the author explores some of the difficulties faced by biographers when attempting to understand `Lenin, the man'. 3512 Jackson, G. D. `The Influence of the French Revolution on Lenin's Conception of the Russian Revolution', in G. M. Schwab and J. R. Jeanneney (eds) The French Revolution of 1789 and Its Impact. London: Greenwood Press, 1995. pp. 273±284. In response to John Keep's assertion [in 908] that Lenin viewed the events of 1789 to 1794 solely through the prism of Marx, the author argues that Lenin's sources were far broader and that his conceptions of events in France were very significant in `shaping and conditioning his own views of the proper course of action in attempting to seize and maintain power in Russia'.

3507 Haupt, G. C. `Guerre et reÂvolution chez LeÂnine', Revue francËaise de science politique Vol. 21 (1971), No. 2, pp. 256±281. A precise account of the development of Lenin's thought on the nature of the relationship between war and revolution, in which the Marxist author argues that Lenin's approach `was concrete, his theoretical thinking neither proceeded nor postulated action, but organized that action in precise historical situations'. See also Haupt, G. `Lenin, the Bolsheviks and the Second International', in G. Haupt Aspects of International Socialism, 1871±1914: Essays (transl. by P. Fawcett; fwd. by E. Hobsbawm).

3513 Jordan, Z. A. `The Dialectical Materialism of Lenin', Slavic Review Vol. 25 (1966), No. 2, pp. 259± 286. An investigation of how Lenin, despite his own assertions to the contrary, modified Engels's philosophy of Marxism to suit the requirements of his own time and, in particular, to suit his own concept of class struggle.

3508 Hill, C. Lenin and the Russian Revolution. London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1947. 245 pp. A very favourable, widely read and much republished introduction to Lenin's political career by an English Marxist historian sympathetic to Lenin both as a man and as a politician. However, Hill's perceptions of Lenin are simplistic and frequently altogether misleading.

3514 Joubert, J. P. `LeÂnine et le Jacobinisme', Cahiers LeÂon Trotsky Vol. 30 (1987), pp. 31±48. An interesting analysis, focusing on the controversies involving Lenin, Trotsky, Plekhanov and Rosa Luxemburg which culminated in the party schism of 1903. The author concludes that the `Jacobinism' often attributed to Lenin by the Mensheviks (and later by Trotsky) was more apparent than real in terms of Lenin's general theoretical concepts.

3509 Hollis, C. Lenin: Portrait of a Professional Revolutionary. London: Longmans, Green and Co., 1938. 285 pp. A useful survey of Lenin's career, stressing the influence upon his thought, temperament and policies of the radical, fanatical, conspiratorial tradition of the Russian revolutionaries of the late nineteenth century.

3515 Kautsky, K. `Lenin and the Russian Revolution of 1917', in Social Democracy Versus Communism. New York: Rand School Press, 1946, pp. 56± 66. Reproduced in translation here is Kautsky's attack on Lenin as a dictator whose `aim in the Russian revolution was to destroy not only all organs of self-administration, but also all other parties and socialist organizations except his own'.

3510 HoÈlzle, E. Lenin 1917. Die Geburt der Revolution aus dem Kriege. Munich: R. Oldenburg, 1957. 96 pp. Avowedly an attempt to popularize historical knowledge about Lenin, this study is not footnoted or referenced, although it cites Lenin extensively and has a brief bibliographical postscript. The volume is remarkable only for the reticence of its judgements, given the author's own right-wing opinions.

V. I. Lenin . 3527 Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 326±361. An introduction to the database of some 1,500 actions Lenin is known to have taken between 25 October 1917 and 10 March 1918, which the author compiled from historical and memoir literature and, primarily, from the vast compendium of information to be found in Golikov, G. N. (ed.) Vladimir Ilich Lenin: biograficheskaia khronika, 13 vols. Moscow: Politizdat, 1970±1982.

3521 Landau-Aldanov, M. A. Lenin. New York: Dutton and Co., 1922. 242 pp. An almost unrelentingly critical analysis of Lenin's writings and activities by a Russian socialist writer in exile. See also Landau-Aldanov, M. A. Lenin und der Bolschewismus. Berlin: Ullstein, 1920. 266 pp. 3522 Lane, D. Leninism: A Sociological Interpretation. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1981. x + 150 pp. An pro-Leninist attempt to provide a theoretical model of revolutionary change based upon a synthesis of Leninism and the sociology of Talcott Parsons. Following Meyer [3534] and others, the author also argues that Lenin adapted Marxism for Russian conditions by incorporating into it elements of narodnichestvo. The work is also useful for its discussion of the range of scholarly standpoints on Lenin and Leninism.

3517 Kingston-Mann, E. Lenin and the Problem of Marxist Peasant Revolution. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1983. x + 237 pp. A chronological survey of the evolution of Lenin's attempts from the late 1890s through 1917 to include the Russian peasantry in the Marxist revolutionary framework. Of particular interest are the later chapters, wherein the author contrasts Lenin's determination to include the active participation of the peasantry in the revolutionary movement with the Mensheviks' dogmatism, economic determinism and fear of peasant activism.

3523 Laver, J. Lenin: Liberator or Oppressor? London: Hodder & Stoughton, 1994. 118 pp. A survey aimed at the undergraduate market, including a final chapter outlining the evolving trends of the Western and Soviet historiography of Lenin.

3518 Kolakowski, L. `The Fortunes of Leninism: From a Theory of the State to a State Ideology', in Main Currents of Marxism: Its Rise, Growth and Dissolution ± Vol. 2, The Golden Age. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1978. pp. 467±528. Most attention is given by the author in this chapter to those aspects of Lenin's thought in the years 1917 to 1921 which determined the totalitarian character of the Soviet state.

3524 Lefebvre, H. La PenseÂe de LeÂnine. Paris: Bordas, 1957. 357 pp. An admiring exposition of Lenin's political ideas by the noted French Marxist and philosopher, arguing that he was one of the most original thinkers of this or any other age. 3525 Levine, I. D. The Man Lenin. New York: Seltzer, 1924, 207 pp. A interesting early study, notable for its emphasis on Lenin's activities in 1917 and 1918 and upon the refinements of Marxism made by Lenin. From this work the Bolshevik leader emerges as a modest man, devoid of egoism and totally devoted to the cause of the revolution.

3519 Kropat, W.-A. `Lenin und die Konstituierende Versammlung in Russland', JahrbuÈ cher fuÈ r Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 5 (1957), No. 4, pp. 488±498. A brief, conventional review of Lenin's attitude to the Constituent Assembly and to the notion of representative government, based upon his Collected Works and other standard published sources.

3526 LukacÂs, G. Lenin: A Study on the Unity of His Thought (transl. by N. Jacobs). Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1971. 104 pp. In this slim volume, originally produced in 1924, the author made one of the first attempts to evaluate the essentials of the teachings of Lenin, and emphasizes Lenin's capacity to articulate abstract theory and to apply it in his day-to-day political practice.

3520 Laloy, J. Le Socialisme de LeÂnine. Bruges: DescleÂe de Brower, 1967. 317 pp. A scholarly analysis of Lenin's political ideas, regarded by the author as not being particularly original and concluding that the failure of the revolution to spread to the rest of Europe signified the redundancy of Leninism as a political philosophy. For an appreciative review of this volume, claiming that it presents `the most intelligent account [yet] of the man and the seven years in which he was the most efficacious actor on the political stage', see Pascale, P. `Le socialisme de LeÂnine', Contrat social Vol. 12 (1968), No. 1, pp. 13±16.

3527 McNeal, R. H. Bride of the Revolution: Krupskaya and Lenin. Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press, 1973. ix + 326 pp. An uncontroversial but stylishly and humorously 357

3528 . 19 The Bolsheviks written portrait of Lenin's relationship with his wife, based largely upon Russian-language materials published in the Soviet Union. This volume succeeds in bringing to life not only Krupskaia but also the characters of Lenin and Inessa Armand. See also McNeal, R. H. `Krupskaya: The Feminine Subcult', in B. W. Eissenstat (ed.) Lenin and Leninism: State, Law and Society. Lexington, MA: D. C. Heath and Co., 1971. pp. 219±227.

3534 Meyer, A. G. Leninism. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1957. 324 pp. A scholarly and critical study of Lenin's thoughts and actions, describing Leninism as combining `doctrinaire rigidity with opportunistic adaptability' and concluding that Lenin's faith in organization and centralization ignored the human fallibilities of party leaders and betrayed his own pessimistic estimation of the creative and self-organizational abilities of the working class. The volume is notable as a rare example of an American cold war-era work on the subject which treats Leninism as something more than merely a means to gain and keep power.

3528 Malaparte, C. Le Bonhomme LeÂnine (transl. by J. Bertrand). Paris: EÂditions Bernard Granet, 1930. xiii + 385 pp. A hostile portrait of Lenin as `a doctrinaire petitbourgeois', in whom a distaste for political action combined with an absolute confidence in the power of the pen. The work appeared originally in Mussolini's Italy as Intelligenza di Lenin.

3535 Mieli, R. `Lenin and the Revolution', Problems of Communism Vol. 16 (1967), No. 6, pp. 71±76. The author, formerly a high-ranking member of the Italian Communist Party, argues that `the history of communism's birth and successful establishment in Russia [can] be reduced to the sole dimension of the man who was its principal architect ± Vladimir Ilich Lenin'.

3529 Marabini, J. L'EÂtincelle, LeÂnine, organisateur de la reÂvolution russe. Paris: Arthaud, 1962. 416 pp. A popular biography, littered with factual errors. 3530 Marcu, V. Lenin: Thirty Years of Russia. New York: Macmillan, 1928. 397 pp. An energetically written and well-proportioned early biography which shuns analysis of Lenin's thought in favour of an episodic and sometimes sensationalist recreation of his career.

3536 Mirsky, D. S. Lenin. Boston: Little, Brown and Co., 1931. 236 pp. A generally sympathetic account of Lenin's life by an eÂmigreÂ White officer turned Marxist. On the author see Lavroukine, N. and Tchertkov, L. D. S. Mirsky. Profil critique et bibliographique. Paris: Institut d'EÂtudes Slaves, 1980. 109 pp.

3531 Maxton, J. Lenin. London: Peter Davies Ltd., 1932. 183 pp. An uncritical eulogy, in the form of a popular biography, by a member of parliament and leading figure of the British Independent Labour Party.

3537 Morgan, M. Lenin. London: Edward Arnold, 1971. 236 pp. A general and fairly objective introductory account, based upon English-language sources, which argues that Lenin's aim was to `create a saner, healthier, better world', and that, for all his ruthlessness, Lenin was `essentially a constructive, not a destructive personality'. The volume concentrates in particular upon the years 1917 to 1921.

3532 Mayer, R. `Lenin and the Jacobin Identity in Russia', Studies in East European Thought Vol. 51 (1999), No. 2, pp. 127±154. The author contends that Jacobin identity among Russian revolutionaries of the late nineteenth century was invented as a construct by anti-Jacobin populists and that, contrary to commonly held conceptions of Tkachev and others, `there were scarcely any selfproclaimed Jacobins prior to Lenin'.

3538 Myakotin, V. `Lenin (1870±1924)', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 2 (1923±1924), pp. 465±486. A lengthy obituary in which the author, a leading member of the Popular Socialists, provides a potted biography of the Bolshevik leader and offers the opinion that `Lenin, of course, was not a great man in any respect', but was, nevertheless, `the incarnation of certain characteristics features of Russian life' ± notably the conspiratorial existence of opposition to tsarism and the lack of civilization and organization in the Russian masses.

3533 Menashe, L. `Vladimir Illyich Bakunin: An Essay on Lenin', Socialist Revolution Vol. 18 (1973), pp. 9±54. A polemical portrait of Leninism as `a practical movement' inspired by a `democratic vision' far from the `bureaucratic-cadre structures of Stalinist practice' and `operating in a political space conditioned by the society, economy, and culture of Romanov Russia'.

potential of the peasantry, the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. 3546 Plamenatz, J. German Marxism and Russian Communism. London: Longmans, Green and Co., 1954. xiii + 356 pp. An erudite and influential critique of Marxist theory, together with an explanation and description of the triumph of communism in Russia. The author contends that Lenin's importance lies in his achievements as `a practical politician' and that he was not `an important thinker'.

3540 Ossendowski, F. Lenin: God of the Godless. London: Constable & Co., 1931. 409 pp. A sensationalized semi-fictional biography by the notorious Polish writer and adventurer who may have had a hand in the `Sisson Documents' affair. 3541 Page, S. W. (ed.) Lenin: Dedicated Marxist or Pragmatic Revolutionary? Lexington, MA: D. C. Heath, 1970. 113 pp. This collection includes sixteen contributions by Western and Soviet authors presenting conflicting or contrasting opinions of Lenin as a theorist, a revolutionary, and a political leader.

3547 Possony, S. T. Lenin: The Compulsive Revolutionary. Chicago: Henry Regnery, 1963. xvi + 418 pp. An uneven work, overly concerned with exposing the conspiratorial and destructive aspects of Lenin's political career and never quite establishing convincingly that the psychological trait of `compulsiveness' offers a sound basis for understanding Lenin.

3542 Payne, R. The Life and Death of Lenin. New York: Simon and Schuster, 1964. 672 pp. A popular biography, tending towards the superficial and the sensational, if very well-written, which concentrates upon `Lenin the man'. For Payne, Lenin's motivation can be reduced to his Asiatic ancestry (an atavistic urge to destroy) plus Nechaevism; Marxist theory is virtually ignored.

3548 von Rauch, G. Lenin: Grundlegung des Sowjetsystems. GoÈttingen: Musterschmidt Verlag, 1957. 101 pp. An almost unremittingly hostile treatment of Lenin's life and achievements. For the author, Lenin was a `demoniacal' figure who plunged his country into an epoch of technological development but who, in the process, destroyed the roots of civilization in Russia and ruptured the country's great European tradition.

3543 Pearce, B. `Lenin versus Trotsky on ``Revolutionary Defeatism'' ', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 13 (1987), pp. 16±30. In this thoughtful piece the author argues that, with regard to their dispute over whether Russia's military defeat in the Great War was desirable as a means of expediting the revolution, Lenin seems `tacitly to have agreed with Trotsky in the end'. See also Pearce, B. `Lenin and Trotsky on Pacifism and Defeatism', Labour Review (Spring 1961).

3549 Rice, C. Lenin: Portrait of a Professional Revolutionary London: Cassell, 1990. 208 pp. An unremarkable popular biography, concentrating on both Lenin's personal and political life. 3550 Roberts, J. W. `Lenin's Theory of Imperialism in Soviet Usage', Soviet Studies Vol. 29 (1977), No. 3, pp. 353±372. An examination of what the term `Imperialism' meant to Lenin and of what his followers made of his definition (notably M. N. Roy, during the debates on the subject during the Second Congress of the Comintern in 1920).

3544 Pianzola, M. LeÂnine en Suisse (pref. by A. Bonnard). Geneva: La Librairie nouvelle, 1952. 228 pp. An account of Lenin's wartime exile in Switzerland, sympathetic to its subject and drawn largely from Lenin's own writings. 3545 Pipes, R. E. `The Origins of Bolshevism: The Intellectual Development of the Young Lenin', in R. Pipes (ed.) Revolutionary Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 26±62. Focusing on the years 1897 to 1900, and on the question of the relationship between socialism and democracy, the author traces the evolution of Lenin's political thought from his youthful sympathies for the People's Will to his formulation of the basic principles of Bolshevism. Pipes argues that during this period Lenin lost faith in the revolutionary

3551 Schapiro, L. and Reddaway, P. (eds) Lenin: The Man, the Theorist, the Leader: A Reappraisal. New York: Praeger, 1967. 317 pp. A collection of twelve essays by an international field of Lenin scholars which assess Lenin as a philosopher, tactician, civil-war leader and economist, and analyse him in connection with the intelligentsia, the arts, Marxism, religion, the peasants, law and the nationalities question. See also 359

unusual in that the author concentrates upon Lenin's childhood and youth and, in particular, stresses the deep influence upon the young student of Chernyshevskii's eÂlitist message.

3552 Serge, V. `Lenin in 1917', Revolutionary History Vol. 5 (1994), No. 3, pp. 3±53. A rather surprisingly eulogistic piece ± a glowing portrait of its subject as exhibiting `complete harmony between intelligence' ± which grew out of Serge's study of Lenin's writings of 1917 during his translation of the first edition of the Collected Works into French. The piece is extensively annotated by the editors and endorsed by them as `a very useful primer in basic Leninism'. Originally published as Serge, V. LeÂnine, 1917. Paris: Librairie du travail, 1924. 70 pp.

3557 Trotsky, L. D. Lenin: Notes for a Biographer (introd. by B. D. Wolfe). New York: Putnam, 1971. 224 pp. The first two parts of this work, hastily assembled by Trotsky after Lenin's death, consist of studies of Lenin's theoretical and political activity before and after 1917. The third part consists of seven essays, speeches and articles dealing with Lenin's national characteristics, a critique of H. G. Wells's characterization of Lenin and a critique of Maxim Gorky's On Lenin's Portrait, a discussion of a collection of children's writings about Lenin and essays on Lenin's wounding, illness and death. The introduction provides information on the writing of the book and on Lenin's relations with Trotsky.

3553 Service, R. Lenin: A Political Life, Vol. 1: The Strengths of Contradiction. London: Macmillan, 1985. x + 246 pp. Service, R. Lenin: A Political Life, Vol. 2: Worlds in Collision. London: Macmillan, 1991. xxi + 422 + pp. Service, R. Lenin: A Political Life, Vol. 3: The Iron Ring. London: Macmillan, 1995. xxi + 393 pp. The fullest and the best political biography currently available, and likely to remain so for many years to come, these three volumes are scrupulously researched (in part, in the case of the last volume, drawing upon materials from the Russian archives) and commendably balanced. The bulk of the text is concerned with Lenin's personal and party affairs, and his experience of and contribution to practical politics.

3558 Valentinov, N. [Volskii, N. ] The Early Years of Lenin (transl. and ed. by R. H. W. Theen; introd. by B. D. Wolfe). Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press, 1969. xvii + 302 pp. A rather speculative analysis of how Lenin's family, home and literary favourites might have influenced his intellectual and personal development. 3559 Veale, F. J. P. The Man from the Volga: A Life of Lenin (introd. by E. B. Osbourne). London: Constable, 1932. xv + 288 pp. A hostile, badly dated account of the life of `the scourge of God'. In the words of E. B. Osbourne, `As Mr Veale explains, Lenin had an Oriental contempt for the value put on human life by Occidental opinion. It was not necessary to scratch him to find the Tartar.'

3554 Shub, D. Lenin: A Biography. Garden City, NY: Doubleday, 1948. 438 pp. In its day the most accomplished and detailed treatment of Lenin's life to have appeared in the West, this political and personal biography, by a Menshevik who knew Lenin well, still ranks among the best of such works. However, at times the author seems to have relied as much upon gossip as he did upon authentic sources of information.

3560 Vernadsky, G. Lenin: Red Dictator (transl. by M. W. Davis). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1931. vii + 351 pp. A poorly researched, general political biography, rather light on its coverage of Lenin's theoretical work but heavy in its coverage of the revolutionary period, in which the noted eÂmigreÂ author found it impossible to disguise or overcome his distaste for his subject ± a man of `great political valor', but one who was `at the same time fanatic and opportunist'.

3555 Shukman, H. Lenin and the Russian Revolution. London: Batesford, 1966. 224 pp. Although Lenin is the central figure, this volume covers the development of the revolutionary movement in Russia and the political events down to and including the October Revolution in the manner of a general history.

3561 Volkogonov, D. A. Lenin: Life and Legacy (transl. and ed. by H. Shukman). London: HarperCollins, 1994. xxxix + 529 pp. A fluid and accurate abridged translation of an influential two-volume Russian text by a former Soviet general. Portraying the Bolshevik leader as

V. I. Lenin . 3571 depraved and virtually demented in his pursuit and exercise of power, the aim of the work was to debunk the Soviet legend of Lenin through what some critics of the work denounced as `muck±raking', and through demonstrating that Stalin and his system were derived directly from the theories and practices of a `Russian Jacobin' who was `the source of the totalitarian ideology of intolerance' in the first years of Soviet power. As such, four-fifths of the work is devoted to the period 1917 to 1924. For critiques of the work see BroueÂ, P. `Volkogonov's Lenin', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Historische Kommunismusforschung (1995), pp. 201±207; and Siegal, P. N. `General Volkogonov's Biography of Lenin', Science and Society Vol. 59 (1995), No. 3, pp. 402±417.

In this highly polemical (if lively) text ± likely to confuse profoundly anyone not already familiar with the issues at stake ± the author argues that Lenin `leaned on early Marxism to the virtual exclusion of the later body of Marx's thought' and that he fused `primitive Marxism' with certain elements of the primitive Russian revolutionary tradition. Through every line Lenin wrote, alleges Wolfe, `runs a single, consistent threat of terrible simplification and scientific organization of terror'. 3568 Wolfe, B. D. `Lenin and Inessa Armand', Slavic Review Vol. 22 (1963), No. 1, pp. 96±114. An examination of the revolutionary and personal relations of Lenin and Inessa Armand, based upon his letters to her of the war years included in the fourth edition of the Collected Works and on the reminiscences of Krupskaia and Angelica Balabanoff (the latter communicated to the author in personal interviews) and including the claim, which Wolfe rejects, that Lenin and Inessa had a child together.

3562 Walter, G. LeÂnine. Paris: Julliard, 1950. 543 pp. A still useful objective study, based upon a very wide range of contemporary sources, which concentrates on Lenin's life down to the October Revolution. The volume includes an excellent bibliography. 3563 Warth, R. D. Lenin. New York: Twayne, 1973. 198 pp. A short, well-written and generally non-judgemental biography. See also Warth, R. D. `Lenin: The Western Image Forty Years After', Antioch Review Vol. 24 (1964±1965), No. 4, pp. 530±537.

3569 Wolfe, B. D. The Bridge and the Abyss: The Troubled Friendship of Maxim Gorky and V. I. Lenin. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1967. x + 180 pp. In this interesting (if unremittingly anti-Lenin) work the author stresses the mutual admiration of Lenin and Gorky, while discussing their differences in temperament and their differing attitudes to politics and culture. In the epilogue Wolfe discusses and contrasts Gorky's three portraits of Lenin (written in 1917±1918, 1920 and 1924).

3564 Williams, B. Lenin. London: Longman, 2000. viii + 232 pp. Concentrating on the years 1917 to 1924, this `profile in power' provides a concise and readable synthesis of the most recent Western historiography on Lenin as the head of the early Soviet state.

3570 Wolfenstein, E. V. `Lenin: Revolution Equals Death', in Violence or Nonviolence: A Psychoanalytic Exploration of the Choice of Political Means in Social Change. Princeton, NJ: Center of International Studies, 1965. pp. 31±40. An analysis of Lenin's personality as a source of his commitment to violence, dwelling upon the influence of the deaths of his brother and father upon him. For a critical assessment of this work, see Weinstein, F. and Platt, G. `The Coming Crisis in Psychohistory', Journal of Modern History Vol. 47 (1975), No. 2, pp. 202±228.

3565 Wolfe, B. D. `Lenin and the Agent Provocateur Malinovsky', Russian Review Vol. 5 (1945), No. 1, pp. 49±69. An account of the Malinovskii affair and of Lenin's dealings with Malinovskii, rendered obsolete by later publications on the subject. 3566 Wolfe, B. ` ``War Is the Womb of Revolution'': Lenin ``Consults'' Hegel', Antioch Review Vol. 16 (1956), pp. 190±197. A scanty study which is more concerned with ongoing events in China and Vietnam than it is with Lenin. Wolfe's main contention is that, in contrast to Marx and Engels, who had been profoundly disquieted by their `prophetic glimpse' of a `total' European war, `Lenin turned his face into the apocalyptic storm with confidence and expectation'.

3571 Wolin, S. `Perspectives on Lenin's Organizational Theory', in A. Simirenko Soviet Sociology: Historical Antecedents and Current Appraisals. Chicago: Quadrangle Books, 1966. pp. 100±115. An analysis of Lenin's assertion of the value of political organization and its elitist connotations.

Boulder, CO: Westview Press, 1992. xii + 244 pp. This, the first full and scholarly biography of Litvinov to be published in the West, contains only two rather short chapters on its subject's experiences in Britain during the First World War, his repatriation to Russia and his diplomatic activity during the civil-war years. See also Phillips, H. `From a Bolshevik to a British Subject: The Early Years of Maksim M. Litvinov', Slavic Review Vol. 48 (1989), No. 3, pp. 388±398.

3573 Pope, A. U. Maxim Litvinoff. New York: L. B. Fischer, 1943. xi + 530 pp. A popular admiring biography, which has relatively little to say about Litvinov's career during the years of revolution and civil war.

3579 von Szeliski, J. J. `Lunacharsky and the Rescue of Soviet Theatre', Educational Theatre Review Vol. 18 (1966), No. 4, pp. 412±420. A sympathetic note on Lunacharskii's career as Commissar for Enlightenment, arguing that although `he could not transcend all the artistic crippling inherent in his own Communism . . . without him Soviet drama might have been inundated with nothing but violent artistic radicalism', as well as dwelling upon Lunacharskii's own creative output.

An interesting and scholarly exposition, elucidating the background of Lunacharskii's conflicts with Lenin prior to 1909, and focusing upon his relationship with Bogdanov, as well as the hedonistic origins of his early thought.

3580 Tait, A. L. `Lunacharsky: The ``Poet Commissar'' ', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 52 (1974), pp. 234±251.

Berlin: Ernst Kuhn, 1993. 157 pp. A usefully annotated collection of the six letters sent to Lunacharskii by Vladimir Korolenko from June to September 1920, as well as writings and speeches by Lunacharskii from the period 1918 to 1926 in which he argues with the works and beliefs of Korolenko. The letters are harshly critical of the repressiveness of the Soviet system and contain a wealth of eyewitness accounts of conditions during the civil-war period.

3588 Pawel, E. `Karl Radek: A Forgotten Pillar of Bolshevism', Midstream Vol. 18 (1972), No. 5, pp. 33±45. An amusing and robustly sympathetic account of the career of `Moscow's rumor-monger-in-Chief, quipster, life of the Party and professional enfant terrible'.

An interesting, if somewhat sparsely referenced, review of Piatakov's life, detailing his roles in the Left Bolshevik movement of 1918 and the Military Opposition of the following year and examining his later treatment at the hands of Soviet historians. On Piatakov's subsequent career, See also Graziosi, A. `Building the First System of State Industry in History: Piatakov's VSNKh and the Crisis of NEP, 1923±1926', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 32 (1991), No. 4, pp. 539±580.

3589 Schurer, H. `Radek and the German Revolution', Survey No. 53 (1964), pp. 59±69. A useful brief biography of Radek, concentrating upon his pre-revolutionary career in Germany, Poland and Russia prior to January 1919. For a critique of Schurer's analysis see BroueÂ, P. `Note sur l'action de Karl Radek jusqu'en 1923', Annales: eÂconomies, socieÂtieÂs, civilisations Vol. 21 (1966), No. 3, pp. 681±690.

K. RADEK

3590 Tuck, J. Engine of Mischief: An Analytical Biography of Karl Radek. London: Greenwood, 1988. xi + 207 pp. A first-rate scholarly biography. However, Radek's career during the revolutionary years receives comparatively scant coverage (pp. 33±74).

3584 Goldbach, M.-L. Karl Radek und die deutsche± sowetischen Beziehung, 1918±1923. Bonn/Bad Godesberg: Verlag neue Gesellschaft, 1973. 163 pp. A brief but well-informed account of Radek's part in forming Soviet relations with and attitudes to German communism, from the Spartacist rising of January 1919 to the `German October' of 1923. Included in the volume is an excellent bibliography.

K. G. RAKOVSKI 3591 BroueÂ, P. Rakovsky ou la ReÂvolution dans tous les pays. Paris: Fayard, 1996. 459 pp. A detailed study of Rakovski's life and thought by the noted French student of Trotskyism.

3585 Legters, L. H. `Karl Radek als Sprachrohr des Bolschewismus', Forschungen zur osteuropaÈischen Geschichte, Vol. 7 (1959), pp. 196±322. Includes lengthy coverage of Radek's role in propagating revolutionary agitation in Germany in 1918 and of his subsequent relations with the KPD. Appended is a good bibliography of books and articles by and about Radek.

3592 Clark, C. U. `Rakovsky's Rumanian Career', in Bessarabia: Russia and Rumania on the Black Sea. New York: Dodd, Mead & Co., 1927, pp. 180±188. A brief but informative resumeÂ of Rakovski's career to the summer of 1917.

3586 Lerner, W. Karl Radek: The Last Internationalist. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1970. x + 240 pp. A scholarly account of Radek's involvement in Polish, German, and Russian social democracy, based upon virtually all the relevant materials in existence.

3593 Conte, F. Christian Rakovski (1873±1941): A Political Biography (transl. by A. P. M. Bradley). Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1989. vi + 517 pp. A sympathetic but not uncritical biography, throwing particular light upon Rakovski's activities in Ukraine from 1919 to 1923. The volume is based upon numerous private and public archives (in Russia and in the West) and a large number of secondary sources; regrettably, it contains no bibliography. See also Conte, F. `Christian Rakovskij, Commissaire aux Affaires eÂtrangeÁres de l'Ukraine,

A brief factual review of the Red Admiral's career, concentrating upon his role in 1917 and in the civil war, together with some comments upon the implications of Raskol'nikov's rehabilitation under Khrushchev and his `repurging' under Brezhnev. L. REISNER 3598 Porter, C. Larissa Reisner. London: Virago Press, 1988. x + 195 pp. A sympathetic and fairly detailed biography, although not always factually accurate and lacking some documentation.

3594 Fagan, G. (ed. and introd.) Christian Rakovsky: Selected Writings on Opposition in the USSR, 1923±1930. London: Allison and Busby, 1980. 189 pp. Of interest to the student of the revolutionary period in that the volume contains `Christian Georgievich Rakovsky: An Autobiography', which is a translation from the Soviet encyclopedia Granat, a fifty-seven-page `Introduction' by Fagan, detailing Rakovski's early life and his activities in Ukraine from 1919 to 1923, and a bibliography of Rakovski's writings.

3599 Zeide, A. `Larisa Reisner: Myth as Justification for Life', Russian Review Vol. 51 (1992), No. 2, pp. 172±187. The author's contention in this debunking survey of the life, career and writings of the female commissar is that `the myth of Larisa Reisner is one of the myths about the Revolution', arguing that `she had never been a revolutionary activist' and was `no more than a Soviet-type journalist par excellence'.

3595 van Goudoever, A. P. `Cristian Racovski and Nashe Slovo (1914±1916)', in A. P. van Goudoever, (ed.) Romanian History, 1848±1948: Essays from the First Dutch±Romanian Colloquium of Historians, Utrecht 1997. Groningen: Wolters±Noordhoff, 1979. pp. 109±150. The author of this piece charts Rakovski's development from a man with centrist leanings in the Second International to a proponent of the Zimmerwald movement and, subsequently, a staunch supporter of the Third International. Goudoever finds that Roumanian socialists were in receipt of a subsidy from Parvus but maintains that Nashe slovo was not so dependent upon funds made available by Rakovski as to be itself compromised by the Parvus connection.

A. I. RYKOV 3600 Oppenheim, S. A. `The Making of a Right Communist ± A. I. Rykov to 1917', Slavic Review Vol. 36 (1979), No. 3, pp. 420±440. A brief but scholarly introduction to Rykov's prerevolutionary career which argues that he did not really understand the importance of literary and ideological work but that, having spent his life dealing with practical matters prior to 1917, `he probably adjusted more easily to administrative tasks' after the revolution than did most other Bolshevik leaders.

F. F. RASKOL'NIKOV

G. IA. SOKOLNIKOV

3596 `Ex-Insider, V' `Raskolnikov', Survey No. 53 (1964), pp. 119±128. This report of a conversation with an anonymous Western communist who was delegated to the Executive Committee of the Comintern in 1924 is largely concerned with his personal relations with Raskol'nikov of that time, but touches upon the character of the `Red Admiral' and his role in the civil war.

This unique biographical sketch of the leading Soviet diplomat of the 1920s and 1930s, a Central Committee member of 1917, signatory of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, and party spokesman of financial affairs during the civil-war years, details his rise to prominence within the party and the institutions of the early Soviet state.

J. V. STALIN 3602 Barbusse, H. Stalin (transl. by V. Holland). London: John Lane, 1935. 324 pp. The best of the early pro-Stalin accounts, by the noted French novelist.

3609 Iremaschwili, J. Stalin und die TragoÈdie Georgiens: Erinnerung von seinem langjahrigen Freund. Berlin: Verfasser, 1932. 95 pp. An account of Stalin's Georgian youth by one who knew him well and was later to become a Menshevik. The volume, implacably hostile to its subject, is notable as one of the first examples of psychohistory as applied to Stalin.

3603 Deutscher, I. Stalin: A Political Biography. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1949. 600 pp. In this volume ± justifiably one of the most famous of the biographies of Stalin, and still one of the most readable ± the author utilized virtually all materials then available to write two chapters on Stalin's activities during 1917 and during the civil war which together constitute around one-fifth of the text.

3610 Kennan, G. F. `The Historiography of the Early Political Career of Stalin', Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society Vol. 115 (1971), No. 3, pp. 165±169. Briefly reviewing evidence of Stalin's connections with the Okhrana in the period 1906 to 1913, the author concludes that there is `an overwhelming probability of such a connection'.

3604 Ellison, H. J. `Stalin and His Biographers: The Lenin±Stalin Relationship', in R. C. Elwood (ed.) Reconsiderations on the Russian Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Slavica, 1976. pp. 256±259. In this piece the author examines how various biographers of Stalin have addressed the questions of why, after the revolution, Lenin systematically advanced Stalin to positions of power in the party and government and why, prior to his death, he broke with Stalin.

3611 Lee, E. `The Eremin Letter: Documentary Proof that Stalin Was an Okhrana Spy?', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 6 (1993), No. 1, pp. 55±96. After a painstaking examination of the pedigree, physicality and contents of the notorious document (which originally appeared in Life magazine on 23 April 1956) connecting Stalin with the Russian secret police, the author concludes that although the evidence against it being genuine is weighty, the case against it is not yet entirely proven. A copy of the letter is appended.

3605 FreÂville, J. `Staline jusqu'aÁ la ReÂvolution d'Octobre', PenseÂe No. 58 (1954), pp. 41±47. A brief survey of the practical and theoretical activities of Stalin prior to the October Revolution, as revealed in the first three volumes of the French edition of his collected works.

3612 Levine, I. D. Stalin's Great Secret. New York: Coward±McCann, 1956. 126 pp. This brief study of Stain's youth is centred around the allegation, based upon the Eremin letter (see Lee [3611]), that Stalin was in the pay of the Okhrana. See also Levine, I. D. Stalin: A Biography. London: Jonathan Cape, 1931. 336 pp.

3606 Himmer, R. `The Transition from War Communism to the New Economic Policy: An Analysis of Stalin's Views', Russian Review Vol. 53 (1994), No. 4, pp. 515±529. Taking as his starting point Stalin's swingeing attack on the NEP at the Twelfth Party Congress of 1923, the author uses the scattered evidence available to demonstrate the strength of Stalin's commitment to the militancy of War Communism during the period 1918 to 1921, and to explain how he reacted to Lenin's shift to the NEP in 1921.

3613 McNeal, R. H. Stalin: Man and Ruler. New York: New York University Press, 1988. xvi + 389 pp. A first-rate general biography of Stalin, based upon a wide range of published sources. Only two chapters are devoted to the period 1917 to 1921, but the volume does include a useful map detailing `Stalin's Travels, June 1918±November 1920'.

3607 Hingley, R. Joseph Stalin: Man and Legend. New York: McGraw-Hill Book Company, 1974. xxi + 482 pp. An excellent scholarly biography, which focuses in particular upon debunking the various myths sur365

little more than speculation. Nevertheless, the work stands as among the most complete accounts of Stalin's life before the revolution. 3620 Souvarine, B. Stalin (transl. by C. L. R. James). London: Secker & Warburg, 1939. xiv + 690 pp. A monumental, pioneering study, by a former leader of the French Communist Party, a follower of Trotsky, bitterly hostile to its subject. The volume includes two lengthy chapters purporting to detail Stalin's role in the revolution and civil war, but which actually take the form of a general history of the period and tell us little of what Stalin did in these years.

3615 van Ree, E. `Stalin's Bolshevism: The First Decade', International Review of Social History Vol. 39 (1994), No. 3, pp. 361±381. A discussion of Stalin's Bolshevism during his Tiflis and Baku periods in the first decade of the century, focusing upon his position in the innerfaction debate between Lenin and Bogdanov. 3616 van Ree, E. `Stalin's Bolshevism: The Year of Revolutions', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 13 (2000), No. 1, pp. 29±54. Arguing that it is quite wrong to perceive Stalin as having `missed the revolution', the author claims that even before Lenin's return to Russia Stalin was convinced of the need to replace the Provisional Government, in due course, with a Soviet republic.

3621 Suny, R. G. `Beyond Psychohistory: The Young Stalin in Georgia', Slavic Review Vol. 50 (1991), No. 1, pp. 48±58. Examining Stalin's youth, the author finds that by the time he left Tiflis he had acquired `deep social hostilities to the repression that hindered his advance, a determination to resist what he perceived as injustice, and an ability to create a tight, loyal following around him'.

3617 Rigby, T. H. Stalin. Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall, 1966. 182 pp. A handy collection of extracts from printed sources, both primary and secondary, aimed at a non-specialist readership. Included are writings by Stalin, comments by his contemporaries (Lenin, Trotsky, Louis Fischer, Henri Barbusse, etc.), and assessments by historians (Tucker, Carr, Kennan and others).

3622 Trotsky, L. Stalin: An Appraisal of the Man and His Influence (ed. and transl. by C. Malamuth). New York: Harper & Brothers, 1946. xv + 516 pp. Trotsky was in the process of revising the first seven chapters of this work (covering Stalin's life to 1917) at the time of his murder. The remaining five chapters are a result of `extensive interpolations' by the editor. In the work Trotsky set out `to show how a personality of [Stalin's] sort was formed', rather than to discuss in detail his career as Soviet leader. He famously describes Stalin as a `phenomenon utterly exceptional', in that he was `neither a thinker, a writer nor an orator' who `took possession of power not with the aid of personal abilities, but with the aid of an impersonal machine'. By and large the work is vividly written and contains a wealth of documentary evidence and personal recollections, but unfortunately it lacks footnotes.

3618 Slusser, R. M. Stalin in October: The Man Who Missed the Revolution. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1987. x + 281 pp. This important work, a product of meticulous research among almost all the materials of relevance then available in the West, provides a detailed chronological account of Stalin's activities between March and October 1917. See also Slusser, R. M. `On the Question of Stalin's Role in the Bolshevik Revolution', Canadian±American Slavic Studies Vol. 19 (1977), pp. 405±416.

3623 Tucker, R. C. Stalin as a Revolutionary, 1879± 1929: A Study in History and Personality. New York: W. W. Norton & Co., 1973. xxi + 519 pp. A biography notable for its insights into the personality of Stalin ± one facet of which, suggests Tucker, was a need for identification with Lenin which bordered on hero-worship well before 1917. The volume also includes an analysis of the Stalinist rewriting of the history of the revolution, civil war and intervention. See also Tucker, R. C. `Stalin's Revolutionary Career Before 1917', in A. Rabino-

3619 Smith, E. E. The Young Stalin: The Early Years of an Elusive Revolutionary. New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1967. ix + 470 pp. Covering the years of Stalin's life in the revolutionary underground, from the turn of the century to October 1917, the author (a specialist in government intelligence work) utilized the Okhrana Collection at the Hoover Institution to argue that from 1899 to 1912 Stalin was working as an agent of the tsarist police. Much of what is presented in this regard is 366

3624 Ulam, A. B. Stalin: The Man and His Era. New York: Viking Press, 1973. 741 pp. A well-written historical biography, notable for its (undocumented) hypothesis that far from playing a minor role in the October Revolution, Stalin was considered important enough to be named as a member of a `reserve centre' intended to assume the leadership of the revolution if Lenin and Trotsky's efforts ended in failure.

3629 Odom, W. E. `Sverdlov: Bolshevik Party Organizer', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 44 (1965±1966) No. 2, pp. 421±443. A detailed chronicle of Sverdlov's activities in the period 1917 to 1918, arguing that he played `a key role in consolidating the rule of the single-party state' in the post-October period and that the concentration of administrative power in his hands prefigured that of Stalin and may even have influenced Stalin.

3625 Volkogonov, D. A. Stalin: Triumph and Tragedy (ed. and transl. H. Shukman). London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson. 1991. xxvii + 642 pp. In this volume, one of the most widely read works of the glasnost' era, the author, a senior Soviet Army officer and military historian, sought primarily to investigate the evils of the 1930s, but also provides a brief overview of Stalin's activities during the revolution and civil war which is based, in part, upon archival materials theretofore unavailable to Western researchers. For a historiographically interesting, highly ambiguous and thoroughly reticent review of the German edition of this work, see Ruge, W. `Ein Buch uÈber Stalin und die Stalinzeit. Zu der Stalin-Biographie von Dmitriy Volkogonov', Zeitschrift fuÈr Geschichteswissenschaft Vol. 38 (1990), No. 4, pp. 303±311, and the subsequent discussion of it: [Ruge, W. and Raabe, J.] `Lenin und der Stalinismus', Zeitschrift fuÈr Geschichteswissenschaft Vol. 38 (1990), No. 10, pp. 915±919.

3634 Binner, R. `Alte und neue Trotskij-Editionen', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 37 (1989), No. 3, pp. 393±414. A survey of works by and about Trotsky, with a particular concentration upon those works published in Russia after the rise of Gorbachev.

3641 Hansen, J. et al. Leon Trotsky: The Man and His Works: Reminiscences and Appraisals. New York: Merit Publishers, 1969. 128 pp. Recollections of Trotsky by friends and collaborators, written between 1940 and 1960, as well as excerpts from earlier works ± among them not easily accessible texts by Larissa Reisner and Karl Radek ± mostly reprinted from the Fourth International and the International Socialist Review.

3635 Cox, M. `Trotsky and His Interpreters, or, Will the Real Leon Trotsky Please Stand Up?', Russian Review Vol. 51 (1992), No. 1, pp. 84±102. A well-informed guide to and critique of traditional Western interpretations of Trotsky (divided by the author into pro-Soviet, orthodox Trotskyist, sympathetic critics, sceptics and realists) and to Trotsky's portrayal in Soviet works of the Gorbachev era.

3642 Leo Trotzki ± In den Augen von Zeitgenossen. Hamburg: Junius Verlag, 1979. 190 pp. A convenient, annotated collection of reminiscences taken from the published texts of contemporaries of Trotsky as wide-ranging as Krupskaia and Larissa Reisner on the one hand and Richard von KuÈhlmann and Bruce Lockhart on the other.

3636 Law, D. `Studies on Trotsky', Journal of Communist Studies Vol. 2 (1986), No. 1, pp. 83±90. A brief review of Western publications on Trotsky and Trotskyism.

3643 Lockhart, R. H. B. `L. D. Trotsky: A Pen Portrait', Fortnightly Review No. 113 (1923), pp. 642± 653. A well-written piece of commentary by the celebrated British agent who met Trotsky briefly in early 1918, characterizing Trotsky as an opportunist, yet one not completely indiscriminate in his choices: `By the sword he has lived,' the author ruminates portentously, `and by the sword he seems destined to perish.'

3637 Nation, R. `Approaching Trotsky's Written Legacy: A Selective Review of Sources', Studies in Comparative Communism Vol. 10 (1977), Nos 1±2, pp. 216±221. A review of three important publications: Meijer [203], Sinclair [3633] and the 1920s Russian edition of Trotsky's collected works.

3644 McCullagh, Captain F. `Trotsky in Ekaterinburg', Fortnightly Review No. 108 (1920), pp. 538± 550. Some general observations and comments on Trotsky, whom the author, a captured British officer, witnessed during his subject's visit to Ekaterinburg in late 1919. McCullagh was particularly fascinated by Trotsky's `distinctly Jewish' facial features, his `personal bravery which one does not always expect to find in a Jew', and by `the young Jewess' who looked after his children.

3638 Shapiro, J. `The Prophet Returned? A Survey of Recent Works by and about Trotsky in the Soviet Union', Revolutionary History Vol. 2 (1989), No. 2, pp. 54±56. A brief critical account of works by and about Trotsky which appeared in the Soviet press in 1989. 3639 Thatcher, I.

Studies

A collection of nineteen conference papers, on a variety of aspects of Trotsky's thought and career, by both Western and Russian scholars.

3645 Abosch, H. Trotzki und der Bolschewismus. Basel: Ed. Etcetera, 1975. 199 pp.

3653 BroueÂ, P. Trotsky. Paris: Fayard, 1988. 1105 pp. A voluminous study, enriched by the author's access to papers of the Trotsky Archives of the Houghton Library (which were closed until 1980) and of the Nicolaevsky Collection in the Hoover Institution Archives (which were only identified and registered in 1987), as well as by his close consultation of Jean van Heijenoort (Trotsky's former secretary and bodyguard). Although not totally uncritical of Trotsky, the author (a leading French Trotskyist) provides a sympathetic account of his life and works (and a critique of his detractors), notably offering an account of Trotsky's role in 1917 which is remarkably close to Trotsky's own. For a commentary on the work see Goldner, L. `Trotsky and Trotskyism: Pierre BroueÂ as Biographer', in H. Ticktin and M. Cox (eds) The Ideas of Leon Trotsky. London: Porcupine Press, 1995. pp. 333±338. See also BroueÂ, P. `Trotsky: A Biographer's Problem', in T. Brotherstone and P. Dukes (eds) The Trotsky Reappraisal. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1992. pp. 16±24. Also BroueÂ, P. L'Assassinat de Trotsky. Brussels: Editions Complex, 1980. 192 pp.; and BroueÂ, P. Leon Sedov, fils de Trotsky, victime de Staline. Paris: Editions ouvrieÁres, 1993. 227 pp.

3646 d'Agostino, A. `Ambiguities of Trotsky's Leninism', Survey Vol. 24 (1979), No. 1 (106), pp. 178±203. An examination of `the architecture of Trotsky's thought' which argues that `the very terms of Trotsky's conversion to Bolshevism were such as to impose on him a severe handicap in his future struggle for Lenin's mantle'. 3647 Archer, J. Trotsky: World Revolutionary. New York: Julian Messner, 1973. 189 pp. A simplistic, simple-minded and semi-fictionalized biography. 3648 Argenbright, R. `Honour among Communists: ``The Glorious Name of Trotsky's Train'' ', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 11 (1998), No. 1, pp. 45±66. An unusual consideration of `the type of moral order that Trotsky and his subordinates considered best for socialist society', as exemplified in the institution of his mobile headquarters during the civil war. The author notes that Trotsky's staff sought to prove to the population `by deeds' that `their way was a path to a better life', but finds that evidence of various crimes and infractions indicate that `life on the train did not maintain the communist ideal of perfection'.

3654 Cameron, S. D. `When Trotsky Was in Amherst, N. S.', Canadian Geographic Vol. 108 (1988), No. 2, pp. 60±66. A brief, straightforward but well-written account of how Trotsky came to be interned by the Canadian authorities during his attempt to return to Russia in 1917. Unfortunately the text lacks footnotes or other references.

3649 Baechler, J. Politique de Trotsky. Paris: Armand Collin, 1968. An influential analysis of Trotsky's political thought. 3650 Benvenuti, F. `Dal comunismo di guerra alla NEP: il dibattito sui sindicati', in F. Gori (ed.) Pensiero e azione politica di Lev Trockij. Florence: Leo S. Olschki, 1982, pp. 261±288. An insightful analysis of Trotsky's thoughts on trade unions and the militarization of labour during the intra-party debates of November 1920 to March 1921.

3655 Carlo, A. `Trotsky and the Party: From Our Political Tasks to the October Revolution', in H. Ticktin and M. Cox (eds) The Ideas of Leon Trotsky. London: Porcupine Press, 1995. pp. 147±162. The author traces Trotsky's ideological development from 1904 through 1917, as well as outlining Trotsky's later comments upon his career of this period. Carlo argues that `the disagreement with Lenin on the problem of organization was overcome de facto in 1905±07, but because of a complex series of historical circumstances, the reconciliation did not take place until 1917'.

3651 Blakely, P. R. `Trotsky in Halifax', The Atlantic Advocate (November 1964), pp. 42±48. A brief, unremarkable account of the circumstances surrounding Trotsky's internment in Canada during the spring of 1917. 3652 Brotherstone, T. and Dukes, P. (eds) The Trotsky Reappraisal. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1992. x + 249 pp.

3656 Carmichael, J. Trotsky: An Appreciation of His Life. New York: St Martin's Press, 1975. 512 pp. 369

3657 . 19 The Bolsheviks The first full-length non-Trotskyist biography of Trotsky in English, but very weakly researched and prone to unsubstantiated efforts at psychohistory and lapses into mindless anti-communism. For a lengthy critique see Anin, D. S. `Lenin, Trotsky and Parvus', Survey Vol. 24 (1979), No. 1 (106), pp. 204±212. See also Carmichael, J. `Trotsky's Agony', Encounter Vol. 38 (1972), No. 5, pp. 31±41; No. 6, pp. 28±36.

The first volume in this famous trilogy provides a sympathetic, detailed and masterfully written account of Trotsky's career as a revolutionary leader and military organizer in the revolutionary period. See also Deutscher, I. `Trotsky pendant la reÂvolution d'octobre', Temps modernes Vol. 13 (1957), Nos 137± 138, pp. 174±206; No. 139, pp. 478±499; No. 140, pp. 699±728. See also Deutscher, I. `Trotsky en 1921, deÂfaite dans la victoire', Temps modernes Vol. 15 (1959), Nos 156±157, pp. 1394±1432. For a commentary, see Fischer, L. `Trotsky, Stalin and Deutscher', Virginia Quarterly Review Vol. 40 (1964), No. 2, pp. 307±320.

3657 Cliff, T. Towards October: Trotsky, 1879± 1917. London: Bookmarks, 1989. 324 pp. Cliff, T. Trotsky: Sword of Revolution, 1917±1923. London: Bookmarks, 1990. 309 pp. These works, the first two volumes of a four-part biography, authored by one of Britain's foremost Trotskyists, are predictably narrow, doctrinaire and worshipful, as well as being evasive on the more controversial episodes of Trotsky's career.

3662 Gori, F. (ed.) Pensiero e azione politica di Lev Trockij, 2 vols. Florence: Leo S. Olschki, 1982. 697 pp. Collected here, arranged approximately by chronological order of their subject matter, are almost forty contributions to an international conference held in Italy during October 1980. (The most relevant contributions are listed separately in this bibliography.)

3658 Davies, R. W. `Trockij and the Debate on Industrialisation in the USSR', in F. Gori (ed.) Pensiero e azione politica di Lev Trockij. Florence: Leo S. Olschki, 1982, pp. 239±259. This chapter, surveying the evolution of Trotsky's thinking about industrialization, includes some brief but penetrating comments upon his views on the militarization of labour during the period 1919 to 1921.

3663 Harvey, A. D. `Trotsky at Halifax, April 1917', Archives Vol. 22 (1997), No. 97, pp. 170±174. Reproduced here are a number of documents from the files of the British Foreign Office relating to Trotsky's arrest and detention in Canada. The author argues that they demonstrate that the arrest and Miliukov's subsequent request for a delay in Trotsky's release `were occasioned by the British authorities' readiness to believe that Trotsky was a German agent'.

3659 Davis, W. Trotsky in Nova Scotia. Halifax: Halifax-Dartmouth Young Socialists, 1971. 33 pp. A pamphlet commemorating Trotsky's brief and enforced stay in Canada during 1917. 3660 Day, R. B. Leon Trotsky and the Politics of Economic Isolation. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1973. vii + 221. In this stimulating, impeccably scholarly, original, and ably argued work, the author seeks to refute the myth that the notion of `permanent revolution' was central to Trotsky's thought. On the contrary, he notes controversially, during the period of War Communism Trotsky adopted an isolationist position. See also Day, R. B. `Preobrazhensky and the Theory of the Transition Period', Soviet Studies Vol. 27 (1975), No. 2, pp. 196±216.

3664 Heyman, N. M. `Leon Trotsky: Propagandist to the Red Army', Studies in Comparative Communism, Vol. 10 (1977), Nos 1±2, pp. 34±43. A brief and admiring but insightful examination of Trotsky's propaganda work during three crises for the Red Army: Kolchak's advance of the spring of 1919; the seige of Petrograd during the autumn of 1919; and the last weeks of the Polish±Soviet War during September 1920. For Heyman, `Trotsky stands as a single, intuitive practitioner, distinguished by his literary skill and psychological insight'. See also Heyman, N. M. `Leon Trotsky's Military Education: From the Russo-Japanese War to 1917', Journal of Modern History Vol. 45 (1973), No. 2 (microfiche supplement).

Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1959. xiii + 490 pp. Deutscher, I. The Prophet Outcast: Trotsky, 1929± 1940. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1963. xii + 543 pp.

3665 Howe, I. Leon Trotsky. New York: Viking, 1978. 186 pp. A brief popular biography, which draws extensively upon Deutscher's more scholarly effort [3661], and which is perhaps less interesting for what it tells 370

L. D. Trotsky . 3676 us about Trotsky than for what it reveals about the attitude to the Russian revolution of its author, a prominent American radical.

An uncritical, unscholarly monograph by an apparently devout Trotskyist, arguing that `it is impossible to understand the world today without the aid of Trotsky'.

3666 King, D. Trotsky: A Photographic Biography (commentary by J. Ryan; introd. by T. Deutscher). Oxford: Blackwell, 1986. 336 pp. A collection of rare photographs from the David King collection, carefully structured, notes the author, `so that the book might be read in the same way as seeing a documentary film'. The longest chapter (pp. 64±143) illustrates Trotsky's role in the revolution and civil war.

3671 Naville, P. `Trotckij, la politique militaire et l'ArmeÂe Rouge', in F. Gori (ed.) Pensiero e azione politica di Lev Trockij. Florence: Leo S. Olschki, 1982, pp. 209±237. An unremarkable review of Trotsky's pre-1917 and post-1921 published thoughts on military affairs and military theory, and of his part in the formation of the Red Army during the civil war. 3672 Nutsch, J. G. `Trotsky and the Peasants', Survey Vol. 25 (1980), No. 3 (112), pp. 110±121. An argument that, during the period 1917 to 1921, far from failing to take due notice of peasant affairs, as is sometimes claimed, Trotsky was `in the front rank' of Bolsheviks concerned with peasant affairs (particularly after the spring of 1918).

3667 Knei-Paz, B. The Social and Political Thought of Leon Trotsky. Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1978. xxii + 629 pp. One of the best books on Trotsky, being largely free from polemics and being critical but not unfair toward its subject. The volume offers a painstakingly detailed analysis of Trotsky's social and political ideas in the context of historical events, centred around the theory of permanent revolution, its practice and `betrayal' (although, unfortunately, the author excluded from his scope any consideration of Trotsky's political record while in power). On the importance of this volume see McNeal, R. H. `Trotsky's Trotskyism', Survey Vol. 24 (1979), No. 1 (106), pp. 174±177. See also Knei-Paz, B. `The Political and Cultural Formation of Lev Trockij: An Intellectual Portrait', in F. Gori (ed.) Pensiero e azione politico di Lev Trockij. Florence: Leo S. Olschki, 1982, pp. 21±42.

3673 Pantsov, A. V. `Lev Davidovich Trotskii', Soviet Studies in History Vol. 30 (1991±1992), No. 1, pp. 7±43. A translation of the first truly scholarly article to appear on Trotsky in the Soviet Union since his disgrace of the 1920s ± appearing originally in Voprosy istorii (1990), No. 5, pp. 65±87. Pantsov draws on Trotsky's writings and materials appearing in popular journals under glasnost' to paint a reasonably sympathetic portrait of a man who `always remained true to the purpose to which he dedicated his life'.

3668 Mandel, E. Trotsky: A Study in the Dynamic of His Thought. London: New Left Books, 1979. 156 pp. An almost blindly admiring analysis of Trotsky's political thought by a leading Western Trotskyist and leading theoretician of the Fourth International. See also Mandel, E. `Trotsky en la revolucioÂn rusa', Los supplementos cuadernos para el diaÂlogo No. 82 (1977), pp. 24±29. For a list of works by and about the author see Lubitz, W. and Lubitz, P. `Ernest Mandel (1923±1995): A Bibliographical Tribute', Journal of Trotsky Studies Vol. 4 (1996), pp. 67±124.

3674 Payne, R. The Life and Death of Leon Trotsky. New York: McGraw-Hill, 1977. viii + 498 pp. An entirely unscholarly and unconvincing biography. 3675 Pomper, P. `Trotsky and Martov', in T. Brotherstone and P. Dukes (eds) The Trotsky Reappraisal. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1992. pp. 166±176. An examinations of Trotsky's writings on Martov and the Mensheviks after 1917. The author's contention is that `Trotsky's self-affirmation as a leader issued from his sense that he had successfully overcome in himself or outgrown those characteristics that consigned Martov to the dustbin of history'.

3669 Meyer, A. G. `Lev Davidovich Trotsky', Problems of Communism Vol. 16 (1967), pp. 30±40. A brief review of Trotsky's political career which, quite remarkably, says virtually nothing about the years 1917 to 1921.

3676 Radek, K. `The Organizer of Victory', in Leon Trotsky: Military Writings. London: Pathfinder Press, 1971. pp. 11±18. A hymn of praise to Trotsky as organizer and

3682 Segal, R. The Tragedy of Leon Trotsky. London: Hutchinson, 1979. 445 pp. Although well-written, this sympathetic biography does little more than achieve a preÂcis of Deutscher's three-volume study [3661].

3677 Reiman, M. `Trotskij 1917: die Geburt einer historischen PersoÈnlichkeit', in F. Gori (ed.) Pensiero e azione politica di Lev Trotskij. Florence: Leo S. Olschki, 1982, pp. 187±197. Some brief thoughts on Trotsky's actions in 1917 and their influence upon his standing as a historical personality.

3683 Semenenko, V. I. `The Soviet±Polish War of 1920, the Idea of World Revolution and the Position of L. D. Trotsky', Journal of Trotsky Studies No. 3 (1995), pp. 59±80. A somewhat meandering account of Trotsky's activities during the second half of 1920 (and of later analyses of them) by a Russian historian.

3678 Rodney, W. `Broken Journey: Trotsky in Canada, 1917', Queen's Quarterly Vol. 74 (1967), No. 4, pp. 649±665. An unremarkable account of the detention of Trotsky and his family at Halifax and his subsequent internment at Amherst. This was an experience, alleges the author, which imbued in Trotsky `a lasting hatred of the British Government'.

3684 Smith, I. H. (ed.) Trotsky. Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall, 1973. 181 pp. This volume collects a number of extracts from Trotsky's published writings (on political theory, history, and the Soviet experience) and a number of extracts from works about Trotsky (as a revolutionary, a colleague, in exile, in history, etc.).

3679 Schapiro, L. `Trotsky ``Wie er Eigentlich Gewesen'' ', Government and Opposition Vol. 17 (1982), No. 3, pp. 259±267. A brief argument that `the hagiographers of Trotsky', in concentrating on his struggle against Stalin, tend to ignore `the discreditable and abject instances in which Trotsky bolstered Stalin in his rise to power'.

3685 Spence, R. B. `Interrupted Journey: British Intelligence and the Arrest of Leon Trotskii, April 1917', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 13 (2000), No. 1, pp. 1±28. In this entertaining and thoroughly researched piece, the author utilizes British and Canadian records to examine the oft-repeated charges that Trotsky's arrest was a consequence of machinations on the part of the British intelligence services. Spence finds, surprisingly, that the arrest was in fact the work of one branch of the intelligence services, but that his release and return to Petrograd was facilitated by another branch (which may have sought to recruit Trotsky as `an agent of influence' in revolutionary Russia).

3680 Schurer, H. `The Permanent Revolution: Lev Trotsky', in L. Labedz (ed.) Revisionism: Essays on the History of Marxist Ideas. London: Allen & Unwin, 1962. pp. 67±76. A critical account of the development of the concept of permanent revolution by Parvus and his `erstwhile disciple', Trotsky. For Schurer, the theory `belongs to an historical epoch which has gone forever, the period of the Second International' and was the offspring of the close, pre-1914 interaction of German and Russian Marxism. It has, therefore, `had its day'. See also Schurer, H. `The Permanent Revolution: Metamorphosis of an Idea', Soviet Survey Vol. 32 (April±June 1960), pp. 68±73.

3686 Stokes, C. The Evolution of Trotsky's Theory of Revolution. Washington, DC: University Press of America, 1982. viii + 197 pp. Tracing the evolution of Trotsky's theory of permanent revolution from its inception to Trotsky's application of it to the Soviet Union as a degenerated workers' state, the author finds that the difference between the Marxist and Trotskyist theories of revolution lies in the latter's emphasis on political rather than economic dimensions.

3681 Sedova-Trotsky, N. and Serge, V. The Life and Death of Leon Trotsky (transl. by A. J. Pomerans; introd. by V. Kibaltchich). London: Wildwood House, 1975. 296 pp. Originally published in French in 1951, this brief biography consists of some short recollections by Sedova (Trotsky's widow) linked by Victor Serge's comments on Trotsky's career and (especially) its historical background. See also Serge, V. `In Memory: L. D. Trotsky', Partisan Review Vol. 9 (1942), No. 5, pp. 388±398.

3687 Tarkhova, N. S. `Trotsky's Train: An Unknown Page in the History of the Civil War', in T. Brotherstone and P. Dukes (eds) The Trotsky Reappraisal. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1992. pp. 27±40. A very informative and detailed account of the organization and activities of Trotsky's mobile 372

L. D. Trotsky . 3695 headquarters during the period August 1918 to late 1920, by a Russian archivist in charge of the train's records.

analysis of the evolution of Trotsky's thought during the war years, detailing his relations with the Mensheviks and the Bolsheviks and, in the process, challenging some of the central tenets of Trotsky's own account of his life at this time as well as that offered by his major biographer, Isaac Deutscher. The book is founded upon a close examination of Trotsky's published journalism of the period.

3688 Thatcher, I. D. `Trotskii, Lenin and the Bolsheviks, August 1914±February 1917', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 72 (1994), No. 1, pp. 72±114. Both a historical and a historiographical study, this original article presents the relations between Trotsky and Lenin from the outbreak of the First World War to the February Revolution as `a story of almost continuous opposition' which subsequently became obscured by Bolshevik writers (`in collaboration and then in dispute') in the years 1917 to 1924.

3692 Thatcher, I. D. and White, J. D. (eds) `Trotsky's Reflections on the Russian Revolution from New York', Journal of Trotsky Studies No. 1 (1993), pp. 95±122. Testing Trotsky's claim that his initial reactions to the events of February 1917 in Russia coincided with those Lenin expressed in his `Letters from Afar', the editors here present translations of eight articles Trotsky published in the New York journal Novyi mir (from 20 January to 21 March 1918), and find that `a rather different picture than direct convergence of views between Trotsky and Lenin emerges'. See also Thatcher, I. D. `Leon Trotsky in New York City', Historical Research Vol. 69 (1996), pp. 166± 180.

3689 Thatcher, I. D. `Trotskii and the Mensheviks during the First World War', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 9 (1996), No. 2, pp. 164±205. Utilizing contemporary newspapers and the published letters of the protagonists, the author carefully traces the disputes occasioned by the war between Trotsky and Martov, Aksel'rod, Dan, Martynov and other Mensheviks. He concludes that (pace most writers' concentration upon Trotsky's disputes with Lenin in this period) it was the struggle against the `passive internationalism' of the Mensheviks which `engaged Trotskii's attention more than any other of the First World War period'. See also Thatcher, I. D. `Russian Social Patriotism in Trotskii's Paris Writings during the First World War', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 6 (1993), No. 2, pp. 229±276.

3693 Ticktin, H. and Cox, M. (eds) The Ideas of Leon Trotsky. London: Porcupine Press, 1995. 386 pp. A collection of twenty articles by left-wing scholars, dealing with a range of aspects of Trotsky's thought. The most relevant chapters are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography. 3694 Vogt-Downey, M. (ed.) The Ideological Legacy of L. D. Trotsky: History and Contemporary Times. New York: Committee for the Study of Leon Trotsky's Legacy, 1998. 189 pp. A collection of articles originally presented at the first conference in Russia dedicated to Trotsky, which was held in 1994 and attended by Russian, Ukrainian and Western delegates. The contributions are very uneven in quality and the main aim of the volume seems to be to give precedence to the advancement of Trotskyism over any worthwhile scholarly consideration of Trotsky's legacy.

3690 Thatcher, I. D. `Trotsky and the Duma: A Research Essay', in I. D. Thatcher (ed.) Regime and Society in Twentieth-Century Russia: Selected Papers from the Fifth World Congress of Central and East European Studies, Warsaw, 1995. London: Macmillan, 1999. pp. 27±43. An attempt to demonstrate that Trotsky's scepticism regarding Russian parliamentarianism, as it operated in the period between 1905 and 1917, was justified, while noting that although Trotsky disparaged the Duma as a representational body, he regarded it as important `as an institution around which the social democrats should conduct their agitation for revolution'. Trotsky had, therefore, been `a consistent advocate of socialist participation in Russia's parliament' and, from this perspective, 1917 in fact `emerges as a break in his political thinking'.

3695 Volkogonov, D. A. Trotsky: The Eternal Revolutionary (transl. and ed. by H. Shukman). New York: HarperCollins, 1996. xxxvi + 524 pp. An almost unremittingly hostile account of Trotsky's life and thought by a former Soviet general. On this work see BroueÂ, P. and Pantsov, A. `An Open Letter to General D. A. Volkogonov', Journal of Trotsky Studies No. 3 (1993), pp. 53±58; and Thatcher, I. D. (transl.) `Two Russian Reviews of General Dmitri Volkogonov on Trotsky', Journal of Trotsky Studies No. 3 (1993), pp. 123±137.

3691 Thatcher, I. D. Leon Trotsky during World War One: August 1914 to February 1917. London: Macmillan, 2000. vii + 262 pp. A sympathetic but critical and enlightening 373

3696 . 19 The Bolsheviks 3696 Warth, R. D. Leon Trotsky. Boston: Twayne Publishers, 1977. 215 pp. A brief narrative of the main events of Trotsky's life, with little or no coverage of his theoretical writings and conveying nothing of the motives which led him to act as he did.

3701 Korey, W. `G. E. Zinoviev', Problems of Communism Vol. 16 (1969), pp. 51±61. A brief review of Zinoviev's career, concentrating upon his opposition to the seizure of power in 1917 and his leadership of the Comintern.

3697 Wistrich, R. Trotsky: Fate of a Revolutionary. London: Robson Books, 1979. 235 pp. A closely argued if overtly hostile analysis of Trotsky's life and works, including a notable section on the theory of permanent revolution, which, at the time of its publication, was markedly more critical of its subject's weaknesses than much of the Western writing on him that had theretofore appeared.

GENERAL AND MISCELLANEOUS STUDIES OF THE BOLSHEVIK PARTY

General 3702 Agursky, M. The Third Rome: Russian National Bolshevism and the USSR (fwd. by L. Schapiro). Boulder, CO: Westview Press, 1987. xvii + 426 pp. The eÂmigreÂ author's contention is that since the early years of the century it had been Lenin's intention to outpace the developing German revolution: that German social democracy wanted to bring revolution to Russia; but that Lenin wanted to consolidate Bolshevik power in Russia in order to bring his own (non-Marxist) brand of revolution to Germany. The work includes also a stimulating (if somewhat over-emotional) exploration of the ways in which a variety of political thinkers attempted to reconcile Bolshevism with elements of Russian nationalism in the years 1917 to 1928.

3698 Wyndham, F. and King, D. Trotsky: A Documentary. New York: Praeger, 1972. 204 pp. An aesthetic delight, this work seeks to document the life of Trotsky through reproductions of photographs, posters and cartoons (each of which is briefly but informatively annotated). The accompanying text, occupying only one-fifth of the volume, draws heavily upon Trotsky's and Isaac Deutscher's writings for its coverage of the revolutionary period (which is the subject of the longest chapter ± pp. 64± 143).

3703 von Borcke, A. Die Ursprunge des Bolschewismus. Die jakobinische Tradition in Russland und die Theorie der revolutionaren Diktatur. Munich: Berchmans, 1977. 646 pp. Although sometimes bordering on the tedious and badly in need of tighter editing, this published PhD thesis is erudite and offers a wealth of interesting ideas and references. The author argues that `Jacobinism', as a major element of the Russian revolutionary movement in its own right from the midnineteenth century onwards, was more influential in determining the initiatives of Lenin and the Bolsheviks in October 1917 and after than were any Jacobin impulses in Marxian thought. The volume includes a good bibliography (pp. 585±633).

K. E. VOROSHILOV 3699 Wheatley, D. Red Eagle: The Story of the Russian Revolution and of Klementy Efremovitch Voroshilov. London: Book Club, 1938. 390 pp. A crass mixture of popular history and hagiography, semi-fictionalized in parts, concentrating upon Voroshilov's role in the Red Army's campaigns in the Ukraine and against the Poles in the period 1918 to 1920. G. E. ZINOVIEV 3700 Hedlin, M. W. `Zinoviev's Revolutionary Tactics in 1917', Slavic Review Vol. 34 (1975), No. 1, pp. 19±43. A refutation of the stereotyped Western and Soviet image of Zinoviev as a coward and/or traitor, this convincing piece argues for a more balanced assessment of his generally courageous, perceptive and principled stance during the inner-party debates of April to October 1917. See also Hedlin, M. W. `Grigorii Zinoviev: The Myths of the Defeated', in R. C. Elwood (ed.) Reconsiderations on the Russian Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Slavica, 1976. pp. 184± 210.

3704 Brailsford, H. N. `The Russian Communist Party', Contemporary Review No. 661 (January 1922), pp. 20±32. An unusually sober and well-informed early portrait of the Bolshevik Party's personnel and methods. For the author, `the history of this party under Tsardom goes far to explain its present mentality'. 3705 BroueÂ, P. Le Parti Bolchevique. Histoire du P. C. de l'U. R. S. S. Paris: Les EÂditions de Minuit, 1972. 652 pp. 374

General and Miscellaneous Studies of the Bolshevik Party . 3716 Covering the period from the turn of the century to the (then) present, this is a well-presented synthesis which draws upon a solid source base but which is particularly indebted to the works of E. H. Carr and Isaac Deutscher. Usefully appended are some two hundred brief biographies of party leaders.

argue that the Bolsheviks saw the breakdown of 1919 to 1920 as the realization of their dreams (Isaac Deutscher, Andrzej Walicki, Bertrand Patenaude and others); and those who argue that the Bolsheviks disingenuously justified the coercion of 1919 to 1920 as an emergency measure only in hindsight (Martin Malia).

3706 Elwood, R. C. Roman Malinovsky: A Life without a Cause. Newtonville, MA: Oriental Research Partners, 1977. 107 pp. In this brief biography the author skilfully unravels the web of fact and fiction surrounding the Bolshevik Central Committee member who resigned in 1914 amid rumours that he was an Okhrana spy and who was tried and shot as such by the Soviet government in 1918.

3711 Lundquist, L. The Party and the Masses: An Interorganizational Analysis of Lenin's Model for the Bolshevik Revolutionary Movement. Epping: Bowker, 1982. 336 pp. 3712 Meissner, B. Das Parteiprogramm der KPdSU 1903 bis 1919. Cologne: Verlag Wissenschaft und Politik, 1961. 245 pp. An informed discussion of the evolution of the party programme, with extensive coverage of that formulated in 1919.

3707 Gill, G. `Bolshevism and the Party Form', Australian Journal of Politics and History Vol. 34 (1988), No. 1, pp. 51±63. An intelligent and judicious discussion which argues that prior to March 1921 two alternative models of party organization existed as `legitimate parts of the Bolshevik tradition': a centralist model and one based upon rank-and-file sovereignty. For Gill, the ultimate ascendancy of the former over the latter was a consequence of `the impact of contextual factors' and the dictates of expediency, rather than being reflective of `some ``Bolshevik essence'' '.

3713 Rosenberg, A. A History of Bolshevism. From Marx to the First Five Year Plan. London: Oxford University Press, 1934. 250 pp. An influential early study, with heavy coverage of the revolutionary period. Implicit throughout is the author's admiration for Trotsky and his glorification of Trotsky's ideas and actions. 3714 Rowley, D. G. Millenarian Bolshevism, 1900 to 1920. New York: Garland, 1987. 380 pp. In this published reprint of his 1982 doctoral thesis, the author identifies Bogdanov and Lunacharskii as proponents of an essentially millenarian, voluntarist and idealist philosophy and charts their relations with Lenin and other Bolshevik leaders. Rowley argues that `the millenarian Bolsheviks' were not deviants from the Social Democratic movement but were `at its intellectual center'. However, although the work contains some interesting ideas, the study lacks a rigorous discussion of what might reasonably be characterized as `millenarian' or `chiliastic'.

3708 Gurian, W. Der Bolschewismus. Einfuhrung in Geschichte und Lehre. Freiburg im Breisgau: Herder, 1931. xi + 337 pp. This influential (and much republished and translated) volume constitutes one of the earliest attempts to describe the history of Bolshevik actions and ideas (from their origins through the revolution and civil war) from a sociological point of view. A lengthy appendix (pp. 213±288) contains a selection of documents. 3709 Katkov, G. and Shukman, H. Lenin's Path to Power: Bolshevism and the Destiny of Russia. London: Macdonald, 1971. 127 pp. A heavily illustrated popular history of Bolshevism and the Russian revolution.

3715 Schapiro, L. The Communist Party of the Soviet Union. London: Eyre & Spottiswoode, 1960. xiv + 631 pp. In its time the definitive work, this volume provides a detailed chronological account of the party's institutional and ideological development from the 1890s to the Khrushchev era.

3710 Lih, L. T. `The Mystery of the ABC', Slavic Review Vol. 56 (1997), No. 1, pp. 50±72. In this interesting piece the author seeks to demonstrate that three widely accepted hypotheses about the Bolshevik outlook prior to the NEP have all misused Bukharin and Preobrazhenskii's `Bible of communism': those who assert that the party's utopianism was created in reaction to the difficulties of the civil war (especially E. H. Carr); those who

ship of the party (in terms of class, status, age, education, and nationality), of the extent of the popular support for the party (on the basis of the returns for the elections to the Second Duma), and of the functioning of local party committees in St Petersburg, Moscow, Ivanovo-Voznesensk, Tver, Ekaterinoslav, Baku, and Omsk. See also Lane, D. `The Russian Social Democratic Labour Party in St. Petersburg, Tver and Ashkhabad, 1903±1905', Soviet Studies Vol. 15 (1964), No. 3, pp. 331±344.

3717 Selznick, P. The Organizational Weapon: A Study of Bolshevik Strategy. New York: McGrawHill, 1952. 350 pp. An anti-communist sociological analysis of the party's organization and strategy, arguing that for Leninism organization is a vital adjunct to ideology in the seizure of power and that the Bolshevik party closely resembled a military organization.

3722 Milligan, S. `The Petrograd Bolsheviks and Social Insurance, 1914±1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 20 (1968±1969), No. 3, pp. 369±374. A brief note concerning the party's use of insurance bodies, particularly the boards of bol'nichnye kassy (medical funds) as propaganda outlets during the war.

3718 Ulam, A. B. The Bolsheviks: The Intellectual and Political History of the Triumph of Communism in Russia. New York: Macmillan, 1965. ix + 598 pp. Focusing upon Lenin (later British editions were entitled Lenin and the Bolsheviks), this influential work is analytical rather than narrative in structure and presents a judicious mix of commentary and criticism. The author's argument is that all Lenin's manoeuvres and uses of doctrine can be interpreted in terms of an ad hoc application of the dialectic in the pursuit of (and then for the retention of) power.

3723 Pipes, R. `Russian Marxism and Its Populist Background: The Late Nineteenth Century', Russian Review Vol. 19 (1960), No. 4, pp. 316±337. An enduringly influential study of the relationship between Populism and Marxism, calling attention to the common organizational and ideological backgrounds against which they developed in Russia. 3724 Senn, A. E. `The Bolshevik Conference in Bern, 1915', Slavic Review Vol. 25 (1966), No. 4, pp. 676±678. A brief note on the Conference of February 1915 ± `a rather casual affair', in the author's view ± which gave formal approval to Lenin's views on the First World War. See also Senn, A. E. `Les russes dans le mouvement Zimmerwald', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 10 (1969), No. 2, pp. 219±227.

The Party Prior to 1917 3719 Dan, F. The Origins of Bolshevism (transl. by J. Carmichael). New York: Secker & Warburg, 1964. xii + 468 pp. Although he was formerly one of the sternest socialist critics of the Bolsheviks (and had worked as their political opponent as a Menshevik leader in 1917), Dan's later qualified admiration of the Soviet reÂgime is reflected in this important history of the party's origins.

3725 Szamuely, T. `The Birth of Russian Marxism', Survey Vol. 18 (1972), No. 3 (84), pp. 56±90. An examination of how Western Marxism was adapted to the indigenous revolutionary tradition of Russia, and of Marx's and Engels's views on the revolutionary potential of Russia. The author notes that Lenin's alleged violation of the basic principles of Marxism, in carrying out a revolution in an underdeveloped state, `was first proposed and justified ± specifically and exclusively for Russia ± by none other than Marx and Engels themselves'.

3720 Haimson, L. The Russian Marxists and the Origins of Bolshevism. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1955. 246 pp. A pioneering work, unusual in its approach in that it traces the development of the ideas of Social Democrat leaders (including Axelrod, Martov, Lenin, and Plekhanov) in the light of what the author regards as their fixed attitudes with regard to the question of workers' consciousness.

3726 White, J. D. `Latvian and Lithuanian Sections in the Bolshevik Party on the Eve of the February Revolution', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 3 (1990), No. 1, pp. 90±107. An original and unusual attempt to bring together what is known about the Latvian and Lithuanian raiony of the party (i.e., the Baltic sections of the

General and Miscellaneous Studies of the Bolshevik Party . 3735 party operating on Russian territory) between 1914 and February 1917, and to investigate how they contributed to the activities of the party in the February Revolution. The article sheds particular light upon the party's failure to take the initiative in the establishing of the Petrograd Soviet.

An examination of the critique of the increasingly dictatorial policies of the Bolsheviks which was elaborated by the Urals metalworker and long-time Bolshevik Gavril Il'ich Miasnikov ± criticisms which were to figure prominently at the Eleventh and Twelfth Party Congresses ± together with a survey of Miasnikov's career. The author expresses admiration for his subject's `revolutionary integrity'.

3727 Williams, R. C. The Other Bolsheviks: Lenin and His Critics, 1904±1914. Bloomington, IN: Indiana University Press, 1986. 233 pp. An examination of the ideas and activities of Bolshevik intellectuals in the decade before the First World War, focusing upon the quarrels between Lenin and A. A. Bogdanov, Maxim Gorky, L. B. Krasin, A. V. Lunacharskii, and V. Bonch-Bruevich, and throwing much light upon the party's fundraising activities (the Tiflis `expropriation' of 1907, the N. P. Schmidt inheritance, etc.).

3732 BeÂard, E. `Pourqoi les bolcheviks ont-ils quitteÂ Petrograd?', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 34 (1993), No. 4, pp. 507±528. The author of this excellent article (which is based upon materials from the Russian archives) argues that the Bolshevik leadership's decision to move the capital from Petrograd to Moscow in March 1918 had nothing to do, as was claimed, with the German military threat, but was necessitated by the explosive situation in Petrograd itself, as opposition to the reÂgime grew daily. Equally important was the desire to imbue the reÂgime with an aura of legitimacy by occupying the Kremlin.

3728 Yassour, A. `Lenin and Bogdanov: Protagonists in the Bolshevik Center', Studies in Soviet Thought Vol. 22 (1981), pp. 1±32. The author of this piece traces the collapse of what he terms a `Bolshevik Center' (for co-ordinating the faction's activities within the RSDLP) to the dispute between Lenin and Bogdanov over tactics in the aftermath of the 1905 Revolution.

3733 Daniels, R. V. `The Secretariat and the Local Organizations in the Russian Communist Party, 1921±1923', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 16 (1957), No. 1, pp. 32±49. Focusing mainly upon the provincial centres of Samara and Tula and on the Siberian Regional Bureau of the party, this predominantly descriptive piece charts the consolidation of the Bolshevik Party in the immediate aftermath of the civil war.

The Party, 1917±1921 3729 Abrosimova, T. A. `The Composition of the Petersburg Committee of the RSDRP(b) in 1917' (transl. by S. Smith), Revolutionary Russia Vol. 11 (1998), No. 1, pp. 37±44. A brief examination of the size and composition of the party's leading organ in Petrograd during 1917. The author notes that although membership fluctuated throughout the year, the basic group of leaders ± all experienced Bolsheviks ± stayed the same, and that they `would not accept the least pressure either from the CC or from the organs of government' with regard to matters of tactics or policy. 3730 Ali, J. `Aspects of the RKP(b) Secretariat, March 1919 to April 1922', Soviet Studies Vol. 26 (1974), No. 3, pp. 396±416. A factual narrative account of the expanding functions and activities of the various sub-departments of the party secretariat from the death of Sverdlov to the appointment of Stalin as General Secretary.

3734 Daniels, R. V. The Conscience of the Revolution: Communist Opposition in Soviet Russia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1960. xi + 526 pp. A lively and pioneering study of factions within the party, based upon a wide range of published materials, including extensive coverage of the revolutionary period, the issue of `revolutionary war' over the winter of 1917 to 1918, the Left Communists, the Workers' Opposition, etc. See also Daniels, R. V. `The Left Communists', Problems of Communism Vol. 16 (1967), pp. 62±71; Daniels, R. V. `The Left Opposition and the Evolution of Soviet Communism', in R. V. Daniels Trotsky, Stalin and Socialism.

3736 . 19 The Bolsheviks Officialdom: The Bureaucratization of Russian Society from the Seventeenth to the Twentieth Century. Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1980. pp. 355±368. An investigation of the process by which the selection of members of the Central Committee evolved from being a genuinely (intra-party) democratic election to a state of ultrabureaucratization, in which membership, ex officio, became a function of an individual's job and rank. The author makes some interesting parallels with the tsarist bureaucracy.

offered a coherent alternative to Leninist Bolshevism but one that, in the circumstances of the time, stood no hope of displacing it. 3741 Klug, E. `Die ``Gruppe des Demokratischen Zentralismus'' in der 10. Parteitag der KPR(b) im MaÈrz 1921', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 35 (1987), No. 1, pp. 36±58. A unique study of the origins and aims of the Democratic Centralists and of the tactics and line they pursued in their critique of party policy at the Tenth Party Conference. The article is based upon published sources.

3736 Felshtinsky, Iu. G. `Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin and the Left Opposition in the USSR, 1918±1928', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 31 (1990), No. 4, pp. 569±578. Utilizing materials from the Trotsky Archives of the Houghton Library, the author briefly explores the sources of opposition and factionalism on the left of the party.

3742 Kowalski, R. I. The Bolshevik Party in Conflict: The Left Communist Opposition of 1918. London: Macmillan, 1991. x + 244 pp. A closely argued study of the ideological underpinnings of the Left Communist movement, arguing that the origin of Bukharin and its other leaders' disagreements with Lenin lay in the long-term debate about the nature of world imperialism. Elements of the final chapter, which assesses the degree of support for the movement in various areas of the country, appeared earlier as Kowalski, R. I. `The Left Communist Movement of 1918: A Preliminary Analysis of Its Strengths', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 12 (1986), pp. 27±63.

3737 Frank, P. and Kirkham, B. C. `The Revival of Pravda in 1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 20 (1968±1969), No. 3, pp. 366±368. Concentrating on the role of A. G. Shliapnikov, the authors chart the revival of the party's central organ as a facet of the rivalry of the Bolshevik Petersburg Committee and Russian Bureau in the period 2 to 4 March 1917.

3743 Longley, D. A. `The Divisions in the Bolshevik Party in March 1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 24 (1972± 1973), No. 1, pp. 61±76. This important article examines and explains the contrasting responses to the outcome of the February Revolution between four sections of the party in Petrograd: the Vyborg District Committee, the Petersburg Committee, the Russian Bureau of the Central Committee and `the Pravda group' (i.e. the Muranov±Stalin±Kamenev editorialship).

3738 Fuhrmann, J. T. `Lenin and Privilege', The Historian Vol. 51 (1989), No. 3, pp. 379±401. An interesting if somewhat schematic discussion of the privileges enjoyed by members of the Bolshevik leadership after October 1917 and the discussions and rationalizations surrounding the granting of them. 3739 Gitelman, Z. Jewish Nationality and Soviet Politics: The Jewish Section of the CPSU, 1917±1930. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1972. 573 pp. An in-depth study of the Evsektsy, viewing them as agencies for the assimilation, denationalization and Bolshevization of the Soviet Jews.

3744 Longley, D. `Some Historiographical Problems of Bolshevik Party History (The Kronstadt Bolsheviks in March 1917)', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 22 (1975), No. 4, pp. 494±514. Drawing inspiration from an article published in 1970 by the Soviet historian E. N. Burdzhalov, the author of this stimulating piece examines previous Soviet accounts of events in the Bolshevik Party at Kronstadt during and immediately following the February Revolution. He concludes that the Kronstadt organization was not very powerful prior to the revolution and that building a strong organization was problematic; that the inner-party struggle in Petrograd was extended to Kronstadt; that relations between the Bolsheviks and other parties were

3740 Holmes, L. `For the Revolution Redeemed: The Workers' Opposition in the Bolshevik Party, 1919±1921', Carl Beck Papers in Russian and East European Studies No. 802 (1990). 46 pp. Based largely upon contemporary newspapers and journals, this short but thorough account is the only dedicated study in English of its important subject. The author, stressing the leading ideological and organizational role in the movement of A. G. Shliapnikov, finds that the Workers' Opposition 378

3750 Service, R. The Bolshevik Party in Revolution: A Study in Organizational Change, 1917±1923. London: Macmillan, 1979. 246 pp. A detailed, carefully researched and vigorously written revisionist study of the party's `organizational metamorphosis', demonstrating its evolution from an anarchic group in 1917, in touch with its mass base, to a disciplined bureaucratic eÂlite at the end of the civil war. For Service, the turning point came in 1919 when, with the party acting as a mobilization agency for the civil war, its social foundations were changed with an influx of peasants at the bottom and high-handed military commanders at the middle and upper levels.

3745 Marie, J.-J. `L'activiteÂ du ComiteÂ de PeÂtersbourg du parti bolchevique entre feÂvrier et octobre 1917', Cahiers LeÂon Trotsky Vol. 24 (1985), pp. 37± 62. On the basis of published Soviet works of the 1920s and 1960s, the author charts history of the Petersburg Committee in 1917, concentrating upon its constitution, membership, organization, finances and publications. 3746 Neuweld, M. `The Origins of the Communist Control Commission', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 18 (1959), No. 3, pp. 315±333. A detailed examination of the origins and evolution of the CCC in the period 1920 to 1925, focusing upon how the organization became a key tool for the extension of Stalin's control over the party.

3751 Service, R. `The Bolsheviks on Political Campaign in 1917: A Case Study of the War Question', in E. R. Frankel, J. Frankel and B. Knei-Paz (eds) Revolution in Russia: Reassessments of 1917. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 304±325. This piece includes important analysis of and interesting speculation upon Lenin and other Bolshevik leaders' changing attitudes, pre-October, to the possibility of a Soviet government waging a revolutionary war ± the issue which, in early 1918, was to exercise the party so much in the debates over the signing of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk.

3747 Rigby, T. H. `The Origins of the Nomenklatura System', in I. Auerbach, A. Hillgruber and G. Schramm (eds) Felder und Vorfelder russischer Geschichte. Studien zu Ehren von Peter Scheibert. Freiberg: Verlag Rombach, 1985. pp. 241±254. This brief chapter incudes analysis of the changes in party personnel and personnel management in the years 1919 to 1922. See also Rigby, T. H.

New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 271±297. An argument that the paradigms of Bolshevism `began to ``nationalize'' ' from the first months of Soviet rule, as the new reÂgime turned its attention from world revolution to a concentration on the construction of revolutionary state. For the author, this evolution paralleled the development of `Ustrialovism', National Bolshevism and Eurasianism among the eÂmigreÂ community.

3748 Sakwa, R. `Party and Society in Moscow during the Civil War', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 10 (1984), pp. 60±74. A brief examination of the causes of the weakness of the Moscow Bolshevik organization in the civilwar years. 3749 Sakwa, R. `The Perestroika of the Party in 1921±1922: The Case of Moscow', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 2 (1989), No. 1, pp. 5±30. On the basis of a study of the Moscow region, the author concludes that Lenin's struggle to introduce the NEP was won relatively easily because `the tide of events reflected the flow of social and political realities and Bolshevik consciousness'. Contrasts are made with Gorbachev's introduction of perestroika. See also Sakwa, R. The Party and Opposition in Moscow, 1920±early 1921. Colchester: Russian and Soviet Studies Centre (Discussion Paper Series, No. 7), 1986. 31 pp.

3753 Snow, R. E. The Bolsheviks in Siberia, 1917± 1918. London: Associated University Press, 1977. 269 pp. A unique and important study of the party's operations at a local level during the revolution, the aim of which is to establish that, contrary to the claims of Soviet historians regarding the guiding role of Lenin and the Central Committee, in the important railroad towns of Siberia, Siberian Bolsheviks obeyed party directives only when it suited them to do so and adapted their strategies and tactics to their own peculiar situations and circumstances. The volume is based primarily upon published Soviet sources. 379

3754 . 19 The Bolsheviks 3758 United States Committee on Public Information The German±Bolshevik Conspiracy. Washington, DC: n.p. [War Information Series (No. 20)], 1918. 30 pp. This publication of the Creel Committee contains translations of the so-called `Sisson Documents', together with facsimiles of eighteen of the originals, together with annotations, related materials and a general introduction.

3754 Ward, C. D. `The Communist Left in Russia, 1918±1930', International Review (1977), No. 8, pp. 25±34; No. 9, pp. 2±8. Not written for scholarly purposes, but to initiate discussion within the International Communist Current (whose publication International Review was), the purpose of this highly schematic and overdeterministic (but not uninteresting) piece was to demonstrate a direct continuity between what Bolshevism originally was and what the Left Communists became in the 1920s ± Bolshevism, that is, during the `heroic years' of the revolution and civil war and the Left Communists, conversely, after what the author likes to refer to as Bolshevism's `degeneration'.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 3759 Mayer, G. Erinnerungen vom Journalisten zum Historiker der Deutschen Arbeiterbewegung. ZuÈrich/ Vienna: Europa Verlag, 1949. 376 pp. The memoirs of the historian and SPD sympathizer include a wealth of information upon international socialism during the war, including the first published evidence that Karl Moor was a German agent.

3755 Williams, R. C. `Childhood Diseases: Lenin on ``Left'' Bolshevism', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 8 (1982), pp. 38±48. An examination of Lenin's 1920 pamphlet, which argues that his underlying concern in publishing it `was not the control of European communism in the future', as is often argued, but to exorcise the ghost of `the syndicalist experience of Russian Bolshevism in the past'. Also important to Lenin, notes Williams, was that syndicalist elements in the Russian and European parties should not be allowed to interfere with Soviet diplomatic and trade links.

The Bolsheviks and the Germans . 3774 A discussion of the case, which utilizes documents from the Zeman publication [2468], but which finds Trotsky's refutations of the charges (in [273] and [588]) to be `bogus' largely on the basis of the authors intuition. Carmichael also argues that the German `subsidy' played a significant role in the Bolsheviks' seizure of power.

frustrating: in telling the story of the Russian revolutionaries' utilization of Scandinavia for links to Europe, the author, a gifted linguist, refers to a lot of intriguing events and personalities (not least those involved in the `German money' scandal of 1917, such as Joseph FuÈrstenberg and Alexander KeskuÈla), but provides not a single footnote for the historian to follow up (although there is a bibliography).

3764 Carmichael, J. `Lenin + ? Equals Trotsky: Behind the Bolshevik Putsch', Midstream Vol. 21 (1975), No. 10, pp. 20±34 In this piece the author concentrates upon the role played by Parvus in procuring German assistance for Lenin.

3766 Dyer, P. W. `German Support of Lenin during World War I', Australian Journal of Politics and History Vol. 30 (1984), No. 1, pp. 46±55. Reviewing evidence from published sources (both contemporary and historical) and materials from the German archives published in Zeman [2468], the author argues that although the Bolsheviks `willingly accepted German money to advance their own goals' (at least fifteen million marks after October 1917 and possibly further funds before that date), they `were in no way conscious agents of the German army'.

3773 Haas, L. Carl Vital Moor, 1852±1932: Ein Leben fuÈr Marx und Lenin. ZuÈrich: Benziger, 1970. 373 pp. This attempt to `elucidate a topic in a scholarly fashion rather than engineer some form of political degeneration' is well-referenced and contains a substantial collection of documents. The narrative occasionally borders on the verbose, but demonstrates that much of Moor's life was characterized by futility and disappointment. The substantial constraints placed upon Haas's access to extant sources and the issue of the missing Moor estate notwithstanding, this monograph is, therefore, likely to remain the standard text.

Exploring the nature of German support for Lenin during the First World War, the author draws upon the published works of Zeman [2468] and Hahlweg [3756], unpublished archival treasures from Copenhagen, Stockholm and elsewhere, and interviews with KeskuÈla himself ± a theretofore neglected living document, still intellectually vigorous in 1961 at the age of seventy-nine.

Appended to this article is the notorious telegram from KuÈhlmann to the Kaiser of December 1917, referring to the transfer of funds to the Bolsheviks. In the article itself the author states: `Now that the fact of German financial aid is established there is even less reason to believe that Lenin was a German agent'.

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1968. pp. 63±88. In this piece the author presents a typically provocative statement of the case for believing that Germany's Revolutionierungspolitik of 1914 to 1917 was a significant factor in the collapse of both tsarism and the Provisional Government.

A popular history of Lenin's journey from Switzerland to Petrograd in early 1917 and of his subsequent activities down to October. This rather curious amalgam of speculation, dramatized reconstruction and thorough documentation seeks to prove that the Bolsheviks' `establishment of a socialist state . . . was possible only by German cooperation, a German train and the massive German finance that followed it'. 3780 Platten, F.

An effort to appraise the authenticity and significance of the notorious collection, purchased by an American agent in Petrograd in early 1918 (see United States Committee on Public Information [3758] and Sisson [508]), which purported to show that the Bolsheviks were taking direct orders from the German General Staff. Kennan makes a convincing case for believing that the documents were forgeries executed, for the most part, by the mysterious adventurer A. M. Ossendowski.

3782 Schurer, H. `Karl Moor: German Agent and Friend of Lenin', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 5 (1970), No. 2, pp. 131±152. A carefully reconstructed account of Moor's activities as a double agent, including his infiltration of the Zimmerwaldists, his part in the German± Bolshevik negotiations of 1918, and his manipulation of Radek during the latter's Berlin imprisonment of 1918 to 1919. Much of the documentary material utilized is from SchuÈddekopf, O. E. `Deutschland zwischen Ost und West.

Included also are an enquiry into the origins of the telegrams and a painstaking textual analysis of them, on the basis of which Lyandres concludes that they contained `no evidence' of the transfer of German funds to the Bolsheviks via Scandinavia.

Historiography 3790 Goldberg, H. J. `Goldman and Berkman View the Bolshevik Regime', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 53 (1975), pp. 272±276. On the basis of their letters of 1920 to 1921, the author finds that, contrary to the generally accepted view that the leading anarchists experienced disillusionment with the Bolshevik reÂgime immediately upon their arrival in Russia, Goldman and Berkman lost their faith in the revolutionary potential of the Bolsheviks only after the suppression of the Kronstadt rebellion.

3794 Skirda, A. Les Anarchistes dans la reÂvolution russe. Paris: EÂditions de la TeÃte de Feuilles, 1973. 186 pp. Following an introduction (in which the author, a French anarchist, reviews such subjects as the Soviet historiography of anarchism in the revolution, the participation of anarchists in the October rising, the anarchistic elements of Leninism, the role of factory committees in 1917 and the post-October breach between the anarchists and the Bolsheviks) there are presented in this volume a judicious selection of documents and first-hand accounts: `Les anarchistes dans la ReÂvolution Russe', by A.

A misleadingly entitled piece which, in fact, offers a well-written, carefully footnoted survey of the historiography of the Kadets and their `quest for the masses', concluded by some general remarks summarizing the research on which the author's more specialist publications draw (see Galai [3814]).

In this article Bohn offers a painstakingly researched and detailed reconstruction of the circumstances surrounding Miliukov's `Stupidity or Treason?' speech attacking StuÈrmer's government at the opening meeting of the Fourth State Duma's first session on 1 November 1916, arguing that, far from seeking to initiate a revolutionary upheaval, Miliukov in fact hoped that the tsarist reÂgime could be stabilized by scapegoating StuÈrmer and the `German' faction which was thought to be dominating the Court.

A respectful obituary which focuses upon Miliukov's activities as a historian and as a politician and on his stance, in both fields, regarding Russia's `peculiarity'. Elkin argues that Miliukov `overcame this controversy in a synthesis', holding Russian and Western developments to be `similar in principle but different in pace'. 3812 Fischer, G.

Picking up on a comment made by N. Berdaiev in 1920, Breuillard's point of departure is the following question: `Was it the Kadets or the Bolsheviks who proposed the more utopian, if not chimerical, system for Russia?' Drawing on both published and unpublished writings by Miliukov, she concludes that although both parties shared a substantial `Westernizing' tendency, `the liberals were the true revolutionaries', in that `establishing the rule of law ran contrary to centuries of submission' in Russia. The Bolsheviks, on the other hand, `by replacing one authoritarian regime by another', were merely `swimming with the tide'.

On the basis of materials from Soviet archives, the author claims that the `restrained radicalism' of the liberal activists in the unions by late 1916 was in marked contrast to the `pusillanimity' of the leaders of the Progressive Bloc and was crucial in preparing for the relatively peaceful transfer of power throughout Russia after the February Revolution.

3820 Leontovitsch, V. Geschichte des Liberalismus in Russland. Frankfurt-am-Main: Klostermann, 1957. xv + 426 pp. Despite its lack of a bibliography, this is a wellreferenced study, charting developments in Russian liberal thought and activity from 1762 to 1907. 3821 Pearson, R. The Russian Moderates and the Crisis of Tsarism, 1914±1917. London: Macmillan, 1977. x + 208 pp. This concise study of the political manoeuvrings of the Kadets, the Octobrists and the Progressive Bloc between 1914 and the February Revolution, based upon Soviet publications and tsarist secret police and other contemporary governmental papers, reveals the fissiparousness of the movement and concludes that, even by 1917, Russian liberalism was finished.

3816 Goldenweiser, A. `P. Miliukov: Historian and Statesman', Russian Review Vol. 16 (1957), No. 2, pp. 3±14. A brief, admiring review of Miliukov's political career (little is actually said of his work as a historian), which was inspired by the Chekov publishing house of New York's republication of Miliukov's memoirs in 1956. 3817 Hamm, M. F. `Liberal Politics in Wartime Russia: An Analysis of the Progressive Bloc', Slavic Review Vol. 33 (1974), No. 3, pp. 453±468. Published contemporary and historical sources form the basis of this examination of the origins, purpose and performance of the wartime coalition of the Fourth State Duma. The author's conclusion is that because of its political passivity and fear of fomenting anarchy in the country, the Bloc failed to use the Duma as an effective forum either for criticizing the government or for maintaining national unity.

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1980. xx + 525 pp. This second volume of the author's biography of the liberal thinker uses more or less every possible source by or about Struve (including archives and interviews) to detail his life as a Kadet politician, publicist, economic theorist and editor in war, revolution, civil war and emigration. Pipes makes far-reaching claims for Struve as `far and away the most powerful intellect produced by Russia in the twentieth century'. See also Pipes, R. `P. Struve et la ReÂvolution russe', Contrat social Vol. 11 (1967), No. 1, pp. 13±17; and Pipes, R. `Peter B. Struve: The Sources of His Liberal Russian Nationalism', in C. E. Timberlake (ed.)

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1955, pp. 129±143. A comparison of two leading Kadets as exemplar of the merging in that party of two quite separate liberal traditions: zemstvo liberals and liberal-minded professionals. The author concludes that, as the Russian crisis mounted after 1905, Maklakov, like many of the zemstvo type, tended in his politics to `minimize the danger of reaction', while Miliukov 387

The first part of this now dated survey (by a Kadet leader of zemstvo-liberal background) covers the period 1855 to 1891; the second covers the period 1891 to 1905. 3828 Rosenberg, W. G. `Russian Liberals and the Bolshevik Coup', Journal of Modern History Vol. 40 (1968), No. 3, pp. 328±347. A revealing examination of the Kadets' gradual and `reluctant' acceptance, over the period October 1917 to January 1918, that for a meaningful struggle against Bolshevism the legal authorities of 1917 (city dumas, the Constituent Assembly, etc.) would be ineffective and that the party's commitment to liberal concepts of legality and political legitimacy would have to be temporarily replaced by support for a military dictatorship.

A thoughtful and perceptive analysis of the nature of the liberal movement in Russia together with some suggestions as to the reasons for the subordinate role it played in the intellectual, political, and social history of Imperial Russia during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

3829 Rosenberg, W. G. Liberals and the Russian Revolution: The Constitutional Democratic Party, 1917±1921. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1974. xiv + 534 pp. Apart from being the definitive work on Kadet policy and activity in the revolutionary period, this immensely detailed and impeccably scholarly monograph, strongly critical of the Kadets, is essential reading for any student of the history of the reÂgimes in which members of the party were involved ± notably the Provisional Government of 1917, and the White governments of Kolchak, Denikin and Wrangel.

A Russian European: Paul Miliukov in Russian Politics. Notre Dame, IN: University of Notre Dame Press, 1969. xviii + 373 pp. A sympathetic account of Miliukov's political career, focusing upon the years 1905 to 1917.

whom he closely sympathized, and other parties of the centre and right in the Fourth Duma. The piece includes a telling pen-portrait of Miliukov: `a man who has repeatedly displayed a marked absence of political tact and judgement', `devoid of imagination', `strangely ignorant of human nature and remote from real life', `incapable of organizing action of a grand scale', and `provincial in his ignorance of the ways of the big world'.

Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1996. xix + 379 pp. A diligently researched and carefully argued study of Miliukov's public life, providing an original analysis of his political and historical thought (with particular regard to nationalism and the national question). The author made extensive use of records of the Kadet Central Committee and party conferences and private correspondence held in Russian archives to illuminate Miliukov's role in formulating Kadet policy and the deep divisions within the party leadership.

Bibliography 3837 Bourgina, A. M. Russian Social Democracy, the Menshevik Movement: A Bibliography. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1968. 391 pp. A valuable research tool, listing the publications of individual figures, groups and agencies of the party in Russia, Europe and the USA, with the greatest concentration on the period 1903 to 1923. A particularly meritorious feature of the work is its identification of the numerous pseudonyms used by Menshevik writers (Martov, for example used seventeen and Valentinov, fifteen noms de plume). Despite the implication of its title, the work does not list works about Menshevism by non-Mensheviks.

Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1963. x + 400 pp. An outstanding scholarly biography, based upon a mass of source materials, which in a sympathetic but detached manner throws light on all the important details of Plekhanov's life, while at the same time making a fundamental contribution to the history of the Second International and of Russian Social Democracy. 3848 Baron, S.

3850 Belfer, E. `Plekhanov and the First World War', Slavic and Soviet Series Vol. 3 (1978), No. 1, pp. 48±57. Analysing Plekhanov's attitude to the war on the basis of his published statements, the author argues, not altogether convincingly, that his defencism in 1914 `cannot be disassociated from his general doctrine; both were based upon his profound faith in the West, and in the historic role of bourgeois liberalism'.

A concise review of the political thought of the veteran Social Democrat, concentrating upon what the author regards as a dominant theme of her life, and one which transcended her conversion from Populism to Marxism ± `an altruism which demanded that the affluent and educated help redistribute the material and intellectual resources of society'. Her reactions to the October Revolution are also briefly described.

3856 Deutscher, I. `The Mensheviks', in I. Deutscher Ironies of History: Essays on Contemporary Communism. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1966. pp. 207±225. Collected here are three short pieces (of eminently readable commentary, rather than analysis), originally published in the Listener in 1964 to 1965: `George Plekhanov', `The DeÂbaÃcle of 1917', and `Exile and Debasement'. In them Deutscher compares the relationship between Plekhanov and Lenin to that between Erasmus and Luther, argues that in 1917 `it was not only the Bolshevik insurrection which defeated [the Mensheviks] ± their own moral deÂbaÃcle overwhelmed them as well', and contends that `Martov's ghost must be weeping' over the final schism in the party after his death, as epitomized by the rival stances of Dan and Abramovitch.

3852 Berlin, I. `Le ``peÁre'' du marxisme russe', Contrat social Vol. 1 (1957), No. 5, pp. 293±297.

Lenin and the Mensheviks: The Persecution of the Socialists under Bolshevism. Boulder, CO: Westview Press, 1987. viii + 216 pp. Focusing upon the civil-war years, the Red Terror and the penal system, the author (the eÂmigreÂ daughter of a leading Menshevik couple) presents a series of indignant and rather disjointed and rambling essays on the Bolsheviks' repression of not only of her parents' party but also the SocialistsRevolutionaries, anarchists and other opposition groups.

A brief biographical sketch of Tsereteli followed by a consideration of the origins and nature of his pre1917 thinking with regard to the social content and political shape of the coming revolution. In particular, the author emphasizes the influence of Tsereteli's notion of a union of `the vital forces of the nation' upon his political activity and outlook in 1917.

3854 Brovkin, V. The Mensheviks after October: Socialist Opposition and the Rise of the Bolshevik Dictatorship. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1987. xviii + 329 pp. Covering the period October 1917 to October 1918, in a work no less important for being overtly sympathetic to the party which forms its subject, the author argues that after a painful period of readjustment to the new reÂgime the Mensheviks were able to capitalize on working-class disenchantment with the Bolsheviks to mount a credible democratic challenge to them at both national and local levels.

Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1989. xvii + 452 pp. A detailed study of the Menshevik leaders' role in the Petrograd Soviet, the VTsIK and the Provisional Government and of their relations with workers and industrialists. The author quite successfully debunks the stereotyped image of the party being hidebound by Marxist orthodoxy, stressing instead its political flexibility, and explains its failure to provide an alternative to Bolshevism in terms of its moderate self-image, its commitment to civil peace, and its reading of the events of 1905. See also Galili y Garcia, Z. `Workers, Industrialists and the Menshevik Mediators: Labour Conflicts in Petrograd, 1917', Russian History Vol. 16 (1989), Nos 2±4, pp. 239±261.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1987. ix + 515 pp. This beautifully produced volume includes the edited transcripts of interviews (conducted by Leopold Haimson between 1960 and 1965) with L. O. Dan, B. I. Nicolaevsky and Iu. P. Denike in which the informants trace their life histories and shed significant light upon the development of Menshevik political culture. It is of note that both Nicolaevsky and Denike were professional historians, as a consequence of which their contributions are wellinformed and articulate. The lengthy and thoughtful introduction and extensive notes provide a wealth of factual and biographical information relating to the Menshevik party and its members.

3860 Getzler, I. Martov: A Political Biography of a Russian Social Democrat. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1967. viii + 246 pp. A well-written and thoroughly documented political biography, sympathetically critical of its subject. Apart from detailing the life and political ideas of Martov, Getzler provides an extended and useful analysis of the origins of the Mensheviks' notoriously dogmatic interpretation of Marxism, interestingly concluding that one factor was the Jewish origin of a number of the party's leaders. 3861 Getzler, I. `The Mensheviks', Problems of Communism Vol. 16 (1967), pp. 15±29. A useful, concise summary of the party's history from 1903 to 1921. See also Getzler, I. `Les MencheÂviks', Contrat social Vol. 12 (1968), Nos 2± 3, pp. 123±136.

An examination of the Menshevik resurgence in Moscow during the crisis in Party±working-class relations during the winter of 1921 to 1922 and of the impact it had upon the reÂgime's decision to offer short-term concessions to the workers' demands.

Largely on the basis of Martov's letters and the protocols of Executive Committee of the Petrograd Soviet, recently made available in Russia, the author argues that although Martov's policies on the two major issues of 1917 ± the question of power and the question of the war ± were a credible alternative to those of both official Menshevism and the Bolsheviks, the fatal weaknesses of his personality, `notably his indecisiveness', ruled him out as being a successful political leader.

Paris: Anthropos, 1988. v + 334 pp. A rather inferior political biography of Tsereteli, with an emphasis on his role in 1917, which relies heavily on the subject's own memoirs.

3871 Medlin, V. D. `Tseretelli and the Mensheviks in 1917', Rocky Mountain Social Science Journal Vol. 9 (1972), pp. 51±59. A brief review of Menshevik tactics and strategy in 1917 and of the role of Tsereteli, contending that the Menshevik leader, although a `brilliant rival' to Lenin, failed because he lacked the `tight-knit party organization' of the Bolsheviks.

3868 Liebich, A. `Diverging Paths: Menshevik Itineraries in the Aftermath of the Revolution', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 4 (1991), No. 1, pp. 28±37. The author examines and contrasts the attitudes which three leading Mensheviks (Ivan Maiskii, Fedor Dan and Iulii Martov) chose to adopt towards the Bolshevik power in the aftermath of October 1917, arguing that the choices were intensely personal ones.

3872 Naarden, B. Socialist Europe and Revolutionary Russia: Perceptions and Prejudices, 1848±1923. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. 595 pp. In part cultural history, in part a history of the Menshevik movement and in part a history of the political careers of figures such as Axelrod, Kautsky and Martov, the sections of this complex work dealing with the revolutionary period focus upon the relations between Western socialist parties and the Mensheviks.

3869 Liebich, A. From the Other Shore: Russian Social Democracy After 1921. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1997. xi + 476 pp. In this lucid, even-handed, and comprehensive `collective biography' of the `Menshevik family' in exile, which is based upon a mass of published and unpublished materials, the author provides one of the fullest accounts of pre-1921 Menshevik thought and action, and then proceeds to trace the fate of the Menshevik leaders in Berlin, Paris and New York, and to demonstrate how the majority of them, influenced by Martov, continued to cling to a revolutionary (rather than reformist) line, despite having lost out to the Bolsheviks in 1917. The work also examines the Menshevik exiles' strong influence upon Western perceptions of Soviet Russia, and includes an excellent bibliography of Menshevikauthored works on the revolution and on Soviet Russia.

3873 Reisser, T. Menschewismus und Nep (1921± 1928). Diskussion einer demokratischen Alternative. MuÈnster: Lit, 1996. v + 267 pp. An evaluation of the socialist alternatives the Mensheviks offered to the Bolshevik dictatorship which focuses on the origins of the Mensheviks' model of a New Economic Policy, as it was discussed, drafted and presented in the spring of 1921. The author concludes that neither left-wing nor rightwing Menshevik policies offered a real alternative to Lenin. 3874 Roobol, W. H. Tsereteli ± A Democrat in the Russian Revolution: A Political Biography (transl. by P. Hyams and L. Richards). The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1976. xii + 273 pp. The author's diligent mining of the published and unpublished sources (including Tsereteli's papers and recorded conversations at the Hoover Institution and the International Institute of Social History) resulted in this fair, informative and clear account of Tsereteli's public life. The author focuses in particular upon Siberian Zimmerwaldism and Tsereteli's role in 1917 and in independent Georgia, although Irakli's reportedly attractive and sparkling personality eluded him. 3875 Schapiro, L. `The Mensheviks', in E. Dahrendorf (ed.) Russian Studies: Leonard Schapiro (introd. by H. Willets). London: Collins Harvill, 1986. pp. 253±265.

3881 Cross, T. B. `The Purposes of Revolution: Chernov in 1917', Russian Review Vol. 26 (1967), No. 4, pp. 351±360. Taking issue with those who would criticize the SRs for being unequal to the task of organizing the popular energies released in 1917, the author argues that the party's actions in 1917 to 1918 were `consistent with the objectives of revolution worked out in the mainstream of Russian radical thought' since the 1870s: namely, `that revolution [should] result in the creation of legislative and executive institutions truly representative of popular demands'.

Entangled in Terror: The Azef Affair and the Russian Revolution. Wilmington: Scholarly Resources Inc., 2000. ix + 247 pp. In this readable and well-structured volume the author utilizes an impressive array of archival and published materials to successfully re-evaluate the role of Azef in the revolutionary movement and the SR terrorist organization, providing insights into his career as a double agent and the circumstances of his exposure. Geifman asserts that repercussions of the affair were more serious for the PSR itself than for the tsarist government, while refuting the commonly held view that Azef acted as an agent provocateur. The work is somewhat marred, however, by Geifman's speculative, unconvincing and tenuous attempts to assess her subject's personality, psychology and motivations through the medium of contemporary psychological writing.

The article is based upon materials of the SR archives in Amsterdam. 3889 Knight, A. `Female Terrorists in the Russian SR Party', Russian Review Vol. 38 (1979), No. 1, pp. 139±159. The author argues that the women who took part in SR terrorism `were not always motivated by rational political concerns'. She finds that the memoirs of Ekaterina Breshkovskaia, Zinaida Konopliannikova, Dora Brilliant, Maria Spiridonova et al. and contemporary accounts of their activities reveal `the complex interplay of emotional, psychological and social factors' inspiring their terrorism and `bring to light certain female attributes that lend themselves well to terrorism'. 3890 MelancËon, M. The Socialist Revolutionaries and the Russian Anti-War Movement, 1914±1917. Columbus: Ohio State University Press, 1990. xii + 368 pp. In this thought-provoking and most thoroughly researched volume the author argues that, on the ground in Russia, revolutionaries as a whole worked actively against the war and the autocracy and that the SRs played a leading role in this cross-party movement. The work also surveys the ideas and actions of the SRs in emigration, in Moscow and Petrograd, at the front and in the provinces during the war years, as well as analysing the attitudes of other revolutionary groups (Mensheviks, Mezhraiontsy and Anarchists) and the part played by the SRs and other socialists in the February Revolution.

Helsinki: Finnish Historical Society, 1988. 169 pp. Although dealing with the pre-war years, this volume has important implications regarding the actions of the SRs in 1917. The author argues that the leadership of the party did not regard Chernov's party programme of 1906 as their main agrarian policy statement down to 1917; rather, it was the land law proposal of the 104 in the Second Duma (associated not with Chernov but with P. Vikhliaev and N. I. Rakitnikov), with its emphasis not on socialism but social egalitarianism, which guided their action ± including their attempt in 1917 to postpone the solution of the agrarian question until the meeting of the Constituent Assembly. 3887 Jansen, M.

S. `From Rhapsody to Threnody: Russia's Provisional Government in SocialistRevolutionary Eyes', Soviet and Post-Soviet Review Vol. 24 (1997), Nos 1±2, pp. 27±41. In this interesting piece the author discusses the variety of SR viewpoints on the question of the proper functions of the Provisional Government and on the question of its lifespan, noting that these ranged `from enthusiasm to fear and loathing', with the latter becoming rapidly more marked as the year 1917 progressed.

3895 Radkey, O. H. `An Attitude to Bolshevism: The Programme of Russian Social Revolutionism', Journal of Modern History Vol. 25 (1953), No. 1, pp. 25±39. An analysis of the origins, nature and implications of the SR programme (adopted at Imatra in Finland in early 1906 and remaining in place right through the revolutionary period), which the author characterizes as `more a declaration of general principles than a carefully thought-out plan of action' and as a fundamental weakness of the party.

3892 Perrie, M. `The Social Composition and Structure of the Social-Revolutionist Party before 1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 24 (1972±1973), No. 2, pp. 223±250. This analysis of the biographies over 1,000 party members presents a picture of the social composition and organization of the party as `a triple alliance of the three groups of ``workers'' . . . in Russian society': the intelligentsia, the industrial proletariat and the nonkulak peasantry. Details of the size of the party and its profile in terms of age and sex are also included.

The Sickle under the Hammer: Russian Socialist-Revolutionaries in the Early Months of Soviet Rule. New York: Columbia University Press, 1963. xii + 525 pp. In this occasionally over-emotional but extraordinarily detailed and erudite study of the ideology, struggles and plans of the Socialists-Revolutionaries, the author portrays the party's leaders as traitors to their followers, noting that the Right of the party virtually ceased to be socialist in anything but name during 1917, while the Left helped the Bolsheviks to seize and maintain power. The second volume, which like the first draws upon a vast array of published and unpublished materials, is notable for its claim that the SR majority in the Constituent Assembly was chimerical.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1976. xii + 216 pp. An illuminating study of the SRs' thoughts and actions regarding the land question from the late 1890s to the era of the Stolypin reforms, demonstrating how the rural violence of the years 1905 to 1906 posed lasting challenges to the assumptions about peasant desires to socialize the land which formed the basis of Chernov's party programme.

A concise elaboration of the debates on the use of a variety of types of terrorist acts within the SR Party and of the intra-party tensions caused by such acts, concluding that the intermediate position on terror adopted by the party leadership represented a compromise `not only between the different factions of the party, but also between neo-populist theory and the reality of the Russian revolution'.

The Party of Socialists-Revolutionaries (SRs) . 3905 Starting from a sample of 215 police agents affiliated to the SRs, the Social Democrats and the Anarchists, the author sketches their social backgrounds, working methods and influence (especially on the SRs), before concluding that their number was smaller than contemporaries believed and that infiltration of these parties by the police was (relatively) the most extensive among the Anarchists.

Presented here, with an introduction and annotations by Zohrab, are the intriguing reflections of the British journalist Harold Williams upon the SR leaders he knew personally as a correspondent in Russia. Surprisingly, he portrays Boris Savinkov in the most favourable manner (`a very able man', `keen and resolute', `extremely intelligent'), while characterizing Viktor Chernov as devious and untrustworthy, `a man of essentially mediocre intellectual capacity', and castigating Kerensky as `a second rate lawyer and a superficial parliamentary politician' who was entirely responsible, through his hysterical overreaction, for the consequences of the Kornilov Affair.

3899 Shub, D. `The Trial of the SRs', Russian Review Vol. 23 (1964), No. 4, pp. 362±369. A brief account of the course of the trial of twelve Socialist-Revolutionary leaders of June to August 1922.

New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 83±104. An account of the dilemmas faced by the mainstream of the SRs (and the Mensheviks) in the aftermath of the dissolution of the Constituent Assembly in January 1918. The author argues that the `severe institutional and organizational weaknesses' which hobbled both parties during this period, whatever their popularity, made the chances of their overthrowing the Bolsheviks virtually non-existent.

Utilizing the unpublished minutes of the Left-SRs' three congresses of 1918, the author chronicles the party's role in making available the institutional means for land socialization and explains the collapse of the party as a mixture of the repercussions of Mirbach's assassination, the party's `quixotic quest for internationalism', and ± most importantly ± the party's erratic and contradictory response to the introduction of the kombedy.

3901 Trapeznik, A. `V. M. Chernov, Marxism and the Agrarian Question', New Zealand Slavonic Journal (1997), pp. 41±66.

Cologne: BoÈhlau, 1994. 816 pp. This monumental monograph, based upon Russian and Western archival sources as well as a major trawl of published sources ± the bibliography alone runs to almost one hundred pages ± traces the origins of the Left-SRs' split with the SR mainstream to the debates between `internationalists' and `patriots' in 1914 before it chronologically surveys the Left-SRs' activities and relations with the Bolsheviks and the Soviet state from the October Revolution through the crises over the summoning of the Constituent Assembly and the Brest-Litovsk negotiations to the rising of July 1918 and its aftermath. The volume is notable for its unique analysis of the structure and workings of the Left-SRs as a party, on national and local levels, and for the author's contention that the Left-SRs have been unjustly maligned for naivety in Western historiography. The volume is usefully supplemented by brief biographies of leading LeftSRs and a region-by-region break-down of their activities and support.

3906 Katkov, G. `The Assassination of Count Mirbach, St Antony's Papers No. 12/Soviet Affairs No. 3 (1962), pp. 53±93. The author's typically controversial thesis is that Lenin instigated the ambassador's assassination as a means of eliminating Mirbach (after the ambassador had shifted to the support of anti-Bolshevik elements in Russia) and in order to provide a pretext for the crushing of the Left-SRs. The traditional interpretation of the Left-SRs' guilt, Katkov claims, came to prevail because it suited all parties: the Bolsheviks, the Germans and the Left-SRs. Frustratingly, the citation of sources in this article lacks scholarly precision.

After reviewing, on the basis of documents from the Russian archives, Spiridonova's political career in the years 1917 to 1920 and her subsequent years of exile and imprisonment, the author presents extracts from a letter she wrote to the NKVD from a Moscow prison cell in 1937. In this document the veteran terrorist and Left-SR provides some unique glimpses into the demise of the Left-SR Party after 1918. 3911 Senn, A. E. and Goldberg, H.

Arguing that the Left-SRs should not be regarded as unthinking `fellow travellers' of the Bolsheviks, the author of this piece offers a useful guide to and critique of Western and Soviet judgements on the party, chronicles its rise and fall, explains Left-SR critiques of Bolshevik practice from 1918 to 1921 and evaluates the party's own proposals for the construction of socialism in Russia. Appended are a list of Left-SR members of Sovnarkom of 1917 to 1918 and a party circular of October 1920 summoning members to support the Bolsheviks in the struggle against Poland.

Utilizing Russian archival materials relating to the 1922 trial of the SR leaders and their pre-trial interrogations, the author of this piece argues that the assassination attempt was organized by the SR terrorist G. I. Semenov, that Fania Kaplan was involved in the attempt (although she may not have actually done the shooting), and that the SR Central Committee's disapproval of Semenov's activities was neither as strong nor as consistent as the defendants were to maintain at the trial.

3908 Lyandres, S. `The 1918 Attempt on the Life of Lenin: A New Look at the Evidence', Slavic Review Vol. 48 (1989), No. 3, pp. 432±448. Highlighting the inconsistencies in published testimonies and records of interrogations, and reviewing the known facts about her life, the author concludes that, contrary to the Soviet version, the would-be assassin was not Fania Kaplan, and that Kaplan was an anarchist with no party affiliation to the SRs. He also suggests that Kaplan may, however, have been involved in the conspiracy, unwittingly used as `a decoy to protect the identities of those who actually fired the shots'.

Rather, in a rambling and unfocused manner, the author (himself a prominent Left-SR) provides snapshots of numerous themes ± among them, prison life in tsarist Russia and (most interestingly) the Left-SRs' part in the October Revolution and the early months of Soviet government.

A defence of Kerensky against his critics, who, in the view of Browder, denied the magnitude of Kerensky's role in the February Revolution because of the part he played in October: `The facts testify clearly to his perceptiveness, political acumen, and particularly to his unique inspirational contribution to the success of the [February] Revolution.' See also Browder, R. P. `A. F. Kerensky (1881±1970)', Russian Review Vol. 29 (1970), pp. 484±487.

3915 Swain, G. `Russia's Garibaldi: The Revolutionary Life of Mikhail Artemevich Muraviev', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 11 (1998), No. 2, pp. 54± 81. Piecing together what is known of the enigmatic Left-SR commander's career, the author uses materials from archives in Latvia to explain how it was that a man who in November 1917 was largely responsible for saving the October Revolution (through marshalling the troops which defeated Kerensky's forces at Pulkovo) could betray the Soviet government by allying himself with the Czechoslovak Legion on the Eastern Front in July 1917. The answer, argues Smith, lies in Muraviev's commitment to the struggle against autocracy and imperialism.

J. `Symbolism in Persuasion: The Influence of the Merezhkovskii Circle on the Rhetoric of Aleksandr Fedorovich Kerenskii', Canadian±American Slavic Studies Vol. 26 (1992), pp. 241± 265. An argument that Kerensky's oratory was profoundly influenced by the symbolist theorizing of the Merezhkovskii Circle, with the members of which he was closely acquainted, and that it was this which made him such a forceful and convincing speaker. 3920 Golikov, A. G. `The Kerensky Phenomenon', Russian Studies in History Vol. 33 (1994±1995), No. 3, pp. 43±66. Not an examination of Alexander Kerensky per se but an insightful and original analysis of the media hype surrounding him and his public image from March to October 1917, particularly in mass-circulation dailies such as Russkoe slovo.

3916 `W' `Count Mirbach's Assassination', Fortnightly Review No. 105 (1919), pp. 507±522. An unremarkable if readable second-hand account of Mirbach's assassination. The author predicts that the abortive rising of the Left-SRs `will be remembered as the revolution which was conceived in a theatre and ended in a theatre'.

3921 Kolonitskii, B. I. ` ``Comrade Kerensky'': The Antimonarchy Revolution and Images of the ``Leader of the People'' ', Anthropology and Archaeology of Eurasia Vol. 38 (1999), No. 2, pp. 27±57. An informative discussion of contemporary views of Kerensky (whom the author regards as the master `artistic politician-improvisor') and of the origins of the Kerensky cult.

MISCELLANEOUS POLITICAL PERSONALITIES

A. F. Kerensky 3917 Abraham, R. Alexander Kerensky: The First Love of the Revolution. London: Sidgwick & Jackson, 1992. xiii + 503 pp. The sole full-length biography of its subject in any language (although half the text is devoted to Kerensky's role in the political events of 1917, and only two short chapters to the fifty-three years he lived beyond that date). The work is sympathetic to Kerensky, but not uncritical. Particularly interesting are the sections dealing with Kerensky's `pivotal organizational role' among socialist and other conspirators during the war years, which, the author claims, `came close to precipitating a revolution of the masses around ``bourgeois'' leadership' in the summer of 1915.

3922 Mosse, W. E. `A. F. Kerensky and the Emancipation of Russian Jewry', Bulletin on Soviet and East European Jewish Affairs Vol. 6 (1970), No. 3, pp. 33±38. On the occasion of Kerensky's death, the author pays tribute to `an upright Russian democrat, idealist socialist and humanitarian', detailing his part in ending discrimination against the Jews in 1917 and concluding that `Jews everywhere have reason to honour his memory'. 3923 Soskice, P. `Kerensky As I See Him', New Zealand Slavonic Journal (1968), pp. 18±25. A sympathetic but not uncritical pen-portrait which tellingly argues that those very qualities which made Kerensky a successful lawyer (his emotional oratory and theatricality, his humanity, and his belief

3929 Onu, A. `Prince George Lvov', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 4 (1925±1926), pp. 168± 171. An admiring obituary of the first premier of the Provisional Government by one who knew him well ± Kerensky's secretary, Alexander Onu. For Onu, L'vov was `by nature as peaceful a man as ever lived'.

3924 Wilcox, E. H. `Kerensky and the Revolution', Atlantic Monthly Vol. 120 (1917), pp. 693±703. A slightly hagiographical, highly impressionistic characterization of Kerensky, who, proclaims the author, `can be called . . . the Prophet of the Revolution, the High Priest of Liberty'. Wilcox charges that Kerensky would have survived had he dealt more sternly with the Petrograd Soviet and had he more forcefully asserted the authority of the Provisional Government from the outset.

3930 Porter, T. E. `Prince Georgii Evgenevich Lvov: A Russian Public Servant', Canadian±American Slavic Studies Vol. 31 (1997), No. 4, pp. 375± 396. The closest thing to a biography of L'vov available in English, but one which, while providing interesting detail on his character and career, fails to explain convincingly how he emerged as prime minister in February 1917 and how he reacted to the events of the subsequent months.

A. I. Guchkov 3925 Gleason, W. Alexander Guchkov and the End of the Russian Empire. Philadelphia: The American Philosophical Society, 1983 (Transactions of the American Philosophical Society Vol. 73, No. 3). 90 pp. A brief and rather disappointing narrative, at its best in its coverage of the events of 1916 to 1917, especially the plot against the tsar and Guchkov's brief tenure as Minister of War in the First Provisional Government.

B. V. Savinkov 3931 Churchill, W. S. `Boris Savinkov', in W. S. Churchill Great Contemporaries. London: Thornton Butterworth Ltd, 1937. pp. 125±136. A glowing tribute to `a Terrorist for moderate aims', whom Churchill (who met Savinkov on several occasions) saw as displaying `the wisdom of a statesman, the qualities of a commander, the courage of a hero, and the endurance of a martyr', a man who in 1917 could have been `the appointed agent of Russian salvation'. This chapter, significantly, was withdrawn from later editions of the book.

3926 Legras, J. `A. I. Guchkov', Le monde slave (1936), Vol. 1, No. 2, pp. 268±272. A respectful obituary by a French friend of Guchkov who had been at university with him in Germany.

Drawing upon interviews with Guchkov carried out shortly before his death in 1935, Pares here provides a potted biography of the Octobrist leader, focusing upon his role in the February Revolution and his service as Minister of War in the First Provisional Government.

Clifton, NJ: Kingston Press, 1989. xxxvi + 249 pp. A detailed, if somewhat partial account of Savinkov's political activities from 1917 to the end of the Soviet±Polish War. The author, a Russified Pole, worked closely with Savinkov in the antiBolshevik struggle. Appended to the volume are five letters from Savinkov to Piøsudski of the period February 1920 to December 1921.

Presented here (in Russian) is a letter from Savinkov to Piøsudski of 29 December 1921, reporting on its author's meeting with Krasin, which Heller suggests goes some way towards proving that by this time Savinkov was working for the Soviets. See also the response, presenting further documents from British sources to question Heller's assertions: Watson, D.

3938 Palmer, S. W. `A Crisis of Faith: Boris Savinkov and the Fighting Organization (1903± 1912), Scottish Slavonic Review Vol. 18 (1992), pp. 35±53. In this piece the author argues that Savinkov's inability to reconcile his conscience with his participation in terrorism, together with the impact of the Azef Affair of 1909, led him to conclude that `he had spent his life in pursuit of an empty cause' and occasioned his `spiritual collapse' from 1909 to 1911 ± an event which was to mark him for the rest of his life.

An examination of Soviet publications dealing with the relationships of the Bolsheviks with other socialist parties during the early years of Soviet power, focusing less upon actual historical events and interparty relationships than upon their perceived significance in Soviet historical writings of the early 1970s.

3939 Spence, R. B. Boris Savinkov: Renegade on the Left. Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1991. v + 540 pp. This thoroughly researched and very readable scholarly biography of `the Hamlet of the Revolution' concentrates upon its enigmatic subject's role as Provisional Government commissar in 1917 (including his role in the Kornilov Affair) and his postOctober anti-Bolshevik activities both in Russia and abroad (particularly in Poland). The volume includes an extensive bibliography. See also Spence, R. B. `The ``Savinkov Affair'' Revisited', East European Quarterly Vol. 24 (1990), No. 1, pp. 21±45.

By examining the decisions made by the foremost Menshevik and SR leaders during two key periods (from October 1917 to mid-1918 and during the year 1921) through the prism of their articles and letters, the author finds that what paralysed them politically after the Bolshevik seizure of power was not Bolshevik repression but `the stark contrast between their theories of revolution and the realities of mass behaviour'.

The value of the work was only slightly diminished by the author's failure to consult the Bund archive in New York and by the absence of any treatment of the socio-cultural milieu in which the organization operated. 3950 Jablonowski, H. `Die russischen Rechtsparteien 1905±1917', in Russland-Studien. Gedenkschrift fuÈr Otto Hoetzsch (Schriftenreihe Osteuropa No. 3). Stuttgart: Deutsche Gesellschaft fuÈr Osteuropakunde, 1957, pp. 43±55. A rather sketchy survey that characterizes the demands of the political Right for a restoration of pure autocracy after 1905 as `remarkably stubborn and undiscerning' and emphasizes its `radical antisemitism', while arguing that a distinction needs to be drawn between those groups prepared to support the Progressive Bloc and those rigidly opposed to it.

New Brunswick, NJ: Rutgers University Press, 1980. xvii + 252 pp. An insightful and informative profile of the Nationalist Party, based upon western Russian newspapers (such as Kievlianin), electoral data and biographies of party leaders, from its foundation to its dissolution during the First World War. The author's thesis is that the Nationalists were the only truly modern political party to emerge from the Duma experiment.

Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1967. xix + 298 pp. Utilizing a broad range of sources (notably from the Bund archives and the holdings of YIVO), this well-documented if somewhat schematic analysis offers a good introduction to the history of the party, with heavy emphasis on the years of the First World War and the revolutionary period. Johnpoll argues that the Bund's politics remained futile because the party failed to realize that its only viable option would have been to influence the direction of the Polish state by becoming affiliated to the PPS, whereas the prospects of achieving unity with the communists were `more apparent than real'.

Using archival materials from Amsterdam and Stanford, the author relates the history of terrorism during the reign of Nicholas II, dwelling upon its cross-party nature and asserting that terrorism played a major part in weakening the fabric of the tsarist system and thereby made a significant contribution to the fall of the monarchy in 1917.

21 Workers and Urban Society GENERAL

The author argues that among the reasons why the revolution succeeded and why the Bolsheviks subsequently had problems legitimizing it was that individual Russian workers alternated in their everyday lives between `advanced' culture (educational improvement, subbotniki) and `rank-and-file' culture (drunkenness and coarse behaviour).

Historiography 3965 Perrie, M. `The Russian Working Class, 1905±1917', Theory and Society Vol. 16 (1987), No. 3, pp. 431±446. A stimulating review essay of some key works on the subject, including inter alios Bonnell [3971], Glickman [3979], Mandel [4000] and Smith [4005], in which Perrie confesses her `unease' with Koenker and Mandel's emphasis on the `rationality' of Russian workers' adherence to Bolshevism, because of its implication that `because the workers reached their conclusion gradually and ``rationally'', the conclusions were therefore in some sense ``correct'', and that the Bolshevik revolution was thereby legitimized'.

In this intriguing piece the author seeks to explore the use of swear words by workers `as a way of shedding light on the relationship of government and intelligentsia to the common people', and outlines the campaigns against bad language undertaken by the Imperial government after 1905 and the Bolsheviks after 1917.

Dutton & Co., 1941. 524 pp. A careful and generally well-informed comparison of workers and working conditions under the tsar and the Soviets, although somewhat marred by its author's overt anti-Sovietism.

3971 Bonnell, V. The Roots of Rebellion: Workers' Politics and Organization in St Petersburg and Moscow, 1900±1914. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1983. xxi + 560 pp. The author utilized extensive archival and memoir sources to create this important study of the growth of the trade union movement in the Russian capitals, focusing upon the social composition of the organizations and their ideology, and addressing the reasons for the marked radicalization of the workers' movement in the years 1912 to 1914. The work includes an abundance of tables and statistical material. See also Bonnell, V. E. `Radical Politics and Organized Labour in Pre-Revolutionary Moscow, 1905±1914', Journal of Social History Vol. 12 (1970), No. 2, pp. 282±300; and Bonnell, V.

An investigation of the `level of proletarianization' among those participants in the 1913 strike wave in St Petersburg whose internal passports were registered in the rural province of Pskov. Utilizing materials from Russian archives, and supporting the arguments of American revisionists of Russian labour history, the authors find that `more proletarization led to higher levels of labor militance'.

3972 Bonnell, V. E. (ed.) The Russian Worker: Life and Labor under the Tsarist Regime. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1983. xvii + 216 pp. A useful collection of five descriptions of working-class life in late imperial Russia (two by metalworkers of the capitals, one by an engineer at a textile mill at Pavlov, and two by intellectuals involved in the labour movement). The stories provide vivid depictions of and insights into the labour hierarchy and attitudes towards religion, management, working and living conditions, etc.

Postan (eds) The Cambridge Economic History of Europe, Vol. VII: The Industrial Economies: Capital, Labour and Enterprise. Part II: The United States, Japan and Russia. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1978. pp. 308±415. A general survey covering the economic history of Russia from the Petrine period to 1913, still instructive even if the data presented no longer stand critical scrutiny in their entirety. Crisp concludes that, the extant industrial growth notwithstanding, Russian development `was not fast enough to make up for the backlog of backwardness and to do more than nibble at the agricultural sector'. Consequently, the process of industrialization was `accompanied by a gradual erosion of the subsistence sector, but the majority of the population was not yet enrolled in an organized wage economy'.

3978 Engel, B. A. `Not by Bread Alone: Subsistence Riots in Russia during World War I', Journal of Modern History Vol. 69 (1997), No. 4, pp. 696±721. An intriguing examination of forms of popular protest in the years before the February Revolution, examining the social identity and expectancies of participants in subsistence riots and the gendered nature of popular actions. The author concludes that shortages not of bread but of sugar, meat, boots, and cloth sparked off most protests prior to February 1917 (indicating that rioters had `learned to take market products for granted'), and speculates that the reluctance of the Cossacks to fire on protestors during the February Revolution may be indicative of their recognition of the important new social role of women as the wives and mothers of men at the front.

Berkeley: University of California Press, 1984. xiii + 323 pp. An innovative, lucid and well-crafted feminist analysis of women workers, their working conditions, wages, expenditures and their participation in labour disputes in the last decades of tsarism. The author highlights the discrimination and prejudice to which women workers were subjected and criticizes the socialists for their failure to take due account of women's special interests.

Sapelli (eds) Strikes, Social Conflict and the First World War: An International Perspective (Annals Fondazione Giangiacomo Feltrinelli, Vol. 27). Milan: Feltrinelli, 1992. pp. 389±451. This study seeks to develop a comparative focus on the successive waves of strike activity in the period 1905 to 1907, between 1912 and the summer of 1914, and from the summer of 1915 to the events of February 1917. The bulk of the study is in the form of quantitative analysis, offering a wealth of specialized data. In the interpretative section the authors seek to gauge the extent to which `economic dislocations and deprivations' emerging from the onset of war actually contributed to `the specific patterns and dynamics of labour unrest' in Russia, tentatively concluding that, in fact, these patterns and dynamics had a momentum of their own that was more important with regard to the revolutionary outburst of 1917 than has generally been assumed.

3983 Hogan, H. Forging Revolution: Metalworkers, Managers, and the State in St. Petersburg, 1890±1914. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1993. xiv + 320 pp. A scholarly study, based on an impressive range of both published and unpublished sources, examining the situation of the metalworkers with particular reference to labour±management conflicts and, specifically, in terms of `the confrontation between tradition and modernity'. The author argues that the metalworkers were attracted to Bolshevism because `the uncompromising critique of polity and society it offered ``made sense'' to them on the basis of their lived experience'. Consequently, they 407

3984 Johnson, R. E. Peasant and Proletarian: The Working Class of Moscow in the Late Nineteenth Century. New Brunswick, NJ: Rutgers University Press, 1979. xii + 225 pp. The author's thesis is that the working class of Moscow and Moscow province in the last decades of the nineteenth century were neither peasants nor proletarians but a distinctive (and stable) compound of the two with long traditions.

A useful study of the history of the creation and development of the railwaymen's union (Vikzhel') and of the characteristics, policies and leadership with which it was equipped to meet the October crisis, throwing light upon the reasons for the failure of the union's attempt to reverse the Bolsheviks' seizure of power through strike action.

3985 McKean, R. B. St. Petersburg between the Revolutions: Workers and Revolutionaries, June 1907± February 1917. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1990. xv + 606 pp. An impressively detailed and erudite study of labour mobilization in St Petersburg and of the labour policies of the tsarist government and employers from 1905 to the February Revolution, notable for its convincing thesis that the extent of political radicalization among the workforce has been consistently exaggerated. The volume is based upon archival materials in Russia and the West and a mass of published primary and secondary sources. See also McKean, R. B. `Government, Employers and the Labour Movement in St Petersburg on the Eve of the First World War', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 12 (1986), pp. 65±94.

A very useful and very detailed chronological survey of the activities of the fabzavkomy from February to October 1917. The article is based upon published sources (almost all of them Soviet) and concentrates upon developments in Petrograd. 3990 Flenley, P. `Industrial Relations and the Economic Crisis of 1917', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 4 (1991), No. 2, pp. 184±209. In this penetrating study the author examines the nature of the economic crisis in the metal industry in 1917 and attempts to identify how this crisis undermined all attempts to reconcile the demands of workers and employers.

3986 Smith, S. A. `Workers and Civil Rights in Tsarist Russia, 1890±1917', in O. Crisp and L. Edmondson (eds) Civil Rights in Imperial Russia. Oxford: Clarendon, 1989. pp. 145±169. Picking up on the conventional perception of the pre-1917 Russian working class as being `more concerned with bread-and-butter issues than with issues of political rights', the author of this wellinformed study seeks not to overturn this perception `but rather to challenge it as being too monolithic and undifferentiated', finding that in fact Russian workers `regularly raised demands for civil and political rights after 1899'.

3991 Gill, G. J. `The Role of the Countryside in an Urban Revolution: A Short Note', Study Group on the Russian Revolution: Sbornik No. 2 (1976), pp. 44± 50. A brief review of how living standards, the food supply, etc. in Petrograd were damaged in 1917 by a mixture of the breakdown of the transportation system and `those actions, chiefly by peasants, cutting off the supplies at the source'.

Together these pieces constitute an intense (if somewhat more polemical than historical) exchange over the issue of the compatibility of the goals of factory committees and the Bolsheviks' attempts to centralize the economy over the winter of 1918 to 1919. (For a commentary on this exchange see Rosenberg [4026]).

in D. L. Ransel (ed.) The Family in Imperial Russia: New Lines of Historical Research. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1978. pp. 280±304. Analysing the October Revolution in Moscow, the author focuses upon the role and significance of urban youth groups and organizations as supporters of the Bolsheviks, making extensive use of contemporary Russian sources. 3997 Koenker, D. Moscow Workers and the 1917 Revolution. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1981. xv + 420 pp. An important socio-political history of the Moscow working class, based upon archival, memoir, newspaper and other published material, this volume dwells upon the influence of the economic crisis of 1917 and of residential segregation upon the workers' radicalization, the role of factory committees and trade unions and the influence of political parties. The work concludes with a survey of `Moscow's October'. See also Koenker, D. `The Evolution of Party Consciousness in 1917: The Case of the Moscow Workers', Soviet Studies Vol. 30 (1978), No. 1, pp. 38±62, wherein the author argues that the Bolsheviks owed their success less to the workers' acquisition of firm party-political convictions than to the fact that their programme corresponded to the radical mood of the moment.

3993 Hogan, H. `Conciliation Boards in Revolutionary Petrograd: Aspects of the Crisis of Labour± Management Relations in 1917', Russian History Vol. 9 (1982), No. 1, pp. 49±66. An exploration, through the prism of the activities of conciliation boards (primiritel'nye kamery), of the `depth and contours of social conflict' within Russian factories, with particular emphasis on the metalworking industry of the capital. The article is partly based upon materials from the Soviet archives. 3994 Husband, W. B. `Local Industry in Upheaval: The Ivanovo-Kineshma Strike of 1917', Slavic Review Vol. 47 (1988), No. 3, pp. 448±463. A detailed study of the provincial textile workers' strike of 21 October to 17 November 1917, demonstrating how Bolshevik-led organs at local level resisted the higher institutions spawned by the Bolshevik revolution. The author concludes that such `ambivalent institutional relationships after October provided but a fragile base for postrevolutionary consolidation'.

G. Rosenberg). Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1992. pp. 187±206. A study of working-class aspirations in Moscow which argues that, as a consequence of weakly developed notions of private property in Russia and the long tradition of state supervision of industry, it was hardly surprising that when factory owners betrayed the public's trusts workers sought to oust them and turn the plants over to those who would operate them responsibly.

3995 Kaiser, D. H. (ed.) The Workers' Revolution in Russia, 1917: The View from Below. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1987. 152 pp. A collection of papers relating to the urban history of the revolution. Some of them had already appeared elsewhere (notably Suny [133] and Rosenberg [4027]); Most useful are the contributions by Steve Smith and Diane Koenker, which present succinct analyses of developments among the working classes of Petrograd and Moscow respectively.

Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1989. xix + 393 pp. An impressive systematic analysis of strike activity throughout Russia (although there is a bias toward data from Moscow and Petrograd), based upon a computerized database of more than one thousand strikes. The authors demonstrate how strike activity changed across the course of the year and how, through the radicalization of workers, it was central to the revolutionary process.

Utilizing local archives and contemporary local newspapers to examine how the unemployed and other rootless elements of Odessa society organized themselves to press claims against both the bourgeoisie and the working class, the author of this instructive piece notes how the Bolsheviks used the unemployed to build Soviet power in the city but then suffered ideological and practical problems with what they came to denigrate as the `Lumpenproletariat'. 4002 Pushkareva, I.

An exploration of the performance of mass democratic institutions in the railway system during 1917 and their relationship with the Provisional Government's commitment to democracy in a more rigid political sense. The author argues that, contrary to the accepted opinion that a government more sensitive to mass participation might have stood more chance than did Kerensky's, `the very ``success'' of workers' control on the railroads weakened resistance in this crucial sector to the Bolsheviks' coming to power'.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1983. x + 347 pp. In this ground-breaking and influential study of the social history of the revolution the author argues that, far from being an anarchic phenomenon, the movement for workers' control in the factories of the capital was inspired by the workers' desire to maintain production in the face of perceived sabotage on the part of factory owners. Smith also finds that skilled and unskilled workers played different but essentially complementary roles in the revolutionary process. See also Smith, S. A. `Petrograd in 1917: The View from Below', in D. H. Kaiser (ed.) The Workers' Revolution in Russia, 1917: The View from Below. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1987, pp. 59±79; and Smith, S.

A most extraordinary document, purporting to be the minutes of a meeting of Petrograd workers held at the city's Neva Gate on 18 March 1918. In it individual delegates and joint resolutions protest at declining urban living standards and at the dictatorial behaviour of the Bolsheviks (in particular their denudation of the power of the workers' own organizations ± factory committees, trade unions and soviets), and demand the immediate convocation of a Constituent Assembly.

Revolution in the Factory: The Birth of the Soviet Textile Industry, 1917±1920. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1990. viii + 227 pp. This pioneering study (based partly on Soviet archival materials) of the textile workers of the Central Industrial Region focuses upon administrative reorganization and control of the factories rather than production itself, and analyses the links between war and economic collapse. The author concludes that although the textile workers demonstrated some enthusiasm for the revolution, their loyalties were more local than national and that Party membership among them was considerably less common than Soviet authors commonly claimed.

An investigation of changing social relations during the civil war, focusing upon the problem of the social composition of the Bolshevik urban strongholds of 1917, with particular reference to Moscow.

Focusing upon its themes of religion and patriotism (and its authors' `prophetic vision' as `the avant-garde of post-communism') van den Bercken offers a consideration of the work Iz glubiny of 1918, published by Struve, Berdaiev, Bulgakov, Frank and others.

Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1994. pp. 138±158. Utilizing a wide range of contemporary publications and some materials from the Russian archives, the author of this chapter recreates the extreme and untypical experience of the Donbass miners from 1917 to 1921, examining the `alternation of rebellion and conformism' in labour protests, the miners' direct action against management and the relation of this to party politics, and the miners' `direct daily experience' of civil war in a region which repeatedly changed hands during the conflict.

In part in response to the exchanges of Brinton and Goodey [3992], in this provocative and highly original article the author surveys the literature on the subject, notes the complexity of the Russian labour movement in 1917 and 1918, and stresses the importance of `occupational sectarianism' in working class politics.

Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 243±266. The author finds that Russian academics' widespread hostility to Bolshevik rule during the civil-war years was a consequence not so much of political or social factors as the divergence between Bolshevik ideology and the `world view' of the academics, which he characterizes as `the mystique of nauka'.

4032 Daniels, R. V. `Intellectuals and the Russian Revolution', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 20 (1961), No. 2. pp. 270±278 The author explains the distinctions between what he terms the `literary intelligentsia', the `quasi-intelligentsia' and the `technical intelligentsia' and argues that the revolutionary movement was a creature of the first group, that power was seized in October by representatives of the second and that the third, eventually, was the main beneficiary of the new order.

4033 Elkin, B. `The Russian Intelligentsia on the Eve of the Revolution', in R. Pipes (ed.) The Russian Intelligentsia. New York: Columbia University Press, 1961. pp. 32±46. Some generalized remarks, designed to counter any undue identification of the intelligentsia with the revolutionary cause, concluding that `as long as the organization of the state remained intact, the majority of the Russian intelligentsia was able and prepared to manage it, thus saving its mechanism from disintegration'. Elkin alleges that it was only after the fall of the monarchy that `a new majority gained ground and began working from different premises'.

London: Verso, 1988. x + 374 pp. An impassioned and insightful chronologically organized account of the adversarial relationship of anti-Soviet intellectuals and the `statocracy' by a `scholar politician' of Marxist inclinations. The author argues that, in the aftermath of the revolution, avoidable mistakes on the part of the Bolshevik leadership (especially the infringements on democratic freedoms over the winter of 1917 to 1918) not ideological fixations were the cause of the party's breach with the intelligentsia.

London: Macmillan, 1990. xii + 266 pp. The focus of this provocative and passionately argued work is the cultural intelligentsia ± those involved in literature, the arts and education ± rather than the intelligentsia as a whole. Drawing upon his research in American and Soviet archives, the author describes their experience of war, revolution and civil war, their relations with the Soviet government and Bolshevik cultural policies and cultural institutions, and elaborates his thesis that the period of the NEP witnessed not a relaxation of Bolshevik cultural controls but a consolidation of those controls which had gradually reined in the relative cultural pluralism of the civil-war period.

Pittsburgh: University of Pittsburgh Press, 1989. xvi + 24 pp. An informative critique and biographical study which pays due attention to its subject's development and activity between 1917 and his death in 1926 and the attempts to re-establish the Makhaevtsy as a political force under the Bolshevik reÂgime, as well as the somewhat ironic fate of the movement's rediscovery for denunciatory purposes in 1938. The work is based upon the holdings of the Max Nomad Archive at the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam and a range of other materials. Nomad himself had earlier produced a brief study: Nomad, M. `The Saga of Waclaw Machajski', in M. Nomad Aspects of Revolt. New York: Bookman Associates, 1959. pp. 96±117. See also Shatz, M.

Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell International, 1979, pp. 54±105 Utilizing statements by intellectuals themselves as his primary source materials, the author presents an analysis of the intelligentsia's response to the revolution in the eighteen months following February 1917, highlighting its disillusionment with the masses and the causes and consequences of its disunity.

4048 Tompkins, S. R. The Russian Intelligentsia: Makers of the Revolutionary State. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1957. xiii + 282 pp. A rather schematic study of the period 1855 to 1917 which argues that prior to 1914 Russia was set to emulate the West in her economic development but that many of the Russian intelligentsia had `put on blinders' and `tended to refuse to see any solution of economic problems other than their own'. Moreover, states the author, the intelligentsia nurtured a `predilection for explanations that would satisfy its emotional needs' and acquired the `unfortunate attitude' that `political struggles necessarily involve personal animosity'.

The organization attracted many prominent cultural figures, as well as political figures associated with the Union for the Regeneration of Russia. 4045 Schapiro, L. `The Vekhi Group and the Mystique of Revolution', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 34 (1955±1956), No. 1, pp. 56±76.

A pioneering examination of one of the least studied social groups in the history of the 1917 ± industrialists, merchants and entrepreneurs ± explaining how their collective attitudes and behaviour changed from an initial enthusiasm for the revolution in March to a position of intransigence to and intimidation of the Provisional Government by the summer (a process which the author regards as selfdefeating).

Cambridge/Paris: Cambridge University Press/Editions de la Maison des Sciences de l'Homme. 1989. pp. 356±379. A fascinating scholarly study of managerial strategies, arguing that `a shift occurred from the state to the private sector as the focal point of the managerial reform movement in Russia' prior to 1914 and that the `change in relative power between labour and capital' resulting from this is a crucial key to understanding the radicalization of organized labour in that period.

Analysing the combined holdings of the Hoover Institution Library and the New York Public Library, jointly amounting to some three-quarters of the issues of Utro Rossii published in the period in question, the author evaluates the profile of the paper ± one of Moscow's most widely distributed newspapers of the time ± as a medium `which can shed more light on the gradually changing positions within the commercial-industrial and liberal camp' in the first months after the Bolshevik take-over.

and offering a clear and impartial account of developments from the 1860s to the 1920s. The author welcomed the Land Code of 1922 as a partial reiteration of Stolypin's policies after `the complete failure of the Socialist experiments' of 1918 and 1919.

The focus of the work is not the commune as an institution, but the attitude to it of the tsarist and early Soviet reÂgimes.

Maynard's conception of the topics he deal with is predicated on the assumption that Stolypin's `experiment in separate property' drove the peasant commune underground from whence `in 1917 it once again emerged with every sign of renewed vitality'.

MeÂquet is inclined to give the Stolypin reforms the benefit of the doubt as a viable programme only forestalled by the onset of war and argues for a marked discontinuity between the Bolshevik agrarian policies of the immediate post-October period and those of the 1920s.

McKean's contribution to the same volume [1002], the author compares the failure of the late-imperial Russian reÂgime to establish social foundations among the peasantry with the development of a national political culture incorporating the peasantry in France. Consideration is also given to relations between the Provisional Government and the peasantry. See also Moon, D. The Russian Peasantry, 1600±1930: The World the Peasants Made.

He concludes that major structural constraints on the successful operation of the market both facilitated the revolution and necessitated the introduction of NEP. 4074 Shanin, T. The Awkward Class: Political Sociology of Peasantry in a Developing Society: Russia, 1910±1925. Oxford: Clarendon, 1972. xvii + 253 pp. Essentially this influential work provides an introduction to and critique of a variety of neglected theoretical and empirical studies relating to the socioeconomic mobility and differentiation of the peasantry (including the works of A. Connive and A. Khriashcheva). The work was later expanded into a more general two-volume study of Russian state and society from the 1880s to 1914: Shanin, T. Russia as a `Developing Society' (The Roots of Otherness: Russia's Turn of the Century, Volume 1). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1986. xvi + 379 pp; and Shanin, T. Russia, 1905±1907: Revolution as a Moment of Truth (Russia's Turn of the Century, Volume 2). New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1986. xvi + 379 pp. Both versions are rather confusingly organized.

King, 1937. xix + 267 pp. Drawing on a solid range of sources, both published and unpublished (most importantly a collection of daily reports sent in from the localities to the Provisional Government in 1917), this volume, although somewhat schematic in its analysis and probably not suited as a first point of reference on the subject, offers a wealth of information and some interesting insights into developments in the provinces in 1917. 4071 ReÂmeÂzov, H.

An excellent and detailed analysis of the zemstvo's experience of the rule of the Provisional Government, of Bolshevik rule in central Russia and of White rule on the periphery, arguing that the institution's fate `had largely been determined even before the February revolt', as a consequence of the peasants' rejection of an institution which they saw (even in the persons of its teachers and doctors) as a threat to their own traditions.

This analysis of the impact of industrialization upon the peasantry argues that the movement of Moscow province's peasants into industrial employment `did not entail their total uprooting from their village or their land': the final result, by 1914, was the creation of `a group of landholding peasants with strong urban ties, rather than a rural proletariat forced off their land and permanently into towns'.

Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1982. viii + 599 pp. A combative but ultimately unconvincing investigation of the origins and consequences of the Stolypin reforms, seeking to explain them as a process of interaction between officials and peasants, the former animated by `their own inner need to force the rural population into conformity with ``modern'' assumptions regarding human nature'.

Bloomington, IN: Indiana University Press, 1979. x + 309 pp. An influential collection of essays, the common concern of which is the impact of the Russian nobility upon national politics in the last years of the empire, and the gulfs which existed between the political culture of the nobility and the peasantry, and between the countryside and the city.

A thinly referenced general survey and discussion predicated on the assumption that `the Russian agrarian question has been marked by the struggle between the principles of free enterprise and money economy on the one hand and serfdom and natural economy on the other'. The Stolypin reforms, argues Zaitsev, had `promised real independence' and this had partially been fulfilled, but `as the peasant was on the threshold of the new era, the Revolution dragged him back'.

The author's concern in this excellently referenced study, which begins with a concise and instructive historiographical survey, is `less with statistically measurable results than with the process of implementation and the nature of the relationship that developed between the peasantry and the government's local officials'. Macey concludes that, despite problems, had the First World War not intervened, `the peasantry might well have been won over to the Stolypin reforms'.

An insightful analysis, based upon Soviet archival materials, of the activation and democratization of the village commune in the fields of land redistribution and village politics, and of its relation to other bodies (the agencies of the Provisional Government, the soviets and the kombedy). There is a strong focus upon events in the Samara, Saratov and other Volga provinces.

4094 Keep, J. `The Agrarian Revolution of 1917± 1918 in Soviet Historiography', Russian Review Vol. 36 (1977), No. 4, pp. 405±424. A careful survey of Soviet publications from the 1920s to the 1970s, highlighting the problems posed for Soviet authors by the agrarian revolution.

Studies 4095 Brutskus, K. D. `Die russische Agrarrevolution', Zeitschrift fuÈr die gesammte Staatswissenschaft Vol. 78 (1924), pp. 301±345. A pioneering study of the land seizures of 1917 to 1918 (`a mass movement of elemental fury') by an eminent Russian liberal economist.

4100 Figes, O. `The Russian Revolution of 1917 and Its Language in the Village', Russian Review Vol. 56 (1997), No. 3, pp. 323±345. An extremely innovative and extensively referenced discussion of the Provisional Government's attempts to find a `common discourse with the peasantry'. Ultimately, Figes finds, `the democratic revolution in the towns spoke a foreign language to the peasantry', which transformed government precepts and policies (almost beyond recognition) into specific peasant forms.

4096 Channon, J. `The Peasantry in the Revolutions of 1917', in E. R. Frankel et al. (eds) Revolution in Russia: Reassessments of 1917. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 105±130. Utilizing Western and Soviet published sources, the author examines the current state of the debate regarding the revolution in the countryside during 1917. The piece is comprised of four sections: `The Peasant Movement (February to October 1917)', `Peasant Organization and Rural Revolution, 1917± 1918', `The Peasants, Land Revolution and Land Reform', and `Peasant Behaviour and the Rural Revolution'. Channon concludes that whatever forms instances of peasant unrest took, `they possessed a rationale, however parochial'.

J. `The Mainsprings of Peasant Action in 1917', Soviet Studies Vol. 30 (1978), No. 1, pp. 63±86. This very useful survey of the timing, geographical spread and type of peasant disturbances in European Russia in 1917 seeks to prove that all were determined not by political consciousness but by the traditional concerns and calendar of village life, as the peasantry rejected all forms of external authority. For a stern, if not altogether convincing, critique of this thesis and its conceptual basis, see Kres, J. H. `The Political Consciousness of the Russian Peasantry: A Comment on Graeme Gill's ``The Mainsprings of Peasant Action in 1917'' ', Soviet Studies Vol. 31 (1979), No. 4, pp. 574±580.

Beginning with a chronicle of peasant affairs and peasant risings from the outbreak of war in 1914 to early 1918 (but with heavy concentration on the events of 1917), the author then moves on, in a series of thematically organized chapters, to discuss peasant organizations, the issue of peasants who had separated from the commune, the peasant and land policies of the Provisional Government, and the attitude of the main political parties toward the peasantry. 4098 Ferro, M. `1917: La reÂvolution au village', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 15 (1973), No. 1±2, pp. 33±55.

A pioneering case study of peasant control over land redistribution, based upon newly available materials from the archives of Smolensk oblast'. The author finds that Soviet control over the process was non-existent and that, contrary to received opinion, land was distributed `on the basis of locally determined norms that often neither levelled village society nor eliminated the existence of peasant and non-peasant farms outside of the commune'.

R. `Levels of Technology and the Use of Hired Labour in the Peasant and Manorial Economy of European Russia in 1917', Russian Review Vol. 47 (1988), No. 4, pp. 409±423. In this interesting piece a Russian historian presents a synthesis of her own and her colleagues' correlational analysis of the manorial (pomeshchich'ii) and peasant economies on the eve of the October Revolution, based upon the published data of the agricultural census of 1917. She finds that capitalist relations prevailed everywhere and that `the peasant economy surpassed the productive potential and technical level of the manorial economy and was the defining force of the nation's agriculture'.

4113 . 22 Peasants, Agriculture and Rural Society work originally published in Leningrad in 1924. The author, an independently minded Bolshevik and historian, examines conditions in a region with which he was personally acquainted ± Goritsaia volost' in Tver guberniia ± and records its return to a barter economy in the years after the First World War, the weakness of Soviet power in the countryside, the meaningless orders given by the Soviet authorities, and the dodges and illegal activities engaged in by the peasants to circumvent such orders.

the scope and chronology of land redistribution, its relation to the October Revolution, the extent to which it solved the `land question' in Russia, and questions of regional diversification. The author argues that although `the Bolsheviks honestly tried (as far as their understanding went) to represent peasant interests', they failed to understand peasant desires and values and could not comprehend that these were `different than those of the proletariat'. 4117 Lawton, L. `The Peasants under Lenin', Nineteenth Century No. 88 (1920), pp. 445±449. Picking up on a recently published interview with Lenin in the Manchester Guardian, the author of this rather churlish and verbose piece of commentary emphasizes the Bolsheviks' crucial dependence on the support (or, at least, neutrality) of the peasantry.

Paris: Spartacus, 1968. 80 pp. A polemical discussion, arguing that the reÂgime established after the October Revolution represented neither a workers' nor a peasants' revolution, both having been denied democratic participation in society. This work clearly tells us more about Mett's particular brand of libertarian anti-Bolshevism than it does about Bolshevism or the Russian peasants.

London: Frank Cass, 1977. 120 pp. This volume includes three remarkable, contemporary pieces on the post-revolutionary peasantry: Gorky's pessimistic `On the Russian Peasantry' of 1922 (pp. 11±27); extracts from a book on a volost' near Moscow in the years 1917 to 1924 (see Bol'shakov [4112]); and a futuristic piece by Chayanov (set, remarkably, in 1984) in which the peasantry have overthrown the rule of the towns.

The Bolsheviks and the Peasant Question . 4130 In this piece the author argues that, contrary to the impression given in Trotsky's autobiography and in many secondary accounts, the proposals Trotsky put to the Central Committee in February 1920 concerning `Fundamental Questions of Food and Agrarian Policy' did not foreshadow those of the future NEP. Rather they had `the character of ad hoc measures to alleviate the temporary crisis'. A full translation of the document in question is appended.

his opportunistic (and anti-Marxist) encouragement of such acts was `tough-minded and optimistic' and a `healthy and rational' position for a revolutionary activist to adopt. 4126 Kingston-Mann, E. `A Strategy for Marxist Bourgeois Revolution: Lenin and the Peasantry, 1907±1916', Journal of Peasant Studies Vol. 7 (1980), No. 2, pp. 131±157. An analysis of the manner in which Lenin's predominantly accurate anticipation of peasant unrest and its implications was formed by the fact that he had, up until 1916, envisaged it to function as a crucial force in a democratic (but not socialist) revolution.

4122 Channon, J. `The Bolsheviks and the Peasantry: The Land Question during the First Eight Months of Soviet Rule', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 66 (1988), No. 4, pp. 593±624. A fine survey of the relationship between the Bolshevik reÂgime and the peasantry of the Central Agricultural Region from October 1917 to May/June 1918, detailing what had largely been only assumed in Western literature: `namely that the peasants were prepared to accept the Bolsheviks because of the land decree but turned against them from the spring to the early summer of 1918 with the move towards widespread coercion and forcible requisitioning'. The piece is useful also for its assessment of the strengthening of the mir as a consequence of the postOctober process of land redistribution.

4127 Kingston-Mann, E. `Marxism and Russian Rural Development', American Historical Review Vol. 86 (1981) No. 4, pp. 731±752. A useful survey of the thoughts on the peasant question of not only Lenin and Plekhanov, but also a number of other Marxist writers ± among them V. I. Orlov, A. F. Fortunatov and V. P. Vorontsov, N. I. Ziber and A. I. Skvortsov, and A. I. Chuprov and A. S. Posnikov.

Paris: EÂditions du Seuil, 1978. 379 pp. A well-referenced and very detailed discussion in three parts, dealing with the development of capitalism in Russia, Lenin's economic analysis of the peasantry, and the transformation of his policies concerning the peasantry before and after the revolutions of 1917.

Some brief unfocused remarks on the subject, arguing that although Lenin correctly foresaw the importance of the peasantry in the revolutionary process, he was wrong to conclude that in the aftermath of the revolution it would be easy to transform rural production through an industrial revolution in the countryside.

4124 Kingston-Mann, E. `Lenin and the Beginning of Marxist Peasant Revolution: The Burden of Political Responsibility, July±October 1917', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 50 (1972), No. 121, pp. 570±588. A analysis of Lenin's thought regarding the interrelationship of peasant unrest and the question of the seizure of power during the summer and autumn of 1917. The author argues that, acting in `the best Marxist tradition', Lenin helped to `expose the concrete and specific failures of men unwilling (in the case of Tsereteli) or unable (in the case of Chernov) to act as responsible and revolutionary political leaders'.

London: Macmillan, 1992. pp. 169±188. The author contends that long before his public renunciation of the official Bolshevik policy of `land nationalization' in late August 1917, Lenin had come to accept what others in the Party (including Stalin) were saying ± namely, that the peasants should be allowed to take over gentry land unimpeded and distribute it among themselves.

This study charts the evolution of Lenin's attitude to the peasant question, characterizing it as `a series of tactical responses to a changing political situation', but nevertheless concluding that although the Bolsheviks had no programme in which relief of the peasant and gratification of his needs were an end in themselves, their programme was `that of Marx and Engels' and was by no means opportunistic. A good, if at times slightly simplistic, introduction to the subject.

Utilizing private correspondence, personal diaries and the records of the ARC, this article details the activities of one public health nurse during her eightmonth service at Vladivostok (from mid-1919 to February 1920). It illustrates details of everyday life in Vladivostok during the civil war, examines American attitudes to Russian medical practices and discusses the general activities of the ARC in the region.

This unusual article charts the operations of the YMCA in Russia from the pre-war years to the end of the civil war, concentrating on the organization's efforts to raise morale in the Russian Army during 1917, and its troubled relationships with the Bolshevik government in 1918 and the Kolchak government in 1918 to 1919.

New York: Macmillan, 1919. xii + 303 pp. Notable for the fact that the author, Chairman of the War Council of the American Red Cross during the First World War, includes not one word about the activities of William Boyce Thompson or Raymond Robins in the chapter dealing with Russia.

4211 Edmondson, C. M. `The Politics of Hunger: The Soviet Response to Famine, 1921', Soviet Studies Vol. 29 (1977), No. 4, pp. 506±518. The author argues that although the Soviet government preferred to ignore the portents of famine in 1920 to 1921, for to acknowledge it and to seek aid from abroad might facilitate renewed foreign intervention under the guise of famine relief (`food intervention'), it nevertheless blundered into accepting foreign aid through its creation of the AllRussian Famine Relief Committee.

The author finds that contemporary American charges that Soviet leaders terminated famine relief in 1922 in order to justify the renewed grain exports which were required for general economic development cannot be substantiated, although he admits that they were apparently willing to risk another massive human tragedy.

4227 Swan, J. The Lost Children: A Russian Odyssey. Carlisle, PA: South Mountain Press, 1989. xiv + 224 pp. Although factually unreliable on the wider issues of the civil war, this account of the fate of the children from Petrograd who were trapped in Siberia during the civil war (and who were subsequently shipped back to Soviet Russia via the USA) is a well-told popular tale in its own terms. The volume concentrates more on the earlier (Siberian) chapters of the children's odyssey than the only other study of them [4221]. The author was the second wife of Alfred Swan, the AngloRussian Tolstoyan and Red Cross volunteer who played a key part in the children's rescue. See also Swan, J.

The author of this piece argues that `the main factor causing famine conditions in the steppe Ukraine in 1921±1922 was not weather, or any other natural factor, nor even civil war: it was the Soviet government's policies in 1919±1921, specifically its land and food requisition policies'.

Boulder, CO: Westview Press, 1996. pp. 77± 99. An interesting account of how many prominent representatives of the American Relief Administration (notably James P. Goodrich), much to the surprise of Washington, came to advocate a thaw in US±Soviet relations and even the recognition of the Soviet government.

4229 Thackeray, F. W. `To Serve the Cause of Poland: The Polish Grey Samaritans, 1919±1922', Polish Review Vol. 35 (1990), No. 1, pp. 37±50. An account of the relief work in Poland of young Polish-American female volunteers, which is based largely upon the archives of the organization. 433

This piece contains little information on the Bureau's operations in Russia, but the author's list and descriptions of the films it made are intriguing ± for example, The Fall of Kiev and To the Aid of Poland about the Polish±Soviet War.

4233 Wheatcroft, S. `Famine and Epidemic Crises in Russia, 1918±1922: The Case of Saratov', Annales du deÂmographie historique (1983), pp. 329±351. One of the best modern studies of the subject, focusing upon the town which became the centre of the famine of 1921 to 1922. Emphasizing the extreme complexity of a demographic crisis which, at its height, witnessed the loss of over 40 per cent of the annual birth cohort, the author traces the contribution of starvation and major and minor infectious diseases (finding that a dramatic increase in the instance of common ailments was most devastating to human life) and assesses the impact of refugee movements. See also Wheatcroft, S. G. Famine and Factors Effecting Mortality in the USSR: Demographic Crises of 1914±1922 and 1930±1933.

An argument that the experience of the American Relief Administration and other agencies reveals that the Soviet government had no will to prevent starvation in Ukraine. On the contrary, `it was determined to use famine as a weapon to force the Ukrainian population hostile to the Soviet regime into total submission'. 4232 Weissman, B. M. Herbert Hoover and Famine Relief to Soviet Russia, 1921±1923. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1974. xv + 247 pp. A careful account of the relationship between the American Relief Administration and the Soviet government, demonstrating that Hoover's desire to help the famine's victims overcame his repugnance for the Soviet reÂgime, while establishing that both the ARA and the Soviet leadership misread each other's intentions throughout the period. The work might justifiably be regarded as the definitive account of the ARA. See also Weissman, B. M. `Herbert Hoover's ``Treaty'' with Soviet Russia: August 20, 1921', Slavic Review Vol. 28 (1969), No. 2, pp. 276±288; and Weissman, B.

4234 Williams, C. `The 1921 Russian Famine: Centre and Periphery Responses', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 6 (1993), No. 1, pp. 277±314. A useful survey which explores a number of key issues: the background to the famine; the nature and scope of the health crisis it caused; its consequences for demographic trends and health status; the response of the Soviet medical profession and national and local government (with special reference to Petrograd and Saratov); and the degree of foreign relief assistance and its impact on the situation. 4235 Zatko, J. J. `The Vatican and Famine Relief in Russia', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 42 (1963), No. 98, pp. 54±63.

Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1969. 468 pp. This valuable work explains how Soviet historians were expected to serve Soviet nationalities policies by accommodating `historical interpretations to the exigencies of nationality policy'. The volume features particularly heavy coverage of how this was applied to Russian±Ukrainian relations and includes excellent section on the `Shamil controversy'. Unfortunately the author relied only on works in Russian, thereby neglecting Soviet historical writings prepared by non-Russians in their native languages.

A readable introductory survey of the relevant literature, arguing that `of all the historical phenomena discussed by Marx, his treatment of nationalism, nationalist movements and the emergence of the nation-state is the least satisfactory', bestowing an `ambiguous heritage' on the socialist movement, which was thereby burdened with an anti-national bias which `did not make it especially capable of meeting the challenges of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries'.

In this interesting and original article the author addresses the dialectical nature of Lenin's views on the nationalities question, discusses the ideas of other leading Bolsheviks (notably the Latvian Bolshevik Pe)teris StucÏka) and compares them to those of Lenin, and evaluates the importance of the problem in reference to the Bolsheviks' whole scale of values and priorities.

4245 Cioøkosz, A. `The Eclipse of Lenin's Ideas on the Nationality Problem', Polish Review Vol. 21 (1976), No. 4, pp. 59±68. An examination of Lenin's ideas on the nationality question of 1921 to 1923, and in particular his struggle against `Great Russian chauvinism' in Soviet Russia's dealings with Transcaucasia.

4250 Fedenko, P. `Lenin and the Nationality Question', Studies on the Soviet Union Vol. 3 (1963±1964), No. 3, pp. 59±79. The author argues that although he preached nationalism as a tactical revolutionary measure, Lenin was actually a staunch enemy of the concept of separate socialist nations. See also Fedenko, P. `Lenin and His ``Wise'' Nationality Policy', Problems of the Peoples of the USSR Vol. 23 (1964), pp. 33±37; Fedenko, P. `Liberation Abroad and Colonialism at Home', Studies on the Soviet Union Vol. 1 (1961), No. 2, pp. 5±22.

An analysis of the key role of Lenin in the formulation of Bolshevik and Soviet nationality policies, tracing the evolution of his thoughts from his early writings on the Russian Empire through his conception of the self-determination of peoples to the practice of Soviet federalism (with particular reference to the Ukraine) in the period from 1917 to the adoption of the Treaty on the Formation of the USSR in December 1922.

A scholarly account of Soviet nationalities policies in the years 1917 to 1922, arguing that Lenin was fundamentally opposed to federalism and that any concessions to it were no more than a means to subvert it en route to a truly centralized Soviet state.

4247 Connor, W. The National Question in MarxistLeninist Theory and Strategy. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1984. xvii + 614 pp. This wide-ranging and perhaps slightly overambitious study focuses only fleetingly on the early Soviet period and the attempt to establish a `Soviet prototype' of the Marxist-Leninist conception of national self-determination, although its discussion of the ideas on nationalism of Marx and Engels and of their reception by Lenin does offer a good introduction to the subject.

The author contends that Lenin's emphasis upon the equality of languages in his nationality policy was derived directly from his own father and from a Chuvash friend of the family, the educator I. Ia. Iakovlev, and indirectly from a colleague and friend of his father, the Orthodox lay missionary, N. I. Il'mimskii.

The Soviet State and the National Minorities, 1917±1921 . 4263 4254 Low, A. D. Lenin on the National Question. New York: Bookman Associates, 1958. 193 pp. This study focuses on the years 1913 to 1917 and pays particular attention to Lenin's writings on the subject of the relations of the Great Russians to the other nationalities of Russia/Soviet Russia. Low emphasizes the consistency of Lenin's writings on the subject, and argues that never did Lenin have true respect for the rights of the minority peoples of the empire, looking upon them, as an enemy of nationalism, as pawns to be used to facilitate the proletarian revolution.

A well-referenced discussion, concluding that Lloyd George's hopes that the Balfour Declaration would `bring Russian jewry to the cause of the Entente' were not realized in any meaningful sense, but that the declaration certainly `made the Jews an object of suspicion in the eyes of the Bolshevik leaders'. This, notes Marom, led to `the gradual intensification of attacks on Zionism in Russia during the next decade'.

Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1994. ix + 295 pp. This misleadingly titled work provides a detailed administrative history of Narkomnats. The author finds that, as a consequence of weak leadership by Stalin, the commissariat became a mere transmission belt of a Bolshevik Party determined `to retain the imperial legacy' and to reconstruct a `frankly colonial relationship' with the outlying regions of the former empire.

An interesting introduction to the controversy of the years 1912 to 1914 between on the one hand Stalin and Stepan Shahoumian (Shaumian), whom Lenin had asked for expositions on the nationality question, and on the other hand David Ananoun (David Ter Danielian), a leader of the Armenian equivalent of the Jewish Bund and a proponent of extra-territorial national cultural autonomy.

New York: Holmes & Meier, 1991. xviii + 262 pp. Not the definitive work its blurb suggests, but nevertheless an insightful and thoroughly documented account of the development of Soviet nationalities policy.

In this still useful article the author analyses the Soviet government's interpretation of the principle of the self-determination of nations (as applied, in particular, to the Baltic, Belorussia, the Ukraine and Transcaucasia), as well as adumbrating the Soviet attitude to the colonial and exploited peoples of the world.

monograph, as Pipes put it in his preface, `is on the national movements in the borderlands, on the relations between them and the Communist movement. It has as its main objective an analysis of the role which the entire national question played in the Russian Revolution'. However, the tone of the work is unremittingly hostile to the Bolsheviks. See also Pipes, R.

A brief introduction is followed by a partial translation (and the full Russian text) of the Politburo minutes of 11 September 1919 ± the meeting at which it was decided to propose peace to Finland, Latvia and Lithuania. 4272 Smith, J. `The Education of National Minorities: The Early Soviet Experience', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 75 (1997), No. 2, pp. 281± 307. An examination of Bolshevik efforts between 1917 and 1927 to develop national education through the creation of educational establishments providing instruction in languages other than Russian. Given the obstacles involved (the tsarist legacy, high levels of illiteracy among the minorities, shortages of material and personnel, and the Russian chauvinism of some party members), the author argues, the Bolsheviks' success was remarkable.

The author claims that a careful reading of Stalin's published writings demonstrates that, far from attempting to deceive, he was `fairly candid in revealing that federalism had little meaning to him beyond its value as an expedient symbol'. 4268 Page, S. W. `Lenin, the National Question and the Baltic States, 1917±1919', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 7 (1948), No. 1, pp. 15±32.

4274 Smith, J. The Bolsheviks and the National Question. London: Macmillan, 1999. xviii + 281 pp. Utilizing a range of materials from the Russian archives, the author of this monograph challenges the influential conclusions of Richard Pipes [4269] that nothing positive can be found in Bolshevik nationalities policy and that any concessions made to the nationalities were purely tactical. Rather, asserts Smith persuasively, in the period 1917 to 1923, the Bolsheviks `sought to promote, rather than deny, national distinctiveness'. The focus of the work is upon policies which were implemented once Soviet power was in place, rather than on the sovietization of the borderlands, and particular attention is placed upon practice within the RSFSR and the republics of Transcaucasia.

A lively and original examination of the background to the 1922 Union Treaty which examines Bolshevik theory regarding nationalism and selfdetermination, state formation, treaties and constitutions of the years 1918 to 1922, and debates within the Bolshevik leadership of 1921 to 1922 (notably the contest between Stalin and Frunze) over autonomization and relations with the Transcaucasian republics.

4276 Wolfe, B. D. `The Influence of Early Military Decisions upon the National Structure of the Soviet Union', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 9 (1950), No. 3, pp. 169±179. On the basis of a series of extracts from correspondence between Lenin and other Bolshevik leaders, the author argues that military considerations in the years 1918 and 1919 had a profound affect `on the transformation of the Soviet Union from a federation of theoretically autonomous republics . . . into a highly centralized state'.

Holt, 1927. 826 pp. This pioneering study deals exclusively with the changing governmental circumstances of countries which were part of the Russian Empire and subsequently became (either wholly or in part) part of the USSR. Although much of the factual information is now dated, the work's numerous charts and 240 pages of documents remain useful.

Snyder (eds) Post-Soviet Political Order: Conflict and State Building. London: Routledge, 1998. pp. 34±57. A well-referenced general discussion which focuses in particular upon the case of Ukraine. The author contends that `the diminished importance of traditional anchors of identity such as estate and dynasty' resulting from the disintegrative effects of the war `heightened emphasis on national and ethnic ones, on the one hand, and class ones, on the other'.

I. `Constitutional Aspects of the Imperial Russian Government's Policy towards the National Minorities', Journal of Modern History Vol. 13 (1941), No. 4, pp. 467±492. A very useful survey of the growth of the Russian Empire and of the diverse constitutional ties binding the minority peoples to it (with particular reference to Finland, Poland and the Baltic provinces). The author's intention is to establish that `tsarist policy toward the national minorities was far less harsh than it is generally believed to have been', toward which end he somewhat dubiously contrasts the `complete solidarity' of the Russian Empire during the war with the disaffection of the non-German peoples ruled by the Hohenzollerns and Habsburgs.

4286 Jones, S. `The Non-Russian Nationalities', in R. Service (ed.) Society and Politics in the Russian Revolution. London: Macmillan, 1992. pp. 35±63.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. pp. 219± 246. An important and provocative comparative analysis of the relative strengths of national and class loyalties in Ukraine and Belorussia, and among the various peoples of the Baltic and Transcaucasia, concluding that among the minority peoples of the Empire `nationalism was far weaker than most nationalists have allowed'.

(ed.) East Central Europe during the First World War: From Foreign Domination to National Independence, 2 vols. New York: Columbia University Press, 1983. xviii + 1,228 pp. The first volume of this useful work contains material on the revolutions of 1917 and the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. The second analyses the final stages of the war, with Chapter 26 (`The Baltic Countries, Lithuania and Ukraine after Brest') of most interest to the historian of the revolution.

Surveying the years 1917 to 1920, and ranging back into the earlier history of the region, the Latvian author of this article argues that the Baltic States were never `barrier states' which were `carved' out of Russia with the aim of isolating Bolshevism. Rather, `they developed by a natural process . . . fostered by the instinct of self-preservation and protection'.

London: Russia Today Society, 1944. 52 pp. A propagandistic pamphlet which argues that `there is no reason to fear that the continuance of the Baltic States as autonomous Soviet Republics within the USSR runs counter to the desire of the Baltic peoples' because `union with Socialist Russia was the aim desired by the great majority of all three Baltic populations in the decisive years of 1917±20, but frustrated by the intervention of foreign arms'.

He was consequently forced to rely upon the most dubious German militarist, Soviet and Nazi sources ± resulting in a marked slant in his coverage towards the German and Bolshevik intervention in the region and away from the indigenous national movements ± and was seemingly unaware of a great number of earlier scholarly works on the subject ± even those in English.

4357 [Anon.] Die Revolutionstage in Helsingfors, Februar bis Dezember 1917. Von einem Russischen MilitaÈr. Berlin: Kulturliga, n.d. [1919]. 31 pp. Its lurid and melodramatic passages notwithstanding, this is an unusual and interesting account. In the author's opinion, the Russian fleet's problems stemmed from the fact that `criminals' had been able to inspire the naval rank and file into insurrectionary activity, due to an insufficient deployment of discipline and too generous awards of pay during the war years.

Studies 4363 Alapuro, R. State and Revolution in Finland. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1988. xiv + 315. In this study of state building, more a work of political science than of history, the author focuses upon the manner in which external factors influence the development of the internal polity of a successor state. In the case of Finland in 1917, he notes in particular how the elimination of state security forces (as a consequence of the revolution in Russia) compelled a reluctant Social Democratic Party to fill the vacuum, leading it into a disastrous clash with a resurgent nationalist movement which was to shape Finnish politics for generations.

Helsinki: Finnish Historical Society, 1965. 299 pp. An extremely detailed elaboration of Finnish± Soviet and Finnish±White Russian relations and negotiations relating to sovereignty over East Karelia.

An argument that Lenin's preparedness to recognize Finnish independence rested not so much on his recognition of the right to self-determination as on his assumption that the subsequent obsolescence of the national issue would weaken ties between the Finnish proletariat and the bourgeoisie, thereby precipitating social revolution.

Surveying a wide range of Finnish-language sources, the author addresses himself to the question of why it was that the self-consciously Marxist Finnish SDP succeeded in capturing and retaining the loyalty of such a large proportion of voters in a predominantly agrarian society with few traditions of radical popular protest.

4392 Kirby, D. G. `The Finnish Social Democratic Party and the Bolsheviks', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 7 (1972), Nos 1±2, pp. 181±198. Tracing Finnish SDP±Bolshevik relations throughout 1917, the author adumbrates their starkly contrasting attitudes to democracy and suggests that the influence of the Bolsheviks upon the abortive Finnish revolution of 1918 has been exaggerated (both in the White Finnish historiography and the more recent accounts of Rasila [4409], Smith [4415], and Hodgson [4380].

4393 Kirby, D. G. `Stockholm±Petrograd±Berlin: International Social Democracy and Finnish Independence, 1917', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 52 (1974), pp. 63±84. Finnish archival sources and contemporary newspapers are utilized by the author of this interesting piece to illuminate the uncertainties and paradoxes of the Finnish SDP's attitude to independence, as exhibited in its negotiations with the Bolsheviks and other socialist parties in Petrograd and with representatives of the German SPD during the preparations for the Stockholm Conference.

4398 Kostiainen, A. `Santeri Nuorteva and the Origins of Soviet±American Relations', American Studies in Scandinavia Vol. 15 (1983), pp. 1±14. Utilizing archival and documentary sources from Finland, the USA and the Soviet Union, the author of this piece summarizes the career of the noted Finnish Social Democrat (a.k.a. Alexander Nyberg and also Alexander Fedorovich Nuorteva), who was the official representative of the Red Finnish government in the USA, and traces the part played by Nuorteva in 1918 in the steps towards the establishment of a recognized Soviet Russian Information Bureau in the USA. See also Kostiainen, A. `Turbulent Times: The Last Years of Santeri Nuorteva in America', Finnish-Americana Vol. 3 (1980).

From brief but enlightening surveys of Finnish socio-economic conditions in the pre-war years, of the history of the Finnish SPD and of Russo-Finnish relations in 1917, in this insightful article the author proceeds to analyse the instance and origin of five types of disorder in Finland during 1917 (labour conflicts, workers' coercive occupation of government institutions, riots, banditry, and armed conflicts organized by political groups). From the latter he concludes that, far from being caused by events in Russia in 1917, as Finnish historians have tended to claim, the civil war was primarily a consequence of `social shortcomings' within Finland itself.

A study of the origins of the Finnish Red Guard, its social make-up, its morale, and its military operations during 1917 and 1918. Included with the text is an excellent map of the fronts during the Finnish civil war. See also Lappalainen, J.

4395 Kirby, D. G. Finland in the Twentieth Century: A History and Interpretation, 1900±1978. London: C. Hurst & Co. 1979. x + 211 pp. The opening chapters of this survey provide a superb introduction to the major issues of Finnish national and international politics of the revolutionary period, but the coverage of the years 1917 to 1918 themselves is somewhat uneven.

A discussion of why the Finnish civil war remained an `unfinished and ambiguous' issue in Finnish life throughout the twentieth century. The author argues that this was a consequence of `the inherent difficulty of remembering fratricidal violence itself, being[,] as it is, a process that lacks a definite solution or victory for any given group or individual'.

The author also assesses how these women fared under the Whites, finding that sentences imposed on women were distinctly lighter than those for men. 4406 Polvinen, T. `Lenin's Nationality Policy and Finland', Yearbook of Finnish Foreign Policy Vol. 5 (1977), pp. 3±8. A sympathetic summary of Lenin's support for Finnish independence in 1917 is contrasted to the `negative attitude' of the Kadets and to the policies of the SRs and Mensheviks, who were `of little help to the Finns'.

4402 Newsinger, J. `Revolution and Civil War: The Case of Finland', Monthly Review: An Independent Socialist Magazine Vol. 41 (1990), No. 10, pp. 23±32. A brief and naively written account of revolutionary upheaval, civil war and terror in Finland from the February Revolution to mid-1918. Information is drawn almost exclusively from Upton [4421].

Paris: Librairie le FrancËois, 1923. 82 pp. A discussion of the developments leading to the Geneva Conference on the AÊland Islands of 1921 and their historical background.

4403 OÈhquist, J. Das LoÈwenbanner. Des Finnischen Volkes Aufstieg zur Freiheit. Berlin: Deutsche Verlagsgesellschaft fuÈr Politik und Geschichte, 1923. 188 pp. Although hardly unbiased (the work was republished in Nazi Germany in 1943, when Finland was Hitler's ally), this volume contains some important detail relating to German±Finnish relations in 1917 to 1918, with particular reference to military contacts.

4408 RaÈikkoÈnen, E. Svinhufud, the Builder of Finland: An Adventure in Statecraft. London: Alan Wilmer, 1938. vii + 252 pp. This hagiographic undocumented study, by an intemperate White Finnish author, concentrates upon the role of Svinhufud in the events in Finland of November 1917 to May 1918 and includes interviews between Svinhufud and Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin.

Helsinki: Finnish Historical Society, 1965. 198 pp. A major work of revisionism, this is a useful account (based upon Finnish, Swedish, German and American archives) of Finland's relations with the Allies, concentrating upon the shaping of diplomatic relations, the procurement of relief supplies for Finland, the issue of recognition of Finland, and the AÊland Islands and East Karelia disputes. The author also analyzes Finland's relations with the Russian Whites (especially General Iudenich) and Finland's role in the Allied intervention. See also Paasivirta, J.

4409 Rasila, V. `The Finnish Civil War and the Landlease Problems', Scandinavian Economic History Review Vol. 17 (1969), pp. 114±135. Focusing upon the establishment of the front in the Finnish civil war, the author argues that the crofter problem had a minimal impact upon the outbreak of hostilities and that social shortcomings in Finland `would not have been enough to cause a civil war without the impetus provided by the events in Russia and the presence of Russian troops in the country'. 4410 Rintala, M. `The Politics of Gustav Mannerheim', Journal of Central European Affairs Vol. 21 (1961±1962), No. 1, pp. 67±83. This perceptive, sympathetic portrait of Mannerheim as `one of the last great aristocrats in European politics' concentrates upon his aims in the years 1918 to 1919 and upon his sympathy for the Russian Whites.

(transl. by A. I. Fausbùll). London: Harrison & Sons, 1919. viii + 159 pp. Written with the assistance of Mannerheim's coterie, this early Finnish work seeks to demonstrate how `the Red bands had been led astray . . . infected with the Russian plague now called Bolshevism'. It is more a piece of propaganda then a `study', but is not without historical interest ± not least for the documents included in the text.

4412 Rodzianko, P. Mannerheim: An Intimate Portrait of a Great Soldier and Statesman (Recorded by A. Leslie). London: Jarrolds, 1940. 223 pp. A volume which includes extensive coverage of the Finnish civil war, but is devalued by its strongly partisan line with regard to its hero, to whom the author was related by marriage.

4417 Stojko, W. `Finland's Relations with the Russian Provisional Government', East European Quarterly Vol. 19 (1986), No. 4, pp. 439±457. From published sources, the author traces the relations between Russia and Finland from the February 1917 to the October Revolution. Stojko contends that the Finns' eight-month experience of Russian democracy `left a legacy of distrust, confirming the deep-rooted Russian adherence to the preservation of the Russian Empire'.

4414 Screen, J. E. O. Mannerheim: The Years of Preparation. London: C. Hurst & Co., 1970. x + 158 pp. A model of fairness, erudition and documentation in many languages and a welcome antidote to the partial portrait of its subject painted by JaÈgerskioÈld [4385] and others, this is possibly the best book about Mannerheim in any language, definitively illuminating his three decades' service in the Russian Army prior to October 1917.

Great Britain, Scandinavia and the Birth of Finland after the First World War', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 42 (1994), No. 3, pp. 355±375. A rather confusedly argued examination, based largely upon published secondary sources, of why Britain was willing to recognize Finnish independence during 1918 and 1919, but held back with regard to the Baltic States.

4415 Smith, C. J. Finland and the Russian Revolution, 1917±1922. Athens: University of Georgia Press, 1958. x + 251 pp. An unsatisfactory, strongly anti-Bolshevik survey, weakened by the author's lack of familiarity with Finnish politics and ignorance of the Finnish language. The main strength of the book is its detailed coverage of the East Karelian question and the relations between Finland and the Russian Whites. See also Smith, C. J. `Russia and the Origins of the Finnish Civil War of 1918', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 15 (1955), No. 4, pp. 481±502; and Smith, C.

Minneapolis, MN: University of Minnesota Press, 1980. 608 pp. A monumental, scholarly work, based upon a near exhaustive trawl of the Finnish archives, Upton's is the standard English-language work on the subject and is likely to remain so ± not least for its impartial approach and lively style.

An intriguing account of a little-known incident of August 1920, when a group of Finnish communists who had been expelled from their party assassinated eight of their former comrades at the Finnish Communist Club in Petrograd. The author also examines the subsequent treatment of the incident in the Soviet press and analyses its background in divisions within the Finnish Communist Party.

A historiographically interesting version of events from the Marxist point of view. The authors portray the Finnish working class as having led the struggle for national liberation since the establishment of the Social Democratic Party in 1899 and deplore the decision to end the general strike of November 1917, as `all the objective factors for the enactment of a proletarian revolution were extant' at that time.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 4430 Alexander, T. A Little of All These: An Estonian Childhood. London: Jonathan Cape, 1987. xviii + 168 pp. A rhapsodic account which relates rather than recollects the author's `Estonian childhood'. The romantic involvement of Alexander's mother with Robert Bruce Lockhart notwithstanding, the volume contains little of interest to the historian of the revolution or of early independent Estonia.

After a brief critique of the historiography of the issue, the author proceeds to examine the question of whether or not there would have been a German invasion of Estonia without Baltic German politics, surveys the discussion of the Estonian question at the conference, and explores the reaction among Estonians to a German-dictated solution to the Estonian question.

The author claims, largely on the basis of a survey of the contemporary press, that although all Estonian social groups rejected the post-1906 Russification policies of the tsarist government, cultural and political autonomy within the Empire, rather than secession from it, remained the nationalists' goal down to 1917.

Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1983. x + 421 pp. In this original (but appallingly copy-edited) volume the author examines, in the light of new sources, the role of the Latvian Riflemen in the making and spreading of the October Revolution, as well as the impact of the short-lived Iskolat Republic. The book is in three parts: `The Bolsheviks in Latvia'; `Latvians and Lenin'; and `Latvians in Russia'.

Berlin: Rigaer Volkstheoretische Abhandlungen, 1936. vii + 125 pp. Although the author's interpretation of social democracy in Latvia and its attitude to the national question is rather simplistic, and despite other obvious shortcomings as an historical work arising from the conditions under which it was written, the author of this study of Latvia's road to independence displays no mean degree of objectivity and familiarity with the available historical resources.

An excellent introduction to its subject, this lengthy article, based largely upon contemporary newspapers, surveys the development and strengthening of the Latvian national idea before and during the First World War, before analysing the emergence of calls for independence from groups on both sides of the front in Latvia during 1917 (the Riga Democratic Bloc and the Iskolat), relations between Latvia and the Provisional Government and the Soviet government, and the role of Latvian political parties.

4458 Ezergailis, A. The 1917 Revolution in Latvia. Boulder, CO: East European Quarterly, 1974. iv + 281 pp. The title of this volume is something of a misnomer, as the work actually concentrates largely upon the ideology and activity of the Latvian Social Democratic Party in 1917 and upon the Bolsheviks' influence within that party. The author's father was a Latvian Rifleman, but the account is painstakingly even-handed in its approach.

In this unevenly referenced piece the author argues that Lenin's April Theses triggered the subsequent `readiness to die for Lenin' of the Latvian Riflemen, although certain features of the work caused headaches for the Latvian Bolsheviks.

4478 Walters, M. Lettland, seine Entwicklung zum Staat und die baltischen Fragen. Rome: n.p., 1923. 509 pp. A monumental, if vague and very biased account of Latvia's struggle for independence by the country's first Minister of the Interior. The work provides important coverage of events in unoccupied Latvia during 1917 and during the German invasion of the following year.

4473 Page, S. W. The Geopolitics of Leninism. Boulder, CO: East European Quarterly, 1982. 238 pp. The author claims more for this work than it delivers. It is not a satisfying exploration of the theoretical underpinnings of Leninism, still less of its `geopolitics'. Rather, the volume deals at length with the Bolshevik revolution in Latvia, utilizing a typescript, in the possession of the author, which was apparently written by Vatsetis.

On the basis of published materials (many of them Latvian), the authors trace the forging of the relationship between the Bolsheviks and the Latvian Riflemen over the course of 1917 and detail the Strelki's role in the October Revolution and in defending Petrograd from counter-revolutionary attacks in the days thereafter.

Die Entstehung des Litauischen Staates in den Jahren 1918±1919 im Spiegel Deutscher Akten. Bochum: Studienverlag Dr. N. Brockmeyer, 1978. 408 + 15 + 9 pp. A solid if somewhat tedious published doctoral thesis which draws upon an impressive array of unpublished German sources to argue the author's case that, Berlin's interest in Lithuania as a counterweight to Poland notwithstanding, her preparedness to abandon the Baltic republic so as to score points with Soviet Russia (as finally demonstrated in 1939) was on the cards from the very beginning of Lithuania's independent existence. 4501 Cadzow, J. F. `Lithuania and the Provisional Government', Nationalities Papers Vol. 3 (1975), No. 1, pp. 19±33. A curiously titled piece which begins with the statement that the Provisional Government `had little effect on Lithuania' in 1917 because of the German occupation and which offers only the very briefest account of events during 1917, prefaced by a general and rather purposeless survey of the history of Lithuania from the thirteenth century. 4502 de Chambon, H.

Hailed by the editors as `the most authentic and detailed account' of `the first successful revolt in history against the Soviet regime', these memoirs are in fact written in a lurid style perhaps suitable for a juvenile adventure story.

The author was a leading figure in the independent Armenian republic, being the Dashnak (Dashnakc'ut'iwn) prime minister of the country from February 1919 to May 1920. His account covers the period from the February Revolution to the Treaty of Lausanne.

However, the work is probably more useful a source on the nature of Kautsky's thought than it is as a source for the history of Georgia.

A factual chronicle of relations between Georgia and Abkhazia during the civil-war period. The author concludes that in this period `the progressive representatives of the Abkhaz people . . . represented Abkhazia as an integral and inseparable part of Georgia', that Russians of all stamps (from monarchists to Bolsheviks) were intent on incorporating Abkhazia into Russia territory, and that the granting of Soviet Socialist Republic status to Abkhazia in 1921 was `a demonstration of the irresponsible attitude' of Georgian communists.

4627 Mandalian, J. G. `How the Soviets Wrecked Armenia's Independence', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 7 (1951), pp. 328±336. The author ± editor of the eÂmigreÂ nationalist journal, the Armenian Review ± herein presents a bitter account of how Soviet Russia not only `enslaved' Armenia but also wrecked the hopes of 1920 that, in line with the proposition of President Wilson and the Treaty of SeÁvres, Caucasian Armenia would be united with Turkish Armenia. The Bolsheviks' motive, he charges, was a desire to win support in the Muslim world by supporting Turkey's claim to the provinces (later recognized at the Treaty of Lausanne).

tiary Ambassador of the Republic of Armenia to the United States, of Armenian volunteer units' service on the Caucasian Front from 1914 to 1918.

London: Croom Helm, 1984. viii + 294 pp. The three central chapters of this exhaustively documented study form a strong indictment of the failure of British policy-makers to deal effectively with the Armenian question as the Ottoman Empire collapsed; they are preceded and followed by chapters on British Armenophiles from 1878 to 1923, based upon previously unused private papers and archival materials.

A detailed pro-Armenian chronological account of events in Armenia from 1914 to the summer of 1918. The author seeks to counter Soviet and `uninformed' scholarly studies of the genesis and history of the independent Armenian Republic, arguing that `the Armenian people, by their own efforts and with the support of the greater part of the population [created] the independent republic as an expression of national desire' and that Sovietization `represented imperial conquest and a denial of selfdetermination'. Although a third part of the piece was promised, it did not appear.

Boston: Baikar Press, 1934. 79 pp. A harsh polemic occasioned by the assassination of Archbishop Leon Tourian in New York. The author argues that the Dashnak (Dashnakc'ut'iwn) Party had originally been made up of `nationalists diluted with socialism' before it became `out and out socialist with bolshevistic leanings' and subsequently `even lean[ed] towards Fascism and even Hitlerism'.

The Caucasus and Transcaucasia . 4650 A swingeing attack on the Menshevik reÂgime by a Soviet author, with particular emphasis on Georgia's relations with the Allies and with the Whites during the civil war. The work, intended to counteract the negative impression produced among European socialists by the Soviet conquest of Georgia in 1921, is notable for its inclusion of numerous documents from the Georgian archives.

Suny (eds) Party, State and Society in the Russian Civil War: Explorations in Social History. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. pp. 324±348. A sympathetic account of the Mensheviks' experience in 1917 and, in particular, as the governing party of the Independent Republic of Georgia from 1918 to 1921, based mainly upon contemporary publications. Despite the internal and external threats to the reÂgime, the author argues, the record of democratic practice by the party was `extraordinary' ± partly as a consequence of favourable circumstances, but mainly as a consequence of the principled political choices made by the Social Democrats.

Tauris, 1995. xi + 276 pp. The last chapter of this study, which is based on the author's doctoral thesis, presents an introductory survey of the years of the revolution and civil war from a perspective clearly in sympathy with the Armenian cause. The author concludes that, as a consequence of the Bolsheviks' desire to establish friendly relations with Turkey on the one hand and the Allies' desire to wean the Turkish nationalists away from the Bolsheviks on the other, the `Armenian Question' was doomed to be resolved in a manner unpalatable to the Armenians. 4645 Stadelbauer, J. `Die kaukasische Peripherie des spaÈten Zarenreiches.

Essays in the History of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, 1996. pp. 241±260. An investigation of the role of social and class antagonism in the escalating political conflicts in the capitals of Georgia and Azerbaijan in 1917 to 1918, launched on the premise that historians have `either neglected unintentionally or skirted deliberately' this issue in portraying events in the borderlands as determined solely by ethnic conflicts between different nationalities. The author concludes that `in Baku the nationalist movement had to be imported on Turkish bayonets; in Tiflis it grew up from within'.

4646 Suny, R. G. The Baku Commune, 1917±1918. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1972. xxv + 412 pp. Although the author of this outstanding monograph strives for impartiality, his basic sympathy for Shahumian and the other Communards is never far from the surface. Nevertheless, on the basis of contemporary newspapers and a mass of secondary literature (both Armenian and Soviet), this seminal work remains the best available study of the interrelations of socio-economic and ethnic divisions determining the train of events, from the turn of the century onward, which culminated in the proclamation of Soviet power in Baku, as well as (as the title suggests) the history of the Baku Commune, its demise in the summer of 1918, and the fate of its leaders (the so-called `Twenty-six Commissars').

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1985. xiii + 256 pp. The bulk of this splendid (if poorly proof-read) monograph is concerned with the political in-fighting which took place between the various factions of the Azerbaijani intelligentsia. Utilizing a wide range of published Soviet, German, French, English and Turkish sources, the author argues, not always convincingly, that Islamic identity, rather than Turkic or national consciousness, was the key to Azerbaijani alliances and loyalties (especially with regard to their response to the Turkish invasion of 1918).

The author of this emotional piece, the Armenian writer Zaven Nalbanian, seeks to counter those Armenians who belittle the Armenian Republic of 1918 to 1920 for being territorially incomplete, for being the creation of one party (the Dashnaks) or sub-group (Eastern Armenians), etc. Defending the military and political record of the republic's leaders, he argues that `it were high time we took off our hats to their supreme act of valor and give their handiwork . . . the place of honor it justly merits in the history of the Armenian people'.

This account by Mustafa Chokaev, formerly President of the Provisional Government of Autonomous Turkestan at Kokand (1917±1918), is one of the most important sources on the history of the Basmachi, especially in its analysis of the weaknesses of the movement. The author is particularly critical of Irgash, Madamin and other Ferghana Basmachi and had no sympathy with the guerrilla fighting of the tribal leaders, being convinced of the superior efficacy of moral force.

Paris/The Hague: Mouton, 1964. 386 pp. Written in collaboration with some dozen Moslem eÂmigreÂ journalists from Russia, this handsomely produced but frustrating volume seems unable to make up its mind whether it is a history of Muslim publishing in Russia or a bibliographic guide to the subject. Its final section details the short-lived flowering of Muslim periodicals in the years 1917 to 1920.

Utilizing a variety of Russian archival materials the author offers a microanalysis of Basmachi activity in the Ferghana Valley, arguing that the crisis of the Russian colonial order was the starting point of the revolt. Buttino surveys the Red Army's use of Russians, Armenians and Germans to fight the Muslim rebels, and then examines its use of Muslims from other regions. However, Buttino finds also that some Russian settlers sided with the Basmachi, as did some Muslim communists.

On the basis of archives in Turkestan and published sources, the author analyses the socioeconomic roots of the 1916 rising in the colonial and anti-nomad policies of the imperial government (with particular regard to land allocation). Brower argues that, even without the additional hardships caused by wartime emergency measures, the likelihood of an anti-Russian rising was `very great'.

A brief but interesting account of the activities of the mysterious Kushji Bashi Zade Sami Beg, the PanTurkic activist who accompanied Enver Pasha to Bokhara, who succeeded Enver as head of the Basmachi upon his death in August 1922, who was subsequently responsible for attempting to conceal the fact of Enver's death, and who claimed leadership of a federation of the `Allied Revolutionary Governments of Turkestan, Bokhara and Khiva' in unsuccessfully seeking the assistance of Afghanistan and Britain. Fraser argues that Britain's error in regarding Sami merely as a bandit meant that a vital opportunity was lost to spare Central Asia from the evils of Bolshevism.

4693 Dumont, P. `La fascination du Bolchevisme: Enver Pasha et la parti des Soviets populaires, 1919± 1922', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 16 (1975), No. 2, pp. 141±166. The author dismisses Enver Pasha's Pan-Islamic and left-wing Muslim International of 1920 as, at best, an example of `palabres et cafeÂ' rather than a real revolutionary organization, describes the September 1921 congress at Batum as an `irredeemable 478

An account, sympathetic to Alim Khan, of the Red Army's storming of Bokhara in August 1920, of the Emir's exile in Afghanistan, and of his subsequent support of the Basmachi. The article is based upon British India Office papers and Alim Khan's appeal to the League of Nations (Said Alim Khan La Voix de la Boukharie opprimeÂe. Paris: Maisonneuve freÁres, 1929. 71 pp.). See also `Bukhara±Afghan Relations, 1920±1924', Central Asian Review Vol. 9 (1961), No. 1, pp. 90±94.

Central Asian Survey Vol. 11 (1992), No. 1, pp. 25± 50. A readable summary of Soviet efforts to eliminate Islam and other `backward' practices which, alleges the author, the Bolsheviks never really understood. 4703 Kendirbay, C. `Der Kampf um das Land in der kazachischen Steppe am Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts', JahrbuÈcher fuÈr Geschichte Osteuropas Vol. 47 (1999), No. 3, pp. 381±395. A survey of the struggle over land settlement between Kazakhs and Cossack and Russian settlers in the first two decades of the twentieth century, touching on relations between the Kazakh nationalist movement (Alash) and the Kadets during the Duma period and the Kazakhs' hope, post-February 1917, that the issue would be settled in their favour by the forthcoming Constituent Assembly.

4700 Fraser, G. `Enver Pasha's Bid for Turkestan, 1920±1922', Canadian Journal of History Vol. 22 (1988), No. 2, pp. 197±211. A detailed account of Enver's activities in Central Asia and of his attempt to unite the Basmachi, throwing particular light upon British suspicions of the movement. The author argues that British fears that Enver was an agent of Kemal AtatuÈrk (then challenging the peace settlement in Anatolia) led them to offer no diplomatic or military assistance to this anti-Bolshevik movement for fear that such a move might entail Pan-Islamic complications for India and Afghanistan.

4704 Khalid, A. `Tashkent 1917: Muslim Politics in Revolutionary Russia', Slavic Review Vol. 55 (1996), No. 2, pp. 270±296. Utilizing contemporary newspapers and archival sources, the author of this very detailed piece successfully attempts to fill a gap in the historiography by tracing the political attitudes and activities of the indigenous population of Tashkent during 1917 (as opposed to those of the Russian settlers). He finds that concepts of class conflict or of nationalist struggle against Russian authority are of little utility regarding this period, and seeks an explanation `in terms of competition within Muslim society [particularly between the Jadids and the Ulam~ Jamiyati] over cultural and moral authority', adding that Western historians' expectations of finding unity among the `natives' contain `a great deal of condescension'. See also Khalid, A. The Politics of Muslim Cultural Reform: Jadidism in Central Asia. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1998. xx + 335 pp.

4701 Hayit, B. Turkestan in XX. Jahrhundert Darmstadt: C. W. Leske Verlag, 1956. 406 pp. The author of this volume was an Uzbek major in the Soviet army who defected to the Germans in the Second World War and proceeded to gain a doctorate: Hayit, B. Die Nationalen Regierungen von Kokand (Choqand) und der Alash Orda (MuÈnster, 1950). Although the work is virulently anti-Soviet, it contains one of the most valuable general accounts of the rise of nationalism in Turkestan, the attempt to establish an autonomous reÂgime, and the Basmachi movement, based upon Russian, German and Turkestani sources. Hayit's thesis is that the Basmachis' motivation was `pan-Turk' rather than `panIslamic', and that they fought for political independence rather than for traditional Islam. See also Hayit, B. Sowjetrussische Orientpolitik am Beispiel Turkestans. Cologne/Berlin: Verlag Kiepenheuer & Witsch, 1962. 289 pp.; Hayit, B.

A. `The Revolt of the Basmachi According to Red Army Journals (1920± 1922)', Central Asian Survey Vol. 6 (1987), No. 3, pp. 1±35. On the basis of a survey of articles concerning the Basmachi in three local Red Army journals of the period, the author concludes that `the Russians, despite being perfectly informed of the facts and acts of their adversary, could not clearly define the causes

A useful concise summation, based on Western and Soviet published sources, of the origins, course and crushing of the Muslim resistance movement, which the author regards as `possibly the most pervasive challenge to Soviet rule' in the period 1918 to 1924.

4707 Limitaris `Turkestan since the Revolution', Asiatic Review Vol. 19 (1923), pp. 601±619. An overtly anti-Bolshevik chronicle of events in Central Asia from March 1917 to the early 1920s, in which the author seems unable to decide whether `Turkestan is being held by force' or by the power of the Bolsheviks' `fantastic lie' that if they were to `relinquish their hold on Turkestan, the British will immediately take possession of it and will drive the inhabitants into absolute slavery'.

4712 Olcott, M. B. The Kazakhs. Stanford, CA: Hoover Institution Press, 1987. xxiii + 341 pp. This general history of the Kazakhs includes one good chapter (pp. 129±156) surveying `The Russian Civil War in the Kazakh Steppe'. 4713 Olzscha, R. and Cleinow, G. Turkestan. Die politisch-historischen und wirtschaftlichen Probleme Zentralasiens. Leipzig: Koehler und Amelang, 1942. 433 pp. A detailed study of the events of 1917 to 1921, still useful despite its Nazi provenance.

(eds) Muslim Communities Reemerge: Historical Perspectives on Nationality, Politics, and Opposition in the Former Soviet Union and Yugoslavia. Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 1994. pp. 277±303. An interesting (if somewhat misleadingly entitled) examination of the origins of the Basmachi movement in the colonial history of the region. Concentrating upon Ferghana, the author argues that the disruption of grain imports and the collapse of the cotton industry under Soviet rule in 1918 were the crucial economic catalysts of the revolt, but he also discuses military and political events at some length.

4714 Omerkhan, A. `A History of the Establishment of Soviet Rule in Turkestan', East Turkic Review (Munich) Vol. 3 (1960), pp. 3±22. A brief general account which is notable for its claim that the Bolshevik authorities in Petrograd actually ordered the Tashkent Soviet to dissolve the Kokand government at the beginning of 1918. 4715 Oraltay, H. `The Alash Movement in Turkestan' Central Asian Survey Vol. 4 (1985), No. 2, pp. 41±58.

Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1974. xxxvi + 448 pp. A masterful account of how the `failure' of Central Asians to respond to the Bolsheviks' attempt to plan social change led the party to the unorthodox approach of exploiting sexual tensions in Islamic society in the absence of any real or substantial class conflict.

A chronological account of the Red Army's defeat of Dzhunaid-khan and the proclamation of the Khorezm People's Republic which uses a revealing account by N. M.

A chronicle of the Red Army's military activities in Turkestan from the October Revolution to the fall of Bukhara in 1920, based largely upon two Soviet works of the 1920s by participants in the events (G. Safarov and E. Kozlovskii). The anonymous author notes that Safarov's work contains `a particularly fierce indictment of the early Tashkent Soviet Government and its scandalous treatment of the Muslim population', while praising Kozlovskii's account for its `factuality and comparative honesty'.

4725 Shorish, M. M. `Islam and Nationalism in West Turkestan (Central Asia) on the Eve of the October Revolution', Nationalities Papers Vol. 12 (1984), No. 2, pp. 247±263.

A concise account, based upon published sources, of the extension of the Basmachi movement in Bokhara beyond the Soviet government's announcement of its termination, concentrating upon aspects of Ibrahim Bek's military and political leadership and upon the internationalization of the struggle after he shifted his base into Afghanistan.

The author details Enver Pasha's attempts to get to Moscow during 1919 and 1920, his arrival there in August 1920, his subsequent negotiations with the Bolshevik government, and his appearance at the Congress of the Peoples of the East, asserting that while failing to secure either Russian or German support for his Pan-Turanian dream, he played an unplanned role in facilitating the Moscow±Berlin rapprochement which was to bear fruit at Rapallo. The article is based on published sources (some in Turkish).

4727 Sonyel, S. R. `Enver Pasha and the Basmaji Movement in Central Asia', Middle Eastern Studies Vol. 26 (1990), pp. 52±64. Briefly, but with interesting details gleaned from British Foreign Office archives, the author of this piece chronicles Enver's activities in Central Asia from October 1921 to his death in August 1922. See also Sonyel, S. R. `Mustafa Kemal and Enver in Conflict, 1919±1922', Middle Eastern Studies Vol. 25 (1989), pp. 506±515. 4728 Springer, L.

Revolutionary Organizations and Revolutionaries in Interbellum Poland: A Bibliographical Biographical Study. Lewiston/Queenston/ Lampeter: Edward Mellen Press, 1992. xi + 278 pp. Despite its claim of including `over three thousand entries in ten languages', the material cited in this volume is predominantly Polish and is limited to items `not found in other major bibliographical studies'. Designed to cover the entire period from 1918 to 1990, and lacking indexes and cross-referencing, the volume is of limited use to anyone other than specialists already well-versed in the relevant sources.

An argument that far from inter-ethnic conflicts being rampant in Central Asia prior to the Soviet delimitations of national territories in the 1920s, Turkmen, Uzbeks and others (particularly among the local eÂlites) put many of their differences aside to concentrate upon the battle against the extension of Russian control over Khiva.

4736 Smogorzewski, C. AbreÂgeÂ d'une bibliographie relative aux relations germano-polonaises. Paris: Gebethner et Wolff, 1933. 114 pp. Although the focus of this volume is on Polish± German relations, its general section and sections dealing with the First World War, the Peace Conference and the Baltic are of interest to the student of the revolutionary period.

The author contends that, insofar as Kerensky tried to deny access to Root to any other than Poles sympathetic to his line on a union of Russia and Poland (notably Aleksandr Lednicki), this failure ultimately redounded to the advantage of the cause of Polish independence.

The author's contention is that part of the legend that General Weygand was responsible for the saving of Warsaw can be traced to the presenting of that version to Europe and America in 1920 by the exiled Paderewski, who was embittered against Piøsudski and anxious to boost his own political comeback and scotch the chances of his rival in the impending presidential elections.

A Polish communist professor's detailed account of Allied discussions of the Polish question at the Paris Peace Conference, providing a useful counterpoint to Western and Polish eÂmigreÂ writing on the subject. According to the author, the Allies hoped that Germany could provide the main barrier to the spread of revolution from Russia; Poland (and Czechoslovakia) were regarded as being of supplementary importance.

New Britain, CT: Central Connecticut State College, 1982. pp. 182±204. Carefully tracing the history of the Polish-American volunteers to fight in Poland (most of whom were ex-US servicemen), the author uses their story to epitomize what he regards as the `essentially proRussian' attitude of the US government.

4785 Biskupski, M. B. `War and the Diplomacy of Polish Independence, 1914±1918', Polish Review Vol. 35 (1990), No. 1, pp. 5±17. A stimulating analysis of the influence of three `actors' in the resurrection of Poland: the process of the First World War itself, independent of the will of its participants; the Great Powers; and the Poles. The author finds that `not only were the Poles the least significant actor in the drama of regaining their own independence, but the role allowed them only appeared when the major belligerents themselves became increasingly objects rather than subjects in the war'.

4782 Biskupski, M. B. `The Poles, the Root Mission and the Russian Provisional Government', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 63 (1985), No. 1, pp. 56±68.

A useful chronological account of the Soviet± Polish negotiations from the preliminary talks at Minsk in August 1920 to the ratification ceremony of 18 March 1921. The author regards the settlement as `another partition' of the borderlands `and, as usual, to the advantage of Russia', in that Poland regained only one-third of the territories it had possessed before the first partition of 1772.

4794 Davies, N. `Lloyd George and Poland, 1919± 1920', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 6 (1971), No. 3, pp. 132±154. Re-examining Lloyd George's policy towards Poland throughout the Soviet±Polish War (in the light of materials from the Lloyd George Papers), the author argues that the British Prime Minister's apparent unwillingness to support Poland was conditioned by domestic restraints (especially the fragility of his coalition government) on any hint of renewed intervention and by his desire to protect Britain's newly resuscitated trade with Russia. Had Warsaw fallen, so too would Lloyd George, speculates Davies intriguingly: therefore `paradoxically, it was the Poles who saved Lloyd George in 1920, and not Lloyd George who saved Poland'.

Utilizing documents not available to the authors of earlier studies ± notably Wandycz [4865] ± in this well-written and closely argued piece Bryant establishes that Piøsudski's counter-offensive of August 1920 could not have succeeded without General Weygand's reorganization of the Polish defences and the `stabilizing effect of his presence'; that Weygand's role was facilitated by Lloyd George's foresight in organizing the Allied mission; and that its success can be attributed to the `plain speaking and persistency' of D'Abernon. The author concludes that `Each of the four [men] contributed to Poland's victory.'

4795 Davies, N. `The Poles of Great Britain, 1914± 1919', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 50 (1972), pp. 63±89. A thorough and very amusing review of the confusion engendered in the British Foreign Office as a consequence of the in-fighting of the eÂmigreÂ Polish factions in wartime London, dwelling upon the activities of August Zaleski, Roman Dmowski and Jan Horodyski. The appendix provides a list of Polish organizations in London of 1914 to 1919. See also Davies, N. `Great Britain and the Polish Jews, 1918±1920', Journal of Contemporary History Vol. 8 (1973), No. 2, pp. 119±142.

4790 de Carency, J. [pseud.] Joseph Pilsudski, soldat de la Pologne restaureÂe. Paris: La Renaissance du Livre, 1929. 278 pp. A well-documented biography, complete with a useful bibliography. The author (Kazimierz Smogorzewski) presents an even-handed treatment of Piøsudski and his political opponents and displays a full knowledge of pre-war and wartime Polish politics.

4796 Davies, N. `Sir Maurice Hankey and the InterAllied Mission to Poland, July±August 1920', Historical Journal Vol. 15 (1972), No. 3, pp. 553±561.

Being an account, admiring but not uncritical in its tone, of Piøsudski's eastern policy (from his assumption of power in November 1918 to the final incorporation of the Vilna area in March 1922), this volume includes a wealth of material relating to Poland's relations with Petliura, Denikin and Wrangel. The author's thesis is that the federal idea failed because of Lithuanian and Ukrainian fears that it would serve as a smoke-screen for Polish hegemony. See also Dziewanowski, M. K. `Pilsudski's Federal Policy, 1919±1921', Journal of Central European Affairs Vol. 10 (1950), No. 2, pp. 113±128; No. 3, pp. 271±287; Dziewanowski, M.

London: Macdonald & Co., 1972. xviii + 308 pp. The first truly scholarly account of the war to appear in the West, this volume combines a detailed narrative of the military, political and diplomatic events with a brief review of the war's implications. It remains the definitive work. Aspects of the work's contentions were elaborated upon by the author in a number of articles. See Davies, N. `The Soviet High Command and the Battle of Warsaw', Soviet Studies Vol. 23 (1971±1972), No. 4, pp. 573±585; Davies, N. `August 1920', European Studies Review Vol. 3 (1973), No. 3, pp. 269±281; and Davies, N. `The Genesis of the Polish±Soviet War', European Studies Review Vol. 5 (1975), No. 1, pp. 47±67. 4798 Davies, N. `The Missing Revolutionary War: The Polish Campaigns and the Retreat from Revolution in Soviet Russia, 1919±1921', Soviet Studies Vol. 27 (1975), No. 2, pp. 178±195. The author argues that the history of the Soviet± Polish War should be regarded not as a sideline of the civil war and intervention, but as being intimately bound up with the general retreat from the fullblooded revolutionary programme which until that point had supplied the basis for Bolshevik policy.

4802 Elcock, H. J. `Britain and the Russo-Polish Frontier, 1919±1921', Historical Journal Vol. 12 (1969), No. 1, pp. 137±154. The author argues, on the basis of published and unpublished British government papers, that although Lloyd George acted to block Polish ambitions, he did so in the belief that this would best serve Poland's long-term interests by laying the foundations for a rapprochement between Poland and her neighbours.

4799 Devereux, R. Poland Reborn. London: Chapman & Hall, 1922. 256 pp. A general and rather journalistic discussion which is unremarkable save for the author's comments on `the Jewish problem'. He holds it to be `undeniable that the majority of the Jewish population made, and often in the basest way, common cause with the several enemies of Poland and grew rich upon the price of their treachery'.

4803 Fiddick, T. C. Russia's Retreat from Poland, 1920: From Permanent Revolution to Peaceful Coexistence. London: Macmillan, 1990. xiv + 348 pp. The author of this authoritative revisionist study explains the Red Army's sudden retreat from Warsaw as being a consequence of the Soviet leadership's willingness to compromise with non-communist reÂgimes, in Poland and elsewhere, in order to achieve peace, trade, domestic progress and political stability. Appended to the text are a historiographical note and nine documents in translation. See also Fiddick, T. `The Miracle on the Vistula: Soviet Policy versus Red Army Strategy', Journal of Modern History Vol. 45 (1973), No. 2, pp. 626±643.

(eds) The Cambridge History of Poland, Vol. II: From Augustus I to Pilsudski (1697±1935). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1941. pp. 461±480. An unremarkable textbook-style account, lacking footnotes and other apparatus, which focuses strongly and favourably on Piøsudski.

Poland and the Soviet±Polish War . 4814 standard published sources. Predominantly technical in his approach, the author nevertheless revels in portraying Tukhachevskii as a personality that `closely reflected the Asiatic side of Bolshevism' and who was ultimately handicapped by his assumption that Marxism was `a theology too modern and too civilized for the Russians'. Thus, `a return was made to their old Slav gods'.

This extremely useful volume collects papers, discussions, and commentaries delivered at a 1973 colloquium inspired by the publication of Norman Davies's White Eagle, Red Star [4797]. Davies and Colonel Le Groyet examine the roles of Weygand and Piøsudski; N. Kovalsky and F. Conte discuss, the Ukrainian aspect; Gervais and R. Girault analyse the diplomatic ramifications (and reproduce documents from the French archives); and J. Catteau and J. Stora-Sandor contribute pieces on the historicity of Babel's Red Cavalry.

4805 Garlicki, A. Jozef Pilsudski, 1867±1935 (transl., abridged and ed. by J. Coutouvidis). Aldershot: Scolar Press, 1995. xvii + 199 pp. This biography is abridged from the four-volume Polish original, published in 1988 after thirty years of research by the author (who was told by the communist authorities in 1972 that his work was not to be published because there was `little interest' in its subject). Unfortunately, as a consequence of the author's successive attempts to appease the censor, many sensitive topics were virtually omitted ± among them the Soviet±Polish War.

4810 Grabski, S. The Polish±Soviet Frontier. New York: Polish Information Center, 1944. 35 pp. A brief discussion of the frontier established by the Treat of Riga of 1921. The author was a leading member of the Polish delegation at the peace talks in Minsk and Riga, and was subsequently severely criticized by other Polish delegates and by Polish historians for his conciliatory attitude at the negotiations. 4811 Groth, J. `Polish Elections, 1918±1928', Slavic Review Vol. 24 (1965), No. 4, pp. 653±665.

A predominantly descriptive survey which emphasizes the lack of unity among the Ukrainians and the critical importance of the lack of a general Ukrainian uprising against the Bolsheviks. The author argues that `Poland abandoned the Ukrainians and signed the treaty of Riga when there was no chance for a unified campaign and total victory over Bolshevik Russia.

4812 Grzybowski, K. `The Jakhontoff Papers: Russo-Polish Relations, 1914±1916', Journal of Central European Affairs Vol. 18 (1958), No. 1, pp. 3±24. Following the acquisition of the Jakhontoff papers by the Library of Congress, the author discusses them as an important source facilitating a re-examination of N. M. Lapinski's 1926 TsentrArkhiv edition of Russo-Polish foreign policy documents. Grzybowski alleges that the papers of the former chief secretary of the Polish Council of Ministers will enable historians to check the authenticity of the Soviet history and to judge its omissions. See also Grzybowski, C. `Le gouvernement tzariste aÁ la veille de sa chute: le test de la question polonaise', Politique Vol. 2 (New Series), pp. 80±92.

J. `Poland's Policy towards Soviet Russia, 1921±1922', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 53 (1975), pp. 230±247. On the basis of British and American archival sources, the author carefully charts the `dual policy' pursued against each other by Warsaw and Moscow, noting that outwardly friendly relations were shadowed by the Bolsheviks' encouragement of German anti-Polonism and Comintern activity in the border areas, and by the Polish assistance to the incursions and plots of Petliura and Savinkov.

Included in the volume is a useful bibliographical essay and biographical sketches of twenty-seven major figures featured in the text.

4815 Himmer, R. `Soviet Policy toward Germany during the Russo-Polish War, 1920', Slavic Review Vol. 35 (1976), No. 4, pp. 665±682. On the basis of evidence which he admits to being `largely circumstantial', the author contends that Soviet overtures made to Germany in the period February to August 1920 were ± independent of the Politburo and contrary to the policy of Lenin ± the work of Trotsky, who was less confident than Lenin of inspiring revolution in Poland and Germany and set as a priority the securing of a broad Soviet± German political and economic alliance against the Entente. 4816 Hooker, J. R. `Lord Curzon and the ``Curzon Line'' ', Journal of Modern History Vol. 30 (1958), No. 2, pp. 137±138. In this note the author asserts that it is wrong to impute to Lord Curzon the authorship of `a line he never drew in an area he knew little about', noting that his association with the demarkation of the Russo-Polish frontier stems only from his reference to a League of Nations resolution on the subject (of 8 December 1919) in a note addressed to Chicherin dated 1 July 1919.

(eds) The Cambridge History of Poland, Vol. II: From Augustus I to Pilsudski (1697±1935). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1941. pp. 589± 615. An account bordering on the hagiographical, by the former E. Hilton Young, in which Piøsudski is portrayed as `the man who both in ability and strength of will stood head and shoulders above his fellow-countrymen'. Poland, adds the author, `owed to him more than to any other its resurrection from the grave of partition, and its salvation from the perils which beset its early years'.

Helsinki: Studia Historica Finlandiae, 1984. 180 pp. In this interesting and unusual work the author seeks to explain the importance for Poland of a sphere of interest in the Baltic, the ramifications of this upon Polish±Finnish relations, and the reasons why no Baltic bloc emerged.

[1944]. 62 pp. A historical survey (occasioned by the Soviet proposal of January 1944 for resurrecting the Curzon Line) by the former press attacheÂ of the Polish embassy in Berlin. The work is predicated on the assumption that the Curzon Line `was not by origin, and could not be, a satisfactory ethnic solution' to the question of the Soviet±Polish border.

Refuting the thesis of Gerson [2950], the author argues that at Paris Wilson did not show an unfair pro-Polish bias: `though he did manifest a strong sympathy toward the State he helped to resurrect, his primary consideration was the establishment of a just and enduring peace'.

London: Heinemann, 1957. xiii + 776 pp. A pioneering, if not entirely reliable, scholarly study of the diplomatic side of the rebirth of Poland, notable for its argument that Lloyd George was hostile to Poland and sought to trim her ambitions at every opportunity. The author, a faithful follower of Piøsudski (whose federalist scheme is particularly finely adumbrated herein), a distinguished diplomat and international lawyer, was at one time Poland's delegate to the League of Nations. The work includes an important bibliography of chiefly British and American sources. See also Cienciala, A. M. and Komarnicki, T. From Versailles to Locarno: Keys to Polish Foreign Policy, 1919±1925.

4831 Kusielewicz, E. `New Light on the Curzon Line', Polish Review Vol. 1 (1956), Nos 2±3, pp. 82± 88. The author argues that the Curzon Line was not intended by Wilson and the other Allied leaders to be the final demarcation of a Soviet±Polish border. To this end he reproduces a letter of October 1920 from Robert Lord, a member of the American delegation to the Paris Peace Conference, to Norman H.

A generally unremarkable (and unfootnoted) account in which the author contends that, notwithstanding the criticism articulated by some in Poland that insufficient effort was made to press home their advantage as victors, the Treaty of Riga was on the whole an acceptable settlement.

Poland, 1914±1931. London: Allen & Unwin, 1932. 447 pp. An admirable account, though overtly sympathetic to Piøsudski (to whom the author attributes all the credit for Poland's victory in the Soviet±Polish War in a lengthy chapter devoted to that subject).

As scholarly an analysis as can be expected of something published in the annual of an association of avowed German revisionists, this piece focuses on the question of whether a Soviet victory over Poland would have led to the restitution of former German territories and the extent to which the German government attempted to facilitate such a development. Interesting light is thrown too on the littleknown collaboration with the Soviet forces of Germans in Poland and the origins of the Soviet± German cooperation of the 1920s.

Pilsudski Institute of Research, 1987. 146 pp. The author of this short study seeks to show that neither Weygand nor the French government made a significant contribution to the Polish Army's turning of the Bolsheviks before Warsaw in August 1920. The impact of his thesis, however, is undermined by poor editing, factual errors and the author's failure to utilize French archives.

An exhaustive and fairly dispassionate biography. This is not a truly scholarly study, but in its day was probably the best work to have been published on Piøsudski. 4852 Reddaway, W. F. `The Peace Conference', in W. F. Reddaway et al. (eds) The Cambridge History of Poland, Vol. II: From Augustus I to Pilsudski (1697±1935). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1941. pp. 490±511. Lacking footnotes and other apparatus, this account is rather strong on pathos, portraying Polish independence as an issue `demanded by the conscience of mankind', even though Reddaway concedes that, in the minds of the Allied leaders, `morality was reinforced by expediency'.

4847 Perdelwitz, R. Die Polen im Weltkriege und die internationale Politik. Leipzig: Hirzel, 1939. 283 pp. A pseudo-scholarly study in which the author criticizes the Poles for their forgetfulness and ungratefulness regarding the important role played by Germany in their gaining of independence and for their exaggeration of the role of the Entente governments, whose `extreme dependence' on the Jews (especially in the case of Lloyd George) had led to the `particularly burdensome imposition' of minority rights on Poland.

London: Macmillan, 1992. pp. 158±177. In this piece the author charts the efforts required to establish the state and governmental institutions of reborn Poland, given that there had been no independent Polish administration for many decades, and Piøsudski's function as `a bridge to independence' ± `a one-man institution trusted by most of the major political forces in Poland except the revolutionaries'.

Useful background material on the international ramifications of the re-emergence of an independent Poland is provided in this survey of Western perceptions of the question in the first two years of the war. The author argues that, given the developing consensus in favour of independence among the various Polish factions of 1914 to 1916, `Poland cannot be considered a postwar creation by the Entente'.

The author argues that Curzon's note had contained an editorial error, `leading to an interpretation of that note that was totally unjust, erroneous, and unfavourable to Poland' and concludes that this was indicative of `a general lack of care and caution on the part of those entrusted with the preparation of that note ± so important to Poland'.

The first section of this paper reviews the conflicting views during the period 1918 to 1921 of those Poles, such as Roman Dmowski, who advocated some understanding with Russia over the border regions and those, such as Piøsudski, who aimed at detaching Ukraine and the Western and Baltic Provinces from Russia.

4859 Sosnowski, M. A. `Poland and American Polonia in 1919±1920', Polish Review Vol. 25 (1980), Nos 3±4, pp. 3±11. Reproduced here is an appeal to the Polish± American community for support for Poland made by a group of Polish writers in March 1920 (i.e., at the time of Poland's offensive into Ukraine), together with some commentary by Sosnowski. 4860 Stachura, P. D. `The Battle of Warsaw, August 1920, and the Development of the Second Polish Republic' in P. D. Stachura (ed.) Poland between the Wars, 1918±1939. London: Macmillan, 1998. pp. 43±59. Coming down firmly on the side of those for whom the Soviet±Polish War was a result of Lenin's desire to export the revolution to the West, the author argues that the `real and fundamental reasons' for the Poles' `stunning victory' in August 1920 lay in `the sense of national purpose and patriotism that was generated in Poland'. Discussing the situation of the non-Polish minorities, which was `thrown into sharp relief' by the war, Stachura argues further, and provocatively, that both the resultant anti-Semitism and, equally importantly, Jewish anti-Polonism `scarred relations between the two communities' from then on. For a more detailed elaboration of his thesis that `Jewish polonophobia was as powerfully on display as Polish anti-semitism', See also Stachura, P. D. `National Identity and the Ethnic Minorities', in P. D. Stachura (ed.) Poland between the Wars, 1918±1939. London: Macmillan, 1998. pp.

Based on a wide range of secondary sources concerning Polish issues and the canonical traditions of Ukrainian historiography, the author argues that Polish±Ukrainian relations in 1918 were complicated by the fact that the two nations were at substantially different points in their national development: the national revival unleashed in Ukraine by the events of 1917 had proved a `very confusing process' in which ` ``normal'' stages of development were reversed', leading to `ideological fanaticism and ethnographic determinism' which consequently provoked Polish intransigence. 4864 Wagner, G. Deutschland und der Polnisch± Sowetische Krieg 1920. Wiesbaden: Franz Steiner Verlag, 1979. viii + 294 pp. The focus of this interesting volume is the German neutrality decision of July 1920, which, the author 494

Poland and the Soviet±Polish War . 4874 maintains, could not conceal the anti-Polish thrust of German policy and popular opinion and had an influence on the combatants which could only be to the benefit of Soviet Russia.

The author traces the Polish federal idea back to the Jagellonian monarchy before surveying Piøsudski's support of a Polish±Lithuanian±Ukrainian federation. It was this idea, argues the author, . which led Piøsudski to encourage General L. Zeligowski's annexation of Vilna and Petliura's occupation of Kiev.

4865 Wandycz, P. S. `General Weygand and the Battle of Warsaw of 1920', Journal of Central European Affairs Vol. 19 (1959), No. 4, pp. 357±365. Utilizing the unpublished memoirs of General Rozwadowski and the published memoirs of General Weygand, the author challenges the `legend' that the `Miracle on the Vistula' was the work of Weygand rather than Piøsudski, and traces the joint origin of the story to right-wing groups in Poland who were hostile to Piøsudski and to French rightwing supporters of Millerand's presidential campaign.

4871 Westoby, A. and Blick, R. `Early Soviet Designs on Poland', Survey Vol. 26 (1982), No. 4, pp. 110±126. An essay, based upon published sources, examining Bolshevik plans in 1920 for the conquest of Poland and, specifically, for the partition of Poland between Soviet Russia and Germany. For the authors, the Bolsheviks would have struck such a deal with a workers' government in Berlin, but would not have baulked at an agreement with a capitalist government if necessary. Evidence, they claim, tends to confirm that `if the Bolshevik armies had triumphed in 1920, Poland would have vanished from the map 19 years before it did'.

4867 Wandycz, P. S. `Secret Soviet±Polish Peace Talks in 1919', Slavic Review, Vol. 24 (1965), No. 3, pp. 425±449. In this piece the author examines how fear of Denikin's commitment to a united Russia led Piøsudski to enter a secret truce with the Bolsheviks at the height of the success of the Armed Forces of South Russia in the autumn of 1919.

4872 Weygand, M. `The Red Army and the Polish War, 1920', in B. H. Liddell-Hart (ed.) The Soviet Army. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1956. pp. 45±51. A brief factual chronicle of the Soviet±Polish War.

4868 Wandycz, P. S. Soviet±Polish Relations, 1917± 1921. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1969. ix + 403 pp. This volume constitutes the standard study of the diplomatic ramifications of the Soviet±Polish War and its antecedents, and is based upon much unpublished Polish, Russian and British archival material. The author, although a Pole whose sympathies are clearly on the side of Piøsudski, dispassionately argues that the conflict was neither a war of `Polish imperialism' nor an issue of Russian self-determination, but a struggle between Warsaw and Moscow over territory of crucial strategic importance to both.

Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1984±1993. xv + 952 + 737 + x + 872 + 864 + 886 pp. While volumes 3±5 of this encyclopedia (edited by D. H. Struk), which appeared after the collapse of the Soviet Union, clearly make a greater effort to meet higher standards in terms of scholarly detachment than the first two volumes (edited by V. KubijovycÏ), this work is overtly nationalist to a point at times bordering on the scurrilous. The encyclopedia is a fascinating source of reference for those interested in national Ukrainian historiography, but needs to be approached carefully as a first point of reference. Accompanying the publication is a separate 36-page Map and Gazetteer volume published in 1984.

4881 Korduba, M. La LitteÂrature historique sovieÂtique-ukrainienne. Compte-rendu 1917±1931.

Compte-rendu 1917±1931', which provides a comprehensive survey of Ukrainian historical writing in the period, with brief evaluations of major works; and `La litteÂrature historique ukrainienne en Pologne et dans l'eÂmigration ukrainienne. Compte-rendu 1927±1928'.

4877 Mirchuk, I. (ed.) Ukraine and Its People: A Handbook. Jersey City, NJ: Svoboda Press, 1949. 280 pp. Highly critical of all things Russian and all things Polish, but still a useful guide to many aspects of Ukrainian life and culture.

Ukraine . 4890 This volume contains references to more than 3,000 works (in fourteen languages) on the political, socio-economic and cultural history of Galicia with subject and name indexes. Chapter 7, devoted to the years 1919 to 1939, includes sections on `The Establishment of Polish Rule, 1918±1923', `Polish± Ukrainian War and the Ukrainian Galician Army, 1918±1919', `Galicia and the International Scene, 1918±1923', and `Socioeconomic Developments and the Communist Party'. The preceding chapter includes a section on the First World War.

The bulk of the items listed in this unannotated and rather confusingly organized bibliography are in the Ukrainian language. The general introduction is crudely apologetic and alleges that Petliura's killer, Schwartzbard, was a paid agent of the Soviet secret police. 4888 Weres, R. (comp.) Ukraine: Selected References in the English Language. Chicago: Ukrainian Research and Information Institute, 1974. 312 pp. This volume lists 1,958 items, most of them with brief descriptive annotations. Citations are arranged under sixteen broad subject headings, with author and subject indexes. There are gaps in the coverage (there being a heavy concentration on post-1940 imprints of books and articles published by Ukrainian eÂmigreÂs) and some inaccuracies, but this volume may nevertheless be considered a pioneering work.

Particularly valuable are the references to the pamphlet literature of the years 1918 to 1919, including that intended for the eyes of Western governments and their publics and the peace-makers at Paris.

4889 Wynar, B. S. (ed.) Ukraine: A Bibliographic Guide to English-Language Publications. Englewood, CO: Libraries Unlimited/Ukrainian Academic Press, 1990. xiii + 406 pp. An extensively annotated and carefully indexed bibliography of books, doctoral dissertations, and selected articles. Although the volume concentrates on works published from the 1950s to mid-1989, it is the best reference work of its type available. Published reviews are also listed. There are 1,084 numbered entries, but thousands more titles (including non-English-language imprints) are subsumed within the critical annotations. A revised and updated version has recently appeared: see Wynar, B. S. Independent Ukraine: A Bibliographic Guide to English-Language Publications, 1899±1999.

Toronto: New Review Books, 1971/1975. xv + 376 + xv + 387 pp. The fifth and sixth volumes of a projected series which never materialized, the first volume of this disappointing and now dated bibliography contains two chapters on general sources and on Ukraine in the pre-revolutionary era; the second contains five chapters on the period March 1917 to April 1920. The items listed (in several languages) are unannotated and untranslated, often with incomplete bibliographical information.

Historiography

Symonenko's Polemics. Toronto/New York: New Review Books, 1968. 36 pp. A useful, if overtly nationalistic, description of Ukrainian eÂmigreÂ writings on the revolutionary period, from contemporary leaflets and periodical publications to the scholarly publications of the 1950s and 1960s. Appended is `A List of Ukrainian Historians Repressed by Soviet Authorities', giving brief details of the fates of 218 writers. The piece was inspired by what the author terms the `disgraceful' Soviet critique of Ukrainian historiography published by R. Symonenko [4898].

4891 Doroshenko, D. `Ukrainian Historiography since 1914', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 3 (1924), pp. 233±239. A brief listing and discussion of historical publications in Ukraine and by eÂmigreÂ historians. See also Doroshenko, D. `A Survey of Ukrainian Historiography', Annals of the Ukrainian Academy of Arts and Sciences Vols 5±6 (1957), No. 4, pp. 9± 304. 4892 Himka, J.-P. `The National and the Social in the Ukrainian Revolution of 1917±1920: The Historiographical Agenda', Archiv fuÈr Sozialgeschichte Vol. 34 (1994), pp. 95±110. An excellent introduction to the highly polarized historiography of how the socialist and nationalist aspects of the Ukrainian revolution came to confront one another after 1917. The author examines the strengths and weaknesses of Ukrainian nationalist and Soviet writings on the period, as well as other works touching upon the subject, provides references to memoir and archival sources available in the West, and proposes an outline of the agenda for new approaches (based on social history) in the light of the collapse of communism.

4897 Rudnytsky, I. L. `Volodymyr Vynnychenko's Ideas in the Light of His Political Writings' (transl. by B. Klid), Annals of the Ukrainian Academy of Arts and Sciences in the United States Vol. 16 (1984±1985), pp. 251±274. Part of an issue of the Annals dedicated to Vynnychenko, this fair but critical analysis concentrates upon its subject's interpretation of the Ukrainian revolution and his own role in it (as General Secretary of the Rada in 1917 and Chairman of the Directory of the Ukrainian People's Republic a year later), as exhibited in his three-volume Vidrodzennja naciji and other works published in Vienna and Kiev in the years 1919 to 1920. The paper serves as an excellent introduction to Vynnychenko and his works.

4893 Jurczenko, O. `The Bolshevik Conquest of the Ukraine: The Current Soviet Approach', Ukrainian Review No. 1 (1955), pp. 5±28. A review of some Soviet works of the early 1950s, together with a discussion of the contributions of the eÂmigreÂ historian D. Doroshenko. The author was a noted jurist and former associate of the Ukrainian Academy in Kiev.

The author of this piece makes a number of interesting points regarding Soviet writing on Ukraine, but is too self-assuredly polemical in his approach to allow the poignancy implicit in his asides to come fully to the fore.

4894 Matiaszek, P. `The Ukrainian Tsentral'na Rada of 1917: An Analysis of the Historical Literature', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 43 (1987), Nos 1±2, pp. 50±63. A rather simplistic description of some Polish, eÂmigreÂ, Western, Russian and Soviet writings on the Rada, useful only as an introductory bibliographic guide.

4899 Velychenko, S. Shaping Identity in Eastern Europe and Russia: Soviet-Russian and Polish Accounts of Ukrainian History, 1914±1991. New York: St Martin's Press, 1993. iv + 266 pp. A conventional (if generally informative) discussion predicated, as far as the early Soviet period is concerned, on the somewhat dated assumption that the party did not begin `interfering in its own historiography' until the late 1920s.

4895 Ohloblyn, O. `Ukrainian Historiography 1917±1956', Annals of the Ukrainian Academy of Arts and Sciences in the United States Vols 5±6 (1957), No. 4 (18), pp. 305±435. This general historiographical survey includes fairly extensive references to materials dealing with the revolutionary period.

4905 Mazlakh, S. and Shakhrai, V. On the Current Situation in the Ukraine (ed. by P. J. Potichnyj; introd. by M. M. Luther). Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press, 1970. xxxiv + 220 pp. This unusual and significant volume, the first theoretical formulation of National Communism, was originally published in 1919 (under the title Do Khvyli) but was long banned by the Soviet government. As Luther notes in his introduction, it constitutes `a cry of despair over a revolution that was betraying a nation', but the authors employ a degree of sarcasm and wit in ridiculing Rakovski's ignorance of Ukrainian matters and in posing some `Questions for Comrade Lenin', asking why his policies of 1918 to 1919 did not correspond with his earlier pronouncements on the nationalities question.

4901 Yurchenko, O. `The First Stage in the Bolshevik Conquest of the Ukraine: A Review of Some Soviet Anniversary Publications', Ukrainian Review No. 6 (1958), pp. 56±67. The author argues that, contrary to the assertions made by Soviet historians, `December 1917 marked, not the creation of the Ukrainian SSR, but the beginning of the Bolsheviks' struggle for the seizure of the Ukraine' and that the Ukrainian populace did not submit voluntarily to the Soviets.

In sum, the volumes include 1,115 documents. Volume I presents documents dealing with the status of the Ukrainian question in the Austro-Hungarian Empire during the First World War, the restoration of Ukrainian autonomy and independence in 1917, and the history of the Rada to 29 April 1918. Volume II includes documents relating to the Central Powers' treaty with the Ukraine at Brest-Litovsk and to a variety of religious affairs. Volume III includes documents relating to the establishment of the Skoropadskyi Hetmanate and to the domestic and foreign policies of that reÂgime. Volume IV covers the period from the establishment of the Hetmanate to the autumn of 1922.

S. `The East European Revolution, 1917±1921: Capture of the Ukrainian Capital by Russian Troops', New Review: A Journal of EastEuropean History Vol. 4 (1964), No. 1 (14), pp. 39± 56. A collection of twenty-five documents (some from German archives, others from rather obscure Soviet publications) from the period 16 December 1917 to 17 February 1918. The documents are annotated by Pidhainy, who seeks to demonstrate that `the ephemeral Soviet power in the Ukrainian capital was being established through foreign (Russian) armed intervention', rather than through the will of the inhabitants of Kiev. 4907 Pidhainy, O. S. `The East-European Revolution, 1917±1921: Unpublished Diplomatic Reports of the American Consular Service in the Ukrainian Capital (December 1917±March 1918)', New Review: A Journal of East-European History Vol. 4 (1964), Nos 2±3 (15±16), pp. 63±88. Included here are eight reports and letters from Kiev by the American Consul in the city, Douglas Jenkins, regarding political and military developments. The items include lengthy extracts from contemporary Ukrainian newspapers.

4903 Hryhorijiv, N. (ed.) The War and Ukrainian Democracy: A Compilation of Documents from the Past and Present. Toronto: n.p., 1945. 206 pp. Presented from a Ukrainian socialist point of view, this volume includes a number of important documents from the period.

4908 Die Probleme der Sowet-Ukraine. Berlin: A. Seehof, 1920. 47 pp. Includes articles on Ukraine and Soviet±Ukrainian relations by V. I. Lenin, M. Pavlovich and K. Rakovski.

4904 Korol, N. `Bolshevik Documents on the Conquest of the Ukraine', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 16 (1960), pp. 164±176. Quoting extensively from published Soviet sources, the author of this rather uninteresting survey of the events of 1917 to 1918 seeks to affirm that `the establishment of the genuine independence of Ukraine has been firmly ascertained and fixed forever in official documents and literature, including Bolshevik writings'.

4910 . 23 National Minorities and Regional Affairs prepared for the Sixth All-Ukrainian Congress of Soviets in Khar'kov in December 1921. Each of the three sections (dealing with Soviet Ukraine's dealings with Western governments, with Roumania, and with Poland) have general introductions and the latter two have appendices containing non-official documents designed to underscore Soviet territorial claims. Twenty-seven facsimiles complete the volume.

4915 Ukrainian National Council The Ukrainians and the European War. Jersey City, NJ: Ukrainian National Council, 1915. 64 pp. This volume includes nine short texts and declarations (originally published elsewhere) which were designed to convince the US public that the Ukrainians were `united in race, sentiment and aspirations' and that they were pro-Ally (while being critical of British attitudes toward the small nations of the Russian Empire). Unintentionally, the volume provides evidence of the erratic, disparate and often obscure nature of much of the Ukrainian nationalist movement and of its deeply disturbed attitude toward the Jews.

4911 Dnistrianskyj, S. Ukrainian Problems: Ukraine and the Peace Conference. London: n.p., 1919. 177 pp. A collection of documents, memoranda and notes presented to the British government by the Ukrainian diplomatic mission in London.

4924 Dubreuil, C. Deux AnneÂes en Ukraine (1917± 1919). Paris: Henry Paulin, 1919. 143 pp. Less than half of this volume actually consists of the author's recollections of his stay in Kiev (as a lecturer in the history of French literature) and the bulk of his impressions are based on hearsay and general knowledge rather than on more genuine firsthand observation. The rest of the volume consists of a general survey of Ukraine and its qualities and characteristics, which is overtly sympathetic to the nationalist cause.

Ukraine: Her Struggle for Freedom. n.p.: Free Ukraine, 1951. 80 pp. The author was a member of the Central Rada and served later as a member of the Ukrainian Partisan Committee which organized guerrilla war against Russia from 1919 to 1920. Included in this short work is a good bibliography of important works in English, French and German.

4922 Choulguine, A. L'Ukraine et le cauchemar rouge. Les Massacres en Ukraine. Paris: EÂditions Jules Tallandier, 1927. 222 pp. The stated purpose of the author, the perpetual eÂmigreÂ foreign minister of the Ukrainian Republic, was to defend the `great memory' of the recently assassinated Petliura `against all calumnies', and in particular the charge that he was a pogromchik. See also the memoir, rushed into print following Petliura's assassination: Choulguine. A. Un crime mysteÂrieux. MeÂmoire d'Alexandre Choulguine.

Presented here are extracts from the diary of a noblewoman from one of the richest families in Ekaterinoslav, covering the period 28 December 1917 to 22 March 1918 and providing a vivid picture of the chaotic conditions of the city during the Bolshevik rising and under Bolshevik rule prior to the German and Austro-Hungarian occupation. 4940 Vientzev, I.

Ukraine . 4950 Although written more than sixty years after the events it describes, this account of the author's Red Army and intelligence service in the Ukraine and in White-held Odessa and the Crimea provides a vivid and humane portrait of the people's suffering on both sides of the front line.

An apologetic pamphlet denying not only that Petliura held any responsibility whatsoever for the pogroms but also that Bandera had any knowledge of the Shoah. 4945 Bailly, R. A City Fights for Freedom: The Rising of LwoÂw in 1918±1919. An Episode in the History of Poland (transl. by S. S. B. Taylor). London: Publishing Committee Leopolis, 1956. 396 pp. A very detailed, generously illustrated but unashamedly partisan account of the city's `struggle to remain Polish' in the face of `the Ukrainian peril'. This volume is in many respects unscholarly (lacking, for example, both footnotes and bibliography), but presents a vivid portrait of a turbulent episode which has been little studied in Western literature.

Studies (Domestic Affairs) 4941 Adams, A. E. The Bolsheviks in the Ukraine: The Second Campaign, 1918±1919. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1963. 440 pp. The most detailed study of the Red Army's campaigns in the Ukraine, paying particular attention to the role and activities of partisan units such as that of Otoman Hryhor'ev (Grigoriev) and Simon Petliura, to the chaotic peasant jacqueries of the period, and to the crucial importance of the land question in the Ukraine. This prize-winning volume remains a compelling, readable and impeccably scholarly work. For earlier summaries of parts of this work see: Adams, A. E. `The Bolsheviks and the Ukraine, 1918', Review of Politics Vol. 20 (1958), pp. 289±306; and Adams, A.

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1977. pp. 104±127. A generally even-handed assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the Bolsheviks in Ukraine, from the unsuccessful rising and invasion beginning in December 1917 to the final subjugation of the nationalists in the summer of 1920.

The author examines the events in the Ukraine of 1918 to 1920 in terms of a diverse `peasant-Cossack Jacquerie . . ., a social chaos so turbulent that it literally destroyed the best-laid plans of political parties and governments', and contends that the Bolsheviks only triumphed when this elemental force had `burned itself out'. Similar ideas are explored in the author's reply to I. L. Rudnytsky's `The Role of the Ukraine in Modern History' [5033] ± see Adams, A. E. `The Awakening of the Ukraine', Slavic Review Vol. 22 (1963), No. 2, pp. 217±223.

A general, rather simplistic discussion, utilizing a fair range of the standard literature, of developments to the early 1920s. The author argues that a direct identity existed between Bolshevik policies and the `Russia one-and-indivisible of the preceding reÂgime' and views the Ukrainian communists as being `caught in a dilemma of how to reconcile their ideological positions . . . with purely Ukrainian national interests' ± something `they obviously would not do' because `Bolshevism was intrinsically averse to strictly national aspirations and interests'.

4956 Budzynskyi, O. `The Fourth Universal of the Ukrainian Central Rada', Ukrainian Review Vol. 45 (1998), No. 1, pp. 34±39. Reviewing the document as the `outcome and culmination' of earlier state-building efforts, the author argues that it was a legitimate act, that thenceforward Ukraine was, de jure, an independent state, and that `whether or not other states recognized the independent Ukraine was a matter of political pragmatism ± not law'.

4953 Borys, J. The Russian Communist Party and the Sovietization of the Ukraine: A Study in the Communist Doctrine of the Self-Determination of Nations. Stockholm: Boktryckeriet and Norstedt, 1960. 374 pp. Being a critical and erudite account of the crushing of Ukrainian nationalism, based upon a vast array of sources, this work falls into three parts: a study of the development of the Ukrainian National Movement to 1917; an account of the movement's development from 1917 to 1919, together with an examination of the growth of political parties; and a description of Bolshevik activity and policy in the Ukraine to 1921. The volume is notable for its pioneering coverage of sociological and economic aspects of its subject, in addition to the purely political, and contains a very useful bibliography. The book was subsequently reworked and republished as Borys, J. The Sovietization of the Ukraine, 1917±1923: The Communist Doctrine and Practice of Self-Determination.

an expression of `the French natural sympathy for the Ukrainians' and proceeds to present a paean to `the great Ukrainian patriot Simon Petlura who consecrated his life to the liberation of his oppressed country'. The volume does, however, include a revealing analysis of the trial of Petliura's assassin. An inferior English translation was published as Desroches, A. The Ukrainian Problem and Symon Petlura.

4970 Dushnyck, W. `The Kerensky Government and the Ukrainian Central Rada', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 23 (1967), pp. 109±121. The tenor of this unremarkable nationalist survey is that `the Provisional Government proved to be far more Russian than democratic', although it is not devoid of all sympathy for Kerensky's predicament and is critical of the internationalist tendencies of Ukrainian Socialists and Social Democrats.

A detailed description of the life of the Ukrainian communist and friend of Lenin, concentrating upon his role in the `Ukrainization' of the state apparatus, press and school system.

4977 Hoffman, J. H. `V. Stepankovsky, Ukrainian Nationalist and German Agent', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 50 (1972), pp. 594±602. Challenging the assertion of Fritz Fischer (see [2489], p. 137) that the renegade Ukrainian nationalist `played an important role' in Germany's Ukrainian policy, on the basis of German and British archives the author finds that Stepanovskii provided no useful information and contacts for Berlin and, by late 1917, had actually switched sides and was courting the support of the Allies for Ukrainian separatism.

4972 Fedorova, L. and Pankova, S. `The ``Goal, Meaning and Fortune'' of Mykhaylo Hrushevskyi's Life', Ukrainian Review Vol. 45 (1998), No. 2, pp. 25± 42.

A brilliant characterization of popular response to the Ukrainian nationalist cause in 1917. In the light of social and economic conditions prevailing in the country and on the basis of an analysis of election returns, the author highlights the movement's potential among the peasantry and its ultimately fatal weakness in the towns.

New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1941. xx + 629 pp. A general survey by Ukraine's premier scholar and political leader of the revolutionary period. The latter part of the book, dealing with the national renaissance, is particularly useful, but Hrushevskyi's contribution as author ends with the year 1918 (the subsequent period, to 1940, being dealt with in an additional chapter by Frederiksen). On the author, see Shulgin, A. `Mykhailo Hrushevsky (1866±1934)', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 14 (1935), pp. 176±181; Simpson, B.

Toronto: Ukrainian Historical Association, 1985. 61 pp. The body of this volume appeared originally as Hunczak, T. `A Reappraisal of Symon Petliura and Ukrainian±Jewish Relations, 1917±1921', Jewish Social Studies Vol. 31 (1969), No. 3, pp. 163±183. Appended here is the author's reply to a furious critique of the original article by Zosa Szajkowski ± Jewish Social Studies Vol. 31 (1969), No. 3, pp. 184± 213 ± but not the critique itself and not Szajkowski's `reply to the reply' (Jewish Social Studies, loc. cit.). Seeking to rebut the `absurd' charge that Petliura was anti-Semitic, Hunczak portrays him as a Judeophile `champion of equality and tribune of the downtrodden', whose government's principled and resolute efforts to fight anti-Jewish excess of the Ukrainian peasantry and the vicious otomani and batky of their own and others' armies failed `due to the limited resources of the Directory'.

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1977. 424 pp. A very important collection of fourteen articles (listed and annotated separately in this bibliography) by Western experts, focusing upon developments in Eastern Ukraine. The first five contributions are organized chronologically to provide the best survey of events from February 1917 to the Bolshevik takeover; the remainder are thematic, covering political parties, the Church, the agrarian revolution, Makhno and German, Allied and American relations with the Ukraine. Appended (pp. 382±395) are the texts of the Rada's four `Universals' and an excellent map. For commentary on this volume, see Lamis, A.

The volume includes six maps.

4990 Kouchtchouk, O. `Petlura et la politique des minoriteÂs en Ukraine', L'Est EuropeÂen No. 196 (1984), pp. 33±46. A nationalist defence of Petliura as the protector of minorities and a Judeophile, written in response to an article, perpetuating what the author refers to as the `myth' of Petliura's anti-Semitism, by Jean-Pierre Imbrohoris in Femme moderne No. 1855.

4996 Liber, G. `Ukrainian Nationalism and the 1918 Law on a National-Personal Autonomy', Nationalities Papers Vol. 15 (1987), No. 1, pp. 22±42. An insightful and sophisticated analysis of the law's `ideological development and pragmatic considerations in the light of the strengths and weaknesses of the Ukrainian nationalist movement in 1917 and 1918'. The author concludes that, although from July 1917 pragmatic considerations began to dominate Ukrainian relations with non-Ukrainians in Ukraine, the evolution of the law was a sincere attempt on the part of the Rada's leadership to come to an understanding with non-Ukrainian minorities.

New York: St Martin's Press, 1985. xix + 333 pp. Although overtly nationalist in its sympathies and entirely skipping the years of the revolution and civil war, this chronological survey contains an insightful introductory chapter (`Ukrainian Society on the Eve of the Revolution') which makes good use of the censuses of 1897 and 1926.

Cambridge, MA: Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute and the Ukrainian Academy of Arts and Sciences, 1983. xiv + 334 pp. Although the main focus of this work is on Mykola Skrypnyk and the period of `Ukrainization' of 1923 to 1933, the earlier sections of this wellcrafted and extensively documented work address the origins of the communist movement in Ukraine and the movements's relations with Moscow in the revolutionary period.

4993 Krawchenko, B. `The Social Structure of Ukraine in 1917', Harvard Ukrainian Studies Vol. 14 (1990), Nos 1±2, pp. 97±112. Utilizing recently published Soviet scholarship to fill in the notable gap in his earlier book [4992], the author here attempts to describe the population size, urban centres, and occupation and class structure of Ukraine during the revolution. Krawchenko argues that the revolution in Ukraine was so complex because `no single social group could assert hegemony'.

One of the least-known but longest-lasting of the small republics which sprang up on the borders of the disintegrating Austro-Hungarian and Russian empires is the subject of this piece ± it existed from December 1918 to March 1920. The author attempts to outline the basic facts concerning the history of the republic and to indicate the general trends of political thought and nationalism in the region during the revolutionary era.

5005 Mark, R. A. `Social Questions and National Revolution: The Ukrainian National Republic in 1919±1920', Harvard Ukrainian Studies Vol. 14 (1990), Nos 1±2, pp. 113±131. Arguing that the military and political events in Ukraine of 1919 to 1920 were not `part of an ongoing process that was continually opening up new parameters', but `the conclusion of a development whose driving forces were already exhausted in the spring of 1919' ± not least because of the disintegration of Ukrainian political parties ± the author of this astute piece attempts to describe how it was that Petliura was nevertheless able to keep the nationalist flag flying for two more years. Mark finds that chiefly responsible was the opportunity offered to Ukraine by the military stand-off between the Reds, the Whites and the Poles.

5001 Magocsi, P. R. A History of Ukraine. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1996. xxvi + 784 pp. An excellent first point of reference, which includes a lengthy section (pp. 461±520) on the First World War and the struggle for independence, although the author's narrative is uninhibitedly affirmative and nationalist and tends toward the non-committal on such issues as the pogroms of the revolutionary period.

5002 Majstrenko, I. Borot'bism: A Chapter in the History of Ukrainian Communism. New York: Praeger, 1954. xv + 325 pp. An extraordinary comprehensive discussion of the Ukrainian Socialists-Revolutionists in general and the Ukrainian Left-SRs (UPSR Left) in particular ± a party which accepted the Soviet platform ± by one of the few borot'bisty who survived to tell the tale. The author collected an enormous amount of material and, far from offering an apologia for the movement's failures, achieved in his authorship of this volume a remarkable degree of detachment from Ukrainian political and national issues.

5008 Martchenko, S. Simon Petlura: 50. Paris: Bibliographique ukrainienne Simon Petlura, 1976. 81 pp. A hagiographical account of Petliura's activities from 1917 to 1920, with a brief description of his exile and assassination.

Reviewing economic and political relations between Soviet Russia and Ukraine since the revolution, the author (who was President of the Ukrainian Republic in 1919) argues that `the Moscow of today is repeating the methods of the autocratic tsars'.

5016 Nahayewsky, I. History of the Modern Ukrainian State, 1917±1923. Munich: Ukrainian Free University, 1966. 317 pp. A popular, conservative, nationalist account, notable for the religious accent of some sections (notably the concluding chapter on spiritual life in the Ukrainian state), and its claim that the Rada `muffed its opportunity to establish statehood' as a consequence of too great a concentration upon social revolution. There are many factual errors in this volume, and the author is clearly most comfortable when discussing events on Western Ukrainian territory. Appended (pp. 251±308) are fifty-five documents from the period.

This article uses the story of the proto-Foreign Ministry of the Rada to illustrate the Kiev reÂgime's move toward the claim of sovereignty and as a focal point for a discussion of the Rada's policy on the minority peoples of the Ukraine, particularly the Jews.

5017 Ossoka, N. `LeÂnine, Trotsky et l'occupation de l'Ukraine', L'Est EuropeÂen No. 219 (July± September 1990), pp. 29±33. A brief discussion of communications between Lenin and Trotsky regarding the use of terror in Ukraine during 1919.

A detailed and quite well-informed account of political events in Ukraine from February 1917 to the formation of the USSR. The author calls for a compromise between Russia and Ukraine, favouring a relationship somewhere between subjugation and independence. 5014 Moskalenko, A. `The Hetmanate in 1918 and Bolshevik Aggression in the Ukraine', Ukrainian Review No. 11 (1964), pp. 81±84. This brief article consists of little more than a catalogue of Bolshevik breaches of trust and agreement during the Moscow±Kiev negotiations of the spring and summer of 1918.

In this piece the author explores the reasons for what he adjudges to be the fragmented, complex, and (from the point of view of elements outside the villages who were seeking to mobilize peasant support) unreliable responses of the Ukrainian peasantry to the events of the revolution and civil war. Three examples are focused upon: the peasant congress movement in Ukraine of 1917; the `Tarashchantsi' rebellion in Kiev province of 1918; and the Soviet attempt to sponsor collective farms in Poltava province in 1919.

Ukraine . 5028 Revolution. Edmonton/Toronto: Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies Press, 1995. viii + 391 pp. A narrative, chronological, diplomatic and military history of the attempts of Ukraine and Poland to present a united front against Soviet Russian aggression from 1919 to 1921, together with, as an introduction, two admiring biographical portraits of Symon Petliura and JoÂzef Piøsudski. The author argues that Poland `betrayed' its Ukrainian allies by signing the Treaty of Riga with Soviet Russia in March 1921, as the treaty ignored Ukrainian aspirations to independence recognized by the Polish± Ukrainian Treaty of Warsaw of April 1920. The volume includes an excellent bibliography.

1914±1917. Toronto: New Review Books, 1962. 125 pp. For a Soviet review of the work, see Shankowsky, L. `A Study of the Ukrainian Republic in the Great East-European Revolution', The New Review: A Journal of East-European History Vol. 7 (1967), No. 4 (29), pp. 47±54. 5024 Pigido, F. `Ukrainian±Jewish Relations during the Revolution (1917±1921)', Ukrainian Review No. 5 (1957), pp. 84±98. A concise summary of the Ukrainian national historiography which draws heavily on Margolin [4930] and a highly selective reading of Tcherikover [5304], whereby Pigido cites the latter's comments on the events of 1918, rather than those on the events of 1919. For the author, just as `the Russian people as a whole cannot be blamed for the crimes of Denikin's army', the `crimes of the demoralized elements of the Ukrainian army cannot be placed on the shoulders of the whole Ukrainian nation'.

5020 Paneyko, B. `The Conditions for Ukrainian Independence', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 2 (1923±1924), pp. 336±345. The author, a Ukrainian nationalist, argues that the origins of the movement for Ukrainian independence during and after the First World War are to be found in the international relations of that era.

5023 Pidhainy, O. S. The Formation of the Ukrainian Republic (pref. by M. Mladenovic). Toronto: New Review Books, 1966. 685 pp. A rather superficial and unscholarly treatment, focusing upon events in Ukraine from the February Revolution to the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. This work constitutes the first volume of a projected seven-volume series, entitled The Ukrainian Republic and the Great East European Revolution, which never materialized.

5029 . 23 National Minorities and Regional Affairs Polish±Soviet War, remains the best general study of the revolution in Ukraine ± and, indeed, one of the most important books on the revolution in general. The author's thesis is that `the failure of the Ukrainians to achieve permanent independent statehood during the upheaval caused by World War I was, in large measure, a result of the underdevelopment of the national movement'. The volume includes a valuable annotated bibliography of contemporary and historical publications. See also Reshetar, J.

A survey of the activity of and divisions within the Communist Party (bolshevik) of the Ukraine from its creation through 1919, which the author characterizes as an ultimately effective (if flawed) Trojan Horse, without which the pursuit of traditional Russian goals by Moscow would not have been possible.

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1977. pp. 186±219. Focusing upon the Fourth Universal's essential aspect, the Rada's declaration of Ukrainian independence (and comparing this to the federalist essence of the Third Universal), this article treats it as a document of social thought, placing it within the framework of Ukrainian intellectual history and the political circumstances of the time. The article also appears in Rudnytsky, I. L. Essays in Modern Ukrainian History. Edmonton: Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies, 1987. pp. 389±416.

This two-part article consists of some generalized comments on Ukrainian±Jewish relations: the first part dealing with the Second World War (when, apparently, no Ukrainian ever harmed a Jew); and the second part dealing with the years prior to 1917 and with the Stalin era (alleging that, while all tsars and all Bolsheviks alike were anti-Semitic, the Ukrainians, on the whole, were not).

The author was Foreign Minister of the Ukrainian republic in 1919.

A brief account of the Union, arguing (without the citation of evidence) that it was as a consequence of its actions that the Volhynian Regiment mutinied in Petrograd in February 1917. Also, according to the author, the Union `skilfully

A brief chronicle of relations between the Rada and Soviet Russia from October 1917 to November 1918. 5052 Toynbee, A. `The Ukraine: A Problem of Nationality', Nationalities Papers Vol. 4 (1976), No. 2, pp. 157±161. Originally published in 1915, this essay by the noted British historian argues for the transfer of Eastern Galicia to Russia after the war, on condition that the rights enjoyed by the Galicians under the Austrians be extended to all Ukrainians under Russian rule.

5047 Sullivant, R. S. Soviet Politics and the Ukraine, 1917±1957. New York: Columbia University Press, 1962. 438 pp. A broad survey by an American scholar, based largely upon published Soviet sources. The work is notable for the stress it lays, in the pre-1923 period, upon the conflict among various factions of the Soviet government.

A brief review of the constitutional principles of the Rada, as evidenced by its declarations, resolutions, Universals and laws, with particular regard to its attitude toward minority peoples of the Ukraine. The author regards the Rada's efforts as being commendable and advanced, but utopian given the circumstances of the period.

5048 Symon Petlura zum 100. Geburtstag. Munich: Ukrainische Freie UniversitaÈt, 1979. 48 pp. This pamphlet contains an introduction by H. Waskowycz, excerpts from a 1936 study by O. Lotockyj and a short biography by Taras Hunczak and one `R. M.' which is remarkable for the fact that it unambiguously identifies Schwartzbard as a `Bolshevik agent' who assassinated Petliura `ostensibly' as an act of revenge for the pogroms ± a conclusion which Hunczak has persistently denied wanting to draw or imply in what might be termed his more `respectable' publications.

A brief overview of the impact of the revolutions of 1917 upon all aspects of Ukrainian schooling and pedagogy.

5049 Takach, A. `In Search of Ukrainian National Identity: 1840±1921', Ethnic and Racial Studies Vol. 19 (1996), No. 3, pp. 640±659. Exploring the genesis and development of modern national identity in Ukraine during the period 1840 to 1921, and focusing on social-structural and circumstantial conditions, the author argues that, contrary to the claims of nationalist scholars, appeals to ethno-national sentiments throughout this period failed to generate a group identity and solidarity among the Ukrainian people.

5055 Weinstein, H. R. `Land Hunger and Nationalism in the Ukraine, 1905±1917', Journal of Economic History Vol. 2 (1942), No. 1, pp. 24±35. A brief but insightful examination of the Ukrainian peasantry's antagonism toward Russians, Poles and Jews, focusing upon the influence upon their outlook of their economic hardship.

A discussion of how the Soviet government of 1920 was able to establish and consolidate a reÂgime without arousing the hostility of Ukrainian peasants who were far removed from the urban, intellectual political philosophy of Bolshevism.

5056 W. M. `Ukrainian Political Life under Polish Rule in the 1920s', Ukrainian Review Vol. 9 (1962), No. 3, pp. 70±80. A brief essay, from the Ukrainian point of view, describing Polish discrimination against Ukrainians in Eastern Galicia and the parts of Volhynia and Polissa incorporated into post-war Poland, together with a description of the background to that incorporation of the years 1918 to 1921.

A largely unremarkable and unoriginal account (drawn from the author's University of London MA thesis), based upon the standard accounts by leading participants turned historians ± notably D. Doroshenko [4969]). The author's central thesis is that, with the establishment of the Hetmanate, `the wellto-do elements of the population began again, as in the times of Imperial Russia, to play an important part in the political life of the country'. Promised further parts of the work did not appear.

Eley argues that `it is important to acknowledge the essential normality of the Ukrainian experience'. 5061 Evain, E. Le ProbleÁme de l'indeÂpendance de l'Ukraine et la France. Paris: FeÂlix Alcan, 1931. 133 pp. An interesting discussion, which is sympathetic to the Ukrainian cause, by a French Deputy and member of the Foreign Affairs Select Committee. The volume also contains a number of documents and references concerning Ukrainian±French relations and their discussion in the French Assembly. 5062 Hunchak, T. `Sir Lewis Namier and the Struggle for Eastern Galicia, 1918±1920', Harvard Ukrainian Studies Vol. 1 (1977), No. 2, pp. 198±210. A well-documented study of Namier's championing of the cause of Galician Ukrainians in the struggle for domination of the region between Poland and the Western Ukrainian People's Republic.

5058 Yakymovych, B. `The Ukrainian Navy in 1917±1920', Ukrainian Review Vol. 40 (1993), No. 2, pp. 47±53. This brief survey of the attempts of the various reÂgimes in Kiev to bring the Black Sea Fleet under Ukrainian control is a classic example of the Ukrainian nationalist historiography's tendency to attempt to turn a series of what were, in fact, disparate and more apparent than real phenomena into a continuous and consistent narrative.

Soviet Foreign Policy, 1917±1991: A Retrospective. London: Frank Cass, 1994. pp. 45± 54. A brief overview of Rakovski's attempts to pursue an independent Ukrainian foreign policy in the period January 1919 to August 1923.

Paris: Les Editions Internationales, 1959. 326 pp. In this careful study, written from the historical and legal point of view, the author (an eminent Ukrainian nationalist) argues resolutely that, during the period in question, Soviet Ukraine was indeed an independent state and draws a precise picture of Ukraine's efforts to establish ties with neighbouring countries.

Aster (eds) Ukrainian±Jewish Relations in Historical Perspective. Edmonton: Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies, 1988. pp. 205±246. Despite the author's introductory protestations of his non-expertise in the field, this paper presents an extremely interesting attempt to map the overlapping territorial-political and social-revolutionary processes at work in Ukraine during the post-war period and to place them within the complex of the nationality- and class-based politics of the Russian± Ukrainian±Baltic borderlands, as well as the competing visions of the international system offered by Lenin, Wilson and advocates of the `old diplomacy'.

5065 Orzell, L. J. `A ``Hotly Disputed'' Issue: Eastern Galicia at the Paris Peace Conference, 1919', Polish Review Vol. 25 (1980), No. 1, pp. 49±68. Detailing Polish and Ukrainian claims and Allied deliberations on the subject, the author argues that the Allies' `misapplication' of the concept of selfdetermination and their contradictory policies and delaying tactics regarding the question of the future of Eastern Galicia, `failed to legitimize Polish control of an area necessary for the new state's security, thereby compelling the Poles to seek a solution by force'.

A well-written and informative analysis which draws upon a broad spectrum of printed sources, as well as Foreign Office documents, to illustrate the difficulties involved for Britain in establishing a consistent stance on the Ukrainian question ± largely, the author argues, as a consequence of the fact that the Ukrainians themselves `showed few signs of being able to found and defend a stance of their own'.

by R. Pipes). Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1977. pp. 352±381. A survey, based upon published and unpublished American documents, of the period March 1917 to July 1920. The author is critical of Wilson's `stubborn commitment to the preservation of the territorial integrity of the former Russian Empire', but, contrary to what has often been alleged by the exile community, finds `no evidence whatsoever of any Ukrainophobia on the part of any American official, private citizen or group'.

5067 Shumeyko, S. `American Interest in Ukraine during World War I, as Revealed in American Periodical Comments', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 2 (1945±1946), No. 1, pp. 66±79.

Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1988. 202 pp. This slim volume represents the only Englishlanguage monograph devoted to its neglected subject. Highly critical of Allied policy with regard to Ukraine and virulently anti-Russian, the Ukrainian nationalist author concludes that, in the circumstances, the terms of the treaty were `an impressive accomplishment' on the part of the inexperienced Rada delegation. Appended documents include the text of the treaty and its secret annex. See also Horak, S. M. `Aussenpolitische Auswirkungen des BrestLitowsker Friedens zwischen der Ukraine und den MittelmaÈchten', Ukraine in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart (Munich), Vol. 4 (1955), pp. 14±22; and Horak, S. `Der Friedensvertrag mit der Ukraine im Deutschen Reichstag', Ukraine in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart (Munich), Vol. 11 (1964), pp. 18±25.

Lord's Writings on the Paris Peace Conference of 1919', Annals of the Ukrainian Academy of Arts and Sciences in the United States Vol. 10 (1962±1963), No. 1 (29), pp. 65±84. Lord, a Harvard historian, served as `special advisor' on Russian and Poland on the Inquiry and as a member of the Russian and Polish divisions of the US delegation to the Paris Peace Conference in 1919. The author argues that `analysis of Lord's writings illustrates the pro-Polish policy' he pursued in those roles, at the expense of Ukraine (especially with regard to the East Galician problem).

London: Routledge & Kegan Paul, 1978. xii + 59 pp. Includes five letters written by the famous mystic during the months he spent in White-held Ekaterinodar in 1919 for publication in the British journal New Age. Full of inaccuracies and laced with antiBolshevik bile, the letters have little to offer in terms of information upon events in South Russia.

Edmonton: Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies Press, 1994, pp. 69±83. Utilizing the unpublished memoirs of Skoropadskyi (written in Berlin immediately after the fall of the Hetmanate), the author of this very interesting chapter argues that his reÂgime was rather more than the mere instrument of German militarism and imperialism, as which it has usually been portrayed.

5081 Petrunkevitch, I. `The Bolsheviks in the Crimea', Yale Review Vol. 10 (1920±1921), No. 1, pp. 57±71. Interesting recollections by the prominent Kadet (who, for health reasons, was living on his stepdaughter's estate near Yalta from 1915 onward) of events from the February Revolution to the German occupation of April 1918, including some commentary on the fates of those members of the royal family living in the region.

5077 Pidhainy, O. S. `Establishment of Relations between the Ukrainian Republic and the Central Powers', The New Review: A Journal of EastEuropean History Vol. 5 (1965), pp. 7±29. This extract from the author's projected work The Ukrainian Republic in the Great East-European Revolution (see [4886]) argues that, despite their support for the Union for the Liberation of the Ukraine and similar organizations, until late 1917 most German and Austrian politicians, generals and public figures were not interested in working for the establishment of an independent Ukrainian state or in annexationist policies in Ukraine. The article concludes with a survey of relations between the Rada and the Central Powers in the period October to December 1917, seeking thereby to demonstrate that `the Ukrainian Republic arose quite independently of any diplomacy of the Central Powers'.

5082 Raleigh, D. J. (ed.) A Civil War Diary: Alexis Babine in Saratov, 1917±1922. Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 1988. xxiv + 240 pp. The diary, exhaustively annotated by the editor (albeit with an unnecessary anti-communist colouring), records a university librarian and English teacher's personal impressions of increasingly desperate life in the Volga city over a five-year period. Its political content and comment is limited ± Babine hardly mentions the war, the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, or the Allied intervention ± and is vehemently antiBolshevik, although the author's outrage at the venality of the American Relief Administration officials in Saratov from 1920 to 1922 is of interest. 5083 Reissner, L.

socialist parties and anarchists in creating a relatively harmonious self-governing society on the island of Kotlin. The bulk of this remarkable work concentrates upon the period from the February Revolution to the summer of 1918 (a period during which, the author notes, the Kronstadters lived a life so independent of affairs in Petrograd that the October Revolution barely made a difference to them), but the narrative is extended to include the revolt of 1921, with regard to which the author demonstrates that the original nucleus of activists who had advocated maximalist solutions in 1917 survived the civil war years to inspire the rebellion of 1921. See also Getzler, I. `All Power to the Soviets: Maximalist Ideology and Kronstadt Practice', in E. Kamenka (ed.) Community as a Social Ideal. London: Edward Arnold, 1982. pp. 82±98.

5086 Figes, O. Peasant Russia, Civil War: The Volga Countryside in Revolution, 1917±1921. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1989. xix + 401 pp. An important work ± the author being among the first Western historians to gain access to Soviet archives on the revolutionary period. Figes skilfully explains how the transformations in the Russian countryside in the years before the revolution and in the years 1917 to 1918 made the Bolshevik victory in the civil war possible and provides a convincing explanation of how the socio-economic, cultural and institutional relations of the Volga villages were integrated into the Bolsheviks' state-building efforts. One chapter, in a slightly different form, appeared earlier as Figes, O. `The Village and Volost Soviet Elections of 1919', Soviet Studies Vol. 40 (1988), No. 1, pp. 21±46. For an extended commentary on the work, and a comparison with earlier studies of the peasantry, see Fitzpatrick, S. `The Problem of the Bolsheviks, ``Poor Peasants'' and the Village', Peasant Studies Vol. 17 (1990), pp. 261±278.

A brief discussion of the peculiarities of the course of revolutionary events in Archangel, Vologda and Olonets provinces from 1917 to 1920. The author argues that the `northern mentality' of `independence, free-thinking, a sense of mutual assistance, democratism, fearlessness and tranquillity' played a significant role. 5090 Hickey, M. C. `Urban Zemliachestva and Rural Revolution: Petrograd and the Smolensk Countryside in 1917', Soviet and Post-Soviet Review Vol. 23 (1996), No. 2, pp. 143±159. A discussion of the role of members of the zemliachestva ± `political missionaries' who `spoke peasant' ± noting the forms of organization of migrant workers in the capital and the manner in which their leaders `translated urban politics into the language of the village', thereby helping to move popular opinion to the Left during the autumn of 1917, while at the same time acting as conduits for the translation of peasant demands into the language of urban politics. The article is based upon Petrograd and Smolensk newspapers and materials from the state archives of Smolensk oblast'.

Iuzovka and Revolution, Vol. 2: Politics and Revolution in Russia's Donbass, 1869± 1924. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1994. xxi + 514 pp. The most comprehensive study yet published of labour relations in a Russian region, these two volumes are well written, extensively referenced and offer a wealth of detail and insight. While Friedgut tends to come down on the side of those who assume Russia to have been on a path of steady progress which was only cut short by the outbreak of war in 1914, his narrative is fascinating and often breathtaking.

Using Saratov as a case study, the author describes the Soviet government's attempts to create a unified and centralized bank of statistical information on the provinces, and finds that an element of continuity from the old reÂgime (in the persons of zemstvo statisticians) acted simultaneously as an accelerator and a brake in this process.

New York: St Martin's Press, 1988. xxi + 342 pp. A detailed study of the capital's experience of deurbanization, industrial collapse and Bolshevik politics, focusing upon the impact of all such factors on the party's efforts at state formation. The volume is based upon Western and Soviet archival research and numerous rare publications and newspapers.

This enterprising piece describes and examines the causes of the `unusually violent' collapse of the old reÂgime in the city of Tver and the first steps of the new governmental and soviet organs and makes comparisons with events in other Russian cities.

5094 Raleigh, D. J. Revolution on the Volga: 1917 in Saratov. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1986. 373 pp. This very valuable study of what the author deems to be a typical Russian provincial town, the SocialistRevolutionary stronghold of Saratov (and of its near neighbours, notably Tsaritsyn), and of its peasantdominated province, draws upon numerous local newspapers, memoirs and published documents. The author tries to show that the revolution was made (albeit with some delay) as much in the provinces as in the capitals, and that events in Saratov had their own dynamic and did not merely echo developments in Petrograd; the author argues that there was a certain historical inevitability to the Bolsheviks coming to power.

Utilizing Russian archival sources and other materials, the author examines instances of peasant resistance to Bolshevik rule in Novosibirsk guberniia (and Bolshevik responses to them) in the period after the defeat of the Whites. He finds that the breakdown in Bolshevik±peasant relations was precipitated by `excessive tax demands, premature attempts to create collective farms, a loss of Soviet-style democracy at village level and an elemental breakdown in reciprocity between state and peasant brought about by Siberia's prodrazverstka assessment for 1920±21'.

The author argues that the `political centrifugation' represented by Semenov's warlordism `shattered an already fragile anti-Bolshevik coalition and opened the way to the new Red order'.

Challenging the Western and Soviet conventions of presenting peasant rebellions as a negative phenomenon or as a variety of warlordism, this survey, based on a variety of published sources, concludes that the Siberian partisanshchina was symptomatic of deep-rooted peasant perceptions that `neither Reds nor Whites really cared about the interests, much less the wishes, of the common people'.

Bibliography 5157 Rupen, R. A. Mongols of the Twentieth Century, Part 2: Bibliography. Bloomington/The Hague: Indiana University Press/Mouton & Co., 1964. xii + 167 pp. Forming part of Rupen's study on the Mongols of the twentieth century [5176], this is not strictly speaking an independent bibliography and cannot, therefore, be expected to adhere to the corresponding standards. Although not annotated, it nevertheless offers a wealth of information, not least to the initiated who knows what he or she is looking for.

5162 Elleman, B. A. `Secret Sino-Soviet Negotiations on Outer Mongolia, 1918±1925', Pacific Affairs Vol. 66 (1993), No. 4, pp. 539±563. Utilizing previously inaccessible materials from Taiwan and the People's Republic of China, the author provides a detailed chronical of the negotiations which facilitated the eventual Soviet domination of Mongolia. The Soviets' use of secret diplomacy to this end, Elleman contends, is evidence that `the cold war was not a phenomenon which first appeared in Europe, but a Soviet creation which was consciously and substantially developed in the Far East during the 1920s'.

Memoirs and Other First-hand Accounts 5158 Bulstrode, B. A Tour in Mongolia (introd. by D. Fraser). London: Methuen, 1920. xix + 237 pp. A highly impressionistic account by an author for whom the fact that `history was being made for Mongolia' during her stay features primarily as an inconvenience forcing her to alter her route. The publishers were well-advised in adding `an introduction bearing on the political aspect of that country', but this does not make the account itself any more substantial.

Bloomington: Research Unit for Inner Asian Studies (Indiana University), 1980. vi + 300 pp. On the basis of Russian-, Mongolian- and Chinese-language sources made available since the 1960s, supplemented by rare accounts from the 1920s, the author finds that the roots of the 524

Mongolia . 5173 Mongolian revolution should be sought not in Moscow but in Mongolia itself ± in the social, political and intellectual legacy of the Bogd Khaan (Autonomous) period of 1911 to 1919 ± and that it was only with extreme reluctance that the Soviet government agreed to assist the exiled SuÈkhbaatar and Choibalsan to oust Ungern from Urga in February 1921. Unfortunately, poor editing detracts considerably from the merits of the book. The essentials of the work are presented in Ewing, T. E. `Russia, China and the Origins of the Mongolian People's Republic, 1918±1921: A Reappraisal', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 58 (1980), No. 3, pp. 399±421.

Drawing extensively upon a little-known memoir by Kh. Choibalsan, this detailed examination of Soviet±Mongol±Chinese relations in the years 1920 to 1921 seeks to establish that, far from being an early example of `Soviet expansionism', Bolshevik military-political intervention in Mongolia was essentially undertaken as a defensive measure (against the possibility of the country being used as the base of a Japanese-sponsored counter-revolution), and was undertaken very reluctantly, in view of the likelihood of the action antagonizing China.

Utilizing the `prism' of the nationalities question (with particular regard to the `small peoples' of the Far East ± the Koreans and the Buriat-Mongols), the author of this unique study seeks to demonstrate the complexity of interrelated problems confronting policy-makers in the FER as they sought to expel Japanese interventionists from Russian soil.

Utilizing published Soviet accounts and Japanese archival materials, the author of this narrative study, surveying events in the Transbaikal, Amur and Maritime provinces from the spring of 1917 to the summer of 1918 (but focusing on the Bolshevik seizure of power), concludes that the explanation of the party's victory is twofold: `the skill and determination of the [local] Bolshevik leaders' and the organizational weakness of the moderate socialists.

London: Allen & Unwin, 1923. 311 pp. A useful short history and survey (and the only book-length treatment of its important subject in English), although the author rather naively attributes the formation of the FER to the rejection of Bolshevism by the region's peasantry.

Reviewing the role of the Far Eastern Republic as a buffer between Soviet Russia and Japan, in the light of American±Japanese rivalries in North Asia and the Pacific, the author of this piece argues that the period represents `a notable instance of an early contact of political interests and a limited diplomatic rapprochement between the USA and Soviet Russia'.

The volume focuses strongly on regulations concerning the establishment of Jewish autonomy and self-administration and presents inferences by Jewish publicists dealing not with 1919 but with the earlier period (of 1917 to 1918), with which the main criticisms of the Directory were never concerned in the first place. In sum, the volume seeks to place the blame for the pogroms with every player on the Ukrainian stage but Petliura.

In this unremarkable piece, a brief survey of Bolshevik theory on the national question (which concludes that, for Lenin, the Jews were to be the vanguard of the complete integration of the peoples of Russia) is followed by surveys of the histories of the Commissariat for Jewish National Affairs, the Jewish Sections of the Communist Party and other Jewish national institutions.

A careful study, with wide-ranging references to Hebrew and Yiddish sources, describing the evolution of Jewish political representation in the Ukrainian governments against the background of the pogroms. Managing to combine elements of both the Ukrainian and Jewish national historiographies, the author emphasizes the isolation of the Jewish political leaders from the Jewish population as a whole and analyses the rift between Zionist and Jewish socialist parties. See also Abramson, H. `Historiography on the Jews and the Ukrainian Revolution', Journal of Ukrainian Studies Vol. 15 (1990), No. 2, pp. 33±45.

A rather shallow portrayal of the revolutionary period as a golden era of Jewish existence in Russia. 5259 Baron, S. W. The Russian Jew under Tsar and Soviets. London: Macmillan, 1976. xvii + 468 pp. A highly influential standard account by one of the leading proponents of the self-declared `nonlachrymose' stream in Jewish historiography.

5255 Abramson, H. A Prayer for the Government: Ukrainians and Jews in Revolutionary Times, 1917± 1920. Cambridge, MA: Ukrainian Research Center for Jewish Studies, Harvard University, 1999. 225 pp. Drawing on a wide range of archival and published sources and focusing on the partnership between Jewish political parties and organizations and the Ukrainian governments of the period, the author of this commendably balanced study seeks to explain why the Jews generally supported Ukrainian claims for autonomy. With regard to the pogroms, Abramson finds that Petliura was `in no way the architect' of the slaughter, but holds that, as head of state, he bears the ultimate responsibility for what

5262 Brun-Zejmis, J. `National Self-denial and Marxist Ideology: The Origin of the Communist Movement in Poland and the Jewish Question', Nationalities Papers Vol. 22 (1994), Supplement No. 1, pp. 29±54. A comparison of Marxist interpretations of the Jewish question with the practice of the Polish Communist Party during its early years. The author argues that for many Polish communists of Jewish background `their national self-denial played a far more important role' in attracting them to communism than did ideology or hatred of injustice.

5267 Feigenberg, R. `A Ukrainian Family', Menorah Journal Vol. 14 (1928), No. 2, pp. 202±207.

A consideration of the manner in which the religious leadership of Russian Jewry responded to the secularizing onslaught unleashed by the joint forces of Soviet persecution of Judaism and the emancipation of Russian Jewry after 1917. The chapter touches only briefly upon the years 1917 to 1921.

5263 Brym, R. J. The Jewish Intelligentsia and Russian Marxism: A Sociological Study. London: Macmillan, 1978. viii + 178 pp. An examination of the recruitment of Jewish intellectuals to the Bolshevik, Menshevik, Bundist and Poalei-Zionist parties in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With the aid of some two hundred biographies, the author seeks to demonstrate that those Jewish intelligenty most embedded in Russian culture gravitated toward the Bolsheviks, while those rooted in Jewish culture became attached to the Poalei-Zionists. For a critical review of the work by Richard Benkin see American Journal of Sociology Vol. 85 (1979±1980), No. 3, pp. 718±720; and the response by the author in American Journal of Sociology Vol. 86 (1980±1981), No. 2, pp. 385±387; and Benkin's reply in American Journal of Sociology Vol. 86 (1980±1981), No. 2, pp. 387±388.

Although the title of this contribution is slightly misleading, in that it in fact touches only briefly on the years before 1921, it is a well-referenced and helpful introductory survey. The author concludes that `the educational underground functioned with remarkable resourcefulness and resilience throughout the 1920s' but was ultimately `crushed, with great force and finality, by the anti-clerical campaign of 1930'.

5272 Friedman, S. S. Pogromchik: The Assassination of Simon Petliura. New York: Hart, 1976. xiv + 414 pp. This study of the notorious trial of Petliura's assassin, Sholom Schwartzbard, although marred by the author's unswerving hatred for Petliura, is indispensable for any student of the pogroms, drawing as it does upon a great number of contemporary sources, as well as upon the archives of Elias Tcherikover and the latter's monumental study of the Ukrainian pogroms [5304]. Unsurprisingly, this publication attracted the wrath of Ukrainian nationalists ± see for example Shankowsky, L. `Ukraine-hating as a Synthesis', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 43 (1987), Nos 1±2, pp. 64±99, which comments that `almost every page of Prof. Friedman's book feels the impact of its author's ignorance'.

Included here are the author's memoirs of the period 1897±1917, together with materials from the files of the Political Bureau of the Jewish deputies in the Fourth State Duma, of which the author was a member.

An anecdotal and highly impressionistic discussion which is chiefly of note for the author's assertion that the Soviet reÂgime was `battering out of the Russian Jews their one-time aversion toward physical labor' and for its fine illustrations.

Pittsburgh, PA: University of Pittsburgh Press, 1980. xiii + 121 pp. Utilizing a wide range of published sources, as well as materials from the YIVO archives, and aiming to demonstrate the theoretical foundations of Jewish national communism, the different tendencies within the movement and the conflicts between it and the Bolshevik authorities, the author here examines the attitude of the Bolshevik leadership to Jewish affairs, the aspirations of Jews working in the RKP(b) in Moscow, and developments in Ukraine and Belorussia.

A helpful introductory survey of recent debates, emphasizing both the need not to let sensationalist sketches or anti-Semitic polemics `obscure what are in a fact a range of legitimate scholarly questions' and the `multiplicity of responses' that found its expression in Jewish Socialism and Jewish participation in the revolutionary movement. 5287 Levin, N. Jews in the Soviet Union since 1917: Paradox of Survival, 2 vols. New York: New York University Press, 1988. 1013 pp. The first third of this imposing and important work analyses the Jewish experience of the revolutionary period, largely on the basis of an extensive trawl of Yiddish primary sources. The value of the work is enhanced by the inclusion of numerous statistical tables and many photographs.

5282 Hickey, M. C. `Revolution on the Jewish Street: Smolensk, 1917', Journal of Social History Vol. 31 (1998), No. 4, p. 823±850. Beginning with a survey of Jewish life in Smolensk before and during the war, the author of this broadly researched piece proceeds to examine the manner in which local leaders of Jewish socialist parties found themselves marginalized by the deepening class struggle in the town over the course of 1917, as Jewish workers sought increasingly radical solutions to their economic grievances and gravitated toward non-socialist Zionist organizations.

London: Cambridge University Press, 1970. xi + 180 pp. Focusing not upon the leaders of the Bund and Poalei Zion but upon their rank-and-file members, and utilizing an enormous quantity of bibliographical materials, in this volume the author provides a concise but detailed and thought-provoking account of the origins of the Jewish workers' movement. He concludes that it was doomed to sterility by conditions in late tsarist Russia.

Povolozky, 1921. 70 pp. An unreferenced general discussion, arguing that not a Bolshevik ascendancy following the defeat of the reactionary forces but only a genuinely democratic Russia would offer re-unity to Russian Jewry. 5294 Nedava, J.

S. `The Condition of the Russian Jews before and after the Revolution', in J. Bickerman (ed.) Ten Years of Bolshevik Domination. Berlin/Schoneberg: S. Scholem, 1928. pp. 145±173. A contemporary attack upon the Soviet government's failure to protect the well-being of the Jewish community, particularly with regard to economic affairs, arguing that Russia's Jews would happily return to the pre-revolutionary situation. 5296 Pavliuchenkov, S. `The Jewish Question in the Russian Revolution, or Concerning the Reasons for the Bolsheviks' Defeat in the Ukraine in 1919', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 10 (1997), No. 2, pp. 25± 36. Utilizing Russian archival holdings, the author of this provocative piece argues that Denikin's defeat of the Red Army in Ukraine during the summer of 1919 was to a significant degree a consequence of `the fact that . . . the Soviet and Party organs created there were wholly staffed by Jews' to whom the local peasant population were hostile (`the Judophobia of the Village').

Chazanovich) and the Soviet government relating to the attachment of a Jewish representative to the Soviet delegation in order to ensure that the national rights of the Jewish population in any areas detached from Russia should be upheld. Appended are a number of relevant documents.

5298 Schapiro, L. `The Role of the Jews in the Russian Revolutionary Movement', Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 40 (1961±1962), pp. 148±167. Although largely devoted to the period before 1905, this investigation of what made Jews so active in the revolutionary movement and of the relationship between the Bolsheviks and the Bund throws considerable light upon the events of 1917 and after.

5303 Spiro, G. `The Lenin-Caused ``Brest'' Pogroms', in Marxism and the Soviet State. New York: Red Star Press, 1951, pp. 801±814. The author claims that Lenin was aware that the Brest treaty would unleash a wave of violence against the Jews, whom many believed were responsible for Russia's plight, but the Bolshevik leader did nothing to safeguard against such acts. 5304 Tcherikover, E. Di Ukrayner pogromen in yor 1919. New York: Yiddisher Vinshaftekher Institut, 1965. 372 pp. Originally completed in the 1930s, this key work has never been translated into English, but see the following description and review of it: Schulman, E. `The Pogroms in the Ukraine in 1919', Jewish Quarterly Review Vol. 57 (1966), No. 2, pp. 159± 166. The author, a leading Jewish historian, essayist and journalist, based his study of how the Ukrainian independence movement degenerated into pogromism upon the rich archive of personal statements and recollections he had managed to take with him from Kiev to Germany in late 1920. The volume includes special chapters analysing the alleged anti-Semitism of Makhno and the Makhnovites. See also his earlier work, Tcherikower, E. Antisemitizm un pogromen in ukrayne, 1917±1918.

An explanation and defense of the work of Vladimir Jabotinsky, during the autumn of 1921, in negotiating a pact with the representative in Prague of Petliura's government, in an attempt to prevent a renewal of pogroms when Petliura's army, as was then planned, advanced from Eastern Galicia into Ukraine in the spring of 1922.

New York: Yoseloff, 1969. pp. 39±57. A mistitled piece, in that it deals with political representation rather than community life in any real sense, but nevertheless a very instructive and concise survey of the leading Jewish political parties of the time, their rivalries and disputes and their relations with the Rada, the Directory and the Bolsheviks.

The Russian-born author, who was Chief of the Slavonic Division of New York Public Library, draws upon a wide range of printed sources and the (then) unpublished reports of the `Joint' to discuss the historical background and cultural aspects as well as the issue of land colonization. He concludes, optimistically, that `the chief effect upon the Jewish people' of the revolution was to have `freed them not merely as individuals but as a group having the potentialities of nationhood'.

Couriss), 4 vols. n.p. : n.p., 1923. 446 + 392 + 359 + 356 pp. The complete version of the Cossack leader's memoirs. The first volume deals with the onset of war in 1914; the second, with the events of 1917 until the October Revolution; the third, with the civil war; and the fourth, with developments under the Bolsheviks. Often tediously chatty rather than vivid in style, the work borders on the quaint. See also Krasnoff, P. N. The Unforgiven (transl. by O. Vitali and V. Brooke; introd. by H. I. Brock).

An argument that the muting of political radicalism during the war years did not leave the Jews defenceless before gentile hostility, as Zionist and socialist historians have generally claimed. Rather, the community organized life around relief work.

A useful chronological survey of the history of the voisko from the February Revolution to the establishment of the Don Soviet Republic on 9 April 1918. The first section examines the Cossack congresses of 1917 and the emergence of self-government for the Don; the second emphasizes the role of generational differences (exemplified by the insurgent, pro-Bolshevik Kamenskaia Republic under Podtelkov) in the defeat of Ataman Kaledin.

5330 McNeal, R. H. Tsar and Cossack, 1855±1914. London: Macmillan, 1987. xvi + 262 pp. This detailed scholarly history of the relations between Russia's `martial estate' and the tsar, and of Cossack administrative history, must be counted as essential reading for anyone interested in the behaviour of the Cossacks in the revolutionary period.

5336 Vakar, N. P. A Bibliographic Guide to Bielorussia. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1956. xii + 63 pp. Contains 2,129 references to items (mostly in Russian, Belorussian and Polish) relating directly and indirectly to Belorussia, although the volume would serve admirably as a guide to materials on Poland. The volume's usefulness for the scholar is slightly impaired by numerous errors in titles and citations of authorship.

5331 Murphy, B. `The Don Rebellion, March±June 1919', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 6 (1993), No. 2, pp. 315±350. A detailed chronological survey of the Don Cossack rising against Soviet power in the spring of 1919. The author argues that the rebellion was caused by the Bolsheviks' use of indiscriminate terror against a caste which they regarded as irreconcilably hostile.

Utilizing information drawn from the 1897 and 1926 censuses, in the first part of this article the author discusses the socio-economic condition of the Belorussian people which influenced their susceptibility to nationalist agitation at the turn of the century.

5332 O'Rourke, S. Warriors and Peasants: The Don Cossacks in Late Imperial Russia. London: Macmillan, 2000. xiv + 200 pp. Although this original study of Cossack life and community focuses upon the half-century prior to 1914 (a period which the author regards as one of crisis, albeit not a terminal one, for the Cossacks), one of its major aims is to demonstrate that `Cossack behaviour in the [Revolution and] Civil War cannot be understood without understanding what they believed about themselves and their communities' in the late imperial period.

Surveying the history of the establishment of the Belorussian SSR down to the beginning of the 1920s, on the basis of numerous contemporary and early Soviet Russian and Belorussian publications, the author asserts that, contrary to accounts to be found in post-Second World War Soviet works, `the Bolsheviks decided to establish the Republic under the direct influence of the Belorussian national movement which they called anti-popular. If there had been no such movement there would have been no BSSR'.

5334 Starikov, S. and Medvedev, R. Philip Mironov and the Russian Civil War (transl. by G. Daniels). New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1978. xvi + 267 pp. An impressive trawl of Soviet archives provides the basis for this sympathetic portrait of the heroic leader of the Don Cossacks and devotee of the revolution, whose penchant for independent action led him eventually to fall foul of the Soviet authorities. Although the authors assert that his execution by the Cheka in 1921 must have been approved by some high officials in Moscow, they were unable to say who among the Bolshevik leadership gave the order. S. G. Starikov was a one-time associate of Mironov. 540

Denying that the Curzon Line represented the true ethnographic frontier between Poland, Belorussia and Ukraine, and arguing that it was in fact `a strictly political creation detrimental to the interests of the Belorussian people', the author provides a rare account from the Belorussian viewpoint of events affecting the border regions from the February Revolution to the Treaty of Riga.

5345 Bennigsen, A. A. and Wimbush, S. E. Muslim National Communism in the Soviet Union: A Revolutionary Strategy for the Colonial World. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1979. xxii + 267 pp. A rather poorly produced book on a neglected subject. The authors argue that those Moslem (chiefly Tatar) intellectuals who became communists did so not so much because of their attraction to the doctrine as because they found the movement appealing as an instrument of conspiracy and mass mobilization and because it promised outside help for their struggle. Included in the lengthy appendix to the volume are translations of speeches and articles by Sultan Galiev and other documents.

An account of the career of the Sultan Galiev during the period 1919 to 1923, together with an analysis of his revolutionary theories (which, claims the author, `represent the only attempt to define the revolutionary process in the colonial world'), and an assessment of why Moscow subsequently anathematized the Tatar leader and refused to follow his initiative in seeking to adapt communism to local conditions in the colonized lands.

5346 Blank, S. `The Struggle for Soviet Bashkiria, 1917±1923', Nationalities Papers Vol. 11 (1983), No. 1, pp. 1±26. Taking issue with Pipes [5352] on several points, the author carefully details the acrimonious conflicts over Bashkiria, both in the region and in Moscow, between Great Russian, Bashkir and Tatar communists, noting its typification of `the complex mosaic out of which Soviet nationality policy evolved' and its impact upon the development of Sultangalievism. 5347 Bucher-DincË, G.

Eine Untersuchung anhand autobiographischer und publizistischer Schriften des Wolgatataren Mirsaid Sultan-Galiev. Wiesbaden: Otto Harrassowitz, 1997. xi + 141 pp. This well-referenced scholarly study discusses Sultan Galiev's autobiographical and publicistic writings (which were unearthed in the early 1990s) as a response epitomizing a conflict that the author characterizes as a `specific Tatar±Russian antagonism', which she holds to have existed `throughout all the phases of Russian and Soviet history'.

An analysis of the genesis and contents of the first and only issue of the Muslim National Communists' Russian-language journal, Krasnoe znamia (Moscow, 22 July 1918), from which it emerges, concludes the author, that Sultan Galiev and Mulla-Nur Vahitov `did not have the slightest illusion as to the possibility of long-lasting co-operation with the new masters of 541

In this interesting essay the author argues that `Sultangaliev was determined to prevent an atheistic onslaught on Islam because perhaps he regarded cultural deracinations as the intellectual and emotional counterpart of economic enslavement'.

Emsdetten: Verlag Lechte, 1952. xxxix + 374 pp. Although strongly nationalistic in tone, this thorough and well-documented study of the development of Tatar nationalism and the fate of the Crimean Tatars during the civil war, by a Tatar eÂmigreÂ, remains useful ± not least for its exhaustive bibliography. The volume is based upon the personal reminiscences and correspondence of leading figures in the movement, private and governmental archives, newspapers and periodicals, and secondary sources.

Berlin: Weidmannsche Buchhandlung, 1936. iv + 196 pp. One chapter (pp. 120±149) of this solid general history of the Turkic peoples in Russia and the Soviet Union provides a well-informed and detailed picture of the political activities, leaders and organizations of Turkic groups from the Urals and Volga regions and from the Crimea from February 1917 through the civil war.

5356 Zenkovsky, S. A. `The Tataro-Bashkir Feud of 1917±1920', Indiana Slavic Studies Vol. 2 (1958), pp. 37±62. On the basis of published accounts and documents the author reviews the Bashkirs' struggle for autonomy and their resistance to Tatar hegemony during the revolution and civil war, and expresses regret that A. Z. Validov's `autonomism' helped to undermine the solidarity of Russia's Muslims, thereby facilitating the Russification of the divided Tatar and Bashkir region.

5352 Pipes, R. E. `The First Experiment in Soviet National Policy: The Bashkir Republic, 1917±1920', Russian Review Vol. 9 (1950), pp. 303±319. A case study (drawn from Pipes [535]) designed to highlight the importance of the national factor in the Russian civil war. The author claims that here, as elsewhere, the Party apparatus was employed `as a means of advancing the specific interests of the Russian population and suppressing the national aspirations of the minorities'. He comments also upon White nationalities policy with regard to the region. For a critique, see Carr, E. H. `Some Notes on Soviet Bashkiria', Soviet Studies Vol. 8 (1957), No. 3, pp. 217±235.

TuÈbingen: Stumpp, 1971. viii + 77 pp. An extensive but unannotated bibliography of (almost exclusively) German-language publications which is remarkable for its seamless treatment of those issued between 1933 and 1945. Certainly as far as its listing of articles in Nazi German `racial studies' periodicals as obscure as they are horrendous goes, this is the most comprehensive bibliography to date.

5381 Long, J. W. `The Volga Germans and the Famine of 1921', Russian Review Vol. 51 (1992), No. 4, pp. 510±525. Concluding that Bolshevik grain-requisitioning policies, rather than natural forces, were the main cause of the famine among the German settlers, the author surveys the course of the famine, examines its demographic and other impacts upon the German settlers, and traces their participation in the antiSoviet peasant risings of 1920 to 1921.

5376 Klassen, C. F. `The Mennonites of Russia, 1917±1928', Mennonite Quarterly Review Vol. 6 (1932), pp. 69±80.

This tracing of the Baltic nobles' evolution from loyal servants of the tsar in the nineteenth century to their support of the Kaiser in the First World War provides much useful background to their cooperation with the German forces occupying the Baltic provinces in the revolutionary period.

5377 Koch, F. C. The Volga Germans in Russia and the Americas from 1763 to the Present. University Park, PA: Pennsylvania State University Press, 1977. xvii + 365 pp. A dedicated labour of love, this general volume, written `by one of the people it concerns, a journalist who makes no pretensions to being a historian', is of little use for scholarly purposes. 544

Scottdale, PA: Herald Press, 1967. 262 pp. A generally scholarly account, although one steeped in sympathy for the Mennonite exiles. 5391 Toews, J. B. `The Origins and Activities of the Mennonite Selbstschutz in the Ukraine (1918±1919)', Mennonite Quarterly Review Vol. 46 (1972), pp. 5±40. Utilizing a range of rare sources the author of this piece explains the long- and short-term origins of the Selbstschutz (self-defence corps) organized in the Molotschna Mennonite settlement in Taurida, and discusses its operations from October 1918 to March 1919. The military activities of the force were negligible, but for its Mennonite constituency the Selbstschutz `represented a massive participation in armed violence unknown to a group whose loyalty to the peace principle had remained intact for 400 years'.

5392 Toews, J. B. `The Mennonites and the Siberian Frontier (1907±1930): Some Observations', Mennonite Quarterly Review Vol. 47 (1973), No. 2, pp. 83±101. This general survey of the Mennonite's experience in Siberia, which focuses in particular upon the community which settled on the Kulunda steppe, describes the suffering of the settlers in the years 1917 to 1923 and argues that `revolution and civil war rather than the frontier ultimately eroded the pillars upon which Mennonite ethnicity in Siberia was built'.

5396 van Meurs, W. P. The Bessarabian Question in Communist Historiography: Nationalist and Communist Politics and History Writing. Boulder, CO: East European Monographs, 1994. viii + 463 pp. Although the author's conceptualization of early Soviet historiography does not go beyond the conventional `Stalinization' paradigm, thereby making his discussion of the revolutionary period somewhat marginal and lacklustre, the volume does offer a wealth of data and references and what must be considered to be the most transparently presented synthesis of the basic facts of the Bessarabian question to date.

5405 Baerlein, H. Bessarabia and Beyond. London: Methuen, 1935. 278 pp. An amateurish survey of the Bessarabian question which is of little value to the modern historian. 5406 Boulder, A. V. La Bessarabie et les relations russo-roumaines. La Question bessarabienne et le droit international. Paris: J.

The Political Status of Bessarabia (introd. by J. B. Scott). Washington, DC: Randsell Inc., 1931. 290 pp. Although still valuable for its bibliography and three folding maps, this volume is otherwise of little utility as a consequence of its pronounced proRoumanian bias. The transformation of Bessarabia from a Russian to a Roumanian province is traced in some detail, but the author's avowed intention is to demonstrate that `the revolution of 1917 was seized upon by the Bessarabians as an opportunity to shake off the Russian yoke and to return to the mother country'.

This unusual piece includes extensive coverage of the status of Koreans under the Far Eastern Republic.

5411 Rakowski, K. G. Roumanie et Bessarabie. Paris: Librairie du Travail, 1925. 75 pp. A polemical study, by the eminent Balkan communist, which is of more interest to the student of Rakovski's thought than to the student of the Bessarabian question.

Honolulu: Center for Korean Studies, University of Hawaii, 1987. pp. 1±23. A well-documented introductory survey, focusing in particular upon the manner in which Japanese support for the White and Allied causes initially drove many Koreans into the arms of the Bolsheviks.

5412 Spector, S. D. Roumania at the Paris Peace Conference: A Study of the Diplomacy of Ioan C. Bratianu. New York: Bookman Associates, 1962. 368 pp. This informative book tells, in a commendably dispassionate manner and on the basis of materials available in the West, the story of the struggle waged at Paris by the Roumanian premier to have the Allies recognize his country's incorporation of Bessarabia and the Bukovina. It includes a careful analysis of Russo-Roumanian relations in the period 1914 to 1920.

G. Goikhbarg and P. S. Kogan), provides a fine portrait of the optimism, ebullience, eclecticism and buoyant naivety of Soviet thinking about culture and its future in the first years of the revolution.

The volume features many small black-and-white illustrations.

Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 1978. pp. 182±193 A critical appraisal of the decree of 14 April 1918 calling for the creation of monuments to revolutionary and popular heroes and of its failure, due to, the author suggests, the lack of sculptural talent in Russia and the absence of guidelines governing the creation of the monuments.

The volume also contains a substantial documentary appendix, assembling decrees and relevant memoranda, as well as a detailed bibliography and some seventy illustrations.

5430 Halfin, I. From Darkness to Light: Class, Consciousness, and Salvation in Revolutionary Russia. Pittburgh: University of Pittsburgh Press, 2000. 416 pp. A stimulating intellectual and cultural history of early Soviet attitudes to history, philosophy and literary theory, arguing that the Bolsheviks attempted to establish a classless society on the basis of a mixture of eschatological thinking and modern techniques of power ± notably in their efforts to construct a `new Soviet man' from a blending of aspects of the intellectual and the worker so as to eradicate all bourgeois traits.

5426 Ermolaev, H. Soviet Literary Theories, 1917± 1934. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1963. 261 pp. A solid scholarly account, illustrating the variety of critical viewpoints existing within Soviet Russia prior to the formulation of the socialist realist doctrine in 1934, including extensive treatment of the thought of Bogdanov. 5427 FuÈloÈp-Miller, R.

The author interprets the expulsion of writers and other artists in 1922 as both an act of retaliation and deterrence made against the backdrop of the famine and a need felt by the Bolshevik leadership to compensate concessions made with regard to the relief efforts with a harsh gesture towards potential and actual oppositionists.

5428 Gorzka, G. A. Bogdanov und der Russische Proletkult. Theorie und Praxis einer sozialistischen Kulturrevolution. Frankfurt/New York: Campus Verlag, 1980. 315 pp. An erudite (if, in parts, somewhat schematic) study which questions the often all too easily assumed identity of Bogdanov's thought, as reflected in his controversy with Lenin up to 1909, his theoretical concept of Proletkul't, and Proletkul't in action under the specific conditions of the period following October 1917. The differentiations Gorzka undertakes in this context allow for a reassessment which is valuable and instructive, whether or not one shares the author's ultimate judgment. The volume also includes a number of documents (pp. 259±273) and a detailed bibliography (pp. 274±315). See also Gorzka, G. `Proletarian Cultural Revolution: The Conception of Aleksandr A.

5438 Mally, L. Culture of the Future: The Proletkult Movement in Revolutionary Russia, 1917±1932. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1990. xxix + 306 pp. Attempting to move beyond the customary focus upon the Lenin±Bogdanov debate, in this impeccably researched volume the author utilizes materials from the Soviet archives to portray Proletkul't as an eclectic, diverse and `complicated social and cultural movement' and to demonstrate `the complex interactions between official pronouncements and their implementation'. The work concentrates on the period 1917 to 1922. See also Mally, L. `Intellectuals in the Proletkult', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G.

Washington, DC: Woodrow Wilson Center Press, 1995. pp. 247±264. An examination of the civil war and NEP periods, emphasizing the improvisational nature of Bolshevik cultural policy and noting that the considerable degree of cultural pluralism of these years was in part a consequence of the fact that `the Bolsheviks did not find such pluralism dangerous' and in part a consequence of Bolshevik weakness.

In this chapter the author argues that works produced in response to Lenin's plan were less uniform in conception and style than is usually assumed, that the plan was more utopian in its enunciation and realization than has previously been assumed, and that Tatlin's Monument to the Third International, not usually recognized as being part of the plan, was actually the project most illustrative of its utopian impulse.

The Bolsheviks in Russian Society: The Revolution and the Civil Wars. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1997. pp. 298±318. Arguing that `in understanding Bolshevism, we must make the cultural dimension central', the author explores aspects of the origins of the oneparty dictatorship in the Bolsheviks' visions of transformation of society.

5450 Sochor, Z. A. Revolution and Culture: The Bogdanov±Lenin Controversy. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1988. x + 258 pp. The author's thesis is that the conflicts between Lenin and Bogdanov (both between 1904 and 1909 and over Proletkul't in the period 1917 to 1921) had lasting consequences for the Bolshevik movement and for Russia, as it reinforced the authoritarian aspects of Lenin and Leninism.

A stimulating examination of the deteriorating relationship between the culturally conservative state authorities and the `left artists' (Futurists) in the years 1918 to 1920, as revealed in the self-justificatory report of president of the avant-garde's organizational centre ± the Art Board of Narkompros's Section of Plastic Arts.

heterogeneous and, quite simply, more interesting than this simple stereotype suggests'. 5467 Clark, K. Petersburg, Crucible of Cultural Revolution. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1995. xii + 377 pp. Concentrating on the years 1913 to 1931, the author's major concern in this well-documented (if rather poorly written) volume is to investigate the manner in which the city's still numerous intellectuals attempted to take an active role in the cultural revolution that they expected to follow 1917, but which arrived only after many complications and many years.

5463 Berthet, D. `Le futurisme russe et la reÂvolution', Revue d'estheÂtique Vol. 17 (1990), pp. 9±14.

The volume includes many black and white photographs. 5470 Erlich, V. `The Politics of Russian Futurism', Partisan Review Vol. 51 (1984), No. 3, pp. 442±446. Focusing mainly on Maiakovskii, Erlich explains that one's perspective on the politics of Futurism clearly depended, `to paraphrase a common saying, on what futurist newspapers you read'.

5465 Bowlt, J. E. and Matich, O. (eds) Laboratory of Dreams: The Russian Avant-garde and Cultural Experiment. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1996. xvii + 359 pp. This ambitious collection, resulting from a conference held in 1990, seeks to cover considerable ground and to question received wisdom, with particular regard to the issue of the continuities and discontinuities between the avant-garde and Socialist Realism in its Stalinist guise. The volume is hardly to be recommended as a first point of reference, but does include: Groys, B. `The Birth of Socialist Realism from the Spirit of the Russian Avant-garde' (pp. 193±218); and Zholkovsky, A. `Eisenstein's Poetics: Dialogical or Totalitarian?' (pp. 245±256).

Manchester: Manchester University Press, 1993. viii + 231 pp. The editors of this collection of articles argue that the distinction between a `revolutionary' phase of Soviet communism and the later, Stalinist phase which it `degenerated' into is inappropriate, adding that Soviet culture `was less monolithic, more

5479 Gray, C. The Great Experiment: Russian Art, 1863±1922. New York: Harry N. Abrams, 1962. 327 pp. This carefully documented, much republished and enduringly influential study concentrates upon Russian modernism in painting, sculpture, theatre design and architecture, with particular emphasis on the period after 1910. Biographical details of leading artists are included in the appendices and the volume contains a notable bibliography.

5474 Frame, M. `Theatre and Revolution: The Case of the Petrograd State Theatres', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 12 (1999), No. 1, pp. 84±102. An examination of the relations between theatres, the Provisional Government and the Bolsheviks in 1917, in which the author argues that both reÂgimes moved rapidly to assert their authority over the state theatres and that the artists, although generally demanding organizational autonomy, generally were supportive of such moves.

5481 Guerman, M. Art of the October Revolution (transl. by W. Freeman et al.). London: Collets, 1979. 240 pp. A handsomely illustrated work by a Soviet scholar which, after a brief introduction, presents examples of the extraordinary variety ± in terms of style and media ± of works produced by Soviet artists in the period 1917 to 1923 (including paintings, posters, sculpture, graphic art, festival designs, porcelain, postage stamps, stage sets, costumes, medals and agit-prop trains and boats).

5476 Geyer, D. `Arbeiterbewegung und ``Kulturrevolution'' in Russland', Vierteljahrshefte fuÈr Zeitgeschichte Vol. 10 (1962), No. 1, pp. 43±55. In this, his inaugural lecture at the University of TuÈbingen, Geyer posits rather than argues that the revolutionary cultural momentum unleashed by the revolutions of 1917 was soon subjugated to the needs of central planning and the goal of attaining the standards of bourgeois European culture (in terms of educational competence and technical know-how).

5482 Higgens, A. `Art and Politics in the Russian Revolution', Studio International Vol. 180, No. 927 (November 1970), pp. 164±167; No. 929 (December 1970), pp. 224±227. Part One of this article describes the philosophy of Futurism before, during and after the revolution; Part Two outlines the philosophical materialism of Lenin and Trotsky and the way in which this influenced their attitudes to contemporary artists and the artists' theories about art and political action.

5477 Gibian, G. and Tjalsma, H. W. (eds) Russian Modernism: Culture and the Avant Garde, 1900±1930. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1976. 239 pp. A collection of nine articles ± seven on literature and one each on art and architecture ± addressing themselves to a variety of questions relating to Russian modernism. 5478 A. Gleason, P. Kenez and R. Stites (eds) Bolshevik Culture: Experiment and Order in the Russian Revolution. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1985. xiii + 304 pp. A useful collection of sixteen wide-ranging and diverse essays, rich in factual information and generally drawing a picture of the gulf separating Bolshevik utopianism and the practical realities of cultural life. The essays are listed and annotated separately in this bibliography.

5483 Ilnytzkyj, O. S. Ukrainian Futurism, 1914± 1930: A Historical and Critical Study. Cambridge, MA: Harvard Ukrainian Research Institution, 1995. xvii + 413 pp. The `primary task' the author sets himself in this extensively referenced study is `to allow Ukrainian Futurism to define itself'. Its general conclusion notwithstanding (that alongside the vanguard `so celebrated in the heart of the empire' there existed in Ukraine `a separate and parallel avant-garde which 554

Art and Culture in Revolution (General) . 5493 consistently guarded its national distinctiveness'), Ilnytzkyj concedes that `Ukrainian polite society immediately dubbed Futurism a foreign intrusion and proceeded to purge it from the national cultural system'. The author admits also that the Ukrainian movement's modest pre-revolutionary achievements do not allow for a serious comparison with Russian Futurism until the early 1920s.

Magomedov, M. A. Nemirovskaia, P. Nisbet and others. 5488 MarcadeÂ, J.-Cl. Le Futurisme russe, 1907± 1917: aux sources de l'art du XXe sieÁcle. Paris: Dessain & Tulra, 1989. 112 pp. A concise and clear analysis of the origins and nature of Futurism, including many superb colour reproductions of key Futurist artworks. Appended are a chronology, brief biographies of leading Futurists and a very good bibliography.

5484 Karlinsky, S. `Russia's Gay Literature and Culture: The Impact of the October Revolution', in M. B. Duberman, M. Vicinus and G. Chauncey Jr (eds) Hidden from History: Reclaiming the Gay and Lesbian Past. London: Penguin, 1990. pp. 347±364. In this piece, which somewhat sketchily synthesizes a number of printed sources, the author argues that, their willingness to decriminalize homosexuality notwithstanding, the Bolsheviks substantially restricted the gay literary culture that had emerged between 1905 and 1917, partly as a result of the class background of a number of prominent gay authors but perhaps more importantly because they continued to view homosexuality as a type of mental illness. In this light, the author concludes, the Stalinist crackdown of the 1930s represents an escalation of the policies of the earlier period, not a radical discontinuity.

5489 Markov, V. Russian Futurism: A History. London: MacGibbon & Kee, 1969. xi + 467 pp. Utilizing virtually every publication of the Russian Futurists, the author of this still impressive pioneering study, the first devoted to its subject in any language, traces the history of the movement from its origins in Impressionism through to its decline in the post-revolutionary period. Included in the volume are some rare photographs of Futurist personalities, reproductions of Futurist art and sample pages from various almanacs and collections. 5490 Milner, J. Russian Revolutionary Art. London: Oresko, 1979. 96 pp. An excellently illustrated but badly made and rambling general survey, which exhibits a heavy bias toward the works of Tatlin.

5485 Kelly, C. and Shepherd, D. (eds) Constructing Russian Culture in the Age of Revolution, 1881±1940. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1998. xiii + 358 pp. `In the interests of narrative and thematic and thematic coherence', note the editors of this most unconventional book, materials submitted by the contributors to this volume `has in most cases been combined, often with greater than usual editorial intervention, to form lengthy chapters'. The last third of the volume deals with post-revolutionary developments. Contributors (or rather, perhaps, `subsumees') include Linda Edmondson, Maureen Perrie and Steve Smith.

5491 Milner, J. Vladimir Tatlin and the Russian Avant-garde. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1983. vii + 252 pp. A lavishly illustrated biography which is actually better at discussing individual works of art than in conveying the social, political and cultural milieu in which Tatlin and his contemporaries worked. The volume also covers the activities of Tatlin's associates ± Khlebnikov, Larionov, Goncharova, Malevich, Maiakovskii and Rodchenko ± as well as the efforts of Lunacharskii to marry their efforts to the cause of Bolshevism after 1917.

5486 Kleberg, L. and Nilsson, N. AÊ. (eds) Theatre and Literature in Russia, 1900±1930. Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell International, 1984. 123 pp. A collection of eight brief essays by Swedish, German and French scholars on a variety of aspects of cultural and artistic developments during the revolutionary period.

5492 Milner, J. Kazimir Malevich and the Art of Geometry. New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1996. x + 237 pp. A finely illustrated and well-referenced study, to be highly recommended as an introduction to the life and work of the founder of Suprematism. 5493 Mount, C.

5494 . 24 Art, Science, Culture, Education and Religion 5494 Nilsson, N. AÊ. (ed.) Art, Society, Revolution: Russia, 1917±21. Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell International, 1979. 271 pp. A pioneering collection of eight diverse articles, most of them based upon a little-explored collection of contemporary newspapers and leaflets deposited at the University library in Uppsala by Torsten Lundell (who served with the Swedish legation in Petrograd and later with the Swedish Red Cross in Siberia during the revolutionary period). Unfortunately, an editorial decision appears to have been taken not to translate any of the extensive quotations from the newspapers incorporated into the articles. On the Uppsala collection, see Kjellberg, L. `The Collection of Prints from the Russian Revolution in the Uppsala University Library', in Otium et Negotium.

contacts among members of the Russian avant-garde and their contemporaries in the West from 1910 to 1930'. The contributions are generally well-referenced and offer good selected bibliographies. 5499 Russell, R. `The Arts and the Russian Civil War', Journal of European Studies Vol. 20 (1990), No. 79, pp. 219±240. Ranging across the Bolsheviks' use of film, theatre, posters and mass spectacles, in this stimulating essay the author argues that during the civil-war years `a specific set of aesthetic principles evolved' among Soviet artists `which enable us to speak of the art of the civil war as a movement'. However, for Russell, that movement was not homogeneous and its fundamental feature was `the tension between the heroic and the satirical, between the monumental and the dynamic, between socialism triumphant and socialism in struggle', as a consequence of the contradiction between the desire to celebrate the birth of the first Soviet state and the self-evident need for further struggle to secure its future.

5495 Poliakoff, V. `Destroying Culture in Russia', Nineteenth Century No. 88 (1920), pp. 209±216. A hefty polemic which, while admitting to the problems caused by the civil war, enlists all manner of evidence to support the author's contention that the Bolsheviks were neither genuinely inclined toward, nor capable of delivering, sound policies in the fields of culture and education.

5500 SchloÈgel, K. Jenseits des Grossen Oktober. Das Laboratorium der Moderne Petersburg 1909±1921. Berlin: Siedler, 1988. 542 pp. An overambitious study which, for all its interesting ideas and references, borders on the verbose while drawing upon cultural studies jargon ± which is all the more irritating insofar as the book's central thesis is avowedly predicated on a sort of `Indian Summer' of peaceful coexistence which was to become completely obsolete within a year of its publication.

5496 Polovtsoff, A. Les TreÂsors d'art en Russie sous le reÂgime bolcheviste. Paris: SocieÂteÂ FrancËaise d'Imprimerie de Librairie, 1919. 295 pp. The author was a Russian Foreign Office official who left the country in 1918. The work provides some useful and quite knowledgeable insights into events prior to the time of his departure.

5497 Read, C. `The Cultural Intelligentsia', in R. Service (ed.) Society and Politics in the Russian Revolution. London: Macmillan, 1992. pp. 86±102. Arguing from the position that `in 1917 the intelligentsia did nothing in particular and did it very well', as it became `preoccupied with its own life and its own world', the author seeks to demonstrate that educational life, artistic life and high culture `show continuity with the past rather than a radical break in 1917' before elaborating the changes which (eventually) occurred subsequent to the October Revolution. The piece concludes with a brief account of the post-October career of Marc Chagall.

5504 Stites, R. Revolutionary Dreams: Utopian Vision and Experimental Life in the Russian Revolution. London: Oxford University Press, 1989. xii + 307 pp. A unique, fascinating and imaginative study of the dreams and aspirations awakened in Russians of all social types by the revolution, ranging in its subject matter from the naming of babies to science fiction novels, via urbanism, work practices, public festivals, clothing, speech, language and atheism, among much else. The author concludes that `the Russian Revolution took on its main spiritual, mental and expressive forms from the collision and collusion of the major utopian traditions in Russian history: those of the people, those of the state and those of the radical intelligentsia'. See also Stites, R. `Utopias in the Air and on the Ground: Futuristic Dreams in the Russian Revolution', Russian History Vol. 11 (1984), Nos 2±3, pp. 236±257; and Stites, R. `Utopias of Time, Space, and Life in the Russian Revolution', Revue des eÂtudes slaves Vol. 56 (1984), No. 1, pp. 141±154.

5507 Williams, R. C. Artists in Revolution: Portraits of the Russian Avant-garde, 1905±1925. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1977. x + 242 pp. In this volume the author explores the `intersection of innovative and revolutionary art' in revolutionary Russia through a series of biographical studies of outstanding figures in the art world, including A. Lunacharskii, M. Dobuzhinskii, D. Moor, Vs. Meyerhold, K. Malevich, Vl. Maiakovskii, Vl. Tatlin and S. Eisenstein. POLITICAL SYMBOLISM AND PROPAGANDA 5508 Amey, C. et al.

Lausanne: La CiteÂ/L'Age d'Homme, 1977. 169 pp. Volume 1 of this excellent collection contains seven essays of an introductory and narrative nature, addressing various aspects of early Soviet agitational and propagandistic art. Well-referenced, the volume provides a good introduction to the subject. Volume 2 assembles both theoretical expositions and pieces that emerged from the agit-prop movement (many of them, until the publication of this volume, very difficult to access).

5505 Stites, R. Russian Popular Culture: Entertainment and Society since 1900. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992. 269 pp. An unusual discussion of developments in a much neglected area, including, in the words of the author, `pulp fiction, mass graphics, the variety stage, radio, television, popular songs, dances and the movies', with some considerable coverage of the revolutionary period and its impact. See also von Geldern J. and Stites, R. (eds) Mass Culture in Soviet Russia: Tales, Poems, Songs, Movies, Plays and Folklore. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1995. xxxxviii + 496 pp., in the first section of which are collected early revolutionary tales and songs, the Red Army oath of induction, cabaret skits and film extracts, etc. dealing with the revolutionary period. The volume is accompanied by an audio cassette of performances.

5509 Argenbright, R. `The Soviet Agitational Vehicle: State Power on the Social Frontier', Political Geography Vol. 17 (1998), No. 3, pp. 253±272. Pulling together an impressive range of printed sources, the author argues that the agitational vehicle's potential remained largely unrealized, and interprets the `abandonment of the innovation, before its potential contributions had been exhausted, as an indication that authoritarian principles of socio-spatial control were solidifying' within the reÂgime's overall consolidation. In sum, for Argenbright, `due to ideological predispositions and structural circumstances', the Bolsheviks `failed to appreciate the importance of the agitational vehicle as a seed-bed for citizenship'.

5506 Taylor, B. Art and Literature under the Bolsheviks, Vol. 1: The Crisis of Renewal, 1917± 1924. London: Pluto Press, 1991. xvii + 220 pp. A nicely illustrated, readable and erudite study, designed to counter the assumption that `the history of the art of this period is well nigh indistinguishable from the history of the political party that nurtured and cajoled it'. The author seeks to topple `the myth that the ``revolutionary'' art and the revolutionary politics of the Bolshevik period are in all essentials the same thing' ± a myth the author believes the

Satirische Plakate 1918±1922. Berlin: Eulenspiegel, 1977. 127 pp. Following a brief introduction by the author (pp. 5±14), there are reproduced in this folio one hundred examples (half of them in colour) of Soviet posters from the revolutionary period (most of them well known), together with annotations giving technical information and translations (into German) of the Russian texts.

W. `Religious Aspects of Monumental Propaganda in 1918', Canadian±American Slavic Studies Vol. 26 (1992), Nos 1±3, pp. 29±62. In this nicely illustrated piece the author explores the extent to which the large painted panels adorning streets during the celebrations of May Day and the anniversary of the October Revolution contained religious style, form or content, as artists attempted to `use religious images or symbols as a bridge from the pre-revolutionary past to the socialist world of the future'. Edwards also contrasts the views of Lenin and Lunacharskii on the role of culture.

5517 Reeder, R. `The Interrelationship of Codes in Maiakovskii's ROSTA Posters', Soviet Union/Union SovieÂtique Vol. 7 (1980), No. 1, pp. 28±52. An extensive examination of the elements making up the visual and written codes of Maiakovskii's posters of the civil-war period. The author, who focuses upon a few representative examples of the posters (which are reproduced), attempts to isolate the elements of the codes, and explains their interrelationship and purposes with regard to the message of the posters.

5513 Figes, O. and Kolonitskii, B. Interpreting the Russian Revolution: Language and Symbols in 1917. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1999. 198 pp. A path-breaking analysis of the political culture of 1917 through the dissection of its semiotics, this original volume examines the diverse manners in which language and other symbols (flags, emblems, badges, banners, codes of dress, popular songs, statuary, place names and public rituals) were used to define and to codify the competing sides in the political struggle.

5518 Russell, R. `An English Influence on Russian Revolutionary Festivals', Theatre Notebook Vol. 40 (1986), No. 3, pp. 115±123. Picking up on the fact that Platon Kerzhentsev (Lebedev) saw the 1914 Hampstead Garden Suburb pageant on the theme of St George and the Dragon, the author of this piece constructs a rather strained argument for a `direct influence' of that pageant on revolutionary festivals in Soviet Russia. 5519 Stites, R. `The Origins of the Soviet Ritual Style: Symbol and Festival in the Russian Revolution', in C. Arvidsson and L. E. Blomqvist (eds) Symbols and Power: The Esthetics of Political Legitimation in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell, 1987. pp. 23±42. In this highly original and insightful piece the author describes and analyses the origins of the Provisional Government and Soviet/Bolshevik ritual style (in festivals, internments, street decorations, monuments, symbols, flags and songs) from February 1917 to November 1918, in addition to tracing their roots in European and Russian traditions and evaluating their impact at the time. Stites is at pains to draw the reader's attention to how `the variety, tentativeness, experimentalism, and carnival aspect' of the earliest revolutionary celebrations gave way to a more ritualized and uniform style.

Berkeley: University of California Press, 1993. xiv + 316 pp. An unusual discussion of mass spectacles and their impact upon the memory and experience of revolution. The author argues that festivals were of vital importance to the Bolsheviks because of their mythologizing and legitimizing effect.

London: Thames and Hudson, 1990. 240 pp. This lavishly illustrated volume, including a chapter of one hundred pages on the years 1918 and 1919, consists for the most part of cleverly chosen documents (including sketches and plans) drawn from the personal archives of artists involved in the design of public festivals, newspaper reports, and minutes from the festivals' organizational committees.

New Haven: Yale University Press, 1988. vii + 152 pp. A lavishly illustrated thoughtful consideration of the conditions in which political posters were produced in the years 1918 to 1921, together with analyses of their content and their impact, drawing upon many unfamiliar sources from Soviet archives and libraries and the not inconsiderable collections in the West.

Although primarily devoted to the NEP years, this article, in which the author seeks to challenge the assumptions that Soviet newspapers carried nothing but propaganda and that journalists were unadulterated propagandists, includes some detail on the first Soviet attempts to train journalists during the civil war. 5527 Nossowa, G. and Hanebutt-Benze, E.

An attempt to relate the `Decree on the Reorganization and Centralization of Archival Affairs of the RSFSR' of 1 June 1918 to the society and ideology from which it emerged, and to compare the centralizing and nationalizing provisions of the decree (the text of which is reproduced in full) to other countries and to the pre-revolutionary Russian heritage.

Seattle: University of Washington Press, 1999. xv + 214 pp. This somewhat misleadingly entitled but finely illustrated volume examines the history of avantgarde constructivist children's book illustration in the 1920s. According to the author, the `great artisticaesthetic experiment of the 1920s . . . found perhaps its fullest, most clearly articulated expression in the art of illustrating and designing children's books', although the artists' ambitions were ultimately frustrated by the Soviet state.

5536 `Lenin on Libraries', Library Journal Vol. 89 (1 November 1964), pp. 12±14. A review of Lenin's assessments of various European libraries and of his work to improve library provision in Soviet Russia, especially with regard to the Petrograd Public Library. 5537 Main, S.

The focus of this article is the examination of the main trends in the development of the Red Army's library system during the period 1918 to 1920. Main outlines the interrelationship, as well as the independence, of the work of the Red Army's local political and cultural-educational apparatus from that of the centre (the All-Russian Bureau of Military Commissars and the Political Administration of the Revolutionary Military Soviet of the Republic) and argues that the work of the Red Army's library system was geared to improving the political consciousness of the soldiers, as well as to improving their cultural awareness, and that libraries were as much a part of the Red Army's political apparatus as were its political departments.

Drawing upon a wide range of printed sources, the author of this fascinating and detailed piece reconstructs the tense relationship between the two leading Russian libraries and the Soviet government during the civil-war years and the decision of the Bolshevik leadership, following Lenin's death, to elevate the Rumiantsev Library in Moscow rather than the even more renowned Public Library in Petrograd (which, in 1918, was surpassed in size only by the British Library and the BibliotheÁque Nationale) to the status of the V. I. Lenin State Public Library.

Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1975. xiv + 245 pp. Although marred by poor production and editing (the volume is an unrevised version of the author's PhD thesis, reproduced by photo-offset), this closely argued work presents a most valuable analysis of about a dozen poems dealing with themes of war and revolution. Broyde's aim was to demolish the myth that Mandelshtam was indifferent to social developments.

Helsinki: Institute for Russian and East European Studies, 1995. 421 pp. Through a meticulous reading of the primary materials (including many unusual items from ephemeral publications) the author traces the diverse and mutable reactions of Belyi, Blok, Hippius, Merezhkovskii, et al. to the First World War and the revolutions of 1917.

Giessen: Wilhelm Schmitz Verlag, 1980. viii + 144 + viii + 323 pp. In the first of these volumes Markov supplies a detailed, sympathetic but objective survey of the activities of the Imagist (or Imaginist) literary group (from the issue of its manifesto in 1919 to the group's dissolution in 1924, following Esenin's withdrawal), paying particular attention to the members' literary creations (notably the poema, or longer poem). Volume II constitutes an anthology of Imagist texts, excluding the familiar and frequently republished works of Esenin.

Nottingham: Astra Press, 1996. xii + 127 pp. Included in this volume are seven essays on aspects of the post-revolutionary work of Gorky, Pil'niak, Olesha, Artsybashev, Zoshchenko and Grin. 5564 Luckyj, G. S. N. Literary Politics in the Soviet Ukraine, 1917±1934. New York: Columbia University Press, 1956. x + 323 pp. The value of this study of historical, social and political influences upon Ukrainian literature in the early Soviet period is greatly enhanced by its careful documentation, its documentary appendix and its lengthy bibliography. Of particular interest is the chapter entitled `The Revolution of 1917 in the Ukraine'.

5569 Mirsky, Prince D. S. Contemporary Russian Literature, 1881±1925. London: Routledge, 1926. 372 pp. Although this early study is now somewhat dated, it includes a good bibliography of post-revolutionary works. 5570 Nilsson, N. AÊ. `Spring 1918. The Arts and the Commissars', in N. AÊ. Nilsson (ed.) Art, Society, Revolution: Russia, 1917±1921. Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell International, 1979. pp. 9±53. A study of the debates between different literary groups and the changes taking place in theatre, art and literature as a consequence of the immediate impact on the arts of the October Revolution, alluding to the political ramifications of the Bolsheviks' cultural policy. The piece is based largely upon contemporary newspaper and periodical publications

5565 McVay, G. Esenin: A Life. Ann Arbor, MI: Ardis, 1976. 352 pp. An objective, exhaustively detailed and impeccably researched guide to Western and Soviet scholarship on Esenin's life. With regard to the poet's works of the revolutionary period and his attitude to the new Bolshevik reÂgime, McVay's conclusion is that `Esenin's poetry of this period is generally too vague to deduce any political stance'.

5571 Nilsson, N. AÊ. `Mandel'sÏ tam and the Revolution', in N. AÊ. Nilsson (ed.) Art, Society, Revolution: Russia, 1917±1921. Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksell International, 1979. pp. 165±178.

5566 Maguire, A. Red Virgin Soil: Soviet Literature in the 1920s. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1968. xv + 482 pp. Largely a history of Krasnaia nov', the pioneer Soviet tolstyi zhurnal, founded in 1921 with the support of Lenin and Krupskaia, this carefully researched and well-documented volume includes not only some stimulating critical appreciations of the works by Pil'niak, Babel, etc. which were published in the journal, but also some interesting excursions into the early history, economics and statistics of book production in Soviet Russia.

5574 . 24 Art, Science, Culture, Education and Religion A rehabilitatory study of the `compositional sophistication' of Maiakovskii's 1924 eulogy, Vladimir Il'ich Lenin, which the author describes as `the single most translated of all Maiakovskii's works and surely the most ballyhooed product of Soviet Russia's poet laureate'.

5578 Stapanian, J. R. Mayakovsky's Cubo-Futurist Vision. Houston, TX: Rice University Press, 1986. xiv + 225 pp. The author of this well-referenced work offers an interesting perspective on Maiakovskii's early poetry and the `intricate symbiotics among the Russian arts of the period'.

Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1980. xvi + 359 + viii + 421 pp. The second volume of this excellent biography ± the first full-length study in English ± deals with the poet's life from 1908 to 1921, focusing upon the personal doubts and difficulties which inspired his classic poem `The Twelve'.

The volume remains useful for its excellent bibliography. 5580 Struve, G. `The Transition from Russian to Soviet Literature', in M. Hayward and L. Labedz (eds) Literature and Revolution in Soviet Russia, 1917±1962: A Symposium. London: Oxford University Press, 1963. pp. 1±27. An exceptionally useful introduction to the subject, examining literary developments in the years 1917 to 1923 and the factors which determined them.

5575 Pyman, A. `Russian Poetry and the October Revolution', Revolutionary Russia Vol. 3 (1990), No. 1, pp. 5±54. In this piece the author attempts a conceptual approach to poetry and politics in relation to the artists' immediate poetic response to the October Revolution, arguing that the poets, whatever their school, had much in common as twentieth-century artists in their renewal of language and technique, in their handling of time and space, and their reconsideration of the artist's role in society and within the text, as well as in their recurrent imagery. The featured poets include Blok, Maiakovskii, Khlebnikov, Pasternak, Esenin, Tsvetaeva, Gippius, Mandelshtam and Akhmatova.

5581 Thomson, B. The Premature Revolution: Russian Literature and Society, 1917±1946. London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 1972, 325 pp. In this interesting if somewhat idiosyncratic work, in which literary analysis takes second place to history, chapters on individual writers (including Zamiatin, Blok, Maiakovskii and Gorky) are interspersed with chapters on the cultural, intellectual and social backgrounds against which they operated.

5576 Rosenthal, B. G. Dmitri Sergeevich Merezhkovsky and the Silver Age: The Development of a Revolutionary Mentality. The Hague: Martinus Nijhoff, 1975. 248 pp. A commendable account of the career and influence of Merezhkovskii, in which the author argues that the aesthetic trends of Russia's Silver Age contributed to the development of a `revolutionary mentality' in the decades prior to 1917, thereby furthering the cause of the political Left (to which Merezhkovskii himself was profoundly opposed). See also Rosenthal, B. G. `Eschatology and the Appeal of Revolution: Merezhkovsky, Bely, Blok', California Slavic Studies Vol. 11 (1980), pp. 105±139.

Francke Verlag, 1993. vii + 257 pp. A well-referenced scholarly study which focuses in particular upon Maiakovskii's interactions with and responses to Malevich, Tatlin and Picasso. 5583 Warner, E. `The Russian Folk Tale after the Revolution', Scandinavian Yearbook of Folklore Vol. 36 (1980), pp. 133±141. A very general survey predicated on the assumption that `a characteristic of the Russian folk-tale has always been its readiness to respond', allowing its vocabulary, characters and themes to evolve according to the patterns of the time.

5577 Scherr, B. `Notes on Literary Life in Petrograd, 1918±1922: A Tale of Three Houses', Slavic Review Vol. 36 (1977), No. 2, pp. 256±267.

5584 Woroszylski, W. The Life of Mayakovsky (transl. by B. Taborski). New York: Orion Press, 1970. xi + 562 pp. This biography is, in fact, a fascinating documentary montage; or, as the author himself puts it, `a factographic story, constituted on the lines of a documentary film'. Originally published in Polish in 564

Theatre . 5593 1966, a stage version (`Maiakovskii is Dead') was also produced in Warsaw in 1967. Although the individual excerpts assembled to form the book are not footnoted in detail, the sources are in each case acknowledged and annotated at the end of the volume.

D. `The Aesthetics of the Russian Revolutionary Theatre, 1917±1921', British Journal of Aesthetics Vol. 15 (1975), No. 2, pp. 99± 117. In this interesting piece the author seeks to elucidate and assess the revolutionary aesthetics of the theatre during the revolutionary period and to demonstrate that, `however compatible with the cultural aims of the Bolshevik leaders and even encouraged by them', the activities of those who sought to make theatre an integral part of everyday life in a communist society and an expression of the vitality of the revolution (e.g. Meyerhold and Kerzhentsev) `went far beyond [the Bolsheviks'] expectations and had to be curtailed as official theatre policy'.

Drawing on the usual printed sources to chart the development of the Russian theatre from its prerevolutionary innovators to the 1930s, Ruehle clearly comes down on the side of those who argue that `Soviet revolutionary theatre was not an original achievement of the Bolsheviks' but an outflow of the Silver Age preceding the revolution.

Boston: Little, Brown & Co., 1920. xv + 273 pp. An illuminating, if somewhat naive, account of the personalities, institutions and theories of the revolutionary-era theatre, with which the author became acquainted during a visit to Russia of 1917 to 1918.

5636 . 24 Art, Science, Culture, Education and Religion The bulk of this rather overambitious published doctoral thesis deals with the period from the 1930s onward. It does, however, include a wealth of data and references and is very well-documented.

5641 Kepley, V. `The Origins of Soviet Cinema: A Study in Industry Development', Quarterly Review of Film Studies Vol. 10 (1985), No. 1, pp. 22±38. An informative study that charts the industry's development from its desperate state at the time of its nationalization in 1919 to the `vital public institution' it had become by the mid-1920s. The author argues that the economic, financial and managerial aspects of this success have been neglected by historians, who have usually been more keen to explore artistic and creative developments.

5636 Constantine, M. and Fern, A. Revolutionary Soviet Film Posters. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1974. xi + 97 pp. A poorly organized selection of seventy-two posters (only sixteen of them in colour), from the years 1924 to 1934, form the basis of this disappointing book.

Madison: University of Wisconsin Press, 1986. ix + 190 pp. Analysing nine films produced in the period between 1926 and 1948, the author argues that Dovzhenko's work had a broader base than the romantic idylls and Ukrainian folk mythology conventionally associated with it. Rather, it was closely linked to current socio-political developments. Kepley also demonstrates how the films in question reflect some of the critical junctures in Soviet history.

5637 Feldman, S. Evolution of Style in the Early Work of Dziga Vertov. New York: Arno Press, 1977. 233 pp. A fascimile reprint of the author's PhD thesis, which was concerned with Vertov's development as an artist. See also Feldman, S.

Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1993. xi + 262 pp. `Considering Eisenstein's art as essentially historiographic', this study sets out to `reground Eisenstein in the Soviet contexts, historical issues, and Marxist thought of his times'. The author identifies two primary kinds of historiography in Eisenstein's works: the earlier focus on history as `a process depicted in progress at the intersection of policy and chance, of plan and circumstances', being inverted in the course of the 1920s to the point where history becomes `an account of a completed path contextualized by the present'.

Lexington, KY: Association for Education in Journalism, 1972. 43 pp. A careful examination of Lenin's actions and activities in the years 1917 to 1923, which is framed to support the authors' contention that Lenin was `perhaps the only national leader of the time who saw in radio something more than a scientific toy for popular amusement'.

A brief but interesting discussion of the early Soviet film industry. The author argues that 1917 was `far from being a boundary, beyond which cinema underwent a clear organizational change and creative transformation'. Rather, attempts by the state to control the cinema pre-dated the revolution, while the Soviet government `did not succeed in integrating cinema and placing it at its own disposition, at least until nearly the middle of the twenties'.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1987. xii + 325 pp. Although largely devoted to Vertov's influential film of 1929, this exceptionally finely researched volume includes some discussion of his newsreel work of the civil-war period, as well as a comprehensive annotated bibliography of his writings and an annotated filmography of his cinematic works.

Ann Arbor, MI: UMI Research Press, 1981. xxiv + 178 pp. A revision for publication of the author's PhD thesis, in which he seeks `to indicate the provenance and the migration routes of the principal elements which entered the constructivist architect's repetoire' in the revolutionary period, focusing upon `the seminal forms and images anteceding the earliest constructivist designs'. Fully half the volume is taken up by sixty black-and-white illustrations (pp. 89±148) and an excellent bibliography (pp. 149±171).

Washington, DC: US Government Printing Office, 1974. x + 92 pp. Although the thematic structure of this volume focuses on education as a science, rather than on its history, the sections are very helpfully cross-referenced.

5729 Khan-Magomedov, S. O. Pioneers of Soviet Architecture: The Search for New Solutions in the 1920s and 1930s. London: Thames and Hudson, 1987. 618 pp. The first two parts of this beautifully illustrated survey deal with `the aesthetic problem of design' and `the social tasks of architecture', while the third and final part, `Markets and Trends', assembles biographies, statements and manifestos concerning the most important architecture in question. The author argues that while, at the time, it seemed clear that the decade after 1917 made the Soviet Union a most important centre for the development of the new architecture, many commentators have subsequently preferred to forget that fact.

New York: Garland Press, 1992. xix + 538 pp. An annotated bibliography, unhelpfully listing its 1,627 items in alphabetical order by the author (or title).

Nottingham: Bramcote Press, 1993. 48 pp. A guide which is predicated on the assumption that `an undergraduate essay can be as scholarly in its way as a doctoral thesis, and that both benefit equally from a critical, even sceptical, approach to the sources used'. The undergraduate, in fact, may well find this guide useful enough, but it is too thin on the ground in every respect to be of great utility to the more advanced scholar. See also Muckle, J.

Roughly half the volume deals with the period after 1917 and Ipatieff's narrative is extensively and informatively annotated by the editors.

5738 Yoo, Y. (ed.) Soviet Education: An Annotated Bibliography and Readers' Guide to Works in English, 1893±1978. London: Greenwood Press, 1980. xvi + 408 pp. Although generally instructively annotated, the bulk of the entries in this volume date from the 1960s and 1970s and the focus is definitely on pure education rather than on the history of education in Soviet Russia. Moreover, the lack of a subject index makes it difficult to identify which items might be of interest to the historical researcher.

Gol'stein', Cahiers du monde russe et sovieÂtique Vol. 28 (1987), Nos 3±4, pp. 411±424. Presented here are eight letters, giving graphic evidence of the dislocation caused in the lives of the academic Rozhdertvenskii family by the 1917 revolutions and the civil war. Mrs Rozhdertvenskaia reports to the exiled Gol'stein of famine, lack of electricity and the disruption of communications, but she and her husband decided to remain in Soviet Russia and attempt to work with the reÂgime.

In refutation of the (then) recently published Soviet claims for the great achievements of higher education since the revolution, the author argues that changes since 1918 were `of an obviously retrograde character and can from no point of view be described as introducing progress into public education in Russia'.

Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1990. xii + 238 pp. Drawing upon an impressive range of published and unpublished sources, this well-documented study (completed only weeks before the author's untimely death) offers a fascinating discussion of Vernadsky's biography and his influence among Russian scientists. Characterizing his subject as `a liberal in politics and an eclectic in philosophy', Bailes places considerable emphasis on Vernadsky's integrity and determined academic independence both before 1917 and in the post-revolutionary period. See also Bailes, K. E. `Natural Scientists and the Soviet System', in D. Koenker, W. G. Rosenberg and R. G.

5755 David-Fox, M. Revolution of the Mind: Higher Learning among the Bolsheviks, 1918±1929. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1997. xvii + 298 pp. A fascinating, scholarly and well-referenced study which charts the development of the Bolshevik concept of higher education as an integral component of the process of `implementing revolutionary missions', making higher education, for the author, `a branch of the party in academia'.

Paris: L'Age de L'Homme, 1990. 214 pp. This thematically organized treatment of all aspects of the early years of Soviet education concentrates upon the developments of the 1920s but contains some interesting coverage of the background to Bolshevik ideas on schooling and youth and of developments during the period 1917 to 1921.

5761 Joravsky, D. Soviet Marxism and Natural Science, 1917±1932. New York: Columbia University Press, 1961. xiv + 433 pp. An exhaustive, thoroughly documented discussion of the Soviet Marxist philosophy of science in its formative years, based upon a trawl of a large volume of Soviet writings. Included in the volume is a valuable 32-page bibliography.

5758 Fitzpatrick, S. The Commissariat of Enlightenment: Soviet Organization of Education and the Arts under Lunacharsky, October 1917±1921. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1970. xxii + 380 pp. Based on Soviet archival materials, this seminal detailed study concentrates upon the institutional workings of Narkompros, its policy-making and its relations with the state, party and society. Particular attention is paid to the role of key Bolsheviks involved with Narkompros (including Lunacharskii, Lenin, Krupskaia, Pokrovskii and Preobrazhenskii). Appended are useful biographical notes relating to over 130 persons involved with the commissariat.

R. Physics and Politics in Revolutionary Russia. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1991. xix + 423 pp. The first chapters of this unique study, based in part upon materials from Russian archives, survey the standing and activities of Russian/Soviet physicists (especially those of the Petrograd PhysicalTechnical Institute and the Russian Association of Physicists) in the years of the revolution, and analyse early Soviet physics policy. The author finds that the success of Soviet scientists in founding scientific research institutes after the October Revolution was a consequence of their independent initiatives and was not `a result of a master plan' drawn up by the major governmental scientific organizations (Glavnauka and the Scientific-Technical Section of VSNKh).

King & Son, 1930. xxii + 237 pp. An attempt to provide an impartial and wideranging survey, touching on schooling at all levels (primary, secondary and tertiary), as well as vocational education, minority issues and party education. Offering a wealth of information from a variety of sources, this volume is something of a minefield for anyone not already more or less intimately familiar with its subject. 5760 Holmes, L. E. The Kremlin and the Schoolhouse: Reforming Education in Soviet Russia, 1917± 1931. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1991. xv + 214 pp. Utilizing contemporary published materials, especially newspapers, the author examines primary and secondary education in Soviet Russia from the dual perspective of policy-making in Moscow and policyimplementation (or lack of it) in the classroom. Only the first part of the book (`The Idea and the Reality, 1917±1921') is devoted to the revolutionary period, surveying the interplay of Narkompros, the Party, the Young Communist League and educational lobbyists.

After considering the social background of students in tsarist Russia, the author examines the effect of revolution on student recruitment to a variety of institutions of higher education by analysing students' social origin, sex and party affiliation. It is concluded that `the institutionalization of the values which are held by revolutionaries when in power meets with resistance, particularly from traditional cultural orientations'.

5774 McClelland, J. `Bolshevik Approaches to Higher Education, 1917±1921', Slavic Review Vol. 30 (1971), No. 4, pp. 818±831. A careful tracing of the successive attempts undertaken from 1917 to 1921 to implement three radically different schemes for reform of the higher educational system: that of Narkompros, which from 1918 to 1920 sought to expand all sorts of provision, in order to increase working-class participation and to emphasize Marxism-Leninism in curricula; the more vocationalized programme of 1920; and the plan devised by Lenin in 1921, at the time of the introduction of the NEP, to achieve central control over the system and to play down its social and economic functions.

Buffalo, NY: University of Buffalo Press, 1919. 127 pp. A muddled and overambitious doctoral thesis, which picks up its thread in the nineteenth century and dedicates its final nine pages to the Bolsheviks, claiming that with their ascendancy the autocratic concept of education had been, `for the time being, supplanted'.

Russia after gaining special privileges for himself and for his labs. 5783 Tolz, V. Russian Academicians and the Revolution: Combining Professionalism and Politics. London: Macmillan, 1997. xiv + 236 pp. Focusing upon Russian scholars who were already members of the Russian (later Soviet) Academy of Sciences before October 1917, the author of this stimulating work examines how their status changed after that date, what factors helped them to adjust to post-revolutionary conditions, how the old scholars justified their collaboration with the Bolsheviks, and how the Bolsheviks justified their cooperation with such academic specialists. The second part of the book provides case studies of the linguist Nikolai Marr, the Orientalist Sergei Ol'denburg, the physiologist Ivan Pavlov, the shipbuilding engineer Aleksei Krylov, and the mineralogist Vladimir Vernadskii.

An examination of how the journal Ekonomist, between December 1921 and June 1922, became the most animated organ for the discussion of the general backwardness of Russia, the difficulties of a new `take-off' at the end of the civil war, and the need for an economic theory of socialism (of which the journal's writers saw the germ in the NEP).

A usefully concise and balanced chronological survey, arguing that in 1917, until the Bolshevik revolution forced a breach between Church and State, `the wrong tendency of the Church to remain under State control . . . corresponded with the new fact of a non-religious State's keeping this control'.

5818 Cooke, Bishop R. J. Religion in Russia under the Soviets. New York: The Abingdon Press, 1924. 311 pp. This early attempt to cover the complete history of religious events in Russia from 1917 to 1923, concentrating upon the persecution of the Orthodox Church, is remarkably successful, granted the limited sources then available in the West. However, the work is tainted by its Methodist Episcopalian author's undisguised hostility to Orthodox doctrines and customs. 5819 Curtiss, J. S. `The Russian Orthodox Church and the Provisional Government', American Slavic and East European Review Vol. 7 (1948±1949), No. 3, pp. 237±250. Surveying Church±State relations from the February Revolution to the eve of the convocation of the Church Sobor in August 1917, the author argues that the liberalism and even radicalism which had been espoused by the clergy in the spring had, by high summer, been replaced by a strong movement in the direction of conservatism (in response to a perceived lack of sympathy in the government, the revolt in the army and the spread of agrarian disorders). This, Curtiss concludes, `boded no good for the peace of the Church'.

An exploration of the pre-history of the antireligious movement (from the civil war to 1926) through early governmental decrees on religious affairs, party pronouncements on anti-religious propaganda and the rank-and-file Bolsheviks' `generally uncoordinated and even contradictory efforts at carrying out one or the other'.

This general article includes some fairly extensive coverage of the fate of adherents of the Uniate Church in the years 1917 to 1922. 5828 Hecker, J. F. Religion and Communism: A Study of Religion and Atheism in Soviet Russia. London: Chapman & Hall, 1933. 303 pp. Written from a pro-Bolshevik standpoint, this valuable survey includes a number of important documents and an important discussion of the objectives, organization and achievements of the antireligious movement in the early years of Soviet rule.

5823 Dmitriev, M. E. `Riazan Diocese in 1917', Russian Studies in History Vol. 38 (1999), No. 2, pp. 66±82. A chronological account of the impact in one diocese of the reforms of the Church administration and the democratization of the Church under the Provisional Government. The author contends that, in comparison to its prior and subsequent existence under tsarism and under Soviet rule, `for Riazan Diocese, 1917 was the best year. Most churchmen, priests and other clergy welcomed the February Revolution.'

5829 Heyer, F. Die Orthodoxe Kirche in der Ukraine von 1917 bis 1945. Cologne±Braunsfeld: R. MuÈller, 1953. 259 pp. An important, comprehensive scholarly study, albeit one containing some factual errors and one tinged with the specific circumstances in which the author came into contact with his sources: as a soldier, he took part in the Nazi invasion of Ukraine in 1941 and met many of the Orthodox hierarchs who had been entrusted with the reconstruction of the Church.

5824 Doroshenko, D. `The Uniate Church in Galicia (1914±1917), Slavonic and East European Review Vol. 12 (1933±1934), pp. 622±627. A review of the history and sufferings of the Uniate Church and its Metropolitan, Andrew Szeptycki, during Galicia's occupation by the Russians during the war, together with some brief comments on the impact of the February Revolution of 1917.

5830 Husband, W. B. `Soviet Atheism and Russian Orthodox Strategies of Resistance, 1917±1932', Journal of Modern History Vol. 70 (1998), No. 1, pp. 74±107. A detailed and erudite examination of how workers and peasants resisted Bolshevik attempts (which the author finds to have been chronically underfunded) `to turn society atheist'. Their methods, Husband finds, ranged from violence, through the perversion of Soviet laws and bureaucratic procedures, to sophisticated stratagems of circumvention.

5825 Emhardt, W. C. Religion in Soviet Russia. London: A. R. Mowbray, 1929. xix + 387 pp. This volume examines the relations between the Church and the Soviet state from 1917 to 1928, with special reference to the role of Patriarch Tikhon and the efforts of the state to disrupt the Church through the encouragement of reformist groups within it. The volume includes many important documents.

5831 Husband, W. B. `Godless Communists': Atheism and Society in Soviet Russia, 1917±1932. De Kalb, IL: Northern Illinois University Press, 2000. xvii + 241pp. This elegantly written and sophisticated study of the fate of Russian Orhtodoxy after 1917, which is based on Russian archival materials and a wealth of published sources, emphasizes the contradictions between the Bolsheviks' conception of the promotion of atheism through various means and the reality of the implementation of anti-religious policies. Husband concludes that the party responded to events as much as they shaped them.

5826 Evtuhov, C. `The Church in the Russian Revolution: Arguments for and against Restoring the Patriarchate at the Church Council of 1917±1918', Slavic Review Vol. 50 (1991), No. 3, pp. 497±511. An interesting view of the debates surrounding the proposed restoration of the Patriarchate as representing the culmination of the movement for renewal of the Church along the lines of sobornost' (the collective principle), which had occupied both secular modernist and reform-orientated Church circles since the turn of the century. The article is based largely upon recently opened archives in Moscow.

5839 Mackenzie, F. A. The Russian Crucifixion: The Full Story of the Persecution of Religion under Bolshevism. London: Jarrolds, 1930. 140 pp. A highly impressionistic, partisan and melodramatic account, based largely on the author's own experience as a correspondent for the Chicago Daily News in Russia from 1921 to 1924.

5833 Kahle, W. Geschichte der evangelisch±lutherischen Gemeinden in der Sovetunion, 1917±1938. Leiden: E. J. Brill, 1974. xii + 625 pp. An objective fact-filled analysis of the organizational struggle and the sufferings of German, Finnish, Swedish, Estonian, Latvian and Armenian Lutheran parishes. The volume includes an excellent bibliography and a documentary appendix of 136 pages.

Le Mouvement antireligieux en U.R.S.S. (1917±1932). Paris: Marcel RivieÁre, 1933. ix + 233 pp. This attempt to provide a referenced scholarly study focuses mainly on the late 1920s, touching only briefly on the immediate post-revolutionary years.

5834 Kartachev, A.-V. `La reÂvolution et le concile de 1917±1918', Russie et ChreÂtienteÂ (Paris), Vol. 1±2 (1950), pp. 7±42. 5835 LeÂdit, J. Archbishop John Baptist Cieplak. Montreal: Palm Publishers, 1963. 138 pp. A sympathetic biography of the last archbishop of Mogilev, who was arrested, imprisoned and exiled by the Bolsheviks.

A brief but unique review of Lenin's attitude to the Dukhobors during their emigration of the 1890s and of the Soviet government's attitude to those who remained in Russia in the years after the revolution.

Mott with Orthodox Church Leaders, June±July 1917', St Vladimir's Theological Quarterly Vol. 20 (1976), No. 3, pp. 169±180. Dr Mott, General Secretary of the American YMCA, was attached to the Root Mission in a religious capacity.

5844 Poska, J. G. The Martyrdom of Bishop Platon. Stockholm, Culture Fund of the Estonian Apostolic Orthodox Church, 1968. 56 pp. An example of hagiographical religious writing at its most embarrassing.

5837 Luukanen, A. The Party of Unbelief: The Religious Policy of the Bolshevik Party, 1917±1929. Helsinki: Suomen Historiallinen Seura, 1994. 274 pp. This authoritative study, the fullest treatment of its subject available, utilizes archival material to demonstrate how Bolshevik religious policy was formed not so much by militant materialism as by the demands of the changing political situation. Thus, the author claims, during the civil war (the subject of the book's first section) the reÂgime limited its policy to legislating Church±State relations in order to isolate the Russian Orthodox Church.

A History of Soviet Atheism in Theory and Practice, and the Believer, Vol. 3: Soviet Studies on the Church and the Believer's Response to Atheism. London: Macmillan, 1988. xxxii + 325 pp. These three volumes vacillate worryingly between genuine scholarship and sections which are more strong on pathos and conjecture. The period prior to 1928 is covered in Volume 1 (pp. 6±41) and Volume 2 (pp. 1±60), in a manner hardly suitable as a first point of reference, but one no doubt of some interest to those more familiar with the issues at hand.

London: John Murray, 1924. 401 pp. A hostile account, by a British Roman Catholic journalist who had worked with the Kolchak reÂgime and was present at the trial of the Roman Catholic Archbishop Jan Cieplak in 1923 (to which event half the volume is devoted).

The author traces the evolution of Church±State relations from an unwilling acceptance by the clergy of the disestablishment of the Church under the Provisional Government to its active opposition to the Soviet reÂ gime by January 1918. See also Smolitsch, I. `Der Konzilsvorbereitungsausschuss des Jahres 1906. Zur Vorgeschichte des Moskauer Landeskonzils von 1917/1918', Kirche im Osten Vol. 7 (1964), pp. 53±93.

5846 Roshestvensky, A. His Holiness Tikhon, Patriarch of Moscow and of All the Russias. A Memoir (transl. by `H. P.'). London: Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, 1923. 31 pp. This account, in fact, draws upon the author's general knowledge of religious affairs, as a priest who had fled Soviet Russia, rather than on specific, firsthand observation. It is strong on adulation, but flimsy in the extreme in terms of its informational value.

GoÈttingen: Vandenhoeck & Rupprecht, 1995. 212 pp. This study argues that the Orthodox Council of 1917 to 1918 was, in fact, an epochal event for Orthodox Christianity in Russia and beyond, as it developed a comprehensive concept for Church reform and as its conciliar mode provided a model for later such meetings. The volume contains detailed surveys of both the available primary sources and the secondary literature, as well as a number of documents.

5853 Swan, J. A Biography of Patriarch Tikhon. Jordanville, NY: Holy Trinity Monastery, 1964. 112 pp. An admiring biography, by an author who avers that `it is difficult to assess the greatness of Tikhon'. Three-quarters of the volume, which features lengthy quotations from Tikhon's speeches and writings and from the contemporary press, is devoted to the period from 1917 to the Patriarch's death in 1925. 5854 Timasheff, N. S. Religion in Soviet Russia, 1917±1942 (pref. by F. X. Moorehouse and S. J. Millar). London: Sheed & Ward, 1943. xii + 171 pp. In this volume, drawing upon published Soviet data, the observations of visitors to Russia and his own experiences in Petrograd during the years 1917 to 1921, the eÂmigreÂ sociologist attempts to demonstrate, according to the authors of his Preface, how Russian Christianity fared `at the hands of those who have manifestly attempted everything a perverted ingenuity could devise to obliterate it'.

5849 Senin, A. `Russian Army Chaplains during World War I', Russian Studies in History Vol. 32 (1993±1994), No. 2, pp. 43±52. A descriptive account of the organization and tasks of army chaplains both under the tsar and under the Provisional Government. The author finds that in 1917, politically, `the chaplains found the position of the Kadets to their liking'.

5856 . 24 Art, Science, Culture, Education and Religion Religion Carried out by the Communist (Soviet) Government in Russia (pref. by P. Struve). London: Boswell Printing and Publishing Co., 1929. xxiii + 266 pp. Utilizing extensive quotations from the contemporary Soviet press, the compiler and author of this volume presents an extremely hostile portrait of Soviet attacks upon religion, from persecutions against the clergy at the time of the civil war to the arrests and trials of Patriarch Tikhon and Archbishop Cepliak of 1922 to 1923.

A scholarly study of the impact of the Bolsheviks' anti-religious campaigns of the early years of the Soviet state. The author focuses upon those who were persecuted and seeks to demonstrate the variety of manners in which Russian peasants succeeded in circumventing the law and the authorities so as to preserve and to assert their religious faith. 5859 Zatko, J. J. Descent into Darkness: The Destruction of the Roman Catholic Church in Russia, 1917±1923. Notre Dame, IN: University of Note Dame Press, 1965. ix + 232 pp. A scholarly account (if one overtly sympathetic to the Church and overtly anti-Bolshevik and antiUkrainian) of the fate of the Polish Roman Catholic Church in Russia from February 1917 to the trial of Archbishop Cieplak and others of 1923. The volume is based, in part, upon American and Polish archival materials. See also Zatko, J.

5856 Veryha, W. `Looting of Churches in Ukraine in 1922', Ukrainian Quarterly Vol. 46 (1990), No. 3, pp. 233±245. Utilizing the contemporary press and other published sources, the author of this piece argues that the Soviet government's looting of Church valuables during the famine period had some economic reasons behind it, but `the most important objective was to humiliate and destroy the authority of the Church and its hierarchy'. 5857 Wuyts, A. Le Patriarcat russe au Concile de Moscou de 1917±1918.

25 The Revolution and Civil War in Fiction 5861 Angarsky, A. Eighty-seven Days. New York: AndreÂ Deutsch, 1964. 642 pp. A hilariously bad novel, set against the background of the activities of Boris Savinkov and his supporters' underground activities in Moscow during the spring and early summer of 1918. The work not only `expands to include a host of people from Lenin himself through the whole fabric of Russian life at that time', but `woven into' it are `the loves of three different women', including `the lovely Xenia Kotova, who in spite of her old-fashioned piety is unable to resist the passion of a handsome and idealistic young Bolshevik'.

5864 . 25 The Revolution and Civil War in Fiction appearing in book form in 1916) this evocative portrait of terrorism and conspiracy captures the fetid atmosphere of the Russian capital ± especially the anxiety and disorientation of both revolutionaries and the reÂgime ± better than any other novel.

London: The Russian Liberation Committee, 1919. 12 pp. A lurid if humorously told fantasy of blackmarket cigarettes, Red Terror and broken lifts in a `Bolshevik London' of the imagined future. The piece appears also in Nineteenth Century No. 85 (1919), pp. 383±394.

5864 Bogdanov, A. Red Star: The First Bolshevik Utopia (transl. by C. Rougle). Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1984. x + 257 pp. This utopian novel, by the leading Bolshevik Party theorist and philosopher, portrays a superior socialistic society on Mars. It was published in several editions in the 1920s and was praised by Bukharin, among others, as `one of the best socialist ``utopias'' '. See also Adams, M.

Daniel, 1922. 196 pp. A rather uncouth novel, which tells the story of a young Russian nobleman turned Bolshevik by the events of 1905 but converted to pacifism by the events of 1917. 5868 Egan, J. Elena: A Story of the Russian Revolution. London: Collins, 1981. 314 pp. A bad novel, of interest only in that it was apparently based on the actual experiences of a Russian aristocrat whose husband served in the Volunteer Army.

5865 Bulgakov, M. The White Guard (transl. by M. Glenny; epilogue by V. Nekrasov). London: Harvill Press, 1996. 301 pp. Regarded by many as the best novel on the revolutionary period (and by some as the best novel of all time), this partly autobiographical volume presents an intensely moving and sympathetic portrait of a monarchist family's life during the Red, White, German and nationalist invasions of Kiev in 1918 and 1919. A stage version, Days of the Turbins, which was adapted by Bulgakov in 1926, is available in many published versions, one of the earliest of them in Lyons, E. (ed.) Six Soviet Plays (pref. by I.

5873 HasÏ ek, J. The Red Commissar. Including Further Adventures of the Good Soldier SÏvejk and Other Stories (transl. by Sir C. Parrot; illustr. by J. Lada). New York: Dial Press, 1981. xvi + 283 pp. This collection includes the `Bugulma Stories', based on the noted satirical author's experiences as an `organizer' in that town for two years following its liberation from the Whites in 1919. On the author's time in Russia see: HaÂjek, J. `HasÏ ek in Russland' (transl. by G. Just), Sinn und Form Vol. 36 (1984), No. 3, pp. 610±630.

5880 Pasternak, B. Doctor Zhivago (transl. by M. Hayward and M. Harari). London: Collins & Harvill Press, 1958. 510 pp. The famous poetic and epic novel of war, revolution and civil war, which the author completed in 1956 and then published abroad, thereby unleashing one of the great literary scandals of modern times, as Pasternak was compelled by the Soviet authorities to refuse the Nobel Prize for Literature. The work was finally published in the USSR in 1988. On the work see Erlich, V. `A Testimony and a Challenge ± Pasternak's ``Doctor Zhivago'' ', Problems of Communism Vol. 7 (1958), No. 6, pp. 46±49. For the critique of the novel by the editors of Novy mir, which was so crucial to the campaign against the author, see The Current Digest of the Soviet Press Vol. 10 (1958), No. 43, pp. 6±11, 32.

5874 Lavrenyov, B. The Forty First. Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House, n.d. [1958?]. 190 pp. The famous tale, originally published in 1924, of military operations and the vicissitudes of civilian life during the civil war around the shores of the Aral Sea. The author served as a volunteer in the Red Army. The military also feature heavily in the other two stories included in this volume: `The Seventh Satellite' (1926± 1927) and `Commandant Pushkin' (1926).

5881 Pilnyak, B. The Naked Year (transl. and afterword by A. R. Tulloch). Ann Arbor, MI: Ardis, 1975. 204 pp. This work, the novel which established Pil'niaks' reputation, was originally written in 1920. AntiWesternism and the author's unorthodox ideas on revolution and historical development infuse both the chaotic style of the prose and the `plot' of the novel, as Pil'niak presents a variety of characters symbolizing different viewpoints of the revolution and various aspects of pre- and post-revolutionary Russian society. See also Pilnyak, B. Mother Earth and Other Stories (transl. and ed. by V. T. Reck and M. Green). London: Andre Deutsch, 1969. xiv + 290 pp. On the author, see: Browning, G. L.

5875 Lyon, F. H. The Fool of Faith. New York: Liveright, 1935. 336 pp. Includes a graphic description of conditions in the prison camp at Sveaborg maintained by the White victors of the civil war in Finland. 5876 Marchant, B. A Dangerous Mission: A Tale of Russia in Revolution. London: Blackie and Sons, 1918. 256 pp. A folksy, trashy novel, interesting only as an example of the flights of fancy the revolution inspired among certain Western audiences. 5877 Ossendowski, F. Lenin: God of the Godless (transl. by G. Macdonald). London: Constable & Co., 1931. 409 pp. A biographical novel, notable for its sensationalist and hostile tone. 5878 Ossorgin, M. A. A Quiet Street (transl. by N. Helstein). London: Martin Secker, 1930. 366 pp. A novel portraying the impact of war, revolution and civil war upon an old academic and his young granddaughter and their friends and acquaintances who live in a street in the Arbat district of Moscow. The work was a best-seller at the time of its original (Russian) publication, but is hardly of the highest literary quality.

5882 Platonov, A. Chevengur (transl. by A. Ollcott). Ann Arbor, MI: Ardis, 1978. xvii + 333 pp. Originally written in 1927, but banned in the USSR until the late 1980s, in this wonderfully imaginative novel, set in the imaginary city of the same name, a group of jaded revolutionaries 593

5883 . 25 The Revolution and Civil War in Fiction experience the violence, bloodshed, death and destruction of the civil war and imagine their reward in a communist utopia of the future. The author (a distinctive stylist, whose work virtually defies translation) is now widely regarded as one of the most brilliant Russian writers of the twentieth century. On his life and work, see Jordon, M. Andrei Platonov. Letchworth: Bradda Books, 1973. 119 pp.; Seifrid, T. J. Andrei Platonov: Uncertainties of Spirit.

G. `The Critique of Terrorism in the Novels of Boris Savinkov', Australian Slavonic and East European Studies Vol. 7 (1993), No. 2, pp. 1±14. 5886 Rozanov, V. V. Solitaria. With an Abridged Account of the Author's Life by E. Gollerbach, Other Biographical Material, and Matter from The Apocalypse of Our Times (transl. by S. S. Koteliansky). London: Wishart & Co., 1927. viii + 188 pp. Apart from excerpts from Rozanov's apocalyptic post-revolutionary writings and the earlier (1912) Solitaria, this volume contains a `critico-biographical study' of the author by Gollerbach, recollections of Rozanov by N. N. Roussov, and letters written by Rozanov to Gollerbach between May and October 1918. As the preface immediately points out, Rozanov `dared to defend ideas and policies which no reactionary journalist would have dreamt of supporting in the press'. Thus, even when `it was necessary . . . to prove that Jews killed young Christian boys in order to use their blood for ritual purposes ± Rozanov performed the task unblushingly, boldly and most cynically'. For a recent, more extensive edition of The Apocalypse of Our Times, see Four Faces of Rozanov: Christianity, Sex, Jews and the Russian Revolution (transl. and introd. by S. E. Roberts). New York: Philosophical Library, 1978. 310 pp.

5883 Proffer, C. R. et al. (eds) Russian Literature of the Twenties: An Anthology (introd. by R. A. Maguire). Ann Arbor: MI: Ardis, 1987. xvii + 566 pp. This excellent collection, an ideal introduction to the literature of the period, brings together pieces of prose by Bulgakov, Zamiatin, Vselevod Ivanov, Zoschenko, Pil'niak and others, poetry by Platonov, Blok, Akhmatova, Mandelshtam, Babel and others, and non-fiction pieces by Babel, Mandelshtam, Bulgakov, Zamiatin and Furmanov, as well as a selection of documents. Much of the book's content deals with the period of the revolution and civil war. A bibliography lists key works by and about the selected authors.

5887 Serge, V. Les ReÂvolutionnaires. Romans. Paris: EÂditions du Seuil, 1967. 956 pp. A collection of five of Serge's novels on revolutionary themes: Les Hommes dans la prison (written in 1926±1929); Naissance de notre force (1929±1930); Ville conquise (1930±1931); S'il est minuit dans le sieÁcle (1936±1939); and L'Affaire ToulaeÂv (1940± 1942).

5884 Proffer, E. and Proffer, C. R. The Ardis Anthology of Russian Futurism. Ann Arbor, MI: Ardis, 1980. 392 pp. This anthology includes pieces of prose and poetry by all the leading exponents of Futurism in Russia, critical and programmatical statements by Osip Brik, Boris Eikhenbaum, Maiakovskii, Zamiatin and others, and seven academic articles by experts in the field.

5888 Shaginian, M. Mess-Mend: Yankees in Petrograd (introd. and transl. by S. D. Cioran). Ann Arbor: Ardis, 1991. 268 pp. Inspired by Bukharin's call for the creation of a `Red Pinkerton', this satirical detective novel (originally published in 1923) weaves its propagandistic purpose unusually lightly. The work was immediately popular, not only with the general public but also with Bukharin (who appreciated its `cheerful attitude of international proletarian resistance') and with Alexander Rodchenko (who designed covers for the serialization of the Mess-Mend tales). In sum, the work serves as a fascinating and genuinely innovative reminder of the diverse character of Bolshevik cultural and literary policies well into the 1920s and is likely to surprise readers familiar with the author only from her later more `respectable' works.

5885 Ropshin, B. [pseud. = Savinkov, B.] The Black Horse (transl. and fwd. by Sir P. Dukes). London: Williams & Norgate, 1924. xv + 143 pp. Widely regarded as the author's best novel, this is a semi-autobiographical account of the ill-starred 1920 Mozyr campaign of Savinkov's `Russian National Army of Liberation' and of the antiBolshevik underground in Moscow and in rural Russia during the civil war. See also Ropshin, B. [pseud. = Savinkov, B.] What Never Happened: A Novel of the Revolution (transl. by T. Seltzer). London: Allen & Unwin, 1919. 448 pp. For commentary on Savinkov's novels, see Christensen, P. G. `Camus and Savinkov: Examining the Pro594

The Revolution and Civil War in Fiction . 5892 5889 Shatrov, M. Dramas of the Revolution (transl. by C. Carlisle and S. McKee). Moscow: Progress, 1990. 399 pp. Included in this collection of Shatrov's plays, all of which were based upon a thorough study of Lenin's works and the relevant historical literature, is `The Brest Peace', on the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk ± one of the most celebrated Russian productions of the era of glasnost'. For an alternative collection and translation, see Shatrov, M. The Bolsheviks and Other Plays. London: Nick Hern Books, 1990. xiv + 254 pp.

5891 Solzhenitsyn, A. I. August 1914 (transl. by M. Glenny). New York: Farrar, Straus & Giroux, 1972. 622 pp. Solzhenitsyn, A. I. November 1916 (transl. by H. T. Willets). London: Jonathan Cape, 1999. 1014 pp. The first volumes (or `knots', as Solzhenitsyn prefers to term them) of the Nobel Prize-winning dissident's projected multi-volume cycle of novels (The Red Wheel) dealing with Russia's experience of the First World War and the revolutions of 1917, both of which consist of a montage of Tolstoyan narratives, political texts and other documents. The first volume sparked controversy for its alleged neoStalinist messianic fervour and for its apparent implication that the origins of the Bolshevik victory can be traced back to the Jews, particularly following the publication of a revised and expanded edition in 1989. On this issue, see Navrozov, L. `Solzhenitsyn's World History: August 1914 as a New Protocols of the Elders of Zion', Midstream Vol. 31 (1985), No. 6, pp. 46±53. See also Heller, M. `Yesterday and Today in Alexander Solzhenitsyn's The Red Wheel', Survey: A Journal of East and West Studies Vol. 29 (1985), No. 2, pp. 29±45; Mandel, E. `Solzhenitsyn, Stalin and the October Revolution', New Left Review No. 86 (1974), pp. 51±61; Oja, M.

5890 Sholokov, M. And Quiet Flows the Don. London: Putnam, 1935. 755 pp. The epic tale of Don Cossack life through war, revolution and civil war, focusing upon the tragic love of a young Cossack, Grigori Melekhov, who vacillates between the Reds and the Whites. Sholokov won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1965, largely on the basis of this much republished and translated work, although he initially had difficulty in getting it published. For an argument that Sholokov (who was not a Cossack) was probably not the author of this work, but that it was purloined from a captured White officer, see Medvedev, R. A. Problems in the Literary Biography of Mikhail Sholokov (transl. by A. D. P. Briggs). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1977. 227 pp. For an argument that he was the author, see Ermolaev, H. Mikhail Sholokov and His Art. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1982. xvi + 375 pp. The controversy may also be followed from the following: Murphy, B. `Sholokov and Lukomsky', Journal of Russian Studies Vol. 12 (1970), No. 19, pp. 36±41; Bearne, C. `Sholokov and His Sources', Journal of Russian Studies Vol. 13 (1971), No. 22, pp. 10±18; Ermolaev, H. `Riddles of The Quiet Don: A Review Article', Slavic and East European Journal Vol. 18 (1974), No. 3, pp. 299±310; Ermolaev, H. `Who Wrote The Quiet Don?

5892 Solzhenitsyn, A. I. Lenin in Zurich. London: The Bodley Head, 1975. 266 pp. Although the author made claims for this and his other works as being `experiments in artistic research', seeking to dissolve the frontiers of literature and history, as a work of academic history it is seriously faulted ± not least in its presentation of Parvus as Lenin's close associate and as the evil genius and inspirer of the Russian revolution. From the first pages Lenin is portrayed as an obsessive, vengeful, calculating and petty-minded megalomaniac. For commentary on the book, see Elwood, R. C. `Scoundrel or Saviour?

Alexander Solzhenitsyn: A Century in His Life. New York: St Martin's Press, 1998. 576 pp.

5895 Walpole, H. The Secret City. London: Macmillan, 1919. 446 pp. This amusing roman aÁ clef is based upon the successful young novelist's experiences in Russia (at the front and in Petrograd), from September 1914 to November 1917, during which time he was largely engaged in the devising and spreading of pro-British propaganda. For further details, see Hart-Davis, R. Hugh Walpole: A Biography. London: Macmillan, 1952. xiv + 503 pp.

5893 Tolstoi, A. Ordeal (transl. by I. Litvinova and T. Litvinova), 3 vols. Moscow: Progress Publishers, 1967. 430 + 462 + 572 pp. This celebrated trilogy charts the life of a number of ordinary characters from the years of the First World War through the revolutionary period and the civil-war years, as they evolve from detached onlookers to active participants in the revolutionary process. In her preface to the first volume L. Polyak writes that the work `was in keeping with the times, which demanded monumental form in art to reflect a heroic epoch, its grandiose plans, its great accomplishments'. Volume 1 (The Sisters) was written in 1919; Volume 2 (1918) in 1928; and Volume 3 (Bleak Morning) in 1941. Earlier editions of the separate parts are available in English translation, but this is probably the handiest set.

5896 Zamyatin, E. We (transl. by M. Ginsburg). New York: Viking Press, 1972. xxi + 232 pp. A good translation of Zamiatin's masterpiece of science fiction, political satire and experimental prose, in which a true believer comes to question the validity of a totalitarian state. Originally written in 1920, the book earned the distinction of becoming the first novel to be banned by Glavlit (the Chief Administration for Literary Affairs) and remained unpublished in the Soviet Union. For a selection of approaches to the novel, see Kern, G. Zamyatin's We: A Collection of Critical Essays. Ann Arbor, MI: Ardis, 1988. 306 pp. See also Collins, C.

5894 Tolstoy, A. N. Bread: A Novel. London: Victor Gollancz, 1938. 447 pp. Characterized by the author himself as `an essential link between the novel 1918 and the already projected novel Bleak Morning' (see [5893]), this novel, dealing with the events of the civil war on the South-western Front, was supposed to be `an attempt at getting to know precise historical material by artistic means; hence its undeniable lack of imaginative freedom'. However, the outstanding role attributed to Stalin and the parallel denunciation of Trotsky's activities in the civil war rather undermines this claim.
