Beschreibung:
Roxanne Easley is associate professor of history at Central Washington University. She has published articles in Slavic Review and Tolstoy Studies Journal on political culture during the Russian Great Reforms. She is presently preparing a manuscript on people of mixed ethnic heritage in Russian America.
In the wake of the disastrous Crimean War, the Russian autocracy completely renovated its most basic social, political and economic systems by emancipating 23 million privately-owned serfs. This book examines the emancipation, describing how the reforms were instituted in practice, and exploring the profound implications for Russian politics and society.
