Abstract

The February and October revolutions of 1917 were based, in large part, on Marxist visions of class struggle and working class power. Despite not being an industrial power, the russian working class was significant. Benjamin Nathans sums up the social circumstances of Russia in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. A unique set of circumstanced led to a very weak ruling class, a powerful and radical working class (albeit a tiny one), and a significant number of intellectuals: A handful of cities became modern metropolises even as they retained many features of preindustrial life. And an embryonic civil society, whose most characteristic element was not a bourgeois middle class but a remarkably diverse intelligentsia, created the framework for new kinds of contacts across lines of nationality and religion.
