Summary |
"The Russian Revolution; The Jugo-Slav Movement" by Alexander Petrunkevitch et al. is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The text examines the Russian Revolution of 1917, exploring its significant impact on Russian society and the global political landscape. It discusses both the turmoil leading to the revolution and the emergence of new political movements, such as the Jugo-Slav movement, which provides a broader perspective on revolutionary change. At the start of this volume, the introduction delves into the complexities surrounding the Russian Revolution, asserting that it represents one of modern history's pivotal moments. The various factions involved, including the Bolsheviks and the intellectual class, are presented along with their conflicting ideologies. Petrunkevitch reflects on the significant influence of intellectuals on the revolutionary process and how their disconnect from the peasantry and working-class populations ultimately shaped the outcome. This opening section sets the stage for deeper discussions about leadership, societal change, and the dynamics of power within revolutionary movements. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
