Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
The Russian agrarian scene at the turn of the century is analyzed. Agrarian overpopulation, peasant communes, and the Stolypin reform are specifically examined with the intent of displaying features of the Russian countryside that have persisted through all of the political upheavals of the 20th century. Among them are : an east-west gradient of agricultural output per unit of land, an attachment to collective farming, the peasant character of Russian agriculture, and the regional pattern of reform.
