Download or read book Russia 1917 the Kornilov Affair written by George Katkov and published by Longman Publishing Group. This book was released on 1980 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines events surrounding the Kornilov Affair, the supposed planned coup d'etat against the provisonal government by General Kornilov the supreme commander of Russia's armed forces. Prime Minister Kerensky, obsessed by the fear of mutiny, denounced Kornilov as a traitor and had him arrested. Kerensky then made himself supreme commander of the armed forces causing great upheaval and total disorganisation of the military and loss of fighting strength. The Bolsheviks were thus able to seize power without meeting any organised resistance in October 1917. This work examins whether Kornilov really did plan a coup or was it a figment of Kerensky's suspicious imagination? The facts of the case are vital but obscured by conflicting testimony of the partcipants. Katkov's long immersion in the literature of the period and access to unpublished documents uniquely qualify him to write the history of this confused but crucial episode of the Russian Revolution.

Download or read book Strikes and Revolution in Russia 1917 written by Diane P. Koenker and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than seventy years since the Bolsheviks came to power, there is still no comprehensive study of workers' activism in history's first successful workers' revolution. Strikes and Revolution in Russia, 1917 is the first effort in any language to explore this issue in both quantitative and qualitative terms and to relate strikes to the broader processes of Russia's revolutionary transformation. Diane Koenker and William Rosenberg not only provide a new basis for understanding essential elements of Russia's social and political history in this critical period but also make a strong contribution to the literature on European labor movements. Using statistical techniques, but without letting methodology dominate their discussion, the authors examine such major problems as the mobilization of labor and management, factory relations, perceptions, the formation of social identities, and the relationship between labor protest and politics in 1917. They challenge common assumptions by showing that much strike activity in 1917 can be understood as routine, but they are also able to demonstrate how the character of strikes began to change and why.
