In particular, I wish to thank the staffsof the Lenin Library, the Central State Archive of the October Revolution, and the Central State Archive for Liter­ ature and Art, who were extremely generous with their busy sched­ ules during my stay in Moscow. I am also grateful to the staffsof the Hoover Institution, Columbia University's Butler Library, and Duke University's Perkins Library. The collections of nineteenth­ century Russian emigre journals and newspapers at the Collindale branch of the British Libraries in London and at the Bibliotheque Documentation Internationale Contemporaine on the Nanterre campus of the University of Paris richly supplement the collections in the Soviet Union. The Archives Nationales also should be men­ tioned, especially for the material on the Russian emigres in the Paris police files. My thanks to the cooperative staffsof these institu­ tions as well for facilitating my work there. Earlier drafts of this book were read by Leopold Haimson, Jonathan Sanders, Victor Ripp, and Ylana Miller. In addition, Hen­ ry Tom, Senior Social Sciences Editor at Hopkins, gave the entire manuscript a careful and critical reading which raised many vital issues. The revisions I made as a result of these readings have unquestionably improved this book. I am indebted to each of these individuals for their help; needless to say, none of them is responsi­ ble for any problems which remain. Finally, for an expert job of typing the manuscript, I wish to express my gratitude to Thelma Kithcart and Dorothy Sapp at Duke. Financial support for this study was indispensable. I am es­ pecially grateful to the National Endowment for the Humanities Xll ACKNOWLEDGMENTS and the Duke University Research Council for their aid. A grant from the International Research and Exchanges Board made my trip to the Soviet Union possible. Much of this book was written at the W. Averill Harriman Institute for Advanced Study of the Soviet Union, Columbia Uni­ versity, during several extended visits to New York as a visiting Senior Fellow. I wish to thank my colleagues for their stimulating discussions about my work, and the staff of the Institute for as­ sistance that facilitated my research and writing. I have utilized the Library of Congress Slavic transliteration system, with exceptions for names already familiarin English (such as Nicholas I and Dostoevsky). Regarding dating, since most of the materials cited in this study were written in WesternEurope, I have used the Gregorian calendar for these; however, for the materials produced within the Russian Empire, I have retained the Julian calendar dates, which were twelve days behind the Gregorian calen­ dar during the nineteenth century. ----------1---------- THE FIBST GENEBATION In all of Europe, I, with my Russian anguish, was the only free man. DOSTOEVSKY ------------1------------ The World of Emigration in Nineteenth-Century Europe Emigration as a Problem of Historical Investigation The presence of emigres from Russia in the capitals of Western Europe has been a source of continual fascinationfor over a century. Vivid representations of these escapees from tsarist oppression in the years prior to World War I have appeared in literature, in jour­ nalistic reportage, and in political discussions in every country in which they resided. The Russian revolutionary emigre has fur­ nished the world with a special prototype-the fiercely committed intellectual who lives abroad for the express purpose of preparing himself for the revolution he seeks at home. The fanatics in the novels of Dostoevsky and Conrad left indelible impressions on many minds, echoes of which can be found in numerous empathic contemporary accounts such as the following: We recognize at once a man for whom the outside world scarcely exists, the dreamer who sees not forms, but problems, the inveterate bookworm who daily escapes only by miracles from the snares that carts and omnibuses lay for his absent mindedness.... His life is an exposition of principles or a perpetual discussion, and all the time we spend with him he is theorizing, comparing dates and events, describing a skeleton Russia wherein there seems to be neither men, women, nor children, but only an abstract population of problems.1 Initial efforts by Europeans to try to comprehend the moti­ vation and mentality of these uninvited political guests began, for the most part, in the 1860s, when the word nihilism was used as a comprehensive descriptive term forall Russian emigres who were at odds with the Russian autocracy. 2 During the 1870s, when the revo­ lutionary movement in Russia was gathering momentum and the numbers of Russian political exiles increased markedly in the cities 4 THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTIONARY EMIGRES of Western Europe, the imagery of the Russian emigration assumed almost mythic proportions.

  • Jewish Encyclopedia
    Jewish Encyclopedia The History, Religion, Literature, And Customs Of The Jewish People From The Earliest Times To The Present Day Volume XII TALMUD – ZWEIFEL New York and London FUNK AND WAGNALLS COMPANY MDCCCCVI ZIONISM: Movement looking toward the segregation of the Jewish people upon a national basis and in a particular home of its own: specifically, the modern form of the movement that seeks for the Jews “a publicly and legally assured home in Palestine,” as initiated by Theodor Herzl in 1896, and since then dominating Jewish history. It seems that the designation, to distinguish the movement from the activity of the Chovevei Zion, was first used by Matthias Acher (Birnbaum) in his paper “Selbstemancipation,” 1886 (see “Ost und West,” 1902, p. 576: Ahad ha – ‘Am, “Al Parashat Derakim,” p. 93, Berlin, 1903). Biblical Basis The idea of a return of the Jews to Palestine has its roots in many passages of Holy Writ. It is an integral part of the doctrine that deals with the Messianic time, as is seen in the constantly recurring expression, “shub shebut” or heshib shebut,” used both of Israel and of Judah (Jer. xxx, 7,1; Ezek. Xxxix. 24; Lam. Ii. 14; Hos. Vi. 11; Joel iv. 1 et al.). The Dispersion was deemed merely temporal: ‘The days come … that … I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof … and I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land” (Amos ix.

  • Catholic and Anti-Catholic Traditions in Russia*
    Religion, State & Society, Vol. 28, No. 1,2000 Catholic and Anti-Catholic Traditions in Russia* SERGEI FILATOV & L YUDMILA VORONTSOVA After an absence of almost 50 years, Catholicism once more exists on Russian soil. Despite the religious diversity of our society and the religious eclecticism of the majority of our contemporaries, no other religious confession appears to arouse such passionate emotions and often indeed outright hostility. Anti-Catholic intolerance cannot simply be explained in the context of a general intolerance of believers of other faiths. Russia now has Muslims, Buddhists and even Protestants, who have encountered difficulties mainly due to their missionary activity. It would seem that the phenomenon of Russian Catholicism today can be explained only if we understand the nature of the problem: what is Catholicism in the context of Russian spiritual and political culture and what does conversion to Catholicism mean to a Russian? In early years Russia was open to both Greek and Roman missionaries. At the end of the tenth century the adoption of one particular faith was not made on the basis of its dogma: the differences between Western and Eastern Christianity were simply beyond the understanding of the unsophisticated population of Ancient Rus', unversed as it was in questions of theology. The new faith was received on the basis of its cultural traditions and the attractiveness of its ceremonies. It was not so much the teaching of this faith which attracted, rather the appeal and 'beauty' of the ritual: indeed the cultural component was the determining factor in the attitude of the Russian people towards Catholicism.

Qualls The Russian Revolutions: The Impact and Limitations of Western Influence After the collapse of the Soviet Union, historians have again turned their attention to the birth of the first Communist state in hopes of understanding the place of the Soviet period in the longer sweep of Russian history. Was the USSR an aberration from or a consequence of Russian culture? Did the Soviet Union represent a retreat from westernizing trends in Russian history, or was the Bolshevik revolution a product of westernization? These are vexing questions that generate a great deal of debate. Some have argued that in the late nineteenth century Russia was developing a middle class, representative institutions, and an industrial economy that, while although not as advanced as those in Western Europe, were indications of potential movement in the direction of more open government, rule of law, free market capitalism. Only the Bolsheviks, influenced by an ideology imported, paradoxically, from the West, interrupted this path of Russian political and economic westernization.

  • THE ECONOMY of CANADA in the NINETEENTH CENTURY Marvin Mcinnis
    2 THE ECONOMY OF CANADA IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY marvin mcinnis FOUNDATIONS OF THE NINETEENTH- CENTURY CANADIAN ECONOMY For the economy of Canada it can be said that the nineteenth century came to an end in the mid-1890s. There is wide agreement among observers that a fundamental break occurred at about that time and that in the years thereafter Canadian economic development, industrialization, population growth, and territorial expansion quickened markedly. This has led economic historians to put a special emphasis on the particularly rapid economic expansion that occurred in the years after about 1896. That emphasis has been deceptive and has generated a perception that little of consequence was happening before 1896. W. W. Rostow was only reflecting a reasonable reading of what had been written about Canadian economic history when he declared the “take-off” in Canada to have occurred in the years between 1896 and 1913. That was undoubtedly a period of rapid growth and great transformation in the Canadian economy and is best considered as part of the twentieth-century experience. The break is usually thought to have occurred in the mid-1890s, but the most indicative data concerning the end of this period are drawn from the 1891 decennial census. By the time of the next census in 1901, major changes had begun to occur. It fits the available evidence best, then, to think of an early 1890s end to the nineteenth century. Some guidance to our reconsideration of Canadian economic devel- opment prior to the big discontinuity of the 1890s may be given by a brief review of what had been accomplished by the early years of that decade.

  • Blanqui’S Note Nov
    Biliana Kassabova History of Political Thought Workshop December 4, 2017 Blanqui’s note Nov. 23, 1848 Blanqui between Myth and Archives: Revolution, Dictatorship, and Education This piece, very much a work in progress, aims to make sense of the revolutionary ideas and actions of Louis-Auguste Blanqui. It complicates our ideas of political thought regarding revolution in the nineteenth century, by arguing that the binary of centralized versus popular revolution needs to be revised. It is part of a larger project on concepts of revolutionary leadership in France from the French Revolution of 1789 until the Paris Commune of 1871. Within this historical trajectory, Blanqui is an interpreter of 18th century ideas into 19th century contexts, a political thinker and actor who plays a key role in the various reformulations of the revolutionary tradition. 1848 does not enjoy a stellar reputation among historians of France. The revolution of February that year saw the overthrow of the last king of France, followed by the establishment of a new French republic. This republic, however, lasted for only three years, brought little and short-lived social change, remained rather conservative, though was also laden with bitter parliamentary strife, and ended through a coup d’état that inaugurated a new authoritarian régime, a Second Empire with Napoleon III at its head. To add insult to injury, even the attempts at establishing a viable parliamentary republican system were famously seen by political observers and participants from 2 almost all parts of the political spectrum as derivative, incompetent, and worse yet – laughable. “There have been more mischievous revolutionaries than those of 1848, but I doubt if there have been any stupider,”1 quipped Alexis de Tocqueville in his posthumously published Recollections.

  • Complaints and Disorders
    The medical system is strategic for women’s liberation. It is the guardian of reproductive technology – birth control, abortion, and the means for safe childbirth. It holds the promise of Complaints freedom from hundreds of unspoken fears and complaints that have handicapped women throughout history. When we demand AND control over our own bodies, we are making that demand above all to the medical system. It is the keeper of the keys. But the medical system is also strategic to women’s oppression. Medical science has been one of the most powerful sources of sexist ideology in our culture. Justifi cations for sexual Disorders discrimination – in education, in jobs, in public life – ultimately The Sexual Politics of Sickness rest on the one thing that differentiates women from men: their bodies. Theories of male superiority ultimately rest on biology. Medicine stands between biology and social policy, between the “mysterious” world of the laboratory and everyday life. It makes public interpretations of biological theory; it dispenses the medical fruits of scientifi c advances.
