Title | THE BLACK HUNDRED IN ODESSA (1905-1907) |
Summary | The thesis deals with history of the Russian right-wing monarchist parties in Odessa (the Russian empire) during 1905-1907. It presents their activities not as a haphazard collection of acts, but as a coherent system rooted into the ways they perceived a situation around. Thus, the thesis offers an analysis of Russian right-wing monarchist ideologists’ in Odessa ideas on a general situation in which the Russian Empire found itself at the early 20th century. That situation, they thought, brought into life the Russian right-wing monarchist parties themselves thereby determining their strategy. I understand by the latter a set of general basic principles to guide oneself in order to achieve broader goals. The thesis also provides an analysis of the Russian right-wing monarchist parties’ activities in Odessa through the prism of their understanding of the immediate circumstances in which they had to act. One of the most important characteristics of the latter was activities of the monarchists’ rivals, who appeared on the political scene of the city much earlier. The thesis shows that a considerable part of the monarchists’ actions was a reaction towards the revolutionaries’ activities and that the monarchists drew upon their rivals’ successful experience of working among the masses. Under the auspices of the local authorities’ they managed to achieve unprecedented successes in that field by using the same methods as the revolutionaries. |
