| Summary: | This important new work discusses labor politics during the 1917 revolution. It examines a critical period in the evolution of the Russian labor movement - from the February revolution to mid-summer 1918 - during which the movement experienced a profound transformation, losing its pluralistic character and becoming essentially a centralized one-party institution. In interpreting labor politics, this study focuses on labor functionaries as a distinct group within the labor movement and traces the impact of their institutional agendas and group interests on labor policies. As a result, Dr. Shkliarevsky greatly enriches our understanding of a key issue in the shaping of the revolution. |
