Presentation by President of the Russian Historical Society S.E. Naryshkin

Аннотация

One century is the minimal period that can make the discussion of a major event, such as a revolution, impartial regardless of the political environment. Recent studies have led to the conclusion that the revolution should be considered as a single multistage process, from the tsar’s abdication to the Civil War. When the Great Russian Revolution of 1917–1922 is discussed, the attribute great is used to characterize the scale of its consequences.
