It is impossible to answer such a question in monosyllables. Of course, just say yes. If we are talking about bureaucracy, then modern bureaucratic language and decision-making traditions developed in the 19th century. Our modern ideas about modernization and industrialization go back to the image of the future that was relevant for a citizen of the Russian Empire in the 19th century. All the usual ideological trends - liberalism, socialism, conservatism - finally took shape in the 19th century. Finally, Russian culture, Russian language, Russian literature are products of the century before last. At least for this reason, the Russian Federation in its modern form is the legal successor of the Russian Empire.

However, the Russian Empire was still very different from modern Russia - and not only in size. This was a much more complex phenomenon. The Russian Empire was, in the full sense of the word, a multinational and multi-religious power. Russians did not make up the majority of the country's population (44%). There was a majority of Orthodox Christians, but not an overwhelming majority (about 70%, including Old Believers). The empire was complex. Many of its outskirts required a special management regime. Under such circumstances, there could not be a single legal space. Those legal norms by which the Kingdom of Poland lived (after the uprising of 1863-1864 - the Vistula provinces) dated back to Napoleonic times. In the Baltic provinces (the territories of modern Estonia and Latvia), the legislation of the times of Swedish rule partially remained. Finally, the estates lived in different legal dimensions. Thus, the peasantry was predominantly judged according to the norms of customary law, rarely encountering the crown court. The merchants and the Cossacks had their own bodies of self-government... The clergy and military personnel had their own courts. Russia was very different.

Secondly, Russia of the 19th century is distinguished by the presence of society - not in the sociological, but in the political scientific sense of the word, when society itself recognizes itself as such. When it is not a cog in a huge state machine, but claims to be self-sufficient. Such a society began to take shape in Russia at the end of the 18th century; during the 19th century it became more complex, increased in number, democratized and demanded more and more for itself and for the country. At first it was very small in number, then it made up only a few percent of the Russian population, but nevertheless these were the percentages that turned out to be capable of self-organization. These were the leaders of the zemstvo, city government, journalists, and finally, the increasingly numerous readers of periodicals. It is difficult to say whether there was a civil society in the Russian Empire, but its elements undoubtedly took place. This is a fundamental difference between the long 19th century, which ended in 1917.

Thirdly, the Russian Empire of the early twentieth century is a dynamically developing country, and from various points of view. Usually in this regard they talk about economics. This is true because in the 1910s. Russia ranked first in terms of growth rates. The demographic factor is no less significant. According to the results of the 1897 census, the population of Russia was more than 126 million people, and by 1914, according to minimal estimates, about 166.5 million. During this relatively short period of time, the population of Russia increased by 40 million people. This created both opportunities and difficulties. Russia is a very young country. A significant part of its population were children and adolescents who were dependent on their parents. A growing population, among other things, means a shrinking peasant allotment. The growing population is a contradiction within the community, when most often it was not rich and poor peasants who clashed, but older and younger representatives of the rural “world”. This is a big challenge during the First World War, when it is very difficult to resolve the question: who will you mobilize into the army, since a significant part of the population were those who were not subject to conscription? In addition, this left an imprint on the political life of Russia, because young people played a huge role in the activities of radical left-wing socialist parties. High school students, students, and simply students from various educational institutions formed the core of these organizations. Russian politics at the beginning of the 20th century was largely made by young people.

Finally, Russia at the beginning of the 20th century is a very fashionable country. People loved to talk about Russia, write plays, and stage performances in Western Europe and North America. Russian ballet, Russian music, painting, literature - this is what they continue to talk about to this day. But at that time it was modern, “current” art, perceived throughout Europe as something fundamentally new, like a breath of fresh air. This also applies to Russian science. It is enough to recall the achievements of Russian physiology of that time: the works of Mechnikov, Pavlov, Bekhterev...

All this testifies to the amazing dynamics of growth, which could be converted into a variety of phenomena - both progress and revolution.

Modern and archaic at the turn of the century

In 1897, the first All-Russian census took place. More than 126 million subjects of the Russian Empire and, of course, Emperor Nicholas II himself took part in it. He had to indicate his occupation on the census form. Without thinking twice, the sovereign wrote a phrase that was later included in textbooks and monographs: “Master of the Russian land.” Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, in turn, was called the “mistress” of Russia. There is no doubt that this is exactly how the royal couple perceived themselves. This formula was not accidental.

Starting from the second third of the 19th century. many Russian thinkers of the Slavophile persuasion wrote about the uniqueness of the Russian political system, which had no analogues in Western Europe. In their opinion, autocracy is not Western absolutism, which assumed the omnipotence of the bureaucracy. At the same time, autocracy is not an eastern tyranny. Unlike the Asian despots, the power of the Russian autocrat was limited - by his conscience and faith. He had to rule, relying not on mechanical force, but on the unconditional support of the people, who saw (or should have seen) strong royal power as a guarantee of their well-being. It seemed to the Slavophiles that the Russian Tsar, unlike the Western European minister or deputy, did not think about his personal interests or benefits for his circle, he was worried about the aspirations of the masses, and especially his representatives who were most in need. This was explained by the fact that no one chose the sovereign; he represented not someone individually, but everyone together. In addition, the king did not have his own private interests: all of them were satisfied in one way or another at the time of his accession to the throne. In essence, he needed nothing. He had unlimited power and untold wealth. His only ambition is to work for the good of his people.

Of course, the Slavophiles had complaints against the ruling elite. They believed that the ideal structure of autocracy was subject to erosion. It increasingly resembled Western European absolutism. The blame lay, first of all, with Peter the Great, who relied on bureaucracy and created a “mediastinum” between the monarch and the people. Russia was faced with the task of returning to genuine autocracy, to the times of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich. For this purpose, different ways were proposed: for example, the revival of zemstvo councils - the living embodiment of the unity of the king and the “land” (that is, the people, society).

In general, the Slavophiles belonged to the opposition: they criticized the existing regime and called for political changes. It is quite natural that the powers that be were rather skeptical and suspicious of them. However, the utopia of a unique Russian kingdom created by the Slavophiles captured the minds of many. As a result, it was from the Slavophile “cubes” that the mythology of power was formed, in which the tsars themselves believed. Both Alexander III and Nicholas II treated Russian antiquity with great respect, idealized it, and dreamed of reviving the lost “golden age.” And these were not just words. They were embodied in symbols and images. Monarchs patronized construction in the old Russian style. Knowing this, architects increasingly imitated the buildings of pre-Petrine Rus'. Icon painters copied samples from the 16th–17th centuries. It was a fashion imposed from the heights of the throne, which reflected a passionate desire to grab hold of the past and not accidentally slip into the future. According to the memoirs of Protopresbyter G.I. Shavelsky, in the imperial Fedorov Cathedral in Tsarskoe Selo, some icons were even striking in their ugliness, since they were copied from by no means the best medieval originals. “For greater resemblance to the ancient ones, some icons are painted on old, rotten boards... And all the icon painting, all the decoration of the cathedral, which did not give space to any of the works of modern great masters of church art - Vasnetsov, Nesterov, etc. - seems to be some kind of dissonance for our time."

The imperial family in every possible way, sometimes deliberately, emphasized their religiosity. Only in the bedroom of the Tsarskoe Selo Alexander Palace, where the couple of the last Russian Tsar mainly lived, there were 800 icons. Finally, it was possible to try to revive the 17th century, at least temporarily. In 1903, Nicholas II organized a costume ball in the Winter Palace, obliging his subjects to dress in outfits from the time of Alexei Mikhailovich. It might seem to some that this is really the 17th century.

However, the twentieth century was coming. For the first time in a long time, human life changed radically. Now it was possible to take a new look at time and space. Now it is difficult to realize how much railway construction changed the world. It accelerated life, abolished old problems, created new ones, contributed to the growth of previously sparsely populated towns and at the same time the decline of famous centers. According to the outstanding French historian F. Braudel, only thanks to the railway a united France, in the full sense of the word, arose. This applies even more to Russia. Then, at the end of the 19th century, the construction of railways in the country acquired an impressive scale: in 1893–1897. in Russia they laid 2–2.5 thousand km per year. J. Verne devoted an entire novel to this, “Claudius Bombarnac,” published in 1892.

By the end of the 19th century. We are already used to the railways. The amazing fears of the first half of the century are a thing of the past. Gradually, the city dweller got used to the car. By 1900, there were already about 90 buses with internal combustion engines in St. Petersburg. While mastering space, man began to think about the sky. In 1880, the Russian Aeronautics Society was founded. In 1893–1894 The first airship in Russia was built in the capital. True, his tests ended unsuccessfully. Information acquired even greater speed than humans. Life included radio, telephone, telegraph. In 1881, telephone exchanges were built in St. Petersburg, Moscow, Odessa, Riga and Warsaw. The Moscow – St. Petersburg telephone line was the longest in the world (660 km). At the beginning of the 20th century. she handled more than 200 negotiations daily. Already in 1882, the opera “Rusalka” from the Mariinsky Theater was broadcast via telephone line in St. Petersburg. Society believed in technological progress and expected a real miracle from it. “Soon we will see each other along the wire at a distance of hundreds and thousands of miles!” – stated one of the heroes of A.I. Kuprin’s story “Moloch”. During these years, many seemingly unrealistic fantasies came true and became part of everyday life. So, on March 12, 1896, the world's first radiogram arrived at the physics office of St. Petersburg University. In the same year, films by the Lumiere brothers were shown in Russia for the first time. At the same time, amateur films began to be made. In 1903–1904 The first cinemas appeared in Russia. Electric lighting came to city streets. In the early 1890s. in St. Petersburg there were 80 electric lamps, and in 1903 there were already about 3000.

The city landscape also changed. Moscow in this regard was ahead of the entire empire, including the capital. Here at the turn of the 1880–1890s. “skyscrapers, multi-storey buildings with a lot of apartments began to grow here and there, and on Devichye Pole, as if by a wave of a magic wand, a whole town of superbly organized university clinics spread out (all with donations from large Moscow merchants), then telephones, cars and trams came,” – wrote historian Alexander Kiesewetter.

Naturally, technological progress also affected the imperial family. In 1886, electricity appeared in the Anichkov Palace. In 1887, the Peterhof Palace was electrified. Nicholas II was very interested in technical innovations. He loved cars and was into photography (though the emperor did not like telephone communications). The royal life changed, but the royal power remained as if the same.

Autocracy has been the supporting basis of the political regime in Russia for many centuries. The Russian emperor was not only the sole head of state, but he also headed the church. His person was sacred. The legitimacy of the government was not questioned. The very concept of “autocracy” once again recalled the Byzantine origins of Russian power.

And yet, when reproducing these ideological formulas, we must keep in mind that they are of relatively late origin. In reality, the Byzantine emperor, in terms of his powers and position in the political system, did not closely resemble the Russian autocrat. Finally, autocracy has continually changed throughout its long history. At the end of the 15th century. the title “autocrat” emphasized the foreign policy independence of the Moscow state. At the end of the 19th century, contrary to all Slavophile constructions, there was unlimited power of the sovereign.

In recent years, a number of works have been published on the pre-revolutionary history of Russia, clearly showing how in the eyes of contemporaries - people of different ideological and political views - the country was changing, the life of its cities was changing, and the life of the capital and the provinces was acquiring new shades. Perhaps this can be called one of the most important trends in the current understanding of the Great Russian Revolution - the desire to restore the context of the revolutionary crisis, to peer into the changing everyday life of Russia, which stood on the threshold of great upheavals.

It is clear that we, historians, found it interesting to translate these processes of change into a specific conversation, supported by statistical information that had accumulated back then, at the beginning of the twentieth century. Moreover, it seemed important to us to try to map the results of these processes for special clarity, maximally visualizing quantitative information for its subsequent qualitative interpretation. And do this in the form of maps, diagrams, diagrams... And, if possible, use the genre of infographics, which, by the way, was already being done then and is not a new invention of the computer era. It is no coincidence that we named the publication “Russia on the eve of great upheavals.” Socio-economic atlas 1906-1914". Let me emphasize: it’s an atlas. This form of presenting information - an atlas of political history - gave us the opportunity to show Russia in all the originality of its regions, with different rates of their development.

And this diversity of the resulting picture turned out to be extremely important in order to understand what the country was like at the beginning of the “century of wars and revolutions”, and how exactly the “difference in speed” in its development influenced the level of stability in society and the tasks of public administration on a large scale all empires.

And yet, it was important for us to use statistics that, as a rule, researchers did not use. And this is an interesting set of materials that deserves to be introduced into scientific circulation - appendices to the verbatim reports of the State Duma. It contains explanatory notes for bills, the texts of which are very informative. In general, the level of work of all structures that served the then Russian parliament, and the quality of information processing, were very high, as evidenced by these little-known sources. The information obtained from them clearly shows how the social environment and demographics were changing, how the economy and political life were developing on the eve of the revolution. In our science, these changes have not yet been fully studied.

All this wealth of information, of course, does not eliminate the question of the causes of the revolution, but puts it on a fundamentally new plane. Historians can no longer get away with stock phrases about the “systemic crisis” that the country was experiencing. And the very term “crisis” as applied to that situation requires decoding. So that we don’t get, as often happens in our historiography, a picture of “casting clouds” and the concentration of some “evil” that ultimately destroyed the former Russia. It must be taken into account that a crisis can have many forms of manifestation, have its own specificity and, moreover, be a stage in the process of development, the formation of a new one, without at all ending in a “lethal outcome” for the previous phase of development. At the same time, a crisis is always a challenge, and the fate of society depends on whether it accepts this challenge or not.

Since the time of the Great French Revolution and Tocqueville’s understanding of it, it has become clear that revolutions do not occur when the situation in society is constantly deteriorating, but when a temporary rise is followed by a decline, which, in contrast, is especially painful for contemporaries. This pattern, when applied to Russia, requires more in-depth, substantive research. Understanding the revolutionary era works in this direction - through statistical substantiation of the patterns of society’s entry into it. Regarding the actual political history of the Revolution, we should note the productivity of interest in such topics as changes in the political culture of society, changes in the “rules of the game” in politics, transformation of political institutions...

The International Conference “The Great Russian Revolution of 1917: One Hundred Years of Study”, held in October at the IRI RAS site, clearly demonstrated the productivity of the emerging trend towards a kind of “new objectivity” and once again confirmed: new knowledge appears only when new questions are posed.
