Empire and National State. Pages of History
In the chapters of the work published here and devoted to Russian national-democratic movement in the beginning of the 20th century, we find a detailed analysis of the wide range of opinions of various groups of Russian national democrats regarding such issues as administrative and territorial division of the empire, problems of provinces (Poland, Finland, Transcaucasia, Central Asia) and national problems (Hebrew, Ukrainian, Galician and Russian). The attitude of national democrats to the uprising and strengthening of the Ukrainian nationalism (such trends as “ukrainstvo” and “mazepinstvo”), and the influence of Galicia (part of Austria-Hungary) on the development of this ideology are closely investigated here.
