THE CHANGE OF SPIRITUALITY OF RUSSIAN PEASANTS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE STATE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
The article focuses on the change in spirituality of Russian peasants at the beginning of the twentieth century under the influence of the state. The Stolypin reform of the state agrarian policy was intended to promote the formation of the peasantry imbued with the idea of property. However, the inconsistency in the implementation of the reform program, antipossesive specificity of the peasant community, the World War and the Revolution did not enable to give opportunities for the development of conscience of ownership of the peasants. Their inadequate behavior in the Big Society turned into anti-government mood. As a result, the peasant masses together with the workers overthrew the state.
