Everyday Life in Revolutionary Russia: Working-Class Drinking and Taverns in St. Petersburg, 1900--1929
Abstract
dc:descriptionEven before the Bolshevik state came tumbling down in 1991, historians had begun to realize that the dynamics of the Russian revolution might be better understood if they devoted more attention to exploring the importance of 1917. This study contributes to the general reassessment of 1917 by focusing on ways in which the workers' revolution affected the everyday life of the individuals for whom it was intended. Drink provides a revealing view into the everyday life of Russia's early-twentieth century workers; after all, customs surrounding drink permeated virtually every facet of working-class life.
