The Fate of Russia's First Federalization
Overview
The months between the February and October revolutions of 1917 witnessed an emergence of federalist thought, intellectual innovation, and internationalist coalition-building across imperial Russia. The onset of Russia's civil wars forced these projects for post-imperial order into exile, yet they found a surprising range of afterlives with other national governments and international organizations.
