Book excerpt: Russian Rightists and the Revolution of 1905 examines the emergence of right-wing organizations in Russia during the political crisis of 1905SH1907. In this comprehensive study of rightist activity throughout the country, Professor Rawson demonstrates how the rightists attempted to resolve the impasse between autocracy and constitutionalism that Russia had reached by the end of 1905. He concludes that the rightist organizations mobilized a substantial segment of public sentiment and helped induce the autocracy to reassert its authority.
