About this book
Russian history is presented through medieval, imperial and Soviet periods, with attention to the difficulties of building state authority across a vast territory. The editor's introduction stresses the gap between rulers' ambitions and their practical control. Drawing on historical scholarship and newly accessible archives, the volume examines economic development, government and society rather than treating political power as unlimited.
