Drawing upon previously untapped provincial archives and a wealth of other neglected primary material, Stephen P. Frank offers a major reassessment of the interactions between peasantry and the state in the decades leading up to World War I. Viewing crime and punishment as contested metaphors about social order, his revisionist study documents the varied understandings of criminality and justice that underlay deep conflicts in Russian society, and it contrasts official and elite representations of rural criminality--and of peasants--with the realities of everyday crime at the village level. -- Provided by publisher OP - 352 CN - HV9960.R9 F7 1999eb SN - 9780520920811 SN - 0520920813 SN - 0585283524 SN - 9780585283524 SN - 9780520213418 SN - 0520213416 KW - Criminal justice, Administration of : Russia : History : 19th century.
