Russian Capitalism. Exceptionalism versus Global Labour-Intensive Path, 1700-1914
Résumé
After reviewing the historiography of the Russian economic path, this chapter discusses the period running from the early eighteenth century to the abolition of serfdom (1861) and World War I; it argues that Russian economic dynamics were more important than is usually held in terms of rate of growth, that they were labour-intensive and mostly based on modernizing peasants and landlords. The problem was that these solutions were eventually compatible with the first, but not the second industrial revolution.
