Recenzje

This ground-breaking book rethinks the history of Russia's revolutionaries through their lives in exile communities. Place mattered in their story: for inspiration, for encounters, for everyday radical practices. The book is a rich history of ideasDLfreedom, equality, community, and justice, and socialismDLbut as everyday practices rather than dreamy abstractions. Not least, this is magisterial research, written in an accessible and compelling manner.
