“…Like the history of the Russian Empire in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, where the ‘scheme of Russian history’ gave way to the history of a composite state and multi‐ethnic imperial society, the revolution of 1917 resulted in decolonization and de‐Russification in history writing, moving the emphasis away from previously dominant narratives of social‐ or norm‐based revolution (Gerasimov et al ; Gerasimov et al ).…”

The article reassesses some of the recent historiographic developments in studies of the Russian Revolution and the collapse of the Russian Empire. In particular, it focusses on the role of nationalist politics in late Imperial Russia, in 1917, and in early Soviet politics. It also considers the end of the Russian Empire within the context of historiographical approaches to the collapse of other European empires. Based on these considerations, the article concludes that the place of nationalist politics in the Russian Revolution can be exaggerated.

The Science of Empire: Darwinism, Human Diversity, and Russian Physical Anthropology

Summary: The article explores deployment of the Darwinian narrative of the “natural history of humanity” in Russian physical anthropology in the late nineteenth to the early twentieth century. It traces two narratives developed by the leading Russian school of physical anthropology: one narrative advanced a universalist vision of collective scholarly enterprise working toward clarifying the missing links in the a priori accepted developmental evolutionary model. The other constructed a new language that undermined the idea of species/subspecies/races/nations/ as stable, externally bounded, and internally homogeneous units and attempted to rationalize imperial hybridity. The article's main focus is on the latter classificatory narrative, its relational methodology, and the protostructuralist units of comparison that it produced.
