- Abstract
- The article considers two approaches to explaining the role of the Russian revolution of 1917 in the processes of modernization of the country, outlined in the discussion on the pages of the magazine “Socis”. Despite all the differences in these approaches, the Marxist theory, which reflects the views of the October revolution as the beginning of radical transformations, and the modern liberal-conservative concept, which believes that the revolution, on the contrary, interrupted Russian modernization, they are United by the desire to rely on the empirical material of historical sociology. This is the main positive result of the discussion. Author the author offers an explanation of the reasons for the Russian revolution of 1917 as a natural result of a specific version of the “elite” type of modernization initiated by the reform of 1861.
