Section A
Answer Question 01.
Extract A
In the chaos of October 1905, Nicholas promised Russia a government that was
constitutional in character. Although the right to vote was still restricted, there was an
elected Duma and individuals could meet and organise themselves openly, as well as take
an active role in political life. The first Duma held fairly moderate views and the second
even more so. By 1907 order had been restored and between 1907 and 1914 Russia 5
enjoyed a period of political calm during which wounds began to heal. The process of
modernisation and industrialisation resumed its course and the government took steps to
change the country’s agrarian structure. Intellectual and cultural life revived. The period
was one of dazzling creativity in many areas.
Adapted from M Raeff, Understanding Imperial Russia, 1984
Extract B
After the high hopes of 1905, the following years of Duma government proved a
disappointment to the reformers. Confusion reigned at the centre of government.
Muddled thinking and backward-looking influences overshadowed any positive
developments, bringing much dissatisfaction. The projects prepared for the second Duma
by Stolypin never became law in their original form, or failed altogether because there
5
was no commitment to reform on the part of the Tsar, his ministers or the members of the
State Council. Anti-liberal forces and the right wing of the Duma held out against change.
The Lena massacre, the Rasputin scandal and the dismissals and suspensions of
university professors and students deepened the impression of a regime which lacked
wisdom and firm control.
