Russian National Income, 1885 1913

Focusing on the economic growth of the tsarist regime from 1885 to 1913, the analysis compares its performance with Soviet Russia and other industrialized nations. The author challenges prevailing historical views, revealing a more robust tsarist economy than previously believed, particularly in agriculture and the business cycle of the nineteenth century. This work offers a valuable reference point for understanding the distinctions between tsarist and Soviet economic performance during their respective eras.
