AGRARIAN REFORM IN RUSSIA IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY AND ITS IMPACT ON THE RUSSIAN ECONOMY

Journal Title: FBIM Transactions - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 2

Abstract

With the absolute right, we can say that the nineteenth century for Russia represents a period enactment of crucial laws – reforms with only one goal and that is to modernize the sleeping Russian Empire. Although Russia during this period was a feudal state, the nobility still has the final word as serfs bear the yoke of progress. Western European countries are largely in the process of industrialization while the Russian Empire, with a significant role in world events of the nineteenth century, retains serfdom and thereby slows its further progress. Thanks to its natural resources, Russia survives by supplying Western European industry with raw materials. Yet that was not enough, Russia has begun increasingly economically lagging Western European countries what would later create problems and shake the Empire. Next date that marked Russian history is 1861. year of the abolition of serfdom in Russia and this will be the central subject of analysis in this work. This work represents an analysis of the period in which Russia started to wake up from their sleep, the period of the reign of the most progressive Russian Tsar Alexander II Romanov and above all, a period in which everything is reduced to one of Hamlet's question, to deteriorate or stand. Also, we analyze the situation of the Russian economy today and its road to survival under the sanctions of a part of the international community.
