The Social Democracy

The imperial bureaucracy clunked along, making a hash of everything and lashing outt even the most constructive criticism. Thanks to that bureaucracys reactionary sense of self preservation, democrats and liberals were not treated much differently than the most radical revolutionary communists. All of this was plain as day, but you could not say anything about it. You just had to sit silently. We now also find pyotr Struv completing his ideological journey from social democrat to legal liberal.
