First Russian Revolution 1917

The Mensheviks were losing popularity, and the masses turned to the Bolsheviks to lead Russia and do what they proclaimed, which was Lenin 's 4 goals in his speech. During October, Lenin made speeches and argued to the Central Committee to seize power in Russia. Lenin and the Bolsheviks now had enough support to rule Russia and overthrow the government. At first they had only the people, but now they also had large parts of the army to support them. After a vote, the Central Committee finally agreed to seize power and set up The Military Revolutionary Committee, lead by Leon Trotsky.

foreign and domestic policies because it scared Americans and caused tension within the country and worldwide, leading to a lack of trust within the country. The second Red Scare, propaganda, Russian growth in power, nuclear tension, and the Hollywood Ten were all parts of the war that damaged American policies. Civilians lost trust between one another and within the government. Communism intimidated many people, and the Cold War made it appear as though it would soon take over the world. However, Truman and Eisenhower made it evident that the United States was fighting for innocent civilians worldwide, but they could not promise a steady government or country while the tension exists with Russia, but the nation is doing what they must(Document C).

The party had planned out their approach towards cinema, enforcement in terms of content came much later and as Richard Taylor claims, that Lunachasky and Lenin preferred a more natural and gradual approach.

Other people like Alexander Bogdanov, wanted to create a new proletarian cultural movement called Proletkult. This movement rejected all bourgeois art and was initially accepted by Lenin. It had 400,000 members in 300

The video goes over the important events of the war, from the famous Paul Revere’s midnight ride to the capture of Fort Ticonderoga. The early stages of the rebellion changed the militiamen for the best. They were once thought to be an unorganized and disgusting group men who only complained about taxes and the power of the Crown. They soon realized that this fight was more than they thought they could handle. Rebellion to Revolution describes the process of the Revolution and how America became a

Another silly thing all the founding fathers missed in the Articles is that the continental congress couldn’t enforce any laws. Which in so many words meant that congress could make all the laws they wanted but none of the states had to follow it due to the state government having much more power than the federal government. All the flaws in the Articles in confederation had made many things happen such as Shay’s rebellion and of course the adaptation of our new government which took ten months for the first nine states to ratify the rest of course came one by

Most of the population disagreed with both of the policies, however, the benefits and the positive effects outweighed for many. War Communism had a significant impact on the peasantry and the proletariat, it was extremely unpopular and not successful enough to continue. It has been suggested that War Communism was an attempt by the Bolsheviks to go straight to socialism, it is more likely that it was a reaction to wartime conditions, justified by ideological position. The effect of War Communism on the proletariat was immense, Lenin nationalised businesses to place the economy on a war footing. All industries came under direct control of the state, managers were forced to stay in their positions and private trades were banned.

Both have had workers protest to a palace, in France there was the March of Versailles to the Palace of Versailles, and in Russia there was Bloody Sunday where workers stormed the Winter Palace. They both had a cluster of riots because of the increasing price of bread. A few differences between the French Revolution and the Russian Revolution’s radical uprisings are during the French Revolution, France declared war on Austria, and Prussia joined Austria, while during the Russian Revolution, Russia had a civil war. There were more panicked uprisings during the French Revolution because of rumors and the lack of technology for

The Russian Revolution was caused by many things. Some of the causes were long term and others were short term. The Civil War and the First World War also contributed to causing the Revolution. In all, their are many causes of the Russian Revolution.

Talking about Russia during the 20th century, people think about revolution. Before that, ethnic conflicts were usually resolved by wars. Yet after the 17th century, revolution gradually appears. Russia revolution during 1917 to 1926 brought up a brand new political system, established the first socialist country. In addition brought huge progress on Russia subsequent development.

After the success of their revolution in Russia, the leaders of that revolution invited workers in the United States to up rise against their political and economic system in the US. Nonetheless, American workers ignored this invitation, instead they formed unions to advocate for them. This isolationist policies of the United States would continue until World War 2

Congress wrote up laws to punish the rebels but because of the Article of Confederation, congress could not raise up an army so that meant that federal government could not stop the rebellion. The government should have come together soon after this and made the decision to make better laws for the government to control the people. I can see why the people rebelled but it was originally the peoples fault for not helping the government fund the war but it was also the government fault for not thinking about all the scenarios before making the law. The rebellion then went on until the state of Massachusetts made up an army and fought Shay’s Rebellion.

In the first Red Scare of 1919-1920, the government was reacting to the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 and the heightened nationalism of World War 1. The government feared the communist movement gaining momentum in this country after the unrest of workers strikes in several

The farmers had experienced so much, and taxes had affected them profoundly to the point where they wanted to overthrow the government in control. In order to do this they needed to fight for change, so at first, they began handing out petitions for paper cash, bring down taxes and judicial reforms. This was the initial step of building up another kind of government. However, there were no signs of modification that had been executed by the government, so farmers had chosen to arrange a new plan. The plan was to just sit outside of a variety of courts and wait until they would close everything down.

They collectively boycotted British made goods and protested the Kings’ Acts. King George had been monitoring the rising rebellion over the years. Trying to avoid setting off a full blown rebellion he lowered the taxes, but still refused to completely eradicate them. He refused to give the colonists representation in the Parliament as well, taking away any chance they could stand up and protect themselves from the government. The colonists were enraged with the British government; “No taxation without representation!”
