A bold meditation on faith, justice, and the Russian intelligentsia that questions how society treats capital punishment and what it means to be modern Russia.

This collection gathers critical reflection on religion, politics, and moral responsibility. It surveys Russia’s intellectual landscape—from Peter the Great to Dostoevsky and Tolstoy—asking how ideas shape action, culture, and the fate of a nation. The book uses stirring historical and literary examples to explore what it means to be free, responsible, and humane in a turbulent era.

Engaging essays that connect faith, law, and national identity.
Characterful voices from Russia’s literary and intellectual tradition.
Critiques of capital punishment and its impact on society’s moral life.
Thoughtful questions about reform, liberty, and the future of Russia.

Ideal for readers drawn to philosophy, history, and literary criticism, especially those curious about Russia’s intelligentsia and its search for justice.

Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

To say that the world to-day is passing through the most crucial period of all history is, of course, a commonplace; but the fact will, none the less, bear constant reiteration. Everything is seething and in a turmoil; there are wars and rumors of wars; the world is ill and bewildered. Yet, though there are many men crying in this wilderness how many are there who are true prophets; and how many of these are not merely crying, but also pointing a way out of the wilderness? It is little short of astonishing to see how many of the warnings in The Menace of the Mob have come true. There is scarce a line where a pin would not prick upon a prophecy fulfilled. A nd, were we to use it as a volume for sortes there is scarce a line that is not pregnant with other forewarnings, still more dire. There shall be a slaughter the like of which has never been before to which the Great World War is, perhaps, as but the blossom to the fruit.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the historical and philosophical origins of the menace posed by the mob in modern society, with a particular focus on its potential for tyranny and the ways in which it can be overcome. By examining classic works by Mill, Hertzen, Dostoevsky, and others, the author traces the rise of mob mentality and bourgeois complacency to the decline of spirituality and metaphysical certainty within Western culture. The author argues that the only way to truly combat this menace is through a profound renewal of spiritual and communal values, which could potentially emerge from within the younger generation of Russians, who despite their flaws represent a yearning for a better world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781440086670_0
