I. S. Ratkovsky is a specialist in the history of Russian revolutions and civil war, the history of state institutions in Russia of the twentieth century, candidate of historical sciences, associate professor of the Institute of History of St. Petersburg State University.
In his new book, the author illuminates the chronicle of white terror from 1917 to 1920. Analyzes how the models of white power were formed and developed, how whites interacted with a variety of counter -revolutionary and anti -Bolshevik movements. Based on archival materials, documentary sources and memoirs of leaders of the white movement, historian I. S. Ratkovsky answers the questions:
- How was the white movement formed and did he have a chance to turn the course of the Civil War?
- What was the punitive practice of the White movement, who personally bear responsibility for its implementation?
- Is it possible to say that the red terror was a response to the terror of white movement?
A number of materials that were previously not published were included in the collection: on the punitive practice of the Kolchakovsky regime (1918–1920) in Siberia and the Far East, on repressions in the North Caucasus, in the Volga region and other regions
