Criticism

Historians, including Mikhail Davydov and Boris Mironov, have engaged in polemics against Nefedov’s methodical evaluations of the standard of living in the Russian Empire, claiming that the standard of living was much higher in the Russian empire and that is was in fact not a cause of the Russian revolutions of 1917.
