Abstract

The materials of archival documents first introduced into scientific circulation from the funds of the National Archive of Finland, the Russian State Archive of the Navy in St. Petersburg, publications in the periodical press of 1917 and memoir literature examined aspects of socio-political transformations that took place during the Russian revolution in the Russian troops placed on the territory of the former autonomous Grand Duchy of Finland. The article considers the ambiguously assessed manifestations of the "democratization" of army and naval life, as well as their influence on the public mood of officers, soldiers and sailors. The consequences of the transformational processes that developed in the Russian troops at the final stage of the First World War are shown, both for the combat effectiveness of land and sea units, and for the relationship between military personnel and the population of Finland.
