Abstract

This article hypothesizes the existence of a Russian strand of historical political economy in the period 1870 to 1913, in parallel with the more famous German and Irish examples. To substantiate this claim the works of various pre-revolutionary Russian economists are surveyed as short case studies, including that of I.K. Babst, A.I. Chuprov, I.Kh. Ozerov and D.I. Mendeleev. Moreover various common themes are identified in their work and also in comparison with the work of established historical economists such as Roscher and Schmoller. The Bolshevik revolution in 1917 is then conceived as a point of rupture in the natural evolution of Russian economic theory.
