The Russian Factory in the Nineteenth Century is a book by Mikhail Tugan-Baranovsky[1] originally published in Russian in 1898. For this he was awarded his doctorate by Moscow University.[2] It was republished in Russia several times, running to three editions and two reprints by 1928. John P. McKay regarded the book as an "all-time outstanding contributions to Russian economic history, and to economic history in general".[3] Tugan-Baranovsky was a Legal Marxist, and in opposition to the populist narodniks, he argued that the Russian Empire far from being able to avoid going through a capitalist stage of development, had already experienced substantial capitalist development.[3]
