Socialist Revolutionary Party

The Socialist Revolutionary Party was a political movement in Russia established in 1901, advocating for land redistribution to peasantry and promoting socialist ideals rooted in populism. It aimed to create a more equitable society by empowering rural communities and combining revolutionary change with democratic principles. The party organized itself with a focus on agrarian socialism, opposing both tsarist autocracy and socialist parties that favored industrial workers. It played a significant role during the early 20th century, particularly around the time of the Russian Revolution, representing a middle path that sought to balance revolutionary change with rural and grassroots interests.
