The absence of a state-based counterbalance to the despotism (Despotism is a form of government in which a single entity rules with absolute power.) of the Tsar; the isolation and fragility of liberal civil society; the backwardness and violence of the Russian village that drove so many peasants to go and seek a better life in the industrial towns; and the strange fanaticism of the Russian radical intelligentsia. source: A peoples Tragedy
