Rieber, Alfred, Merchants and Entrepreneurs in Imperial Russia, University of North Carolina Press, Chapel Hill 1982
Αυτό το βιβλίο αναλύει τη διαδικασία μέσα από την οποία η Ρωσία εξελίχθηκε σε καπιταλιστική οικονομία και εκκίνησε ένα τεράστιο πλάνο εκβιομηχάνισης δίχως την ανάδυση μιας ώριμης αστικής τάξης. Το βασικό συμπέρασμα που προκύπτει είναι ότι η μοίρα των Ρώσων εμπόρων και βιομηχάνων ήταν αποτέλεσμα του ευρύτερου κοινωνικού κατακερματισμού της Ρωσίας την παραμονή του Α΄Παγκοσμίου πολέμου./This book analyzes how Russia developed into a capitalist economy and launched a major industrialization without giving rise to a mature bourgeoisie. The main conclusion that emerges is that the fate of the Russian merchants and industrialists was part of a larger social fragmentation in Russia on the eve of World War I.
Roosa, Ruth AmEnde, Russian Industrialists in an Era of Revolution: The Association of Industry and Trade, 1906-1917, M.E. Sharpe, Armonk, N.Y. and London 1997
The present study focuses on the most important business organization in imperial Russia. the Association of Industry and Trade, the nerve center of Russian capitalism in the years between the revolutions of 1905 and 1917. The book focuses on the analysis of the Association's policy positions on Russian economic development. Of particular interest are the insights the study affords into the peculiarities of Russian business -- including the operation of semi-monopolistic syndicates and the role of imported capital, banks, and the autocratic state.

Αυτό το βιβλίο εστιάζει στις δυτικές επαρχίες της Ρωσίας και το βασίλειο της Πολωνίας κατά τη περίοδο της ανόδου του εθνικισμού και αποκαλύπτει ότι η ρώσικη κυβέρνηση ακόμη και στην περίοδο της ακμής της δεν συμβιβάστηκε με το εθνικό ζήτημα/Taking an in-depth look at Russia's Western Provinces and the Kingdom of Poland during an era of intensifying national feeling, this text shows that the Russian government, even at the height of its empire, never came to terms with the question of nationality.
Westwood, J. N. (ed), Endurance and Endeavour. Russian History 1812-2001, 5th ed., Oxforf University Press, New Jersey 2002
In Russia, both rulers and ruled have long endeavoured to transform their country, each in their own forcible way. Their efforts never quite seemed to bring the results hoped for, and despite reform and revolution some things have changed very little. This book sets out to relate Russian tradition and circumstances to the events of history.
Wirtschafter, Elise Kimerling, Russia's Age of Serfdom 1649-1861, Blackwell, Oxford 2008
Russia’s Age of Serfdom 1649-1861 offers a broad interpretive history of the Russian Empire from the time of serfdom’s codification until its abolition following the Crimean War. It considers the institution of serfdom, official social categories, and Russia’s development as a country of peasants ruled by nobles, military commanders, and civil servants and the reality of absolute monarchy in Russia, with special emphasis on the mobilization of human and material resources, the search for regular government, and the persistence of personal-moral forms of authority.
