  1. Education and Censorship Declan McKinstray

  2. Nature of the Problem The majority of Russia’s population lived in the cities. But most of those were working in factories or shops and had little or no education before the emancipation. The Tsarist regime did not let works of literature from other countries be used in schools or kept in universities. He did not allow for free press either.

  3. Details of the Reform The Tsar along with the emancipation of the serfs gave freedom in more than one way. He allowed the people of all classes go to school and get an education. The Tsar gave job opportunities when he allowed a free press and books from all over the world to be kept in universities and used in schools.

  4. Evidence of Success the people were more favorable towards the Tsar and his regime after the emancipation of the serfs. There were more educated people as schooling was available to more. The Tsar allowed literature from other countries such as works of both fiction and non-fiction.

  5. Evidence of Failure Not all of the peasantry could afford to pay for education. And eventually not as many people sent their children as it was still expensive. The Tsar eventually went back on his word and removed most of the books as well as disallowing free press.

  6. Overall Judgment The Tsar did well by offering a better education to everyone but at the same time failed to keep his word with the censorship of books and political meetings.
