Stanisław Grabski’s Socio-Psychological Study of Revolution: A Sociological and Political Science Perspective

Abstract

The aim of this article is to analyze and evaluate Stanisław Grabski’s socio-psychological concepts concerning the Russian Revolution of 1917. Affiliated with the National Political Camp and the Jan Kazimierz University in Lviv, the scholar and politician left behind a substantial and valuable academic legacy, including a publication on the revolution in Bolshevik Russia. This work, partly journalistic in character, was written as an attempt to understand and interpret the events witnessed by the author and to situate them within a broader historical and sociological context. The present article is divided into three main parts forming an integral whole: the first discusses the causes of the revolution, the second its course, and the third its consequences.
