It is widely accepted that Russia's failure in the Great War derived from the fact that its peasants were not "citizens." Peasants remained isolated and particularistic, in part because Russia's elites had failed to integrate them politically or culturally into anything resembling a "nation." When Russian peasants dreamed, it was not as members of an "imagined community" but as peasants, with their own agenda of land and local power and in their own language and cultural codes. As a result, Russia did not represent a "nation at arms," and most peasants lacked deep commitment to or understanding of their country's war effort
