Yuly Martov

Russian politician (1873–1923)

Yuly Martov is remembered in public life for work that changed what came after it.

The record lists Yuly Martov as Russian politician (1873–1923).

Yuly Martov was born at Constantinople in 1873. His recorded nationality is the Russian Empire. He was educated at Saint Petersburg State University.

Around the turn of the twentieth century, national institutions, mass media and mass politics changed both the scale of a career and its risks.

The record gives his occupations as politician and opinion journalist.

Power is judged twice: once by contemporaries who felt it, and again by historians who did not.

Working from the Russian Empire shaped what was possible - the audiences within reach, the institutions that would have him, the language the work first appeared in.

Yuly Martov died in 1923 at the age of 50. The work outlived the arguments around it.
