Russian Radical Right and the Legitimation of Violence, 1900-1940	The paper focuses on the issue of continuity and discontinuity in the legitimation of violence by the Russian Radical Right in 1900-1940. Radical Right emerged as a political movement in late Imperial Russia at the beginning of the 20th century. It was a heterogeneous group of parties and unions connected by the "orthodoxy, autocracy and nationality" ideology, usually known as the official Russian state ideology. During political and social upheavals, especially the first Russian revolution in 1905-1906, Radical Right tried to defend the conservative fundaments of the Russian state and social life by any means, even by advocating or using political violence. The verbal and physical violence, usually explained as a „self-defense“ was aimed at Jews, masons, liberals, and socialists, respectively, all groups defined as "enemies of Russia". Our crucial question is how far the legitimation of violence remained an integral part of Radical Right political theory and practice even in the post-revolutionary time, in exile.
