About the book: 2022 / "State power rests on the unity of spiritual self-awareness between the people and the government. The people, in unity with the state, can concede a lot and give it to state power,” wrote K.P. Pobedonostsev (1827 - 1907), the main ideologist of the “protective autocracy”, the “gray cardinal” under Alexander III and the mentor of Nicholas II. “The Russian soul is inseparably linked with the autocracy and the Church,” he argued, sharply criticizing the Western political system and democracy and culture. The influence of the West is destructive “for unfortunate Russia, slandered by foreign lies.” “It’s painful and bitter to think that in the Russian land there were and are people who dream of introducing this lie to us,” said Pobedonostsev. To save the country, he proposed not to allow “the ghost of freedom, the disastrous confusion of opinions” into it, and to build a policy on Russian distinctive features of life. His articles are about this, which are given in this book. The publishing layout of the book is saved in PDF A4 format.
