Abstract

The article scrutinizes revolutionary processes and state-crafting in the ethnically diverse, “overdeveloped” imperial borderland which in 1918 became part of the Polish state. My goal is to deprovincialize and denationalize the narrative on the genesis of this state. I do so by viewing the 1905–1921 sequence as one of the possible variants of the “great imperial revolution”, a local recombination of global forces and regional power bids. A rapid democratization co-occurred with a consolidation of national community and ethnic conflict. As a result, institutionalized forms of conflict reflecting the balance of social forces were largely lacking. Only a peculiar sequence of events enabled the creation of a state, capable of consolidation and confrontation with alternative revolutionary scripts.
