“Mutiny amid Repression: Russian Soldiers in the Revolution of 1905–1906”
The mutinies are listed by date of commencement: some could not be dated precisely; a few have been placed somewhat arbitrarily in a half-month period (and are so identified). In some cases the units involved in mutinies have been identified from the unit listings in Kratkoe raspisanie sukhoputnykh voisk and MacBean, Handbook of the Russian Army. Sources have been kept to the minimum necessary to identify the principal characteristics of and participants in the mutiny; other sources are available on almost all the mutinies.
The mutinies have been coded to indicate how they began (0-9) and ended (10-18), and to identify their other principal characteristics (21-25). Absence of a notation for a given characteristic (e.g., the presentation of demands, or attacks on officers) may only mean that the surviving evidence is too slender to yield the details of a mutiny.
o—the way in which mutiny began is unknown. 1—soldiers began mutiny without provocation. 2—information about other mutinies triggered mutiny. 3— mutiny began when officers arrested soldiers, or were about to do so, or (in a very few cases) did violence to soldiers. 4—soldiers began mutiny when officers attempted to impose restrictions on their movements or behavior, for instance (most frequently) attempting to prevent or disperse soldier meetings. 5—mutiny began when soldiers disobeyed a routine order (which may mean that they had plotted mutiny beforehand, though in most cases that appears not to have been the case). 6—mutiny began with a conflict over the money due soldiers, the equipment issue, food (food riots themselves have not been counted as mutiny), and so forth. 7—mutiny began with an altercation between soldiers and civilians. 8—revolutionary military organizations organized mutiny. 9—mutiny began with a fight between soldiers of different units. Many mutinies had no single cause, and in some cases the cause could reasonably be changed (e.g., the trigger for the Potemkin mutiny might be considered a conflict over food rather than the arrest of the sailors who protested). The number of mutinies whose origin is obscure is large, the likelihood that incomplete evidence has led to misidentification of origins in a few others equally great.
10—there is no information on how the mutiny ended. 11—mutiny ended when soldiers won concessions. 12—mutiny subsided without soldiers winning concessions or officers taking action against them. 13—mutiny ended when soldiers won concessions, but officers carried out arrests shortly thereafter. 14— mutiny subsided, arrests were made shortly afterwards (but soldiers ended their mutiny without threat of arrest). 15—arrests (without the assistance of military force) brought mutiny to an end. 16—mutiny ended when a reliable unit was drawn up against mutineers. 17—mutiny ended in an exchange of gunfire between reliable and mutinous troops. 18—mutiny ended when the unit was transferred. 18a—the unit transferred also won concessions.
21—reserves played a decisive role in the mutiny. 22—mutineers presented a set of demands. 22a—some of the demands were political. 22ad—some of the demands involved the Duma. 23—mutiny had an identifiably political element. 23a—mutineers refused to repress workers or peasants. 23b—mutineers organized a political demonstration. 23c—mutineers refused to replace striking workers, or struck along with the workers. 23d—mutineers dispatched a nakaz to the Duma. 23e—mutineers discussed and promised to support the Duma. (To these political mutinies should be added those coded 22a, 22ad; political characteristics have not been systematically identified for 1905, because so many mutinies were linked directly to the publication of the October Manifesto: the politics in these mutinies involved the soldiers’ assumptions rather than their convictions.) 24—the mutiny involved violence. 24a—mutineers attacked officers, NCOs, or (in a few cases in 1906) police. 24b—mutineers did violence to their barracks or other property. 24c—mutineers fired their weapons (often only in the air). (To these violent mutinies should be added those coded 17.) 25— mutineers held a march.
There is a different list of 195 mutinies, October-December 1905, in Petrov, Ocherki, pp. 387-96. Many of the disturbances Petrov counts as mutiny do not meet my test (see the discussion in Chapter IV) or are based on insufficiently persuasive evidence. Nevertheless, the list is worth consulting because Petrov identifies characteristics that I have not (though the greater the reach for fineness of detail, the more likelihood of error). Petrov claims 76 mutinies for January-September 1905, but most of the evidence he presents indicates no more than individual disobedience or revolutionary agitation, not genuine mutiny. On the other hand, there were certainly a few more than the 23 mutinies that I have listed for January-October 17.
