This comparative account of the roots of Communist revolution in Russia and China examines the changing social identities of peasants who settled in St Petersburg from the 1880s to 1917, and in Shanghai from the 1900s to the 1940s. Smith argues that far more happened to these migrants than simply being transformed from peasants into workers. He examines how identity transformations - of individuality, gender and nation - fed into the wider political, social and cultural process that culminated in revolution.
