Buriat Political and Social Activism in the 1905 Revolution
Abstract: This article investigates the upsurge in political and social

topics include the Buriats’ struggles for their ancestral lands and
traditional political structures, and against Russification and discrimination;
the activities of the Buriat intelligentsia; the holding of
Buriat national congresses; participation in radical and liberal
movements; the use of Buddhism as a national symbol; attempts to
nativize education; and participation in the early Duma system.
