This book explores the impact of the 1917 Revolution on factory life in the Russian capital. It traces the attempts of workers to take control of their working lives from the February Revolution through to June 1918, when the Bolsheviks nationalised industry. The book demonstrates that the sphere of industrial production was a crucial arena of political as well as economic conflict.
