Adam Smith and G.W.F. Hegel?s ideas of civil society influenced Russians and the resulting plans to stimulate the growth of civil society also formed subnational identities. It challenges the view of the provinces as empty space held by Nikolai Gogol, who rejected the new non-noble provincial identity and welcomed a noble-only district identity. By 1861, these non-noble and noble publics would come together to form a multi-estate provincial civil society whose promise was not fulfilled due to the decision of the government to keep the peasant estate institutionally separate. 410 0$aRussian history and culture ;$vVolume 19. 606 $aRegionalism$zRussia$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aGroup identity$zRussia$xHistory 606 $aCivil society$zRussia$xHistory 606 $aSerfs$xEmancipation$zRussia 606 $aCentral-local government relations$zRussia$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aRussia$xHistory$y1801-1917 607 $aRussia$xRural conditions$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aRegionalism$xHistory 615 0$aGroup identity$xHistory. 615 0$aCivil society$xHistory. 615 0$aSerfs$xEmancipation 615 0$aCentral-local government relations$xHistory 676 $a947.07 700 $aSmith-Peter$b Susan Joan$f1972-$0982428 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910481017603321 996 $aImagining Russian regions$92242268 997 $aUNINA
