“For historians of Russia and the Soviet Union, Voprosy istorii represents a vast repository of knowledge in the field. There are few aspects of Russian or Soviet history that have not been touched upon at some point during the long lifetime of this remarkable journal. Most periods of history come within its purview, and its geographical coverage extends to most corners of the world. But to the historian of the Russian revolution in the broadest sense, embracing the nineteenth century revolutionary movement and the formation of the Soviet political and economic system, Voprosy istorii offers the greatest riches. Many items of great value to historians of various periods, countries and movements are to be found … The problem for the historian is how to access this vast wealth of scholarship… The present electronic version of Voprosy istorii and its predecessor historical journals will be the kind of research tool that is required to do justice to all that the journal has to offer.”
