The examination of Baku during the Revolution highlights the city's national and class conflicts, along with the evolution of Bolshevism. Suny's analysis reveals the complexities of the 1918 Commune's failure, challenging the notion that the Revolution was solely driven by a conspiratorial party imposing its will through terror. Instead, it presents a nuanced view of local dynamics and resistance, reshaping our understanding of revolutionary events in this significant oil center of the Russian empire.
