 Russia, Terrorism - CDI RW 12 November 2004   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Among them is a manifesto issued by the People's Will party in October 1881, denouncing the recent assassination of U.S. President James Garfield by Charles Guiteau as an affront to a government promoting liberty.
An ironic gesture, given that less than eight months before the manifesto was issued, People's Will leader Andrei Zhelyabov had killed Alexander II.
Instead, said Maya Dvorkina, a library researcher and organizer of the exhibition, terrorists like Zhelyabov always made sure to target certain persons.

Life demands that we attentively reconsider all our intellectual stock-in-trade when we step on to new ground, and I consider my pamphlet as a contribution which I can make to this matter of criticism which started long ago in our revolutionary literature.
The reader has probably not yet forgotten the biography of Andrei Ivanovich Zhelyabov which contained a severe and frequently very correct critical appraisal of the programme and activity of the Zemlya i Volya group.
It is quite possible that my attempts at criticism will be less successful, but it would hardly be fair to consider them less timely.

At the moment of its fall, the administration was totally demoralized by fear and despair, and the population had become accustomed to these reprisals.
