	Stolypin, Piotr Arkadevich. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05

		Stolypin was assassinated by a revolutionary terrorist who was also a police agent.

		However, on September 14, 1911, Stolypin was assassinated by a leftist radical, Dmitri Bogrov, while attending a performance at the Kiev Opera House in the presence of the Tsar and his family.

		In 1902 Stolypin was appointed the youngest ever governor first in Grodno, then in Saratov, where he became known for harsh suppression of peasants' unrests in 1905.

		Stolypin's boldest measure was his peasant reform program.

	Nicholas Romanov
		Witte, unable to grasp the seemingly insurmountable problems of reforming Russia and the monarchy wrote to Nicholas on 14 April 1906 resigning his office (however, other accounts have said that Witte was forced to resign by the Tsar).
		After the second Duma resulted in similar problems, the new prime minister Pyotr Stolypin (or Peter Stolypin, whom Witte described as 'reactionary') unilaterally dissolved it, and changed the electoral laws to allow for future Dumas to have a more conservative content, and to be dominated by the liberal-conservative Octobrist Party of Alexander Guchkov.
		By the time of Stolypin's assassination by Dmitry Bogrov, a Jewish student (and police informant) in a theatre in Kiev on 18 September 1911, he and the Emperor were barely on speaking terms, and his fall was widely foreseen.

		This is particularly the case for Pyotr Stolypin, for whom the governorship of Saratov from 1903 to 1906 was the launching pad to his appointment as prime minister.
		Stolypin is remembered by a plaque on the downtown mansion where he lived, and the Academy of Political Education - called the Higher Party School under the Soviets - is also named after him.
		As well as all this, a statue of Stolypin - by Moscow sculptor Vyacheslav Klykov, who designed the monument to Marshal Zhukov near Red Square in Moscow - was unveiled just across from the Radishchev Arts Museum on the corner of Pervomayskaya Ulitsa and Ulitsa Radishcheva in March 2002.

	First Step toward Russia
		The reforms of Prime Minister Pyotr Stolypin in 1908—12, which included the privatization of agricultural land, laid the foundations for the emergence of a strong agriculture sector based on individually-owned farms.
		Nevertheless, even today, communists and nationalists oppose private ownership of agricultural land and compare trade or lease in farmland to "leasing your mother or your sister," as the Slavophile Nobel prize winning writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn once put it.
		Ironically, Solzhenitsyn is the most famous admirer of Stolypin and his reforms.

		Stolypin was, without doubt, the major political figure in Russian 20th century history.
		And when the revolution occurred, it was the free democratic regime of February 1917 that abolished all his reforms and went back to square one.

		Land turnover achieved slightly greater freedom as a result of the reforms carried out under Pyotr Stolypin in the early 20th century, which created a new class of strong village landowners based on a gradual dismantling of the peasant commune.
		The commune itself was reincarnated in a monstrous form during the collectivization of the 1930s.
		And then we can think of how to approach the final stage of the Stolypin reforms, after a 100 year hiatus, and create a class of private land owners.

	East European Constitutional Review
		Particularly during the liberal reforms of the 1860s and, again, during Pyotr Stolypin's agrarian reforms of the early twentieth century, the private ownership of land was viewed as the proper basis of social and political stability-or so it was hoped.
		A competing tendency was the socialization of land, an arrangement in which land was not private property but could be used temporarily upon payment of a special tax known as ground rent.
		This explains a very important characteristic of Russian reforms regarding land-their cyclical nature: each step forward in the area of agrarian restructuring was accompanied, at least until recently, by a movement in the opposite direction, combined with the restoration of earlier institutions in modified form.

		We have already written about the economic advantages that we believe privately owned companies in the military industrial complex have.
		It must be said that Russia already had experience with such a program of positive social reform from above - the agricultural reform of Pyotr Stolypin.
		We find that the owners, managers and personnel of private high-tech enterprises will be a part of the social foundation of the national right-wing forces in the way that, in Stolypin's conception, peasants freed from the supervision of the rural communities were to become a conservative foundation for modernization almost a century ago.

		In his recently published October 1916, Solzhenitsyn writes eloquently of the difficulties of pursuing a "middle line" of social development, particularly in an age of ideological politics.

		Until this time what was absent was a modern de-ideologized program of land reform.
		In this century, the only effective economic reform program that took place on Ukrainian soil, and which in a few decades changed the face of the country, was instituted by Pyotr Stolypin and based on land reform.
		These reforms addressed the categorical breakdown of an inefficient communal agricultural production system which resembled our contemporary kolhospy (collective farms) and radhospy (state farms) and transferred the individual interests of people to private farm production.
