I plan to research the issue of concepts of justice in the popular mind in early modern Russia as a chapter in my projected monograph entitled “Crime and Punishment in Early Modern Russia.” I then plan to complete a draft of the book, which focuses on the practice of the criminal law before and after the reforms of Peter I (ruled 1682-1725).
