| biography:
| Political economist, born in Perm, W Russia, the grandson of Friedrich Struve. A leading Marxist, he wrote a critical account of Russia's economic development (1894), which Lenin attacked for its ‘revisionism’. He edited several political magazines with liberal tendencies, was professor at St Petersburg Polytechnic (1907–17), and was closely connected with the ‘White’ movement in S Russia after the Revolution. After 1925 he lived in exile in Belgrade and Paris, where he died during the Nazi occupation. |
