Text :

Lay the two aspects of Russian rural life side by side: the peasant who has the restlessness of the nomad in his blood, and the police-state which enforces upon him the static obligations of the serf status: the urge to be up and moving on the one hand, and the passport and the pursuing authority on the other: and you have the key to some of the contradictions of Russian history.
