metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: Three major factions in the Russian Civil War in the Far East engaged in nationalist mobilization
  coming up with different rhetorical tropes and images in the 1920–1922 period. The ultra-royalist
  faction led by Mikhail Konstantinovich Diterikhs, which in 1922 controlled the Provisional Priamur
  Government in Vladivostok, portrayed the Romanovs as redeemers who had ended the “dark age” of
  the Time of Troubles (1598–1613) and called for a new Zemskii Sobor to elect a Romanov Tsar for the
  sake of new redemption from the “foreign” Bolsheviks. The socialist faction of the Far Eastern Republic
  (FER), taken over by the Bolsheviks, focused on the grievances caused by the Romanovs’ policies
  and the clashes with Japan and stressed the future role of the Russians as the first nation of toilers to
  lead the global struggle for social justice. The popular monarchist faction, established by Grigorii
  Mikhailovich Semenov, tried to find a middle ground by emphasising the popular role in ending the
  Time of Troubles and agitating for an elected muzhik Tsar. The ultra-royalist and monarchist rhetoric
  failed to mobilize the people of the Far East who did not identify with the Eurocentric images of the
  past and rebuked the cooperation between the monarchists and Japan. The socialist claims that the
  Romanovs and the Japanese accounted for the degraded present proved more relevant in view of the
  regional historical narrative featuring a series of conflicts with East Asian states, while the economic
  rather than racial interpretation of the Japanese policies and the inclusive character of socialism did
  not alienate ethnic minorities from the socialist faction. Refs 22.
