Alexander Rabinowitch

Alexander Rabinowitch

Alexander Rabinowitch is an American historian, professor emeritus of Indiana University.

Rabinowitch received his B.A. at Knox College, 1956, M.A. at University of Chicago, 1961 and Ph.D. at Indiana University, 1965.

His main areas of expertise are Russian history to 1917, the Russian Revolutions, the Soviet Union in World War II, and Soviet-American relations.

His most well-known book, "The Bolsheviks Come to Power: The Revolution of 1917 in Petrograd", was only the second history text by a Western author to be published in the Soviet Union. His work on the Russian Revolution stresses the diversity of opinion and grass-roots initiatives within the Bolshevik party, contrary to traditional interpretations focusing on the party's authoritarian nature.

He was visiting the Soviet Union during the August 1991 coup.
