This book is based upon a set of papers prepared for the conference Reforming Justice in Russia: An Historical Perspective, which was held at Massey College, University of Toronto, 31 March2 April 1995. The conference was special in that it provided the first occasion for intensive discussion and collaboration among specialists in law and justice in tsarist Russia and their counterparts working on this subject in the USSR and post-Soviet Russia. Funding for the conference came from the Centre for Russian and East European Studies through its grant from the Andrew Mellon Foundation and from the Stalin-Era Research and Archives Project (SERAP) at the Centre funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. In addition to the contributors to this volume, participants at the conference included: Susan Heuman, Robert Johnson, Joan Neuberger, Ronald Pruessen, Susan Solomon, Olga Solovieva, and Lynne Viola. As commentator for the conference as a whole, Robert Sharlet gave sage advice on the development of this volume.

In preparing this volume for publication, I benefited above all from collaboration with an extraordinarily talented editor, Dr. Edith Klein. As publications officer of SERAP, Edith performed copy-editing and prepared the camera-ready version of the manuscript, for which I am truly grateful. I am also pleased to acknowledge the assistance of Janet Hyer, Gary Wilson, and Brett Young in research, editorial assistance, and conference organization. AtM. E. Sharpe, Patricia Kolb and Elizabeth Granda provided firm and patient guidance to bring this volume to the public.
