Russian Monarchist Party was a Russian monarchist right-wing nationalist organisation, founded in February 1905 in Moscow. In 1907 it changed name to Russian Monarchist Union.
The party was founded by Vladimir A. Gringmut (ru), reactionary editor of the periodical Moscow News (Moskovskiye vedomosti), in February.[1]
It advocated the reestablishment of a powerful autocratic rule, martial law, and suppression of Jews, who they claimed were mainly the instigators of the revolutionary disorders.[1] It also stood for local self-government, public education, freedom of the press, improvement of workers and peasants conditions, and had following internal enemies: constitutional democrats, socialists, revolutionaries, anarchists and the aforementioned Jews, the Bundists.[2]
