constitutional and hereditary monarchy, were the center-right opponents of the parliamentary system in
Russia, considering it unacceptable both from a historical and political point of view. Characterized by the
position of the agrarian question, when deciding which assumed by voluntary agreement with the owners
of the land through the Peasant land bank to increase the area of peasant land tenure due to the state-owned,
crown and private lands. Analysis of the programs on the labor question has revealed the interest of business

political consciousness and deepening of social differentiation in the country.
