With Whom Was the General Staff During the Civil War in Russia, 1917–1922?

ABSTRACT The problem of delimiting the Russian officer corps and its choice during the Civil War in Russia (1917–1922) is related to a number of the central and most complex questions of the history of that era, which historians have been yet trying to answer for a century. This issue has not only scholarly but also great social importance. Established opinions on the correlation of the officer corps with respect to the armies and camps of the Civil War have not been developed in historiography. Moreover, depending on ideological predilections of the different authors, one encounters statements about either the general anti-Bolshevism of the officer class or, on the contrary, its general loyalty to the Bolsheviks. Obviously, both these theses are far from reality. Moreover, there are individual publications in the latest historiography that cite a multi-faceted analysis of the split of various groups of the officer corps.1
