I need help with my Russian History Coursework. I have checked Google scholar for books and academic papers on this question but I can't find anything useful.
The full essay question that I am answering is "To what extent was the failure to carry out meaningful reform responsible for the downfall of the tsar"
Anyone have any info or any books they could recommend or any tips on research methods?
Cheers in advance

But your essay title is about his "downfall". How can dying of typhoid be interpreted as a "downfall"?

the question I asked was whether he was popular at the point where he defeated Napoleon and what that meant in terms of how it impacted the downfall of the Tsar in 1917

Ah! It's becoming slightly clearer! The Tsar whose downfall you refer to in your question isn't Alexander I, but Nicholas II.

basically, this post is asking what did Alexander I do that had an influence on Nicholas II downfall 116 years after his coronation

yeah! I need to start at Alexander I first though because the coursework requires that I cover the period 1801-1917

Focus on his domestic policy.
Would your question be better worded as "...the downfall of Tsardom"?

In that case, his popularity for defeating Napoleon is probably irrelevant.

I worded the question wrong in the first place.
My teachers DO actually want me to answer "... the collapse of Tsarism"
Anyway
I'll have a look at his domestic policy
