==Life==
Pitirim Sorokin was born to a Russian father and Komi mother in the small village of Turja (then in the Yarensk uyezd in the Vologda Governorate, Russian Empire, now Knyazhpogostsky District, Komi, Russia). In the early 1900s, supporting himself as an artisan and clerk, Sorokin attended the University of St. Petersburg where he earned his graduate degree in criminology and obtained his first job as a professor.〔Allen Phillip, J. (1963). Pitirim A. Sorokin in Review. Durham N.C. Duke University Press〕 Sorokin was an anti-communist, who during the Russian Revolution was a member of the Socialist Revolutionary Party. This was also the time he met and married Dr. Helen Baratynskaya, with whom he would later have two sons. During the Russian Revolution, Sorokin was a secretary to Prime Minister Alexander Kerensky who was a leader in the Russian Constituent Assembly. After the October Revolution, Sorokin continued to fight communist leaders, and was arrested by the new regime several times before he was eventually condemned to death by Lenin himself. After six weeks in prison, he was set free and went back to teaching at the University of St. Petersburg. In 1918, he went on to become the founder of the sociology department at the University of St. Petersburg. In 1922, Sorokin was again arrested and this time exiled by the Soviet Government. He emigrated in 1923 to the United States and was naturalized in 1930.〔 Sorokin was professor of sociology at the University of Minnesota (1924–30) and at Harvard University (1930–59).
