Biography

By 1878, Osip V. Aptekman was a member of Land and Liberty. When Land and Liberty faced an internal crisis over tactics and thus broke into two factions in August 1879, Aptekman sided with the more cautious Black Partition grouping which insisted that the continued use of propaganda was the best means of achieving social change.

In 1893 and 1894 Aptekman was one of the primary leaders of the People's Rights Party (Partiia Narodnogo Prava), an illegal constitutionalist populist organization.[2]
