Summary/Abstract: This article deals with the moral-psychological atmosphere in the Socialist-Revolutionary (S-R) emigration and the centrifugal processes in the S-R party. The article examines why these processes emerged after the defeat of the 1905–1907 revolution, how they progressed and how they were affected by the exposure of Yevno Azef. The author, using the documents of the Party commissions of inquiry and courts, provides numerous examples of deviant behaviour within the S-R Party and attempts to create a system of norms and mechanisms for countering the processes of disintegration of the Party organism and violation of the unwritten rules of behaviour of Party members.
