General Boldyrev was a more important figure than has been generally appreciated. He was at the heart of the five-man Directory created at the Ufa State Conference of September 1918, the only serious attempt after October 1917 to construct a democratic Russian polity deriving from the institutions of Imperial Russia. While other White generals believed that during the civil war the interim political system had to be a military dictatorship, Boldyrev always emphasised the importance, especially in wartime, of developing elected institutions from below, starting with those created in pre-1917 Russia – the zemstvos.

民主党白人将军：VG Boldyrev

Boldyrev 将军是一个比人们普遍认为的更重要的人物。他是 1918 年 9 月乌法国家会议创建的五人目录的核心人物，这是 1917 年 10 月之后唯一一次认真尝试建立源自俄罗斯帝国机构的民主俄罗斯政体。虽然其他白人将军认为在内战期间临时政治制度必须是军事独裁，但博尔迪列夫总是强调从下层发展民选机构的重要性，尤其是在战时，从 1917 年前俄罗斯创建的机构开始——地方自治机构.
