Mikhail Ivanovich Tugan-Baranovsky (Ukrainian: Михайло Туган-Барановський) (January 20, 1865 – January 21, 1919) was an Ukrainian economist, politician, statesman. He is remembered as a leading exponent of Legal Marxism in the Tsarist Russian Empire and was the author of numerous works dealing with the theory of value, the distribution of a social revenue, history of managerial development, and fundamentals of cooperative managerial activities.
Mikhail Ivanovich Tugan-Baranovsky was born on 8 January 1865 in the village of Solyonoe, located near Kharkov in today's Ukraine, then a part of the Russian Empire. His father's forefathers were Lipka Tatars who had come to Lithuania in the 14th century; the full family name was Tugan Mirza Baranovsky. His mother was an ethnic Ukrainian from the Poltava region.
Tugan-Baranovsky attended high school in the cities of Kiev and Kharkov, developing an early affinity for philosophy, including the works of Immanuel Kant. In 1884 he entered Kharkov University, beginning his studies in the natural sciences. He was awarded the degree of Candidate of Sciences in 1888 but he became interested in political economy and wound up completing his studies as an external student with a degree from the school's Faculty of Law and Economics in 1890. While in college Tugan-Baranovsky became active in the revolutionary movement which sought to overthrow Tsarism in Russia, briefly making the acquaintance of Vladimir Lenin's older brother, Aleksandr Ulyanov, who was executed in 1887 for his part in the attempted assassination of Tsar Alexander III.
