Moscow Copper Riot

[Sarah J Young]

Dear SEELANGers,

a request from a non-Russianist friend who works on economic history:

can anybody recommend any sources in English on the Moscow Copper
riot (Mednyi bunt) of July 25 1662? 

and as a supplementary question, does anybody know when the first
text(s) on economics were published in Russia?

many thanks,

Sarah
