The main elements of the ideological platform and the main stages of activity are shown, as well as the political fate of the Labor Group (1906 – 1917). The analysis of the general position of the Labor group in the party system of the country is given. The main political allies, which the Trudoviks gave preference to at different periods of the existence of their organization, were identified. It is noted that, although the Trudoviks, within the framework of parliamentary activities, collaborated with both liberals and socialists, while keeping their own line outside of ideologies, ultimately their accession in 1917 to the People's Socialist Party, which is closest to the Trudoviks in terms of views on ways of solving the agrarian question seems to be quite natural. It is concluded that the emergence of the Labor Group – originally a truly peasant organization – on the political arena of Russia in 1906-1907 reflected noticeable modernization changes in the socio-political life of the country, marked the beginning of the development of a democratic culture in it.
