I have a question about russian history 19th century?

Question

It is
Discuss the reasons why the people wanted reforms but the Czar resisted.
about ( Alexander I ,II or Nicholas I )

Answer 1

the reforms included the idea of taking power away from the Tsar- making him no longer an autocratic ruler supported by an aristocracy (whom he knew and trusted) but into a kind of front figure who gets to do what some upstart politician tells him to do.

Of course, in the end, the "reformers" got a totalitarian ruler whose scope of power made the tsar's look like a joke.
