Moving People during the Great Patriotic War
Moving people during war is what states do and have done since there have been states. This article attempts to specify what was peculiar to the Soviet state in moving its own civilian population during the Great Patriotic War (1941–45). It focuses on two categories of civilians defined by the state according to its determination of loyalty and utility to the war effort: evacuees and deportees. The article proceeds along the lines of three compar…

Mark Pittaway, The Worker ́s State
Mark Pittaway uses “the worker’s state” ironically, much as Miklós Haraszti did in a similarly titled book, to underscore feelings of alienation and powerlessness among socialist Hungary’s industrial workers. But unlike Haraszti’s slim volume, a sociographic account of his own experience working at Budapest’s Red Star Tractor Factory in the early 1970s, Pittaway’s is squarely in the tradition of the “new” labor history that arose in Great Britain…
Sputnik Goes to Brussels
The first universal exhibition of the post-Second World War era and a major battleground in the ‘cultural Cold War’, the 1958 Brussels Exposition served as an appropriate venue for the display of Sputniks I and II. As the centerpiece of the enormous Soviet pavilion, the Sputnik replicas enabled the USSR to bask in the reflective glow of its scientific and technological achievement before an international audience of 40 million. Based on archival …

Soviet Workers and the Collapse of Perestroika
The Cultural Front
When Lenin asked, Who will beat whom? (Kto kogo?), he had no plan to wage revolutionary class war in culture. Many young Communists thought differently, however. Seeking in name of proletariat to wrest hegemony from intelligentsia, they turned culture into a battlefield in 1920s. But was this, as Communist militants thought, a genuine class struggle between proletarian Communists and bourgeois intelligentsia? Or was it, as intelligentsia believed…

The Disabled in the Soviet Union
A Usable Past
In a well-known passage in What is History?, E.H. Carr addresses the perennially perplexing issue of historical inevitability. Seeking to ridicule the ‘“might-have-been” school of thought—or rather of emotion’, Carr contrasts the treatment of more chronologically distant events from the more recent. ‘The historian,’ he tells us, ‘writes
Perestroika from Below
In the wave of social activism that has washed over the Soviet Union in recent years, the strike by some 400,000 coal miners in the summer of 1989 may be the most poorly understood of events. Inter-ethnic conflict in the Caucasus, the movements toward independence in the Baltic
Production Collectives and Communes and the "Imperatives" of Soviet Industrialization, 1929-1931
There cannot be any doubt that the confusion in the minds of individual Party members concerning Marxian socialism and their infatuation with the egalitarian tendencies of agricultural communes are as like as two peas to the petty bourgeois views of our "Leftist" blockheads, who at one time idealized the agricultural communes to such an extent that they even tried to implant the commune in the factories, where skilled and unskilled worker, each w…
