  • Nursing and the Public Health Legacies of the Russian Revolution

    Susan GrantARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2017

    The centenary of the October Revolution in 1917 provides a timely opportunity to assess the legacies of that event. I examine the role of the revolution in public health with a focus on nursing, assessing the Imperial Russian health care system, the development of Soviet nursing, and current plans for nursing and public health care in Putin’s Russia. Analyzing nursing shows that there was a great deal of continuity in terms of medical personnel a…

    Susan GrantARTICLEThe International Journal of the…2014Cited by: 2References: 3

    This article assesses the impact of the October Revolution of 1917 and the role of its leading revolutionaries on physical culture and sport. Foremost among these was Bolshevik leader Vladimir I. Lenin, and his contribution to the shaping of sport in the Soviet Union receives particular attention. Key to fully understanding Lenin's role in the development of physical culture and sport is the Lenin ‘myth’ and its interpretation in later Soviet spo…

  • The Fizkul'tura Generation

    Susan GrantARTICLEThe Soviet and Post-Soviet Review2010

    The creation of the New Soviet Person was a constant concern of the Bolsheviks and this concern manifested itself in physical culture as well as in other areas. The desire to sweep away the cobwebs of the old system and replace these with the new Soviet culture infected and infused the political, social and cultural discourse. Physical culture, as this paper shows, was a vital element in the overall attempt to help construct the new society and n…

  • The Collective Agitation of Arms and Legs

    Susan GrantARTICLERevolutionary Russia2010References: 5

    Following the establishment of the Supreme Council of Physical Culture in 1923, the policy of ‘physical culture twenty‐four hours a day’ assumed mounting importance for its organisers. Local authorities were charged with promoting physical culture by encouraging the ‘masses’ to exercise, use the sun, air and water for their health, become more educated in matters of hygiene and pursue a generally healthy lifestyle. This article shows that achievi…

    Open AccessSusan Grant, M Grant et al.ARTICLENations and Nationalism1998Cited by: 1References: 13

    This article examines the role of warfare in the development of American nationalism, focusing in particular on the American Civil War (1861–5). The American response to warfare, and especially to the two major conflicts that created and consolidated the American nation ‐the Revolution and the Civil War ‐ is revealing in terms of how Americans went about the process of defining themselves as a nation. Evidence is offered here of how nineteenthcen…
