Letters of Tatyana Zaslavskaya (1963–1973)

The publication presents the letters of a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) Tatyana Ivanovna Zaslavskaya spent the first ten years of her academic life at the Novosibirsk Academgorodok. In 1963, Tatyana Zaslavskaya transferred from the Institute of Economy of the RAS to the Laboratory of Economics and Mathematical Research (LAMY), created by Abel Aganbegyan at the Institute of Economics and Industrial Engineering of the RAS-Siberian branch. With her family, she moved from Moscow to Novosibirsk Akademgorodok. Her addressee, Tamara Kuznetsova, was a junior research fellow of the Institute of Economy in this period, and prior to the departure of Tatyana Zaslavskaya to Akademgorodok, worked as Zaslavskaya’s “junior” assistant in the sector of the political economy of socialism led by Y. Kronrod. Letters reveal many sides and issues of Zaslavskaya’s life; her everyday life, her relationships with her colleagues, the political situation at LAMY and nature of her work there, the state of agriculture in the USSR, the socio-political situation in the country, etc. But the main subject these letters clarify is Tatyana Zaslavskaya herself, as an extremely pure, honest, sincere, smart, talented person, and a wonderful friend
