The Myth of the Russian Intelligentsia: Old Intellectuals in the New Russia - BASEES / Routledge Series on Russian and East European Studies 1st edition
Kochetkova, Inna (University of Bradford, UK)
This book examines the phenomenon of the Russian intelligentsia as a cultural story or myth; it focuses on one of the most important and influential groups of Russian intellectuals – the 1960s generation or ‘Sixtiers’ – who devoted their lives to defending ‘socialism with a human face’, authored Perestroika, and were subsequently demonized when the reforms failed.
