The consequences of a long-term reign of totalitarianism in this country proved much more serious than initially expected. The B prospects of political, economic and social changes also proved more complicated than assumed. Numerous arising diffi culties, the problem of democratisation of Belarusian state and social institutions as well as the nature of development of political processes may be to a considerable extent explained by the heavy burden of the communist system legacy. A further devel- opment requires not only delineation of goals but also a precise analysis of the totalitarian past. This is not possible without being aware of the basic peculiarities of the Soviet communism as a political, sociological and cultural phenomenon. Neo-communist tendencies resurging recently in Belarusian society increase inter- est in the analysis of problems connected with the way it is functioning. Part of it is the phenomenon of Sovietism, the Soviet man that revealed itself on a massive scale and developed in the time of USSR but still exists losing, however, its close connection with the „maternal womb.” This means it is still alive. Therefore an 7 Yury Vashkievich understanding of the phenomenon of „Sovietism” itself has not only a cognitive and theoretical, but also a quite practical meaning. It is necessary to emphasise that as far as the Soviet society is concerned, paral- lels with other societies, both in historical and social-political respect, often fail. The Soviet society was a new historical type. Therefore its accurate description requires focusing especially on terminology and meaning since the system created by the Bolscheviks differed considerably from previous formations. It was found- ed on communist ideology and class struggle theory, it introduced state-exclusive property, one party dictatorship, absolute centralisation of power and abolition of distribution of authority. Together with a complex chain of state and party control it constituted a perfectly tailored set of tools for the party dictatorship. The abso- lute power of the communist party facilitated an effective elimination of noncon- formism. At the same time, a careful selection elevated bureaucrats, role models of a perfect Soviet man for millions of its co-citizens, to the top of the party hierarchy. For the Bolsheviks, the justifi cation of the coup d’etat was the power that made the building of utopia possible. They also believed they had on their hands the key to the secret of social development and a magical recipe for a miracle. They needed the man, inhabitant of this utopia, a man-cogwheel of the state machine. The idea of this type of individual was nothing new; it came from the nineteenth-century Russian theories of socialism. Its then-contemporary prototype was the „new man” intended to carry out a revolution in tsar’s Russia and to introduce socialism. It is of this kind of man that the Russian „Narodniks” dreamed trying to unite with the people to enlighten them and prepare them for the revolution. Their activity in this direction amounted mainly to attempts at forming the new mentality. Its manifestation was to be a negative attitude towards Christian tradition and its spiritual values. It was an activity of the new type of people that considered every way of fi ghting for their ideals to be right. This model of the new man found its incarnation in the attitudes of activists and ideologists of the Bolshevik coup. The Soviet man of the post-revolution era took to creating a new social-political order. In reality, it was a struggle with the world of universal values in the name of rela- tive ones subordinate to the idea of socialism-communism. In the mature period of totalitarianism, „Sovietism” spread wider and wider, engulfi ng greater and greater number of people that did not have any infl uence on politics, economy or social life. They were characterised by conformism and acquiescence of the existence of the ruling system. The totalitarian system formed individuals that reasoned in categories detached 8 from reality and closely connected with the ideology. Soviet people constituted a Metamorphoses of Sovietism collective founded on a specifi c ideology, because the latter had a decisive infl u- ence on moulding their outlook on life. It was thanks to this ideology that they

  • In the Borderland На Прикордонні На Пограничье
    Розділ 1. Теорія та історія культури 147 UDC 730(477.54-25) Shevchenko Svedlow, Andrew J., Ph.D., Professor of Art History, University of Northern Colorado. Greeley, Colorado, USA IN THE BORDERLAND This essay was completed by the author while serving as a Fulbright Scholar assigned to the Kharkiv State Academy of Culture in March 2010. The paper studies the symbolic aspects of the famous monument to Taras Shevchenko in Kharkiv. According to the author, the figure of Katerina is symbolic of the strength of the mother as a metaphor for the state’s ability to lead and protect. The figure of the «Dying Haidamaka» symbolizes the fighting spirit of the revolutionary to fight and die for his country. Built in 1935, the monument was meant to transform the nationalist sentiments in Shevchenko’s poetry into feelings of allegiance to the communist state. However, all these attempts have failed. In contemporary Ukraine this monument is honored and acknowledged not as a symbol of Stalinist Socialist Realism but as a testament to the valor and persistence of the Ukrainian people and state. Manizer’s monumental public sculpture provides an authentic experience that helps the visitor unfold something of Ukrainian history and national identity. Key words: Manizer, Taras Shevchenko, monument, sculpture, symbolism, Socialist Realism, national identity. Ендрю Дж.

  • Films Human Rights
    Friday 26th, 2005 Human Rights 89 Millimeter Germany / Belarus 2004/05 Running time: 77’ Director: Sebastian Heinzel Camera: Eugen Schlegel Editor: Lena Rem Production: Kloos und Co. Contact: [email protected] About the film: 89 Millimeter: This distance stands for the little difference between living in Belarus and in Western Europe. In Belarus the railway tracks are 89 millimetres wider than elsewhere in Europe. Belarus is situated right beyond the border of the new European Union. A gateway to another world. Some say, Belarus is home to the last dictatorship in Europe. 89 Millimeter is a film about coming of age. A young German filmmaker wants to find out how free people of his age really are in this country. He meets a political refugee, members of the resistance, a house painter who only recently was released from jail, a Go-Go-dancer, a journalist without any prospects and a patriotic soldier devoted to his country. The result is a stunning portrait of a post-soviet generation in a young nation that is torn apart between stagnation, protest and departure. About the director: Sebastian Heinzel was born 1979 in Kassel. After the school and his civil service in Philadelphia (USA) he studied film, drama and TV arts in Cologne. While studying he started shooting his own movies and moved to Berlin. He has worked for music television, newspapers and magazines and finally decided to become a documentary filmmaker. His interests are Eastern Europe, subculture, the metropolis and its people. Since 2004 Sebastian Heinzel studies film directing at the Film Academy Baden-Württemberg.

THOMAS jD'i'ERSON It is surely not beyond the realm of probability for the United States and the entire Free World to suffer disastrous defeat under the claws of the present Russian Empire. Con­ trary to superficial opinion, the possibility of such a humiliat­ ing outcome does not necessarily imply the precondition of any hot global war. Indeed, on the basis of the history of the past and present Russian Empire, it can be readily shown that the Russian prerequisite for success is the scrupulous avoidance of an out-and-out war, despite characteristic Russian threats of a world-wide holocaust. Thus, if the defeat of the United States should come to pass, it would not be the result of any technologic lag, inadequacy in missile production, backwardness in space exploration, deficiency in conventional arms and men, domes­ tic inflation, or an inability to cope with a fictitious over-all eco­ nomic competition posed by Moscow and its empire.

  • Between Moscow and Baku: National Literatures at the 1934 Congress of Soviet Writers
    Between Moscow and Baku: National Literatures at the 1934 Congress of Soviet Writers by Kathryn Douglas Schild A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Harsha Ram, Chair Professor Irina Paperno Professor Yuri Slezkine Fall 2010 ABSTRACT Between Moscow and Baku: National Literatures at the 1934 Congress of Soviet Writers by Kathryn Douglas Schild Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures University of California, Berkeley Professor Harsha Ram, Chair The breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991 reminded many that “Soviet” and “Russian” were not synonymous, but this distinction continues to be overlooked when discussing Soviet literature. Like the Soviet Union, Soviet literature was a consciously multinational, multiethnic project. This dissertation approaches Soviet literature in its broadest sense – as a cultural field incorporating texts, institutions, theories, and practices such as writing, editing, reading, canonization, education, performance, and translation. It uses archival materials to analyze how Soviet literary institutions combined Russia’s literary heritage, the doctrine of socialist realism, and nationalities policy to conceptualize the national literatures, a term used to define the literatures of the non-Russian peripheries. It then explores how such conceptions functioned in practice in the early 1930s, in both Moscow and Baku, the capital of Soviet Azerbaijan. Although the debates over national literatures started well before the Revolution, this study focuses on 1932-34 as the period when they crystallized under the leadership of the Union of Soviet Writers.

  • Becoming Soviet: Lost Cultural Alternatives In
    BECOMING SOVIET: LOST CULTURAL ALTERNATIVES IN UKRAINE, 1917-1933 Olena Palko, MA, BA (Hons.) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History December 2016© ‘This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition any quotation or extract must include full attribution.’ Abstract This doctoral thesis investigates the complex and multi-faceted process of the cultural sovietisation of Ukraine. The study argues that different political and cultural projects of a Soviet Ukraine were put to the test during the 1920s. These projects were developed and executed by representatives of two ideological factions within the Communist Party of Bolsheviks of Ukraine: one originating in the pre-war Ukrainian socialist and communist movements, and another with a clear centripetal orientation towards Moscow. The representatives of these two ideological horizons endorsed different approaches to defining Soviet culture. The unified Soviet canon in Ukraine was an amalgamation of at least two different Soviet cultural projects: Soviet Ukrainian culture and Soviet culture in the Ukrainian language. These two visions of Soviet culture are examined through a biographical study of two literary protagonists: the Ukrainian poet Pavlo Tychyna (1891-1967) and the writer Mykola Khvyl'ovyi (1893-1933). Overall, three equally important components, contributing to Ukraine’s sovietisation, are discussed: the power struggle among the Ukrainian communist elites; the manipulation of the tastes and expectations of the audience; and the ideological and aesthetic evolution of Ukraine’s writers in view of the first two components.
