Description
Russia’s Long Twentieth Century presents a comprehensive examination of one of history’s most dramatic periods through multiple perspectives and voices. The book brings together scholarly analysis with personal testimonies and contested interpretations of pivotal moments in Russian history, from the revolutionary upheavals of 1917 through the Soviet era and into post-Soviet transformation.
By privileging diverse narratives and competing viewpoints, the authors challenge monolithic historical accounts and reveal the complexity of lived experiences during periods of radical social change. The collection addresses how Russians themselves understood and remembered these transformative decades, offering insights into daily life, cultural production, political struggle, and personal resilience amid historical upheaval.
This interdisciplinary work bridges academic scholarship with social history, making it essential reading for understanding modern Russia’s development and the human dimensions of twentieth-century history.
