Historical narratives in the Soviet Union and post-Soviet Russiadestroying the settled past, creating an uncertain future /[electronic resource] :Thomas Sherlock. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2007. - viii, 271 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [241]-262) and index.

Myth and History in Transitions From Nondemocratic Rule -- Authorizing Reform By Uncovering the Past -- Leninist Mythology and Reform -- Assessing the Genesis of Stalinism -- Societal Conquest and the Decay of the Center -- Myth, History, and Separatism in the Periphery -- Historyand Myth in the Post-Soviet Space.

This book investigates the significance of historical narratives in Soviet and post-Soviet space. Encompassing reform under Mikhail Gorbachev and retrenchment under Vladimir Putin, it explains the political, social, and cultural importance of a polity?s myths. Charting the rise ofanti-Soviet and anti-communist narratives under perestroika, and theireventual marginalization in post-Soviet Russia, the book argues that changes in symbolic politics must be examined within cultural, socio-political, and international contexts. Of particular relevance is the interactive relationship between state and society. The study of historicaldiscourse must focus not only on how and why the state imposes its discursive preferences on society, thereby shaping public memory, but alsoon why and how thestate itself is constructed by prevailing narratives in society.
