A1 - Shlapentokh, Vladimir LA - English PP - Princeton PB - Princeton University Press YR - 2014 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/jstor_eba_ocn884013058 AB - In this unprecedented work on the status and role of intellectuals in Soviet political life, a former Soviet sociologist maps out the delicate, often paradoxical, ties between the political regime and the creative thinkers who play a major part in the movement toward modernization. Beginning with Stalin, Vladimir Shlapentokh explores the mutual need and antagonism that have existed between political leaders and intellectuals. What emerges is a fascinating portrayal of the Soviet intellectual network since the 1950s, which touches on such topics as the role of literature and film in politica.
