Lesley A. Rimmel. Svodki and popular opinion in Stalinist Leningrad. This essay examines the use of Communist Party svodki on the popular mood in Leningrad as a means ofdetermining popular opinion in the USSR of the 1930s. The advantage of svodki over other kinds of sources, such as memoirs, diaries, and interviews, is that the quantity and variety of their subjects allow the researcher to make certain demographic generalizations. While svodki tend to be more reliable as sources of "negative," anti-regime opinion, they can, when used with care and in certain circumstances, be valuable sources of pro-regime opinion as well. They are also useful in showing how difficult was the job of propagandist during this time, and how poorly organized were the propaganda campaigns around "enemies." Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
