"In Bolshevik Russia, the successful transformation of young people into communists was crucial for the future of the Soviet state. Soviet youth needed to be shaped into communists in every aspect of their daily lives - work, leisure, gender relations, and family life. But how could the Bolsheviks accomplish this enormous project? What did it mean to be "made communist"?
What were the consequences if prerevolutionary and "bourgeois" culture and social relations could not be transformed into new socialist forms of behavior and belief?".
"Drawing from a wide range of sources - diaries, party speeches, propagandistic writings, scientific studies, and literature - Anne E. Gorsuch reveals the rich diversity of youth cultures in Soviet Russia during the 1920s and explores the relationship between representation and reality and between official ideology and popular culture, along with the meaning of these relationships for the making of a Soviet state and society."--BOOK JACKET.
