Dissertation examines behavioural models of Soviet Lithuania‘s cultural elite which have formed in response to regime-caused pressure and conditions. The influence of the friends’ group for causing certain behaviour has been determined. Three models of behaviour have been composed: compliance, opposition and resistance. They are divided to smaller actions by intensity and relations with regime. Various behaviours of one person at the same time may be put to several behaviour models. This more precisely reflects miscellaneous and contradictory nature of human behaviour. In the dissertation acting of societal opinion independent from regime has been investigated and theoretical model of societal sphere where this opinion was created and maintained has been constructed. Societal sphere's connections with official regime-controlled public sphere have been discussed here, as well as those with private and non-official spheres dominated by informal regime-non-controlled connections. Non-official discourses on cultural elite behaviour have been analysed as well. There have been determined two discourses (combatant and conservative), which clearly differentiated in attitudes towards cultural elite, compliance, and Soviet system in general. Correlations of these discourses with concrete behaviour have been accentuated. Difference between explicitly declared ideology and genuine behaviour which influenced behaviour of cultural elite has been inspected thoroughly. Two ideologies declared by cultural elite were settled: official, declared in official public, and societal one, declared in societal sphere. Formation, working and influence to cultural elite behaviour of conception of compliance as resistance was analysed as example of societal ideology. |
