| Abstract [eng] |
The failure of political science manipulations to build a new social identity in Russia was partly compensated by the rise of the importance of historical narrative. Historical narrative in contemporary Russian society plays a role not only of compensatory, but also of a consolidating mechanism. The historical narrative which is powerfully established and dominates in Russian society is selective, monological and expansive; it allows one to call it “negative historical identity”. Despite the peculiarities of this historical narrative on Russian past, present and future, its creators managed to ensure the major public support for the narrative that became a very important part of social mentality in contemporary Russia. |
