So, the rise of Enlightenment scientism in the second half of the 18th century coincided with the spread of Freemasonry and other ideologies that in Enlightenment parlance would have been termed “enthusiastic,” while, in the late Soviet period, private citizens who modeled their attitudes to sexuality on the “progressive” West included not just the pioneers of free love in the hippie movement but the covert readers of foreign erotica such as Hugh Heffner’s Playboy.1 As far as the writing of history is concerned, a similarly contradictory moment was the end of the 1980s and early 1990s, when excitement about sudden access to formerly closed archival resources, the legitimating fetish of the positivistic historian, was challenged by what might retrospectively be described as “the textual turn.” Scholars of the Soviet past were not by intention looking for what Natalie Zemon Davis in a landmark book of 1987 termed “fiction from the archives.”2 But many were sensitive to the fact that the materials they retrieved might not only answer questions—and indeed, that the apparently most “objective” data might in some cases be the least reliable.

On the outskirts of Batumi, they would be greeted by a lush botanical garden reaching up into the hills and showcasing the region’s subtropical abundance with citrus groves and areas devoted to the exotic plants of the Mediterranean, South America, East Asia, and even distant Australia. In Batumi itself, they would find a bustling international port, visited by container ships and tankers from across the world; they would pass sailors strolling the streets, conversing in foreign languages. The Black Sea coast was a showcase for Soviet achievements and, especially in the postStalinist era, an opening to the world beyond Soviet borders. If our travelers continued to head south from Batumi, however, they would soon enter a “forbidden border zone” (zapretnaia pogranichnaia zona) open only to carefully screened local residents and Soviet border troops, a restricted stretch of land whose topography was not detailed in public maps but instead considered classified information. The forbidden zone served as a buffer between the heavily trafficked port to the north and the nearby border with Turkey, a country described in a training manual for the Soviet border troops as a US-funded “base for the organization of subversive activity directed against the USSR.”1 If our imaginary travelers were not seized","PeriodicalId":45639,"journal":{"name":"KRITIKA-EXPLORATIONS IN RUSSIAN AND EURASIAN HISTORY","volume":"23 1","pages":"581 - 604"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42188370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although a countless number of biographies exist about the dictator worldwide, Stalin is the significant presence looming over Russia’s past. Responsible for propelling the Soviet Union into modernity but also wreaking havoc with his destructive— and contradictory—behavior, if we are better to understand Soviet and broader 20th-century history, we still need to try and better understand Stalin on a personal level. Twenty years have passed, however, since Stalin’s carefully cultivated archive first partially opened, and much of what material was made accessible can now be found online. Stalin’s motivations, moreover, can be notoriously difficult to interpret, and limitations in accessible materials have led to almost irreconcilable disagreements over key parts of the Stalin era.3 With historians","PeriodicalId":45639,"journal":{"name":"KRITIKA-EXPLORATIONS IN RUSSIAN AND EURASIAN HISTORY","volume":"23 1","pages":"424 - 430"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42466950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
