An unforgettable future. Soviet pedagogical utopia

The Kommunar movement arose in the Soviet Union in the 1960s due to the fact that not everyone considered the state rhetoric about the proximity of communism and a fair non-class society idle talk: some perceived it seriously and tried to realize. One of these experiments is devoted to the book of Daria Dimke, who studied the Leningrad commune of young Frunzians (it lasted from the late 1950s to the mid-1960s) The author not only talks about the history, ideology and complex life of a self -organized commune, but also enters the practices of Kommunarov into a wide context of a thaw of Soviet everyday life.
