Hardback. Condición: New. In 1990, months before crowds in Moscow and other major cities dismantled their monuments to Lenin, residents of the western Ukrainian city of Lviv toppled theirs. William Jay Risch argues that Soviet politics of empire inadvertently shaped this anti-Soviet city, and that opposition from the periphery as much as from the imperial center was instrumental in unraveling the Soviet Union.Lviv's borderlands identity was defined by complicated relationships with its Polish neighbor, its imperial Soviet occupier, and the real and imagined West. The city's intellectuals-working through compromise rather than overt opposition-strained the limits of censorship in order to achieve greater public use of Ukrainian language and literary expression, and challenged state-sanctioned histories with their collective memory of the recent past. Lviv's post-Stalin-generation youth, to which Risch pays particular attention, forged alternative social spaces where their enthusiasm for high culture, politics, soccer, music, and film could be shared.The Ukrainian West enriches our understanding not only of the Soviet Union's postwar evolution but also of the role urban spaces, cosmopolitan identities, and border regions play in the development of nations and empires. And it calls into question many of our assumptions about the regional divisions that have characterized politics in Ukraine. Risch shines a bright light on the political, social, and cultural history that turned this once-peripheral city into a Soviet window on the West.

Youth and Rock in the Soviet Bloc examines the emergence of youth as consumers of popular culture and the globalization of music in Russia and Eastern Europe. The essays challenge the notion that Communist leaders and Western youth cultures were fundamentally opposed. Initially, Western trends like jazz and rock-and-roll faced bans, but Communist leaders adapted elements of these genres to create a socialist popular music. They promoted organized leisure activities to steer youth away from perceived Western excesses. Officially sanctioned rock and pop bands provided a socialist soundtrack for young people. Despite their attraction to Western music and subcultures, youth still aligned with the values of Communist organizations. Although there were challenges in supplying consumer goods, leaders of Soviet bloc states sought to offer a socialist alternative to the modernity of the capitalist West. However, the influence of Western youth cultures was limited. State-sponsored rock festivals fostered rebellion among youth, yet official definitions of culture restricted the integration of rock music. Countercultures from the West, such as hippies and punks, undermined the legitimacy of Communist youth organizations.
