WORKING PEOPLE 'S LETTERS TO I. V. STALIN . 1946: HISTORICAL AND POLITICAL ASPECT
Abstract
The article deals with the working peoples letters
to I.V.Stalin in 1946. The records kept in the Russian
State Archive of Socio-Political History include mainly annotations
of the letters and partially the letters themselves.
These epistolary documents are a historical source which
characterizes the situation and expectations of various social
groups in post-war soviet society. The author takes into consideration
this aspect while analyzing the letters of: collective
farmers, urban population, former prisoners of war and the
repatriated ones. All those letters in whole make up a picture
of Soviet peoples everyday-life in post-war poverty and hunger
of 1946. Questions of material security were important
for most of status groups, while former prisoners of war and
the repatriated citizens were mostly interested in their legal
status problems.
