Abstracts

EN

This review article discusses the main concepts and methodological approaches of the History of Russia in the 20th Century by Dietmar Neutatz which is presented as the history of repeated, radical attempts at modernising Russian society. In his book, rather than adhering to the more traditional political and economic history approaches, Neutatz presents the reader with a broader cultural history of Russian society. The author of this article regards this latter approach as a very significant stimulus for the writing of the history of national societies in general.
