Winner of the 2022 Choice Outstanding Academic Titles

Mark D. Steinberg explores the work of individuals he recognizes as utopians during the most dramatic period in Russian and Soviet history. It has long been a clich© to argue that Russian revolutionary movements have been inspired by varieties of âutopian dreamingâ â" claims which, although not wrong, are too often used uncritically. For the first time, Russian Utopian digs deeper and asks what utopians meant at the level of ideas, emotions, and lived experience.

Despite the fact that many would have resisted the âutopianâ label at the time because of its dismissive meanings, Steinbergâs comprehensive approach sees him take in political leaders, intellectuals, writers, and artists (visual, material, and musical), as well as workers, peasants, soldiers, students and others. Ideologically, the figures discussed range from reactionaries to anarchists, nationalists (including non-Russians) to feminists, both religious believers and âthe militant godlessâ. This innovative text dissects the very notion of the Russian utopian and examines its significance in its various fascinating contexts.
