In Marx's Shadow: Knowledge, Power, and Intellectuals in Eastern Europe and Russia

By Costică Brădățan and Serguei Alex. Oushakine

The volume draws attention to the unknown and unexplored areas, trends and ways of thinking under the communist regime. It demonstrates how various bodies of knowledge (philosophical, social, political, aesthetic, even theological) were produced, disseminated and used for a wide variety of purposes: from openly justifying dominant political views to framing oppositional and non-official discourses and practices.
