Wokół podmiotów politycznej socjalizacji związanej z rosyjskim ruchem narodnickim

Abstract

Theoreticians of the Russian Narodnik movement emphasized the virtues of the traditional peasant economy and set the role of Russian intelligentsia in pursuit of the socio-economic progress of the country, where emphasis was placed mainly on the work of the people and on the ideals of the people. Both the legal as well as the illegal press, which constituted a specific public forum of ideological supporters, came to the theorists of the movement’s aid in propagating the Narodnik ideas. In fact, never before was literature in Russia so socially involved. Under the influence of the then press the ordinary reader became a zealous social activist. The subject of this article is an analysis of the process of ideological consciousness formation of the Russian society of the second half of the 19th century, when journalism was so important.
