Arkadiy Shofman, Vladimir Zhigunin and the Problems of Periodization in the World and Ancient History

View through CrossRef
В статье рассматривается эпизод научной жизни кафедры всеобщей истории Казанского государственного университета – издание учебного пособия «Периодизация всемирной истории» (1984), подвергшегося нападкам за «идеологические ошибки». Анализ книги показывает, что, хотя значительная ее часть представляла аннотацию высказываний классиков марксизма по ее теме, в ней была сделана интересная попытка уточнить отдельные марксистские категории, высказать собственные теоретические суждения, интегрировать с официозной методологией исследования новые (как отечественные, так и зарубежные) научные подходы. The article analyses an episode in the scientific life of the Department of General History, Kazan State University, i.e. the publication of a manual “Periodization of the World History” (1984), which was immediately criticized for “ideological faults”. The analysis shows that a great part of the book was formed by the annotations of Marxist classics; however, along with this, its authors undertook an interesting attempt to improve some of the Marxist categories, to express their own theoretical views, to integrate into the official methodology new research approaches that manifested themselves both inside and outside the Soviet science.
