Abstract

The article is an attempt at an introductory presentation of the Soviet cultural policy at the local level on the example of Grodno in the second half of the 1980s. Based on the analysis of source materials, it can be concluded that the outdated system of organising and managing cultural policy was in conflict with the informal cultural practices of the city’s inhabitants. The declared goals of the state cultural policy, which is still an ideological tool for forming a new man, and the model of disseminating the content of culture clearly did not keep up with the grassroots initiative of the city’s residents in terms of shaping the free time space.
