Abstract

The article is dedicated to attempts to construct "national in form, socialist in content" architecture in the Stalinist USSR. In course of a campaign to appropriate the classical heritage, these attempts did not acquire the character of a clear and well-structured policy. However, being themselves a reflection of ideological trend towards Russian nationalism in the pre-war and war years, they influenced the ideas about the historical role of Russian architecture as well as the worldview of architects and the appearance of specific buildings.
