Note: The idea of this reading list is to focus on
the current research in Soviet social and cultural history. Since I took a
comprehensive exam which was focused on Soviet political history as part of my
studies for Cand.Sc. degree in history (kandidatskii
ekzamen), I largely omitted in this list those titles which were focused on
political history in order to overview scholarship which provides approaches to
Soviet history alternative to the traditional totalitarian/authoritarian
conceptual models. The list is chronology-based (general titles first).
