阅读羅伊·亞山德羅維奇·麥德維傑夫 Roy Medvedev在历史大观的作品!!! | |||
麥德維傑夫是聯持不同政見運動中的“民主社會主義派”的代人物之一。他認為十月革命和列寧主義是正確的，但聯在斯大林時期變成一個官僚化的社會主義和假社會主義的變；他尖銳地批判斯大林時期的姓种种氏“病態”，但又認為應肯定這一時期聯人民在建設社會主義方面所取得的偉大勝利。麥德維傑夫稱自己是馬列主義者，擁護社會主義，主張揚和擴大內民主，恢列寧主義的本來面目，這與其他持不同政見者有很大的不同。他的主要著作有：《讓歷史來審判》、《政治日記》、《赫魯曉夫執政年代》、《哈林的最歲月》、《論社會主義民主》、《斯大林和斯大林主義》等。
Early life and educationRoy Medvedev was the son of a Aleksander Romanovich Medvedev, professor of Military-Political Academy and has an identical twin brother, the biologist Zhores Medvedev. Their father was arrested in 1938, during one of Joseph Stalin's purges, and died in a labor camp in 1941.
Medvedev graduated from the Leningrad University. After joining the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1956 Medvedev pursued a teaching career before becoming a researcher in the Soviet Academy of Pedagogical Sciences.
Dissident historianFrom an allegedly Marxist viewpoint, Medvedev criticized former Russian General Secretary Joseph Stalin, and Stalinism in general, during the Soviet era. In the early 1960s, Medvedev was engaged in samizdat publications. He was critical of the unscientific nature of Lysenkoism.
In 1969, Medvedev was expelled from the Communist Party after the publication of his book Let History Judge, which criticized Stalin and Stalinism at a time when official Soviet propagandists were trying to partially rehabilitate the former dictator. Let History Judge reflected the dissident thinking that emerged in the 1960s among Soviet intellectuals who, like Medvedev, sought a reformed, democratic socialism and a return to Leninism. He announced his position, along with Andrei Sakharov and others, in an open letter to the Soviet leadership in 1970.
Medvedev was often subject to house arrest and KGB harassment under Leonid Brezhnev, but managed to publish numerous critical writings on Soviet history and politics abroad. Medvedev was oppressed for his active support of democracy after he successfully published Let History Judge abroad in the late 1960s.
In a book co-authored with his identical twin brother, Zhores, A Question of Madness, Medvedev describes Zhores' involuntary commitment in the Kaluga Psychiatric Hospital. Zhores, a dissident biologist, was questioned at the Kaluga psychiatric facilities about his involvement with samizdat, and about the book he had written, The Rise and Fall of T.D. Lysenko; Zhores was exiled to Britain in the 1970s.
Medvedev returned to the ruling party in 1989, after Mikhail Gorbachev launched his perestroika and glasnost program of gradual political and economic reforms. He was elected to the Soviet Union's Congress of People's Deputies and was named as member of the Supreme Soviet, the permanent working body of the Congress. After the collapse of the Soviet government, Medvedev joined with dozens of other former communist deputies of the Soviet and Russian parliaments to found the Socialist Party of Working People, becoming a co-chair of the party.
Medvedev supports the current President of Russia and former Prime Minister Vladimir Putin.
