Science, Orthodoxy, and the Quest for Hegemony at the Socialist (Communist) Academy in: Revolution of the Mind - Higher Learning among the Bolsheviks, 1918-1929 Author(s): Michael David-Fox |
Bolshevik intellectuals presented their cause as a class struggle with bourgeois academia. Their primary field of battle in higher learning, however, was first and foremost institutional. When Evgenii B. Preobrazhenskii insisted in the Socialist Academy's newly founded journal in 1922 that the academy "represents the highest scientific research institute of Marxist thought," the academy leader was linking the Bolshevik declaration of war in organized intellectual life to his own institutional base. It has rarely been considered, but such assertions of primacy implied as many internal ramifications for the Bolsheviks as outward effects for the nonparty intellectual world.
Boljševički intelektualci su svoju stvar predstavili kao klasnu borbu sa buržoaskom akademijom. Međutim, njihovo primarno polje borbe u visokom obrazovanju bilo je pre svega institucionalno. Kada je Evgenij B. Preobraženski u novoosnovanom časopisu Socijalističke akademije 1922. insistirao da akademija „predstavlja najviši naučno-istraživački institut marksističke misli“, vođa akademije je povezivao boljševičku objavu rata u organizovanom intelektualnom životu sa sopstvenom institucionalnom bazom. O tome se retko razmišljalo, ali takve tvrdnje o primatu su podrazumevale isto toliko unutrašnjih posledica za boljševike koliko i spoljašnje posledice za nepartijski intelektualni svet.
