Velyaminov, G.M. Interpretation of the history of the Russian state as means of ideological diversion (on the book by Richard Pipes “Russia Under the Old Regime”).

Abstract: This article contains a critical resume on the book, written by a famous American specialist in Russian history Richard Pipes, who is a former sovietologist advisor of President Reagan. The book is devoted to the history of Russia up to XIX century and it did not lose its ideological topicality by now. It’s the opinion of G.M. Velyaminov that while this book seems to be objective, it is “especally harmful in the current conditions”, since it is used in the studies of foreign, and, possibly, Russian specialists, majoring in our history.
