Abstract: During the perestroika, the operation of Soviet museums of history and literature came under question in the media and by the intelligentsia. What impact did political and economic liberalization, the abolition of censorship, the budgetary crisis and the international context have on these institutions? Forced to undergo changes in order to attract visitors, these museums have modernized their exhibitions; and public relations is now their central preoccupation. These formerly ideological institutions have turned away from macrohistorical interpretations to focus on everyday life, local history and the private lives of famous persons.
