Chapter Chapter 7 in The Vexing Case of Igor Shafarevich, a Russian Political Thinker, 2012, pp 209-232 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter discusses Shafarevich’s first addresses in Soviet press during the momentous years of 1988 and 1989 – at the time when his Russophobia, to be discussed in the next chapter, became the object of great passions. Some of these addresses concern issues of culture and may seem rather specific. However, in a similar way as during Khruschev’s “thaw”, it was in the sphere of culture where the political pressure often erupted with the greatest force. Thus, after certain specific questions involving very small nuances are discussed here, in Ch. 9 I will be able to recount a wealth of Shafarevich’s statements and activities in the 1990s and 2000s in a rather concise manner.
