| Summary: | The paper provides an attempt of researching the phenomenon of youth nonconformism in a historical retrospective of the 1920s. Archival documents, particularly the reports of the central and local cells of the Russian Communist League of Youth (RKSM) act as the main source.The assumption is made that the statistical data contained in the documents can serve as the criterion for defining the dynamics of youth nonconformism.Such quantitative indices as change in the number of Komsomol organizations, the number of members who voluntarily left and were excluded, the percentage ratio for the reasons of exclusion are subject to the analysis. The conclusion is drawn about the gradual increase of protest moods in the youth environment since the mid 1920s. |
