Mass festivals were a trademark of twentieth-century authoritarianism. Nowhere was this phenomenon more prevalent than in the Soviet Union. Originally published in German, Malte Rolf's acclaimed work examines the creation and perpetuation of large-scale celebrations. He chronicles the overt political agendas, public displays of power, forced participation, and widespread use of these events in the Soviet drive to eradicate existing cultural norms and replace them with new icons of Soviet ideology.
