Izvestiia Digital Archive & Pravda Digital Archive

• 09/03/20230 – 31/03/2023
• Izvestiia Digital Archive
  Among the longest-running Russian newspapers, Izvestiia (Известия, News) was founded in March 1917. During the Soviet era, Izvestiia became the mouthpiece of the Kremlin, informing the public of government policies through its pages. Less ideologically vocal than official party newspapers, Izvestiia also played a real role during the Khrushchev-era “thaw,” when the paper’s editors advocated for de-Stalinization and reform. Remarkable for its serious and balanced treatment of subject matter, Izvestiia has traditionally been a popular news source within intellectual and academic circles. Continuously published for over 100 years, Izvestiia’s prominence endures today as one of the most subscribed news sources of contemporary Russia, covering domestic and foreign policy, commentary, culture, education, and finance.
• Pravda Digital Archive
  Pravda (Правда, Truth) was the official voice of Soviet communism and the Central Committee of the Communist Party between 1918 and 1991. Founded in 1912 in St. Petersburg, Pravda originated as an underground daily workers’ newspaper, and soon became the main newspaper of the revolutionary wing of the Russian socialist movement. Throughout the Soviet era, party members were obligated to read Pravda. Today, Pravda still remains the official organ of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, an important political faction in contemporary Russian politics.
