metadata.value: The focus of the article is an analytical review of contemporary works in the field of oral history
  in Russian historiography. The place and role of oral history as one of the “new directions”
  in historical scholarship and methods of historical research are considered. According to the
  author’s observations, the flourish of oral history in contemporary scholarship is connected
  both with the social and academic demands. In this respect, the practice of research in the
  field of oral history in Russian scholarship fully corresponds to the tendencies in world historiography.
  The article shows that numerous projects in the oral history have been activel
  developed in recent decades by various institutions. In the opinion of the author, oral history
  as a research method has been recognized and fully legitimated in historiography. Methods
  of oral history are in demand in a variety of areas: family history, the history of everyday life,
  etc. However, it is still early to acknowledge the successe and define prospects of oral history
  as a separate direction within Russian historiography. The article also examines methodological
  problems solved by oral history, and the relationship between oral history and Memory
  Studies. The author puts forward a suggestion that methods of oral history subordinate in
  relation to the general tasks of memory studies connected with the study of social and cultural
  memory. At the same time, the article shows that the practices of oral history can also be used
  as tools of historical politics.
