metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The history of the left opposition in the CPSU(b) is mainly represented in historiography by
  works devoted to the internal party struggle in the highest echelons of power (Politburo, Central
  Committee, etc.). However, a characteristic feature of the political clashes of the 1920s is
  the involvement of the broad party masses in the conflict, who tried to present their own point
  of view on the prospects of the development of the socialist revolution. Therefore, one of the
  most promising directions in the study of the political history of this period is the exploration
  of the peculiarities of confrontation at the grassroots level, i. e. in certain regions or in spheres
  of social, cultural and economic life. The purpose of this article is to reconstruct the struggle of
  the left opposition at Leningrad University, one of the largest scientific centers in the country.
  The author determines the number of oppositionists, their leaders among university teachers,
  as well as the main strategies of struggle. Special attention is paid to the further destinies of
  oppositionists. One of the main observations of the article is that the tactics of suppressing
  opposition at the university largely coincided with that used in the central apparatus of the
  country. The author has established that students played an important role in the activities
  of the opposition. They were responsible for distributing opposition literature, collecting signatures
  for the political platform, etc. Propaganda activities were revived in the form of prerevolutionary
  circles organized at the university and at industrial enterprises in order to agitate
  among students and workers.
