metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: This article analyzes the structure of the collection of the Kstovo Museum of Local Lore and
  History, which is located at the exposition “The Heroic Chronicle of Kstovo citizens”, which
  tells about the construction of Kstovo and the Novogorkovsky oil refinery in the Gorky region
  in the 1950s–1960s. The purpose of the analysis is to evaluate the potential of museum items
  in the solution of the task of reconstructing the image of the post-war socialist city and the
  daily life of its citizens. Various museum items — photographs, documents, prints, memorial
  objects, combined in the exposition — reveal the specific features of the socialist city of the
  period: the presence of a large industrial plant, the transition to standard housing and industrial
  development, the young population manifesting itself in labor, social and political life,
  preferring active forms of leisure. In the course of the research, earlier unpublished photographs
  and documents from the museum’s collection are introduced into scientific circulation.
  Attention is paid to both museological and cultural aspects of the subject matter. The concept
  of a socialist city has been analyzed, and it has also been studied how completely the museum’s
  collection is capable of embodying the everyday reality of Soviet Kstov. Using the example of
  individual exhibits, authors demonstrated how the information content of each of the considered
  types of objects influences the creation of a holistic image of the city in the museum’s
  exhibition space. At the same time, the article also shows a broader historical context in order
  to highlight the common and specific features of the construction of the city of Kstovo, as
  reflected in the exhibits. The article focuses on the ways of representing Soviet everyday life in
  the museum space.
