Image of the USSR: The Results of Contemporary Education

Changes in the ideas of Russian society about the USSR are of significant interest. These changes are due to transformations of the external and internal environment, changes in the educational and media environment. The problem of the formation of modern images of the USSR in Russian society acquires high relevance in the context of the so-called “wars of memory”.
