Kirov, S.M. About Youth (O molodezhi).
Foreword by B. Pozern.

208 p., portr. Leatherette publisher's binding with embossing, reduced format.
This 1937 publication, released by the Komsomol's "Young Guard" publishing house, is a collection of speeches and articles by Sergei Mironovich Kirov, a prominent Bolshevik leader whose 1934 assassination became a pivotal event used to justify the Great Purge. Published at the height of the Stalinist terror, the book is a classic example of posthumous political canonization and the construction of a martyr cult. The volume, featuring a formal leatherette binding and a portrait of the author, served as an ideological textbook for Soviet youth. It presents Kirov's views on the role of the younger generation in building socialism, discipline, education, and loyalty to the Party. The foreword by B. Pozern frames the work within the contemporary political discourse, making this book a significant artifact of Stalinist propaganda and the political pedagogy of the 1930s.
