This project explores urban housing, the home and the concept of 'private life' in 20th Century Russia, paying particular attention to the differential experiences and attitudes of men and women in relation to housing and daily life. It will show how Soviet ideology on gender, combined with the peculiarities of Russian urban housing, continually complicated the traditional distinction between male/public and female/private space, as well as challenging the distinction between public and private space itself.Private life, housing and the home have received considerable attention in relation to Western democracies. Most notably, a five-volume study on the subject by French historians was published in the 1980s/1990s. Yet although the volume IV identifies 'the despotism of totalitarian states' as one reason for the growth in interest in private life [Michelle Perrot (ed.) A History of Private Life Volume IV (1990) p 1], Soviet Russia is not one of the countries included in the study.In general there has been relatively little research on these subjects in relation to Russia. Much of the work on housing in the Soviet Union has been concerned with economic and social issues, with analysts of the post-Soviet situation looking at housing as one aspect of Russia's move to a market economy. One edited collection has taken a broader view of the subject (W.C. Brumfield and BA Ruble, eds., Russian Housing in the Modern Age, 1993), and recent interest in daily life in the Soviet Union has inevitably looked at housing and home life as one aspect of daily life: this is most notable in the work of S. Boym, S. Fitzpatrick, S. Kotkin, and S. Reid. There is also an increasing amount of work in Russian on the subject of daily life and the peculiarities of Soviet housing. Some reference has been made to ways in which the Russian home has been differentially experienced by men and women (e.g. by B. Holmgren and L. Lissyutkina), but there has been no systematic study of this issue. There has also been no work on the ways in which official ideas on housing and family life in Russia have been propagandised through the media, or on media representations of the 'new Russian' home.This study will therefore constitute a major addition to work on the public and private.

该项目探讨了世纪俄罗斯的城市住房、家庭和“私人生活”概念，特别关注男女在住房和日常生活方面的不同经历和态度。它将展示苏联的性别意识形态，结合俄罗斯城市住房的特点，如何不断复杂化男性/公共和女性/私人空间之间的传统区别，以及挑战公共和私人空间本身的区别。私人生活，住房和家庭在西方民主国家受到了相当大的关注。最值得注意的是，法国历史学家在1980年代/1990年代出版了关于这一主题的五卷本研究报告。然而，尽管第四卷将“极权国家的专制”确定为私人生活兴趣增长的原因之一。A History of Private Life Volume IV（1990）p 1]，苏联不在研究范围之内。总体而言，对这些主题与俄罗斯相关的研究相对较少。苏联的大部分住房工作都与经济和社会问题有关，后苏联形势的分析师将住房视为俄罗斯走向市场经济的一个方面。一个编辑的集合采取了更广泛的观点的主题（W.C.布鲁姆菲尔德和BA卢布，编辑，俄罗斯住房在现代时代，1993年），以及最近在苏联的日常生活的兴趣，不可避免地把住房和家庭生活作为日常生活的一个方面：这是最显着的工作S。博伊姆，S。菲茨帕特里克，S. Kotkin和S.里德在日常生活和苏联住房的特点方面，俄语的工作也越来越多。有些人提到了男人和女人对俄罗斯家庭的不同体验（例如B。Holmgren和L. Lissyutkina），但一直没有对这个问题进行系统的研究。也没有关于俄罗斯住房和家庭生活的官方观念如何通过媒体宣传的工作，也没有关于“新俄罗斯”家庭的媒体表现的工作，因此，这项研究将构成对公共和私人工作的一个重要补充。
