Illusion der Einflussnahme und Nimbus der Macht: Die fellow-traveler und Stalin als Philosophenkönig

Ch. 2. P. 31–50.
David-Fox M.

Der vorliegende Beitrag basiert auf einer Analyse von Texten führender fellow-traveler der 1930er Jahre sowie von Archivdokumenten über deren Reisen in die Sowjetunion. Dabei geht es vor allem um das Geflecht von konkreten Kontakten, das sie mit sowjetischen intellektuellen Mittelsper- sonen und kulturellen Institutionen verband. Im Folgenden möchte ich einige miteinander verknüpfte Thesen entwickeln, die die seit langem ge- führte Debatte zum Thema westliche Intellektuelle und der Kommunis- mus aufgreifen.
