YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Utopian visions confronted pragmatic realities across the Soviet Union's eighty years of existence, as the USSR designed and built cities they hoped would transform their people from a nation of peasants into model socialist proletarians. In this video, we review the history of Soviet urban planning from the 1917 Revolution all the way to the collapse of the Eastern Bloc, and discuss the core principles used to design Soviet neighborhoods, towns, and cities.
