Roy and Zhores Medvedev, two identical twins with a unique fate, not only lived through a whole century of history, from Stalin to Putin, they wrote and made history. Their research on Stalinism, the first to come out of the Soviet Union in the 1960s-1970s, turned them into famous dissidents overnight, but their criticism of the regime always remained loyal to Soviet power. The story of their lives provides a snapshot into the history of Soviet dissent, from psychiatric hospitalization to forced exile, and from KGB interrogations to collaboration with Western news correspondents. Yet their trajectory was also marred by controversy with fellow dissidents, and in the post-Soviet era active support of authoritarian rulers, including Vladimir Putin.
Dr. Barbara Martin is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Basel, Switzerland. Her historical research, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation, focuses on Soviet dissent and the religious revival in late Soviet Russia. She is the author of Dissident Histories in the Soviet Union: From De-Stalinization to Perestroika (Bloomsbury, 2019).
