| Tiivistelmä: | Symbols play an important role in the politics of all societies. An important symbol in post-communist Russia has been Vladimir Lenin's body and, especially, the debate on whether it should remain in the mausoleum or whether it should be buried. Public opinion poll data throw some light on this, enabling to evaluate the role of Lenin's body in contemporary politics in terms of notions of identity, legitimation, chronology and morality. |
