Proletarskaya Kul'tura

Proletarskaya Kul'tura (English: Proletarian Culture) was a magazine published by Proletkult.

It was an important political and cultural publication in Russia following the Bolshevik seizure of power. It was edited by Pavel Lebedev-Polianskii and Fedor Kalinin. They published such writers as Alexander Bogdanov and Aleksei Gastev.

In summer 1919, Rogozinsky's proposal to turn the Proletarian University into the Sverdlov Proletarian University, a proposal accompanied by restrictions in scope limited to creating a training school for government and party officials. That was backed up by an article in Izvestiya distinguishing between a 'proletarian' and 'communist' university, which would mean focusing on training party activists. Research into proletarian science, or producinga "Workers' Encyclopedia" would be set aside. When Maria Smit, a professor at the Proletarian University, submitted a response which said that it was necessary to train leaders as well as organisers Izvestiya declined to publish it, and it appeared in Proletarskaya Kul'tura.
