The book includes examples from the 1960s through to the 1980s, but focuses on posters produced during Mikhail Gorbachev's campaign initiated in 1985. These posters attempted to sober up Soviet citizens by forcing them to confront the issues associated with excessive alcohol consumption. This government-led urgency allowed the poster designers to present the anti-alcohol message in the most graphic terms: they depicted drunks literally trapped inside the bottle or being strangled by 'the green snake'. Their protagonists are paralytic freeloaders and shirkers who always neglect their families, drive under the influence, produce substandard work, are smashed when pregnant and present a constant danger to fellow citizens. A two-part essay by renowned cultural historian Alexei Plutser-Sarno attempts to explain, from a Russian perspective, the reasons behind this phenomenon. 650 0 $a Posters $z Soviet Union. 650 0 $a Alcoholism $z Soviet Union $v Posters. 650 0 $a Alcoholism $z Soviet Union $x Prevention $v Posters. 650 0 $a Alcoholism $x Government policy $z Soviet Union $v Posters. 650 0 $a Distilling, Illicit $z Soviet Union $v Posters. 650 0 $a Distilling, Illicit $x Government policy $z Soviet Union $v Posters. 650 7 $a Alkoholismus. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Antialkoholismus. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Plakat. $2 gnd 651 7 $a Sowjetunion. $2 gnd 700 1 $a Murray, Damon, $e compiler. $e compiler. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb99106072 700 1 $a Sorrell, Stephen, $e compiler. $e compiler. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb99106073 700 1 $a Plutser-Sarno, Alexei, $e writer of essays. 830 0 $a Russian series (Academic International Press) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n42021441 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217023737.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B7506EEAEC6911E7AF65C16E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
