Deaf History

This introduction presents an overview of deaf history in the Soviet context, and establishes the central themes – marginality, community and identity – that frame the monograph. It considers how deafness was defined in USSR, looking particularly at the intersection of medical and social models, and the impact of revolutionary ideology on Soviet approaches to deafness. It also discusses how Soviet deaf history engages with, and complicates, existing understandings of marginal identity in the USSR, and adds a new, socialist perspective to the growing literature on deafness and deaf history in the global context.
