Attempts at Introducing Communist Rituals in the Family Traditions and Holydays: Case Study on Moldavian SSR
Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2014, Vol 20, Issue 1
Abstract
This article focuses on the state policies to introduce Communist rituals in the family and wedding traditions in the Soviet Union in general and in Soviet Moldavia particularly. In general, Soviet holidays can be classified as follows: historical and revolutionary festivals, celebrations dedicated to various professions, that is, professional holidays, public holidays called dedication, calendar, and family and everyday celebrations and rituals. Among the conclusions of the article is that although all measures for the introduction of new traditions and customs in the family sphere of Soviet Moldavia have been made, they were as a rule in vain. Despite the tendency of the Soviet regime to establish the daily control on the society, after all the national customs, traditions, cultural values were preserved due to the fact that the family has remained one of those social institutions that hindered the process.
