Abstract
This article completes the series of publications, which explores the political and social phenomenon of the Russian dissent during his three-century history. It shows that the processes akin to convergence of the power and its opponents, primarily from intelligentsia, have first become apparent in the time of the Thaw and led to the mitigation of the confrontation between the power and dissenters. It has happened since this confrontation was caused not by ontological cruelty and psychopathology of people in law-enforcement bodies, but by century-long uncompromising class struggle in the Russian Empire and the USSR.
The collapse of the Soviet Union and the rejection of socialism have happened in the end of 20th century overall dynamically and bloodlessly. The majority of the Russians saw in socialism with the domination of the State in the major fields of activity the main cause of the degradation of economy, underdevelopment of social sphere, dissociation with the rest of the world professing different forms of individualism. The rejection of a dominant ideology fixed in the Constitution of the New Russia, active inculcation of individual and corporative entrepreneurship has made the traditional dissent senseless, but have given rise to its new forms; dissent as business, in particular.
Placidity in relation to disappearance “forever” of the “power-dissenters” confrontation has proved to be premature. In the future we have very likely to expect hot political discussions in the Internet and in power-controlled form in traditional media, but, in the main, young-people street protests. The goal of these coordinated and spontaneous actions – to take hold of information and power resources for the realization of no longer national but individual or corporative interests.
