Reasons for Reading

At that time, "democracy" wasn't yet a dirty word in Russia. People associated their future better life with the word "democracy," without even understanding what it meant. Since the word "democracy" appealed to the people, many wanted to call themselves democrats.
And for the 1990 elections, a broad movement, "Democratic Elections - 90" (DV-90), was organized on the basis of the Leningrad People's front (LPF). Along with the LNF veterans, this movement included such organizations as the creative unions of scientists, the Perestroika club, the Independent Trade Unions "Unity" and "Justice," "Residents of Siege of Leningrad," and, finally, the party club "Democratic Platform in the CPSU." This, of course, diluted the radicalism of the LPF.

«Демократия» в те поры еще не было в России ругательным словом. Именно со словом «демократия» народ ассоциировал свою будущую лучшую жизнь, совершенно не понимая, что это слово значит. Поскольку слово демократия народу нравилось, демократами хотели называться очень многие.
И к выборам 1990 года на базе ЛНФ было организовано широкое движение «Демократические выборы — 90» (ДВ-90). В это движение наряду с фронтовиками из ЛНФ вошли такие организации, как творческие союзы ученых, клуб «Перестройка», Независимые профсоюзы «Единство» и Справедливость», «Жители блокадного Ленинграда» и, наконец, партийный клуб «Демократическая платформа в КПСС». Это, конечно, разбавило радикальность ЛНФ.

Opening Paragraph

The transformation of the country's social order into socialism with a human face, begun in 1985 by the foremen of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU), stalled for the first three years. Gorbachev, the nightingale of perestroika, sang from every platform like a siren, calling on the people to join in this process, but the people remained silent. No clubs in support of "Perestroika" sprang up.
It took three years of titanic effort by the CPSU-controlled media, led by the magazine "Ogonyok," to get not only dissidents but also the people to stir even slightly.

The founding congress of the Leningrad People's Front (LPF) in 1989 adopted its Manifesto. What political identity did this organization have? The Manifesto stated that the LPF is a movement for democracy, civil liberties, and radical economic reform. Democracy, according to the founders of the Leningrad Popular Front, was embodied in the slogan "All power to the democratically elected Soviets!" Civil liberties must be realized through the full implementation of all the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Economic reform must lead to overcoming people's alienation from the results of their labor and the means of production under the slogans "Enterprises to the workers!" and "Land to the peasants!" Thus, the Leningrad Popular Front emerged as the most radical non-capitalist movement in the country.

Начатое в 1985 году прорабами из КПСС преобразование общественного строя страны в социализм с человеческим лицом первые три года буксовало на одном месте. Соловей перестройки — Горбачев — со всех трибун пел сиреной, призывая народ включиться в этот процесс, но народ безмолвствовал. Никаких клубов в поддержку «Перестройки» не возникало.
Три года титанических усилий понадобилось подконтрольным КПСС средствам массовой информации во главе с журналом «Огонек» для того, чтобы не только диссиденты, но и народ хоть чуть-чуть зашевелился.
Учредительный съезд ЛНФ (Ленинградский Народный фронт) в 1989 году принял свой Манифест. Какое же политическое лицо получилось у этой организации? В Манифесте сказано, что ЛНФ это движение за демократию, гражданские свободы и радикальную экономическую реформу. Демократия, по мнению учредителей ЛНФ, заключалась в лозунге «Вся власть — демократически избранным Советам!». Гражданские свободы должны быть реализованы путем полного воплощения всех принципов Всеобщей Декларации прав человека. Экономическая реформа должна привести к преодолению отчуждения людей от результатов их труда и средств производства под лозунгами «Предприятия — трудящимся!» и «Земля — крестьянам!». Таким образом, Ленинградский Народный фронт оказался самым радикальным в стране движением некапиталистической направленности.
