Abstract

N. S. Khrushchev's speech of 1954 took the professional architectural society by surprise. It was urgently necessary to absorb the abroad experience of the modern architecture, there were no teachers, no study texts. The Union of Architects appealed to assist the young architects, yesterday alumni. A year after the “historical” decree on architectural excesses appeared. More than half a century has passed but its harmful impact is felt even now.
