Chto takoe intelligentsiia (What is the Intelligentsia?) by Ivanov-Razumnik, originally published in 1920, delves into the complex identity and role of the Russian intelligentsia. This work offers a critical examination of the intellectual class in Russia during a period of profound social and political upheaval.
