| Soviet ideology propagated an ideal of an egalitarian society which was symbolised by a scarcely differentiated income structure. Therefore, many former Soviet citizens regard money as a negative marker of social change. On the basis of 42 interviews the article analyses money practices of women and men in the late Soviet Union. It shows that nowadays the respondents attribute a higher significance to money than in Soviet times, because it more or less substituted bartering and social networks. However, their narratives on Soviet money practices reveal that money was, in contrast to official propaganda, a special means of communication as it contributed to social differential through consumer styles. Women and men described different subjective practices and attitudes; money contributed to women’s self-reliance and communicated individuality. However, mainly men objected to ostentatious money practices whereas mainly women condemned a tactical or “rational” way of spending money. | |
