The book continues the semantic series of those scientific works that explore the phenomenon of Soviet city in its historical formation and development. The author sets the task to find out how the formation of a new model of society influenced the economic, social, and cultural development of the northern port city, how the social appearance and everyday life of the townspeople changed at historical turning points, and what strategies and social practices they used to solve the most pressing problems of their everyday existence. The classical approach to the study of urban society is combined in the study with approaches characteristic of historical anthropology. The study of survival strategies transmitted from one generation to another is important not only in scientific terms, but also for public self-awareness and historical reflection.</p>история повседневностиэкстремальная повседневностьАрхангельскиндустриализацияВеликая Отечественная (Вторая мировая) война.everyday life historyextreme everyday lifeArkhangelskindustrializationGreat Patriotic War (World War II).[Assman 2004 – Аssman J.
