Sergei Kruk " Ārtelpas skulptūras semiotika,ekonomika un politika : pieminekļu celtniecība un demontāža Latvijā, 1945-2010" is an interdisciplinary study on monuments as ideological tools in the politics of Latvia from 1945 to 2010. Alongside with the report on historical events the book also contains analysis of the semiotic models of sculpture. The study is based on archive documents on the politics of monument building as well as publications on the theory of aesthetics, art history and political propaganda. The author offers an in-depth research into the history and process of creation of particular monuments, taking the reader behind the scenes of political decision making, and gives the analysis of the relationship between Soviet ideology and economics, showing how the ruling power used monuments as tools for organizing of social rituals and construction of collective identity.The book is supplemented with documents issued by the Artists’ Union, Art Combine „Māksla”, Ministry of Culture, the Central Committee of the Communist Party and local governments on building and dismantling of monuments.
