Russkaja Mysl ( Russian Русская мысль , "Russian Thought") is the oldest Russian-language publication still in existence in the European diaspora. The weekly newspaper, founded in Moscow in 1880 and "emigrated" to Paris in 1947, describes itself today as a pan-European magazine for the preservation and consolidation of the Russian diaspora in Western Europe.

history

Russkaya Mysl was founded in Moscow in 1880 and was originally the monthly publication of Russian liberal folk peoples . After the revolution of 1905 , the magazine became an organ of the Cadet Party and was edited by Pyotr Struwe . In 1918 the magazine was closed by the new Bolshevik state power and appeared from then until 1927 in Sofia , Prague and later in Paris .

From 1947 Russkaya Mysl was published again in Paris. There, the magazine was long regarded as an important mouthpiece for the Russian intelligentsia in the diaspora. Russkaja Mysl today has around 50,000 subscribers in 40 countries and describes itself as a pan-European magazine for the preservation and consolidation of the Russian diaspora in Western Europe.
