苏联政府压抑的科学研究

有一系列科学研究受到苏联政府的压抑,相关研究员经常受到不公正对待,动辄被贴上“资产阶级学者”的标签。

生物学

[编辑]

1930年代中期起,李森科斯大林支持下发动了一场反对基因遗传学的运动。[1]该学说的创始人孟德尔是一个天主教聖職人員,这一点格外地激怒斯大林。[2][3][4][5]

语言学

[编辑]

斯大林上台时,尼古拉·马尔雅弗理论居于统治地位,他认为语言是一种阶级构成。斯大林读到了一封齐克巴瓦的反对马尔的来信,于是把他召来进行了一次几个小时的谈话,作了大量的笔记。[6]于是他找到了足够的材料来反对马尔,结束了后者在苏联语言学界的统治地位,而斯大林自己就语言学只写过一篇论文,《马克思主义和语言学问题》。[7]斯大林统治下也把比较语言学打为伪科学[8]

控制论

[编辑]

斯大林也认定魏纳控制论为“资产阶级伪科学”。[9]在苏联,意识形态期刊《哲学问题》在1953年的一篇文章中评价控制论为“帝国主义者没有办法摧毁资本主义中的根本矛盾,他们不能阻止即将发生的经济危机。所以,他们尝试从狂热的军备竞赛和意识形态战争中寻找答案。在深层的绝望中,他们寻求伪科学带来的一线希望以苟延残喘”,1954年版《简明哲学词典》中称控制论为“反动的伪科学,首先出现在二战后的美国,后广泛传播于资本主义国家,是一种现代的机械论。”[10]
