Pamyat
The National Patriotic Front "Memory" (NPF "Memory"; Russian: Национально-патриотический фронт «Память»; НПФ «Память», also known as the Pamyat Society; Russian: Общество «Память», Russian: Obshchestvo «Pamyat», Russian pronunciation: [ˈpamʲɪtʲ]) was a Russian far-right antisemitic, and monarchist organization.
Pamyat also identified itself as the "People's National-Patriotic Orthodox Christian movement." The group's stated focus is preserving Russian culture. Its longtime leader, Dmitri Vasilyev, died in 2003. The group had disappeared by the 1990s and split into groups like Russian National Unity.
At the end of the 1970s, the amateur historical and cultural association Vityaz (Витязь, lit. "Knight") was established by public activists from the Moscow branch of the Society for the Protection of Historical and Cultural Monuments. One of the purposes of the newly formed association was to prepare for the upcoming celebration of the 600th anniversary of the Battle of Kulikovo.
Some notable Vityaz activists in Moscow were Ilya Glazunov and V. Kuznetsov (artists), S. Malyshev (historian), A. Lebedev and A. Lobzov (Colonels of the MVD), G. Frygin (Minaviaprom engineer), Vyacheslav and Yevgeny Popov (musicians), and K. Andreyev (locksmith). Similar groups were created in other regions of the Soviet Union.
Vityaz and some other informal groups founded Pamyat as a public organization in Moscow in 1980. Pamyat took its name from the famous essay novel of the same name by Vladimir Chivilikhin.
Paul Klebnikov, in his book The Godfather of the Kremlin, Boris Berezovsky, or the Story of the Plundering of Russia, refers to Oleg Kalugin and writes that "the nationalist group Pamyat… was formed with the help of the KGB."
At an internal meeting on October 4, 1985, Pamyat split into several factions, many of which attempted to retain the same name as the "true" Pamyat. One of them, the so-called Vasilyev's group, led by Dmitri Vasilyev (a former worker in Glazunov's studio), A. Andreyev, and A. Gladkov, focused its activities on the media.
By the end of 1986, Pamyat's leaders claimed to be the main ideologues of the emerging Russian nationalist movement.
