Problems of Everyday Life: Creating the Foundations for A New Society in Revolutionary Russia or Problems of Every Day Life: And Other Writings on Culture and Science are a selection of articles and party speeches by Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky on a variety of cultural and scientific matters.[1]
These collections documented his perspective from the closing interlude of the Civil War in 1923 until his final years in exile in Mexico from 1937-1940. In these writings, Trotsky presented his views on a number of cultural areas which relate to aesthetic art, civility in public life, the emancipation of women, universal education, science and technology and dialectical materialism.[1]
In the interregnum period following the Russian Civil War, Trotsky diverted his personal attention towards cultural matters as a foundational element of socialist reconstruction.[1]
