This research is dedicated to the figure of Josip Broz Tito, long-term ruler of Yugoslavia, and to the representations of his figure in Soviet and Russian public discourse in 1980-1993.

In this work will be used notes, articles, historiography dedicated or related to Tito and published or created from 1980 till 1993. Using these subjects in this research, it becomes possible to find “true” representations of Josip Broz Tito in the Soviet and Russian public discourse during the declared period.
