Novoye Slovo

The first incarnation of Novoe Slovo was originally run by moderate narodniks (populists).

In April 1897 the magazine was taken over by Legal Marxists[1] and edited by them until it was shut down by the Tsarist government in December 1897.

Novoe Slovo contributors included prominent Legal Marxists Peter Struve, Mikhail Tugan-Baranovsky, Sergei Bulgakov as well as revolutionary Marxists Georgy Plekhanov, Vladimir Lenin, Julius Martov and Vera Zasulich.

Maxim Gorky, an increasingly popular realist writer who was close to Russian Marxists, was also published in the magazine.

From 1933 to 1944 a newspaper of White émigrés named Novoye Slovo appeared in Berlin.
