Sovietization (Russian: советизация, romanized: sovyetizatsiya) is the adoption of a political system based on the model of soviets (workers' councils) or the adoption of a way of life, mentality, and culture modeled after the Soviet Union. This often included adopting the Cyrillic script and sometimes also the Russian language.
A notable wave of Sovietization (in the second meaning) occurred during the
Soviet sphere of influence. In modern history, Sovietization refers to the copying of models of Soviet life (the cult of the leader's personality, collectivist ideology, mandatory participation in propaganda activities, etc.).[3][4][5]
In a narrow sense, the term Sovietization is often applied to mental and social changes within the population of the Soviet Union and its satellites,[6] which led to creation of the new Soviet man (according to its supporters) or Homo Sovieticus (according to its critics).[7][8]
