Résumé (en anglais)

An objective of the paper: social attitudes towards built legacy of second half of 20th century in post-soviet area. The case of Lithuania was taken as a reflection of the processes in all ex-soviet block. Rather poor quality of construction and materials, saturation with communist ideology and consequently “bad” politicized memories, seems inseparable from Soviet time architecture. However, despite of being “post-soviet” this legacy reflects a certain period of architectural and cultural development and naturally deserves of being listed as a heritage. The paper discloses the recent tendencies implying that successful preservation of this dissonant heritage greatly depends on social attitudes. First of all it means reshaping the collective attitude/memory, i. e. finding a way to neutralize the negative connotations with political past, and to make these spaces to represent the general history of architecture and culture.
