The following two books are supposed to be 'discussions of academic politics in Stalinist and post-Stalinist Russia' (according to Francis Spufford's notes in  Red Plenty ):

Loren R. Graham (1972).  Science and Philosophy in the Soviet Union . New York: Alfred A. Knopf.
Slava Gerovitch (2002).  From Newspeak to Cyberspeak: A History of Soviet Cybernetics . Boston: The MIT Press.

   I’m not sure I would call it a methodological study, but there is an interesting essay by Leo Strauss on “Persecution and the Art of Writing” that addresses the issue. It’s published in a book of the same name, U. of Chicago Press, 1952.

    Dear all,
     
     One of the issues that strike me whenever I study economists who worked in difficult times and under illiberal regimes such as imperial Russia and Austria-Hungary or fascist Italy is the issue of censorship. This is particularly clear in the case of Marxist economists in 19th century Russia, such as Nikolaj Sieber on whom I am now writing togeher with Francois Allisson and Danila Raskov. Sieber published in censored Russian journals as well as illegal ones published abroad. Is there a methodological study on publication and rhetorical strategies adopted by economists at risk of being censored?
     
     
     Thank you for your help,
