Abstract. The article deals with the comparison of the reflection in the Soviet literature of the late of the 1940s-1950s and the 1970-1980s, respectively, of the Yugoslav and Chinese themes. The split of the USSR with the recently “fraternal” countries could not but be reflected in the literature. The specificity and duration of the controversy in both cases left an imprint on the number and frequency of publications of a critical nature, on the degree of reference to the topic in the domestic literature of the period of the bilateral split. In both cases, undoubted was the relationship of the character and content of works of the literature with propaganda image of the “countries of the apostate”, created the Soviet mass media and journalism. In both cases attended an interpretation in the negative light of individual episodes of the history of these countries and their Communist parties, sharp criticism of the domestic and foreign policy of the leading groups of “heretical” parties, of the emphasis on the anti-Soviet content of this policy; the leading groups and their political course was not identified with the people of Yugoslavia and China, separated from the ruling regimes. However, in the propaganda and the attitudes reflected in soviet literature, there were specific features associated with the specifics of both countries, the peculiarities of their historical path and with the level of development in the USSR of Balkan studies and Sinology during these periods. The latter circumstance, according to the author, resulted in a higher level of criticism in the USSR political course of Maoism in the 1970s – the first half of 1980s, in comparison with the anti-Tito propaganda a generation earlier. This is also noticeable in the comparison of literature, referring to the "years of the split".
Keywords: literature, Yugoslavia, China, split, Titoism, Maoism.
