🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The concept of 'Blat' and personal patronage is historically significant. Having a 'krysha' (roof/protection) or being 'under a wing' was often the only way to survive the Soviet system. Mentorship (наставничество) was a formalized state policy in factories. Every experienced worker had to take a young worker under their wing. In 19th-century Russian literature, this phrase often appears in the context of 'benefactors' who support poor but talented protagonists. In the modern Russian tech scene, 'taking under the wing' is often used by venture capitalists or incubators when talking about startups.
