The paper presents an analytical review of the planned structure and compositional division of the «USSR» competition («Leninism and the Leninist myth as the basis of Soviet ideocracy») being prepared within the framework of the RFBR project No. 21-011-43076, a large (about 50 printed sheets) anthology, which has working title «Lenin and Lenin’s myth in world fiction.» The compilers of the anthology, working in the pro et contra strategy, expect that the volume about Lenin and the reflection of his image and personality in Russian and world literature will become one of the most complete, most capacious and meaningfully complex publications dedicated to the portrait of the great leader of the world proletariat, actualizing its ambiguous image in different planes of modern social consciousness.
