Description
Collectivism is the basis for many socialist and Communist societies, where the emphasis is on the will and vitality of the people as a whole rather than as individuals. Hence, the red star behind the hand holding a wrench in this poster print denotes the Soviet Union as a political entity that would preach collectivism to its People's Republic throughout its history. The addition of crumbling plaster on the spray-painted wall seems relevant, since this superpower made a radical shift in recent history by giving up on Communism during Mikhail Gorbachev's administration.
