The fate of politicians has been uneven at all times. People who choose this path must be ready for both triumph and hardship. The revolution that destroyed the Soviet Union created a huge number of precedents of this kind. Sergei Borisovich Stankevich deliberately got involved in the struggle to change the socio-economic structure of his native state.
Young reformer
The state structure and economic model of the "Land of Soviets" were harshly criticized by both foreign experts and domestic innovators. From a certain historical period, general formulations were transformed into a specific action plan, and from that moment perestroika began in the country. Sergei Borisovich Stankevich is known to people of the older generation as an active participant in social transformations that took place at the end of the 80s in the early 90s.
In the biography of the new wave politician, it is noted that Stankevich was born on February 25, 1954 in an intelligent family. Parents lived at that time in Shchelkovo near Moscow. The child dreamed of moving from a standard apartment in a multi-storey panel building to a more comfortable apartment. As subsequent events showed, this childhood dream came true. At school, Sergei studied well. I got along with my classmates. On the street he was not offended. When the time came to get higher education, Stankevich chose the history department of the local pedagogical institute.
After receiving his diploma, Sergei went to work as teachers at the Moscow Oil Institute. The young man was not interested in how the oil and gas workers live. As part of the popular interest in countries with a capitalist form of management, he became interested in parliamentary methods of struggle in the United States. In order to write and defend his Ph. D. thesis, Stankevich had to go to the academic institute of general history.
On the political wave
At the end of the 80s, a significant part of engineering and technical workers and young workers were carried away by social activities. Stankevich's political career began with joining the CPSU in the spring of 1986. A year later, he became one of the founders and active members of the capital's Popular Front. At that time, almost all informal organizations called themselves "people's". Sergei Borisovich was one of the first to understand that restructuring in the country is inevitable. The people's love for the Party has ended.
In 1990, Stankevich was elected a deputy of the Moscow City Council. After the destruction of the Soviet Union, he actively works in various social structures. Films and TV reports are being made about his activities as an advisor to the President of the Russian Federation. Sergei Borisovich is elected a deputy of the State Duma of the first convocation. Along with the stormy activity on political fronts, Stankevich takes part in various commercial projects. Indiscriminate communication leads to serious trouble.
In 1995, Stankevich was forced to leave the Russian Federation and go into exile. He had to spend several months in the dungeons of a Polish prison. The fugitive politician was able to return to Russia only at the beginning of 2000. Compatriots greeted him cool. The personal life of Sergei Stankevich throughout his adult life remains unchanged. The husband and wife raised their daughter, who studied in London and works as a designer.
