Znanie — Sila (Russian: Знание-сила, Knowledge is Power) is a monthly illustrated popular science magazine for youth. It publishes popular articles in various areas of science and science fiction stories.[1]
The title is the aphorism Scientia potentia est in Russian.
History
It was established in 1926 targeting teenagers. In 1928, the coverage of life sciences was transferred to the new magazine Young Naturalist, while the rest of sciences continued to be covered by Knowledge is Power. During 1941-1945 (World War II) the magazine was in a hiatus. Since 1946 the target audience also included young adults. After the collapse of the Soviet Union and loss of the state patronage the staff of the magazine and it circulation were severely trimmed.[2]
