Russian term

Репрессированная наука

Russian to English Science History Репрессированная наука
I need to translate the title of one site.
It's called "Репрессированная наука".
My variant of translation "The Soviet Science under Stalin's Repressions".
Is it OK?

Discussion

To oppress is to exercise arbitrary authority. A minority in a country can be oppressed simply because it exists.
To suppress is to put an end to the activities, abolish, stop from publication, withhold from disclosure, exactly what would pertain to free exercise of science, thought, and ideas. Ideas can be suppressed but not oppressed. Scientist whose ideas have been suppressed may feel oppressed.

The reason for this might be Vygotsky’s fear of criticism
and censorship that might eventually become a threat to his career or even lead to political persecutions and criminal charges. Indeed, this was not an unlikely scenario in Stalinist Russia, although, at the same time, we believe that the horrors of the so-called “repressed science” ( repressirovannaia nauka) have been grossly overestimated by Western scholars of the Cold War era and their intellectual heirs in the Soviet Union from the late 1980s and until now (see discussion of these issuesin Chapters 1and 3 ). In any case, we are certainly aware of the phenomenon of “self-censorship” in Soviet culture and science and need to analyze our fi ndings from this perspective, too.

Andrews's work emphasises that scientists in the Soviet Union, while retaining a distinct sense of their identity, had to constantly interact with the Party-state. The question of the nature of such interaction isthe most fiercely debated topic in the history of Soviet science, although some authors continue to maintain a schematic picture of the Soviet Party-state unilaterally enforcing its will on 'repressed science'.

Do you want to add "Repressed Science in Stalinist Soviet Union" "...under Stalin's Regime," etc? It was the science that was repressed.

Oppression refers to harsh and unfair treatment. This can take place when one social group oppresses another group. On the other hand, Repression refers to the act of bringing under control by force.

<B>DISTINCTION
To oppress means to keep (someone) down by unjust force or authority. To repress is (1) to hold back, or (2) to put down by force. Suppress, which is broader and more common than the other two, means (1) to put an end to, (2) to inhibit, and (3) to keep from being revealed.
