  Pavlik Morozov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pavel Trofimovich Morozov (November 14, 1918 - September 3, 1932), better known by diminutive Pavlik or Pavka, was a Soviet youth glorified by the Soviet Union propaganda as a martyr.
The elder Morozov was sentenced to ten years in a labor camp, and although his fate thereafter is unknown, it is thought that he did not long survive.
However, Pavlik's family did not take kindly to his activities: on September 3 of that year, his uncle, grandfather, grandmother and a cousin murdered him, along with his younger brother.

 Pavlik Morozov
In 1932, Pavlik Morozov, a fourteen-year old peasant lad was murdered allegedly in revenge for having denounced his father as a kulak who had hoarded grain.
Pavlik was lauded as a Soviet hero -- by, among others, Maksim Gorky at the Soviet Writers' Congress in 1934 -- and adopted by the Pioneers as their patron saint.
Pavlik accused him not of having hoarded grain, but rather of having attested that a recently arrived kulak deportee was a poor peasant from Gerasimovka.

 SISSCO - Rassegna stampa - History: Comrade Pavlik by Catriona Kelly
In real life, Morozov was a semi-literate, dark-haired teenager, born at the time of the revolution in Gerasimovka, a Russian village of stunning backwardness.
The Morozov case was a classic story of this kind, involving prior fights between different parts of the family, drunkenness and guns.
The Pavlik Morozov legend is indeed one of the keys to understanding the truly radical nature of Soviet ideology, since its moral was so terrifyingly clear: in the Soviet Union, old loyalties — including the natural loyalty that children feel to parents — were to be discarded, replaced by new loyalties.

However, Pavlik Morozov’s legend began as a murder story, when he and his brother Fyodor, aged thirteen and nine respectively, were found dead in the woods near the village of Gerasimovka, on the borders of the Urals and Western Siberia.
Over the next two years, Pavlik was to become nationally renowned, his biography rewritten to make it suitable for a child hero who stood for juvenile activism and for the capacity of the young to transform the Soviet countryside, and Soviet society in general.
Though incidental details of Pavlik’s appearance, family circumstances, and character kept on changing, he was always represented as the victim of traitors to the Soviet state, and as a heroic example of self-sacrifice.

 New Statesman - Goody two-shoes
The tale of Pavlik Morozov was one of the most enduring legends of the communist era.
Pavlik, so the story went, was a blue-eyed, blonde-haired Pioneer who squealed on his father to the Soviet authorities in the early 1930s for hoarding grain and not giving it up to the collective farm.
The Pavlik myth, which was peddled to millions of Soviet schoolchildren from 1932 onwards, was loosely based on a true story - the murder of 13-year-old Pavel Morozov and his brother Fyodor in Gerasimovka in west- ern Siberia.

Indeed, it was not Morozov who betrayed his father, but the father who betrayed his son: "It was difficult to the point of tears for the boy to endure the treachery of the father." Later histories seldom mention the boy at all.
The name "Morozov" is adopted in the USSR and other socialist countries for a multitude of streets, schools, libraries, camps, parks, Pioneer troops, collective farms, cultural centers, Pioneer lodges, and even entire forests (doubtlessly in view of the fact that Pavlik and Fedya Morozov were murdered in the woods).
Pavlik Morozov may be tinted, condemned, withdrawn, restored, or altogether withdrawn--all evidence of the myth's malleability, its very fragility.

Pavel — or Pavlik, as everyone started to call him as a term of endearment — was turned into an object of devotion.
Trofim had undoubtedly left the village under a cloud, and this had meant Pavlik had become the man of the abandoned household, but it is quite possible that the motive for murder had nothing directly to do with Trofim.
Kelly concludes that the Morozov cult was counter-productive.

When Russia was in the throes of Joseph Stalin's campaign for the forced collectivization of Soviet agriculture, a young boy named Pavlik Morozov informed the OGPU (now called the KGB) that his father was an enemy of the regime.
As Druzhnikov pieced together the story about Morozov's life, death, and legacy from interviews, books, court documents, and newspaper reports, it became clear that the campaign to keep Morozov a hero was centrally directed.
Informer hero number 001, as Morozov came to be known, remained a fearful reminder to all; to those who inform, and those who become the victims of denunciations.
