In an interview posted on Arkhnadzor's Web site, Rustam Rakhmatullin frames the activities of the association purely in terms of a metanarrative of progress that is identified with increasing degrees of self-control: “Self-limitation,” he states, “this is progress, whether it be in a historical city, or in the soul of people.” “Sut’ voprosa” (29 October 2009), at http://www.archnadzor.ru/sut-voprosa/ (last accessed 21 September 2012).
