1. Sultan Galiev, in a key article, written in 1925, claims to use ‘Energetic Materialist’ method; referring to a more radical and non-Eurocentric version of His-Dia-Mat
2. In his, 1923, auto-biographical testimony Galiev mentions A. Bogdanov, a popular teacher with whom he met in 1913 and formed a rev. org. in Kazan.

Out of initial readings, private correspondence with experts and people working on the issue; like Kowalewsky, Kakinc, Reyhan, Tompsett, Blanc, Renault, Rowles, so on, and initial social network mapping...
