The name «красный уголок» is a takeoff on «красный угол» (see У-30), with «красный» in this case meaning "related to a revolution or a socialist regime." Originally used by the Communist Party as a site for Communist agitation, Party functions, and the dispersal of propaganda, the room was later put to more general use, but it long retained certain Party-related features, such as a ready supply of Communist literature.
