Vozhdi of the world's proletariat: Marx, Engels, Lenin and Stalin (1 May 1953, Berlin, GDR).Ogoniok 1934 cover featuring portraits of Stalin and Gorky with a text that ends: "Thus did Comrade Stalin, beloved Vozhd of the world's proletariat, define the role of the Soviet writer."
In most Slavic languages the official and colloquial usage of the designation has nowadays been discontinued in favor of (at least) two more precise derivates, one meaning "a leader" and another one "a commander" (e.g., in Polish: przywódca and dowódca, respectively); therefore, the original term may typically be encountered exclusively in historical or ironic contexts; otherwise occasionally only when referring to extant foreign tribal communities.
In modern Russian, vozhd became exclusive for Communist leaders or leaders of aboriginal tribes. The word is becoming somewhat obsolete and is being replaced[citation needed] by its English version, "leader". It is a counterpart to the word Führer in German.[7]
After the East German cinema studio DEFA began mass-producing Red Western movies depicting the "Wild West" in the 18th and 19th centuries, the term vozhd became closely associated with tribal chiefs of Native Americans (such as Vozhd Beloye Pero, i. e. Chief White Feather.)
Vozhd also has connotations to "master" in the Russian language, from the days of serfdom.[8]
^vožd is a loanword from Russian. Not to be confused with the regular Serbo-Croatian noun vođa.
