MODERN HISTORIOGRAPHY REFLECTING THE ACTIVITIES PERFORMED BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE BODIES OF PUBLIC EDUCATION OF THE CHUVASH AUTONOMY IN THE 1920s – 1930s

Abstract

The article considers the content of works written by modern scientists of the Chuvash Republic from the point of view of their covering the issues related to the history of the activities performed by the Chuvash public education management bodies in the 1920s – 1930s – the Department of Public Education of the Chuvash Executive Committee of the Soviet, the People’s Commissariat for Education of the Chuvash ASSR, the departments of public education of volost, uyezd and district executive committees of the Soviets. It is concluded that the works of modern researchers provide little information about individual structural subdivisions of the regional public education department and their activities, and do not study the history of the Chuvash ASSR People’s Commissariat for Education, its successes and failures in the advancement of education. Based on the identification of the most studied aspects of the topic, the prospects for additional research in the field of the history of the activities performed by public education management bodies in the territory of Chuvashia in the first post-revolutionary decades are determined.
