Abstract

In an article based on unpublished archival documents from the funds of the Department of Public Education, the Office of the minister S. S. Uvarov and the collection of the Imperial decrees, rescripts and loyal reports, the “restraining” elements of the imperial policy in education, their mechanisms and features on the territory of the “provinces returned from Poland” are analyzed. Particular attention is given to the reasons of administrators’ struggle with Polish influence in educational institutions. In the context of the “depolonization” policy, minister S. S. Uvarov’s project on the creation of the University of St. Vladimir in Kiev and its practical implementation are examined. The problem of the limited power of the Ministry of Public Education in the entrusted affairs due to the predominance of emergency mechanisms of administrative and police control in the territory of the Kiev educational district is also being investigated.
