Abstract
The article analyzes the Soviet historical-party and modern Russian historiography devoted to the problems of training nomenklatura cadres in the USSR. Eight chronological stages of the development of national historical knowledge about the preparation of party reserves are distinguished: 1) 1918–1927; 2) 1928–1955; 3) 1956–1964; 4) 1965–1985; 5) 1985–1991; 6) 1992–1999; 7) 2000–2013; 8) 2014 – present. It is emphasized that Russian historiography developed from the theoretical generalization of practical issues of the construction of school for training Soviet government and Communist Party workers and communist higher educational institu-tions in the country to large regional investigations of the nomenclature corps of the Soviet period and factual reviews of the history of the development of certain higher party educational institutions of the CPSU. The change in the social image of managers that took place by the end of the Soviet period and the replacement of the mobilization approach to the recruitment of nomenklatura personnel by a competence-based approach led to the curtailment of the CPSU party educational institutions.
