Abstract

The purpose of the article is to single out and analyze the manifestations of criticism of different ideologies in the Ukrainian historical and pedagogical narrative of the Soviet era (1920 – 1980’s). The study of the methodological foundation of Ukrainian historical and pedagogical science is not possible without considering the influence of ideological doctrines on the scientific work of domestic scientists who have studied the history of pedagogical thought and education. In the ХХth century the largest influence on the historical and pedagogical texts of Ukrainian researchers was exerted by the socialist ideology of the Marxist model, being, in fact, the only state doctrine in the Soviet Union in general and Soviet Ukraine in particular. The ideological dictatorship of pedagogical and historical-pedagogical science, being under totalitarianism, among the defense of the basic theoretical constructs of socialist ideology (so-called “Marxism-Leninism”), provided an uncompromising struggle against other ideological systems. Ukrainian researchers who lived and worked in Soviet Ukraine criticized liberal, social democratic, nationalist, fascist, and National Socialist ideas and their representatives, even the researching of history of education and pedagogy.In addition, the influence of the complex intra-party struggle in the USSR on the work of historians of pedagogy has been studied. In particular, it is investigated that the critique of the ideas of L. Trotsky, M. Bukharin, the views of M. Skrypnyk, O. Shumskiy appeared in the works of researchers of the history of education and pedagogical thought.We consider the identification and analysis of other aspects of the influence of socialist ideology and propaganda to be a promising area of further research.
