Из истории советского этнографического финно-угроведения 1940-1950-х годов

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the Soviet Finno-Ugric ethnographic studies during the Great Patriotic War and in the first post-war decade. The key point of the paper is the history of the intellectual dispute between D.V. Bubrikh and N.N. Cheboksarov about the development paths of the Finno-Ugric science in the USSR. It also highlights the influence of N.Ya. Marr’s ideas on the approaches to the interpretation of ethnographic materials and the discussion on the cosmopolitan impacts in the scientific texts of the Soviet Finno-Ugric researchers.
