Социальная политика бурятских ведомств в XIX – начале XX в. и ее отражение в советской историографии (1920-е – середина 1950-х гг.)

Abstract

The article aims to determine the specific features and results of research by Soviet historians in the period from the 1920s to the mid-1950s on the problem of social policy of Buryat departments. Therefore, the task is to analyze researches on a problem and to characterize the relationship between them and the conditions in which they were produced. Soviet historians formed, in accordance with the main directions of social policy a holistic view of the organizing role of self-government in the education of the Buryats. Data were obtained on attempts to organize the work of health care. In the context of work on social charity, the transformation of forms of generic mutual assistance into forms of non-economic exploitation is considered. These results were obtained during the development of the Marxist historical concept, which, in turn, fell under the influence of ideological attitudes and had to meet the requirements of the national policy of the Communist Party. In the second half of the 1930s and in the 1940s despite the damage suffered, historians have managed to achieve results.
