The article studies the problems of the transformation of the language practices of the university intelligentsia of the Kazan province / Tatar ASSR in the 1920s-1930s. The forms and practices of changing the communicative space of the university intelligentsia of the early Soviet period are considered. A number of fundamental questions have been raised about the effectiveness and consequences of the policy of the Soviet government in the field of socio-cultural transformations. Since the study of language practices is based on a phenomenological idea of socio-cultural transformations, and on the analysis of a number of archival documents, the article presents a number of communicative practices of the intelligentsia itself, as well as forms of change in the language professional space by the authorities. The paper concludes that the scientific intelligentsia, under the pressure of external circumstances, was forced to take an active part in the formation of a new language and change itself.
