Abstract

The article investigates the experience of teaching and educational work of the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics during the development of the soviet system of higher education in the 1920s - early 1940s. New sources, such as record-keeping documents of the Plekhanov University, which were kept in the Central State Archive of Moscow were introduced in academic turn-over. Documents of the University, as well as of events where the University participated were analyzed. New documents help disclose the work of the University faculty and staff aimed at making higher education accessible for working youth and solving problems in teaching and education in the process of tutors‘ and students‘ interaction. The authors came to the concludion that availability of pre-revolution traditions and adaptation to new conditions gave the University an opportunity to maintain classical basis of education, combine tradition and present day and strengthen its status as the first economics education institution in Russia.
