Why do we need a myth about literate tsarist Russia
Poster: "Light and knowledge for the people!"

Citizens who were educated in the USSR knew from school that the majority of the population of tsarist Russia was illiterate, and the Bolsheviks who came to power after the Great October Socialist Revolution developed and implemented a program of general education.
However, after "perestroika" and the victory of "democracy" they stopped talking about it and began to tell children about the "bloody red commissars" and "Russia, which we have lost." Among these stories is the myth of the high level of education in pre-revolutionary Russia.

What was the situation with education in tsarist Russia


In general, it should be noted that the level of education of the population was consistently raised in tsarist Russia. The empire needed officers, engineers, architects, scientists, doctors and skilled workers. Higher education in the Russian Empire under Tsar Nicholas II, in general, was the best in Europe (in terms of the number of students and quality). However, it is worth noting that higher education was received mainly by representatives of the upper social strata - children of nobles, military men, officials, the bourgeoisie, and the intelligentsia. That is, those who received primary and secondary education and could continue their education.



The budget of the Ministry of Public Education grew rapidly. In addition, the schools were financed by the military, the Synod, the zemstvos and the city. The successes in education were obvious: there were 1896 thousand primary schools in 78, and over 1914 thousand in 119; the number of gymnasiums (secondary educational institutions) in 1892 was 239, and in 1914 - 2300; the number of students in 1896 was 3,8 million, in 1914 - 9,7 million; the number of teachers in 1896 was 114 thousand, in 1914 - 280 thousand; the number of students in 1890 - 12,5 thousand, in 1914 - 127 thousand

According to the first complete census of the population of Russia in 1897, 22,7% of the literate were identified in the country (together with Finland). By 1914, about a third of the population was literate to one degree or another. But this is on average. There were more literate people in Russian Poland, Finland, the European part of Russia, and in cities. In Turkestan and the Caucasus, the number of illiterates could be up to 90%, the low level was in rural areas. A person who could write his last name could also be literate. Women had a low level of education. A significant part of the children did not study anywhere at all.

Thus, education in tsarist Russia developed, and during the reign of Nicholas II at a very rapid pace. This was due to the need to modernize the country, general global trends. There were objective difficulties: a huge territory, a large population (then we were second only to China and India), underdeveloped national outskirts, where slavery existed until recently, tribal traditions dominated, etc. The myth of the "hopelessly backward", "dark" Russian empire and the "prison of peoples" was created by the enemies of Russia, the Westernizers, among whom there were also internationalist revolutionaries.

The myth of literate tsarist Russia


Obviously, if not for the world war, revolution and the Civil War, the level of education of the population of the Russian Empire also increased significantly. However, the new monarchists and supporters of "Russia We Lost" go further and argue that Russia was literate before 1917.

For example, Bishop Tikhon (Shevkunov) of Yegoryevsk during the lecture "The February Revolution: What Was It?" of September 3, 2017 in Yekaterinburg reported:

“In 1920, the newly minted Ministry of Education, which was then called the People's Commissariat for Education, decided to study what literacy was in the Soviets, the then new Soviet Russia. And a census of the literate population was carried out in this very backward, illiterate, dark Russia. 1920 is the third year of the Civil War. We understand that most schools do not work, devastation, paying teachers are always huge problems, and so on. So, it turned out that teenagers from 12 to 16 years old are 86% literate. "

Accordingly, the conclusion is drawn: these children were educated back in tsarist Russia.

What does the 1920 census really show?

There was no age division at all in the preliminary census results. It provides the state of education: the number of educational institutions, students (5,9 million). Also, the total number of citizens of the RSFSR and Ukraine (excluding the regions where the Civil War continues), it was 131,5 million people. In later documents of the Central Statistical Office of 1922-1923, the literacy of the population according to the results of the 1920 census is indicated - more than 37%. There is a breakdown by age, but not marked by Bishop Tikhon from 12 to 16 years old, but from 8 to 15 years old. 49% of literate children aged 8-15 years. It should be remembered that during the 1920 census, the criteria for assessing literacy were broadened as much as possible - those who could read syllables and write their surname in their native or Russian language were considered literate.

How many children were there at the time?

The average values ​​of the modern period are more than a third of the population. Then the birth rate was much higher, the population was much younger. In a more accurate 1926 census of the USSR, in which there are age groups, from 147 million people under 19 years old - 71,3 million. The census presents age groups from 10 to 14 and from 15 to 19 years. That is, it is impossible to calculate how many children there were at the age of 12-16. Summing up the two groups, we get 33,9 million people, of which 20,3 million were literate. This is two-thirds, and this is a broader age group, not 86%. Moreover, this is data from 1926, not 1920.

Thus, the Bolsheviks got a heavy legacy. They had not only to create first a universal 4-year education (then 7 and 10 years), but also to conduct an educational program among adults and at an accelerated pace. So, about 40 million illiterates passed through the educational program, and by the beginning of the 40s, literacy among the population under the age of 50 was over 90%. The problem of illiteracy in the country was practically solved. The Bolsheviks were able to do what the tsars had not done before them: they made a qualitative leap, not only caught up with, but also overtook all the advanced countries of the West. The Russian school became the best in the world, hence all the subsequent successes of the USSR in science, technology, space, atom, military affairs, etc. It is worth remembering that the best traditions of the Russian classical (pre-revolutionary) school were fully inherited by the Soviet school as well.


N. Bogdanov-Belsky. "Sunday Reading in a Country School", 1895

"Russia We Lost"


Why did they create and support the myth of the high level of education in the Russian Empire?

Up to 80% educated. The fact is that a caste-estate society has been formed in the Russian Federation for three decades. Where there are the successful and the rich, for whom Russia is a country of opportunities, and everyone else is the poor, the poor and the losers, who supposedly do not want to develop and do business. A caste of "new nobles" who are completely satisfied with such a state of affairs when 90% of all the wealth of the country belongs to 2-3% of the population. It is for this caste that the myth of "Russia we have lost" is being formed. Like, everything was fine, beautiful, decorous and noble. But the "bloody Bolsheviks" came and destroyed this paradise.

They prefer not to voice the facts that the Romanovs themselves led Russia to the catastrophe of 1917. As well as the fact that the February Revolution and the destruction of tsarist Russia were not the work of the Red Commissars and Red Guards, but of the then Russian elite, including representatives of the Romanov dynasty, the aristocracy, generals, the highest bureaucracy, the Duma, and leading political parties. They are also silent about the fact that the Bolsheviks saved historical Russia from complete destruction and the seizure of its lands by other powers. That the Bolsheviks recreated the Russian statehood (in the form of the Soviet one) and this was a stage in the qualitative historical ascent of Russia, and not a dead-end path of development.

Therefore, all the "reformers" from the 90s to the present so consistently destroyed and optimized the Soviet-Russian school.

"You don't need a knife for a fool,
You will lie to him with three boxes -
And do with him what you like! "

After all, we are witnessing a gradual return to the past. Nizam will be enough to be able to use digital devices (to be digital idiots), and classical and high-quality education will remain only for the "elite".

        Paradise is not needed. It is necessary that there be no hell. Not for everyone, but for the majority. Being an illiterate and wordless brute is like a waiting room before entering hell, even if the condemned person himself does not realize it. The wisdom of power should be in the exclusion of reasons that allow thinking about the need

          Very true comments. hi
          The introduction of "universal education" instead of "global average" literacy rates is a dubious reason for the revolution. Moreover, the myth-making of the possibility of expelling scoundrels from power and "social justice" is something like "land on three whales." The very nature of man excludes the reality of "socialism".

          What do you mean, I just read during perestroika that the Bolsheviks loved this, though without concrete facts and evidence, but here everything is clear anyway. By the way, it is not strange even in the days of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union about the fact that whites hung on lampposts, too, did not write ... True, during my childhood, which I spent in the Novosibirsk region, it was more terrible to curse a Kolchakite than a fascist with the word. Well, these are legends of deep antiquity, now about Kolchak, the executioner of Siberia, and monuments are being erected, and films about his blinkers are shown. I don’t know how it is now, but in the early 2000s, there was beer in Irkutsk - "Admiral Kolchak". And what did the Bolsheviks do? Well, they did not let the country enslave, they built the Economy, They trained the people, They defended their country, from brown Europe (by the way, the color was correct, but now they are blue), They returned Sakhalin and the Kuriles, then that Kolya No. 2 in 1904 lost, In 1945 they returned everything , even with + all that in 1916 №2 looked through.

          It is surprising that so many years have passed since * the fight against illiteracy * almost universal secondary education, but there are those who cannot read. Those who had * a stigma in the gun * from the spilled blood rushed into emigration, they wrote about their life in the Crimea and how they hung everyone on the streets and along the roads who were suspected of sympathy * SOVDEPIYA *. Emigrants wrote a lot about Kolchak and the Merkulov brothers, whose differences were only in the owners, there, too, about executions and the hanged. About the fact that they flogged everyone in a row, regardless of gender and age, they wrote about the greatest mercy to the cattle. Read it, you can try on the described situations for yourself.

            It is rather unwise to blame Kolchak just for raping the workers and even flogging the teachers for sympathizing with the Bolsheviks. This is a vulgar defense of democracy, these are Kolchak's stupid accusations. Kolchak acts in the ways that he finds. But how does it support itself economically? He holds on to free trade, he goes for it, he is supported for it
            (c) V. I. Lenin. PSS, vol. 38, p. 335
            Lenin condemned the Whites not for the terror, which the Reds practiced not on a smaller scale and terrible degree, but for the fact that Kolchak and the rest of the Whites "went for freedom of trade," and at the first stage also for the Constituent Assembly with general elections. While the Reds - for the broadest nationalization (not only factories, but also bank deposits, urban housing, currency, precious metals, etc.), as well as for the dictatorship of the proletariat, which at that time in Russia was no more than 15% of the rest of the population ... Therefore, in the Constitution of the RSFSR of 1918, the Reds stipulated that one vote of a worker is equal to five votes of peasants. And the former tsarist officials, officers, priests, etc. were generally deprived of the right to vote.

In other words, from 125 thousand peasants 000 representative was sent to the congress, and from the same 125 thousand citizens, i.e. workers - five people. The regional and provincial congresses of Soviets were formed in the same proportion: 1 worker's vote was equal to 125 rural residents' votes.

                    Economic equality between workers and peasants, as small, according to Lenin, owners, cannot exist at any time.
                    And in this work, Lenin teaches that during a civil war there can be no political equality... Hence the equating of five peasant votes with one worker's vote. Hence the discontent of the peasants with the Bolsheviks. Hence the need to suppress this discontent by sending to the villages "a kind of punitive expeditions" (c) Sverdlov. "Tasks of the Soviets in the Village". Hence, it is "rather unwise to criticize Kolchak" only for terror, because the Bolsheviks themselves used it.

        Estates were and will be. As if they were not enough in the Union.

        The presence of estates is a pretext for stagnation and degradation. If a smart person does not have the opportunity to realize himself in society to the detriment of the golden prince from a powerful or wealthy family, then the company will make a decision that is far from optimal and will lose in the competition. Or the state. Or the people. And the loser, by the rule of natural selection, must die out and make way for the more successful ones under the sun. 50 years ago there were 2-3 Chinese for every Russian, today there are more than ten. Normal estate can manifest itself in the genes of smart people and the benefits of children of gifted successful parents who have received talents from their ancestors and can benefit from their experience, culture or advice. Moreover, often successful dynasties of scientists in the USSR and Russia did not get rich thanks to this.

          The ratio of Russians and Han people 50 years ago was about 1 to 7-8, now it is 1 to 10. Due to the very low birth rate among both Russians and Han people, this proportion will continue in the future. You have probably forgotten that since 1979 the PRC has pursued a policy of limiting the birth rate.

        “The powerlessness of the exploited classes in the struggle against the exploiters inevitably gives rise to faith in a better afterlife, just as the powerlessness of the savage in the struggle with nature gives rise to faith in gods, devils, miracles, etc. Religion teaches humility and patience in earthly life, consoling the hope of a heavenly reward. And for those who live by other people's labor, religion teaches charity in earthly life, offering them a very cheap excuse for their entire exploitative existence and selling tickets to heavenly well-being at a reasonable price. Religion is the opium of the people. Religion is a kind of spiritual fuzz, in which the slaves of capital drown their human image, their demands for a life worthy of a human being. "

Look how many churches and churches have been built according to Mother Russia. Almost at every step there are chapels and prayer alleys.

    2) Up to a third of the population in the Republic of Ingushetia is literate (30% + in a huge agrarian country and see point 1, education is developing and the number is growing)
    3) In the Republic of Ingushetia there is a process of industrialization (construction of factories, railways, etc. ... but many will foaming at the mouth to prove that without the Bolsheviks there is neither one nor the other).

The mentioned "in 25 years" you wrote taking the 1905th year as the "starting point" for counting "reformism". The difference is 20 years. And I wrote that "the crowned mediocrity was not a strategist." A "20-year" term, and there is quite a LONG-TERM STRATEGIC PLANNING. Alas, Russian society in all its guises did not have any high expectations in relation to the crowned mediocrity. Well, perhaps, with the exception of Baron Fredericks and "Father Gregory" ...

            BelAZ and Caterpillar and Japanese Kamacheototam? The first one takes only at a price. Well, Soviet workers are paid less than American or Japanese workers.

            I suggest not discussing medicine. The difference is orders of magnitude.
            Diplomas were not recognized because of the poor quality of them. To continue my studies with the bourgeois, I myself had to "confirm" my diploma with honors. I will also keep silent about the difference in the level of knowledge. There every day was like a scoop before the session.

                      The stump is so clear that Korolev built his developments on some basis, who can argue with that? But you're not saying Boeing stole the Wright brothers' idea. For some reason.

Even if you are the very first economy, but when the people do not have GREAT, all that remains is to channel the process of popular discontent in the right direction. So do not talk about "it does not happen." Moreover, we are all witnesses here that it was.
                        What does the separate product TU-4 have to do with it? It was about the fact that all the leading enterprises for the USSR were built by the bourgeois ("It was like that under Dzhugashvili and under Brezhnev" - your words. Do you remember?). You are being carried somewhere to the wrong steppe at all.
                        Yes, all the best to you too.

                    And in the 70s, the bourgeoisie were looking for something cheaper.

                    It happened in different ways. In Armenia there was a plant for stones of cutting machines STROMMASH. Almost everything is exported. Now closed. The earthquake destroyed it, otherwise it could have worked. The niche is specific.
                    On the other hand, there was a DorMashin plant in Nikolaev. It closed as soon as the bourgeoisie began to supply their road equipment to the FSU. The Chinese have occupied a cheap niche.

          And read the biography of the vice-admiral of the Russian fleet Stepan Osipovich Makarov. An all-round talented man. His father began his service as an ordinary sailor. For 25 years of service he rose to the rank of sergeant major and the position of boatswain, the highest non-commissioned officer rank in the Russian Empire, and later and the rank of ensign. For this he was promoted to the honorable nobility. Stepan was the fourth child, but already born by the nobleman Osip Fedorovich Makarov and therefore, unlike his older brothers, had the right to enter the Naval Cadet Corps.

We can say that it is a single example, but there is no one to compare with in terms of the success of interplanetary flights. In the USSR, technicians subordinate to a real engineer and designer were not trained. Those to whom you would not give diplomas in reality worked as a technician and received less worker and engineer. In Russia, over the past 30 years, it has changed a little in this regard. For example, my relative sends his daughter with below average abilities to a technical school, but hopes to train her additionally in evening courses and thinks that in 18 months in Russia her salary will be about $ 1000-1500.

        As Fyodor Fyodor said from Operation Y: “You need to be softer with people, but look better at questions!”. Our Soviet leadership could only look one-sided at “Shirshe”. When UNESCO offered to favorably resolve the issue of international recognition of diplomas of Soviet universities (domestic education was recognized as quite decent and of high quality), our authorities refused to fulfill the main condition: to remove social disciplines from the register of compulsory ones, making them optional. Diamat, history and mathematics, scientific committee, the history of the CPSU could not be (in the opinion of the governing bodies) subjected to any infringement. Therefore, our diplomas were infringed on in terms of foreign recognition, i.e. not recognized.

          This is what it is. Confirmation of education is based on formal criteria, regardless of the rating of the university. The US Department of Education does not do this, it does assessment bodies such as WES. The certificate will indicate the degree and area of ​​expertise.

          For the MIT master's program, it makes absolutely no difference what university diploma I have in my hands. There are formal criteria.

          https://gradadmissions.mit.edu/applications/procedures
          Requirements

          To be admitted as a regular graduate student, an applicant must have earned a bachelor's degree or its equivalent from a college, university, or technical school of acceptable standing. Students in their final year of undergraduate study may be admitted on the condition that their bachelor's degree is awarded before they enroll at MIT.

          Submission of the online application. Qualified applicants interested in more than one department must submit separate applications to each department of interest.
          A $ 75 application fee. Applications to the MIT Sloan School of Management may have application fees between $ 75 and $ 250.
          For more details regarding application fee waivers and eligibility, please see our Application Fee Waiver page.
          Letters of recommendation.
          A statement of objectives.
          Official GRE test scores.
          Official TOEFL or IELTS English proficiency exam test scores.
          transcripts.
          CV or resume.

The main thing is to get for an interview, and there is already a question of technique how to show off your knowledge. The problem is that in HR there are almost always stupid girls who make the initial selection. And by virtue of their intelligence, first of all, they select candidates for keywords familiar to girls. Local candidates always have an advantage. There are firms where formal education is required. This is the case in almost all American corporations.

      Yeah ... But an amazing thing. This means that the world's first satellite and the world's first cosmonaut were sent into space by an "undeveloped" country with an uneducated population. She, thanks to her education system, has managed to do not just "cars" or "airplanes". But also to create a developed automobile and aviation industry. And, at the end of the 50s, to lay a solid foundation for the development of OWN and quite competitive and dynamic electronics industry. Moreover, in a situation of tough competition with the "developed" countries ... And she also built the world's first nuclear icebreaker ... At the expense of the "recognition" of a "developed" world of Soviet diplomas, they frankly laughed. The sovereign people's Soviet state prepared, with its system of free and high-quality education of ALL LEVELS and FORMS of training, specialists for its development, and not at all potential vagrants, for some "free" market. Systematically flown in and out and still, from one SYSTEM crisis to another. The inability of the "developed" ones to effectively withstand SYSTEM crises and to predict them IN TIME is a sign of "development" right? ..

    Relying on the will of patrons and philanthropists means marking time. Now capitalism in our country is in the making. And this means that there are not so many people willing to share with those in need. Moreover, many nouveau riches created their wealth by not entirely legal methods. in a country where capitalism was established long ago, they make gatherings in between gatherings for needs, in our country it will be difficult for a long time.

    however, it should be noted that higher education received mostly representatives of the highest social strata - children of noblemen, military men, officials, bourgeoisie, intelligentsia.

    it is worth noting that this is a gross lie: representatives of the upper classes were minority from students of universities of Russia, and in technical universities - generally a quarter, RAS:

    And in Russia there was the MOST accessible university education for the lower strata: in England and France the percentage of those was one third less.
    Thus, the Bolsheviks got a heavy legacy.
    Thus, they themselves made this legacy by their GV, throwing away and slowing down public education for many years: only ten years after the VOR was it possible to at least restore the number of pre-revolutionary schools.
    and by the beginning of the 40s, literacy among the population under the age of 50 was over 90%.
    yeah, only those who barely managed to sign were considered "literate", and the real level of literacy was shown by the Resolution already 1957 d of the Central Committee of the CPSU, where it fiercely ... continued to fight against illiteracy.

    The Bolsheviks were able to do what the tsars had not done before them: they made a qualitative leap, not only caught up with, but also overtook all the advanced countries of the West.

    WHAT is it "overtaken"? In the consumption of food (with their unprecedented hunger strikes in the world)? In clothes? In the amount of housing per person? In freedoms (with their complete lack of freedom of elections, speech, parties, meetings, conscience? In life expectancy? In salary? belay lol
    They are also silent about the fact that the Bolsheviks rescued historical Russia from complete destruction and seizing her lands other powers.

    The author looks out the window and finally see the boundaries 17th century Russia created by these "spasunami" and a bunch of sovereign states that never existed before the VOR, they were stuck together on the body of Russia. The wolf took pity on the mare: he left his tail and mane.
    it was a stage in the qualitative historical ascent of Russia, and not a dead-end path of development.

                In accordance with the Instruction on Elections, citizens of various classes were referred to as "disenfranchised", in particular:

                - persons resorting to hired labor for the purpose of making a profit;

                The "liberties" became social outcasts. The deprivation of voting rights entailed a significant deterioration in the material situation of this category of citizens.

                A person who found himself on the lists of "disenfranchised" was fired from his job, expelled from the trade union, evicted and his family, raised taxes, deprived of the food "food book", condemning him to death by starvation (in the 1930s).

                Members of his family automatically became "deprived" of children, expelled children from schools and universities. At village gatherings, "disenfranchised" were forbidden to attend (c)

And there is no way to solve this problem, except for increasing the productivity of agriculture at times, which cannot be done without mechanization, which was done by the Bolsheviks. Although you, after all, that on the forehead, that on the forehead. Even on the Internet, it is difficult to find statistics. It was people like you who fled with the leaflet "Political instructor is lying" into captivity, and then they were very surprised.

      I explain the PRINCIPAL differences, literally "on the fingers" ...

      The People's Soviet Power, created and DYNAMICALLY DEVELOPED FOR ALL THE WORKING PEOPLE, not "universities", but the PUBLIC EDUCATION SYSTEM, ALL levels and ALL forms of education. Including the mentioned universities, by the way. This time ... In the cited by you and, in fact, ONCE AGAIN, NOT EXPLAINING ANYTHING "picture", according to the tsarist universities, in particular - "Bourgeois and workers + peasants", constitute a screaming minority. That is, only 38% of the TOTAL number of students. We also add that among the bourgeoisie "added" here were the children of merchants and traders, as well as the "rural bourgeoisie" - in the world - "kulaks" ...

      So the thesis of your "counterpart" about the original imprisonment of the tsarist university education for the ruling and economic "elites", and not for the PEOPLE'S EDUCATION, is quite correct ...

      By the way, I note that there are EIGHT HIGH SCHOOLS, as opposed to HIGH SCHOOLS, of which there are only FOUR. But in VTUZA, which trained not "managerial cadres" for the ruling system, there are already over 50% of "low-breed" ones ...

          Alas, with this case, so far, - FULL "unsatisfactory" ...

          According to Stat. document. to the reference book Russia, 1913, the percentage of the PEASANT population in "European Russia" (50 gubernias) is 84.4%. Those. peasants are the TOTAL MOST OF THE POPULATION of the Russian Empire.

          And in the tablet, cited by you, "dear teacher", the percentage of peasants who studied in 8 universities under the "king - father" is ONLY 14.4%.

          So, it is CORRECT to talk about the "accessibility" or "inaccessibility" of education to the PEOPLE, you can ONLY COMPOSE these TWO INDICATORS, i.e. their TOTAL percentage in the population with the PERCENTAGE of their "representation" in universities ...

          And not to engage in cheating speculation "comparing" the percentages of peasants and other "estates" enrolled in tsarist universities.

              I don’t understand how 26 thousand lawyers are needed in the industrialization process (and this is a third of all graduates).
              If there is a need for industrialization, then engineers (of various specialties) are needed, and not lawyers.
              For comparison, during the period of industrialization in the USSR, the number of graduates grew in hundreds of percent, and lawyers and economists in dozens.
              So the number of students in 1927 in legal and economic sciences increased by 40-50%, but only in engineering by 208 (compared with 1913).

                  Yes, lawyers are needed. And economists are needed, but the question is the quantity - or rather the proportion. Well, you don't need two lawyers for one engineer. Both a lawyer and an economist are auxiliary personnel. Yes, important, but auxiliary. There should be no more of those who are directly involved in production.

                  So I didn't get an answer to the question of how twice as many lawyers-economists (as compared to engineers) are connected with industrialization.

                  PS By the way, I want to remind you that in fact, in the first half of the 20th century, an engineer is not only and not so much a technical worker, but also a leader and at least a little designer. It was a fairly piecemeal product. And even a bad engineer was cool in those days.

                  Again, recall one of the films where the director of the mine, upon learning that the GM is an engineer, admires: "Engineer !!! Miner !!! Come to us !!!" and immediately gives out good lifting ones and promises to resolve the issue with housing in the near future. At the same time, I did not even ask for qualifications.

                  It was already in the 70s (maybe a little earlier) that a sea of ​​engineers was divorced and they began to be sent for potatoes. And before that, the engineer will not be sent for potatoes - let him work in his specialty - there are not enough competent people.

    Since the Church has appropriated to herself that she is the mediator between God in heaven and man on Earth, it was unprofitable for the Church that man would be educated. Because then a person can begin to doubt not so much the existence of God in heaven, but rather whether an intermediary is needed between God in heaven and man on Earth in the form of the Church. Simply put, but in the words of Emile Zola: "Civilization will not reach its perfection until the last stone of the last church falls on the head of the last priest." As you can see, the great Frenchman did not say a word about God, but he very much doubted the need for the Church. So this is Zola who believed in God! And even more the Church was shocked by the atheist called Voltaire, when the dying philosopher-enlightener was nevertheless brought in a priest. To the priest's question - where after death the writer would still like to go - to hell or to Paradise, Voltaire replied, - that, of course, there are very good conditions in Paradise, but what kind of company will gather in hell! The priest, after such words, was speechless and, waking up, burst into curses at Voltaire, although Voltaire told only the real truth, not denying the existence of either God, or Heaven, or Hell. And even the Church did not like this truth ... So what kind of mediator is there between God in heaven and man on Earth. if the truth is unacceptable to this mediator ...

      Likewise, those who praise "The Russia We Lost" do not need smart, talented, well-educated, good professionals in their work.

        The President periodically focuses our attention on a particular person, including so that we would have a reason to discuss it. The circular "about the cook's children" was the beginning of the degradation of that "elite" and the collapse of tsarist Russia.

        ps
        Circular "On the reduction of gymnasium education", nicknamed "the circular on cook's children," - a normative act of the period of counterreforms, подписанный 18 (30) June 1887 Russian Minister of Education I.D.Delyanov.

          Ha, and Alexander III "has nothing to do with it", as did the enemies of the communists, both Nicholas II and Putin had nothing to do with everything bad that was and is during their rule?
          "On June 30, 1887, a decree was passed in Russia prohibiting the admission of commoners' children to the gymnasium (" the decree on the cook's children "). With regard to the children of commoners, Alexander III left a clear and vivid resolution, personally tracing a peasant woman on the testimony in court, saying that her the son wants to study: “This is awful - a man, but he also climbs into the gymnasium!”,.

          Alexander III did not talk much about the role of the state in higher education, professing a much simpler approach to the state of the country, almost 90 percent of whose population did not even know how to read and write. "And thank God!" - he imposed a resolution on a report from the Tobolsk province, reporting on the low literacy in it. "

      I suppose that by breaking down, quality education for the elite will also disappear. If most of the education is of poor quality, then the bar will not be kept high. If the population of the Russian Federation is 146 by 171, and the number of millionaires is about 015, then degradation will come there too. Despite the fact that many of those children are not interested in learning.

          About the kids --- yes! There is HSE, there is management, there is lending (paid, where neither accounting nor taxation is studied)
          As for medicine, I will try to repeat the observations of my mother. She often goes to the clinic and with doctors - a lot.
          Yes, there are doctors who, working in clinics for the poor (this is the name for district polyclinics), behave dismissively, and some scold at the workplace of the USSR, where they received their education and the Russian Federation.
          Most doctors, according to my mother, behave with dignity, sincerely want to help the people who have come, but how to help? A doctor should be not just a doctor, but some kind of visionary. Neurologist - 10 minutes per patient, surgeon - 15 minutes, therapist - 10, and so on, no more. And there are also 2-3 numbers at one time, they are registered in different places. And other doctors, seriously ill patients can add
          About Asians and young doctors. All the young doctors with whom she talked --- my mother very much praised and this winter and the ambulance repeatedly to her. And she called there with thanks later.
          Doctors from the former republics of the USSR are probably their best representatives, (according to their words) the profession of a doctor is highly respected with them. I myself was in the ambulance at the Military Medical Academy (surgery) there are many from the former republics --- the reviews are good.
          Now there are websites about doctors. All you need to go to the search engine is your full name, specialization, city, and everything will be - a diploma, advanced training, reviews.

    Let's return to the known data on the level of education in the Red Army.
    ...But according to the Great Soviet Encyclopedia, from 1918 to 1941, 3 people received secondary education in the USSR. If we discard women, dead and unfit for military service, then among the military by June 829, 000 there were no more than 22 million people with a secondary education. It cannot be denied that the Soviet government has done a great deal. For comparison: in 1941, among the rank and file of the Russian army, there were only 1,5 people with secondary education. And in total there were 1913 thousand literate people in the army, 1480 thousand illiterate, and 604 thousand illiterate people. Note that it was about a cadre and ethnically homogeneous army. Foreigners who were illiterate and poorly familiar with the Russian language were not taken into the tsarist army at all. So there is a qualitative leap in literacy in the first twenty years of Soviet power, but, alas, we were still lagging behind Germany in this regard....
    A. Shirokorad. "Tank War on the Eastern Front" .

    The most objective information is information from witnesses of that time. I will cite a small excerpt from the book "Sentimental Journey", written in 1923 by Viktor Borisovich Shklovsky in Berlin. Shklovsky was the commissar of the Provisional Government and took part in the 1917 summer offensive. He is also the prototype of Shpolyansky from Bulgakov's White Guard.

    "The fate of our officers is deeply tragic. They were not children of the bourgeoisie and landowners, at least in their main mass ..."

    And then everywhere there are only Golitsyn and Dolgoruky. Continue

    ".... The officers were almost equal in their qualitative and quantitative composition to the whole number of at least a few literate people that was in Russia. Everyone who could be promoted to officers was promoted. Good or bad were these people - there were no others, and it was necessary to take care of them. A literate person not in an officer's suit was a rarity, a clerk was a jewel. SOMETIMES HUGE ECHELON WAS COME, AND IN HIM WAS NOT A SINGLE LITERATE PERSON, SO SOMEONE WAS READING THE LIST.
    The only exceptions were Jews. Jews were not made (approx. In officers). At one time, they did not produce me, as a son of a Jew and a half-Jew by blood. Therefore, in the army, a very large part of the literate and more or less developed soldiers turned out to be precisely Jews. They went to the committees ... "

By the Highest order of 11.05.1910, Jews - lower ranks, "no matter what religion they were", were no longer allowed to take the officer's exam. On September 10.09.1910, 12.05.1912, the Minister of War banned the admission of Jewish volunteers to serve in the garrisons of fortresses, and on XNUMX/XNUMX/XNUMX, the General Staff ordered to extend all the restrictions imposed on "Talmudic Jews" by the "Schedule of the Permissible Number of Gentiles in the Officers' Corps" to all Jews regardless from their creed

M. b. even this confidence was not false - it was too painful for the elite to get drunk at the national expense.

    In one of the editions of TSB there is an article on literacy, which contains a table of illiteracy among conscripts before the revolution. By 1913, as far as I remember, 25% of them were illiterate. So over 80% of literate children and adolescents by 1920, in the light of this, is a very likely indicator of the work of the tsarist primary schools.
    Some critics argue that before the revolution, anyone who could sign was considered literate. I have a collection of pre-war household photographs, many of which, as was customary at the time, have inscriptions. Judging by them, even in the 1930s, many Red Army soldiers were far from shining with literacy. Despite the fact that they were already graduating from Soviet schools.

They take a calculator in their hands and manipulate the keys, completely without giving any account of the essence of the content! ". And he drove everyone to retake the test.

    One thing that touches me and surprises me in such passages. Who will feed these very illiterate lower classes if they are so stupid that they can only poke at smartphones? A commoner should not consume goods, but produce them, and the growth in the level of education is solely due to the fact that technology became more and more complicated, which means that the mass worker had to master an ever higher level of qualifications, at the same time, financial and social relations became more complicated, and people simply inevitably became must be literate, the modern level of office work at the beginning of the 20th century, even in more developed countries, simply would not work.

    Why the author is dragging a stupid picture "Oral Account" I do not know, but one in LJ, somehow, using this letter as an example, rubbed it with paints that it was like in the Empire, it was great, what a difficult matan the peasant children solve. Although the story there is just very sad for the fanatics of Nicolas II the Bloody and his august ancestors, it is already clear from the picture that there are no girls there, that is, education is not provided for women. Well, and the most important point, this whole Rachinsky school existed solely thanks to the "kindness" of this same Rachinsky, who, having a huge estate and consuming for a whole village (compare corny his clothes and the clothes of the children in the picture, the other in the same LJ somehow rubbed using the example of the photo of the 60s, where in a peasant family only the head has boots, and the rest of the bast shoes, how bad it was under the Bolsheviks, although the difference in the quality of clothes in general between this photo and the end of the 19th century, and the fact that picture, colossal, well, and in general it is clear that the collective farmers are already accustomed to take care of themselves, in contrast to the unwashed tsarist pisants in mat) deigned to allocate crumbs and teach a little peasant children. The Russian state did not put a finger on a finger for this. The fact that the graduates of this school massively achieved success also suggests that at least some literate people were in short supply, it is now 10 classes and knowledge of derivatives with integrals does not give much anything, since millions have a similar level of education, in fact it even exceeds the objective ability of the population to learn.

German rocket specialists in the USSR were beaten only by two minor ones (one for oxygen and the second for control systems), all the rest were tertiary and below. All first-class and second-class + all finished products and drawings went to the Americans.
    The difference between the V-2 and the royal seven is roughly how the Wright brothers' plane relates to the B-29.
    And by the way, the Americans lagged behind the Gagarin launch by only a few weeks.

    The Americans have lagged behind the seven for a long time.
    And they really stole everything.

    Both the Americans and the Soviets got quite legitimate trophies of war for which they paid in blood.

    Fuck knows how. But my father was born in 1917. I graduated from 3 classes of TsPSh, then 4 more classes of secondary schools in a neighboring village, then, after the 7th grade of FZU. It is enough that engineers come to him to consult with their developments and patents.

              It seems not just for me. I have a relative, a Permian, also born in 1917, he said that until 1930, in which the church was closed, they did not issue a birth certificate in the registry office without a baptismal certificate. But he studied at the ShKM, not the TsPSh.

    At first, the article seemed adequate. But no, they have again slipped into "digital idiots". How these "" will earn their bread, the author will not answer. Probably in the future competition will disappear, the need for technical and humanitarian specialists, skilled workers will disappear. I'm afraid the author does not even know that an IT specialist sometimes knows physics, mathematics, biology as well as his computer, does not imagine an ordinary employee of an enterprise producing the same smartphone. The author apparently thinks that in the IT industry, incomprehensible people are only engaged in "poking at buttons and screens". Digital, yeah ...

    The general ability to write one's own surname in the election billboard is a very dubious achievement. So what if my grandmother learned to print her name? What, from this, the person became different? Could, there, read the document, understand the instruction or the charter? A purely propagandistic achievement, like many other Bolsheviks. Maximum, it made it possible to read the inscription on the poster. I think this was the only thing the Bolsheviks needed. All posters were only from them and about them. And before television with the Solovyovs, there were no other visual ways to "reach the masses". Without education, reading is not worth much. This is probably why it is called a succinct word - education. And with this we are still bad.

    Pure observation. Our people began to have problems with the advancement of science, when this activity became allowed to the privileged class only. There were those who were against, there were. Especially troubles began with the arrival of foreign specialists, all this nonsense: the Dutch, the Germans and others who made up our history.
    Tatishchev, Lomonosov, Lodygin and others. It was these people who saved our education. And some had such plans that the agents became scared! It is necessary, to take and wish the Lapotnik-Pomor to build his own School, this is the unacceptable arrogance of the Slavs! And now what?!?

    In 1736, the official documents of government agencies for the first time mentioned Leonty Shamshurenkov, the inventor of unique lifting machines and a "self-running wheelchair", the first mechanical carriage in Russia. Shamshurenko from serfs. M.V. Lomonosov was born in the village of Mishaninskaya Kurostrovskaya volost, Dvinsky district, Arkhangelsk province, in a family of peasants. Andrey Konstantinovich Nartov (1693-1756) - Russian scientist, mechanic and sculptor, inventor of the world's first screw-cutting lathe with a mechanized support and a set of interchangeable gear wheels. Ivan Polzunov was born on March 14, 1728 in Yekaterinburg in the family of a soldier of state construction works, a native of the peasants of the Turin district of the Tobolsk province. The main contribution to the creation of the light bulb was made by Russian engineers Pavel Nikolaevich Yablochkov and Alexander Nikolaevich Lodygin.
    In 1875, the talented inventor Pavel Nikolayevich Yablochkov (1847-1894), placing coals in parallel and dividing the gap between them with an insulating substance that can evaporate as they burn, created an "electric candle. The list of talented inventors from the common people can be continued for a long time. Author. You oh What are you broadcasting now? After all, the revolution in Russia was carried out by half-educated people from the middle class and the nobility. So there is no need to distort the historical facts. And most importantly, what were the names of the revolutionaries? After all, they remained in the history of Russia under pseudonyms. That's how it is.

    In tsarist Russia, almost every family had a Bible in their home, which they read and studied by heart! My grandmother read it to me, she was born in 1900. and I believe her, and the mess began when they began to fight against clergy and began to take away church books, and then they changed the spelling and spelling, removed three letters, and made the fourth rarely used.

    If you take a closer look at the 1897 census, you can find out that a citizen who could read three words indicated in the explanations to the census was indicated as literate in it. Those. did not graduate from elementary school, but somewhere learned to disassemble the signs on the shops, which means not quite in the sense of the word "literate" that we now understand. This is what lovers of French bread crunch use.

    One should not rush from one extreme to the other, especially since the results of the 1920 census in the context of the Civil War and foreign intervention cannot be considered representative at all, since then the census would only be conducted in a limited part of the country under the rule of the Bolsheviks, and among certain social circles. , on which the Bolsheviks relied, and these are precisely the most poorly educated strata of the population, which is why the level of illiterates is so high.
    Still, most of the literate and educated part of the population of Russia at that time opposed the Bolsheviks and did not take part in such censuses. This amendment must be taken into account.
    If we talk about literacy in pre-revolutionary Russia, then since the time of Prince Vladimir, as the birch bark letters prove, it has always been distinguished by a higher prevalence of literacy among the population than the same Europe, where literacy has always been the lot of the privileged strata.
    During the Baptism of Rus, Prince Vladimir first of all began to build schools for teaching Church Slavonic Slavic children, so that they could read the Word of God. And this tradition has been preserved in Russia for centuries. This tradition was preserved by the Old Believers, who, during the Nikon reform in the 17th century, retired and continued, and still continue to teach their children to read and write in their families.
    But the bulk of the Russian peasantry fell under the pro-European reforms, first under Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich, and then his son Peter, which led to an increase in serfdom and the actual enslavement of the peasants. Maximum serfs were enslaved under Catherine. At the same time, age-old traditions were completely destroyed, incl. literacy training in peasant families (which the Old Believers preserved), the serf turned into a powerless commodity, families were destroyed at the will of the landowner. It was the pro-European serfdom, intensified under Peter and Catherine, that led to the illiteracy of a significant part of the Russian serfs.
    However, serfs have always made up no more than half of the Russian population of Russia. Half of the population of Russia belonged to the free classes: nobles, service people, merchants, artisans, free farmers, Pomors, Cossacks, from the 17th century Old Believers (schismatics) were added to them, and from the 18th century - commoners, and from the second half of the 19th century - the proletariat (hired workers of industrial enterprises). Among the free estates (except for low-skilled workers), literacy has always been very high, up to the general level.
    And this, if we talk about the Russian part of the population of Russia.
    Poles, Balts, Finns were not much different from Russians in terms of literacy, even despite the fact that, by the great will of the Russian Tsar Alexander I, serfdom in these lands was abolished earlier than in the rest of Russia (this was the national policy of the Russian state).
    Jews, who constituted a significant part of the population of the western and southwestern territories of Russia, were also polls of literacy, since they underwent religious training (Judaism), similar to the one that Prince Vladimir introduced for the Christian education of Russians and which the Old Believers, Pomors and Cossacks kept in their families. ...
    A high percentage of literate people were among the Christians of the Caucasus.
    But among the Muslim, Buddhist and pagan (shamanic) peoples of Russia, the percentage of illiterates has traditionally been very high, often exceeding 90 percent, since, unlike Orthodox Christianity and Judaism, these religions lacked a book tradition.
    So the issue of literacy in Russia is not as simple as it might seem at first glance, and therefore one should not go to extremes.
    By the way, the reform of the Russian alphabet, which was carried out by the Bolsheviks in 1918 and left only 33 letters in our alphabet, was by no means prepared by the Bolsheviks. The Bolsheviks just completed it.
    Therefore, it is more correct to say that in Russia the spread of literacy among the population in all centuries was given great importance, starting with Prince Vladimir. A slight drop in the level of literacy of the population was associated precisely with the enthusiasm for Europe in the 17th and 19th centuries, the introduction of the European tradition of dividing culture into elite and common people (which was not the case before Peter) and the strengthening of serfdom, which turned serfs into piece goods. However, this period was quite short in Russian history, and already from the middle of the 19th century, especially after the abolition of serfdom, the wide spread of literacy among the population again became the main idea of ​​Russian society and Russian government.
    The Bolsheviks only continued this tradition with their characteristic sweep and radicalism. The only distinguishing feature of the Bolsheviks is that they extended the campaign to eradicate illiteracy (educational program) not only to Russians, but in general to all the peoples of the Soviet Union. At the same time, national languages ​​and cultures began to develop sharply, up to the forcible indigenousization (nationalization) of the entire population of the territory, which the Bolsheviks designated as national. This, by the way, is the source of the current interethnic tensions, especially between peoples close in language and culture: not only between Ukrainians and Russians in Ukraine, but, for example, between Bashkirs and Tatars in Bashkortostan.
    So it is not worthwhile to consider this problem so primitively, trying to oppose the spread of literacy under the tsar and under the Bolsheviks.
    It would be more correct to pay attention not to the spread of literacy among (here, I repeat, the Bolsheviks only continued the traditions of tsarist Russia), but to the level of literacy.
    Undoubtedly, under the Bolsheviks, an unprecedented level of literacy of the population was achieved, first through compulsory primary education, then through compulsory incomplete secondary, and then through compulsory secondary.

    Later documents of the Central Statistical Office of 1922-1923 indicate the literacy of the population according to the results of the 1920 census - more than 37%. There is a breakdown by age, but not noted by Bishop Tikhon from 12 to 16 years, but from 8 to 15 years. 49% of children aged 8–15 are literate.

    Among these CSO documents there is a book “Literacy in Russia” from 1922, there is a more detailed breakdown by age. For 12 years old, literacy per thousand boys is 695, girls - 554, on average - 624. For 16 years old - 750, 524 and 630, respectively. The highest literacy was among men 20-24 years old - 818 people out of 1000. It is not clear where 86% came from.

    It is worth remembering that during the 1920 census, the criteria for assessing literacy were expanded as much as possible - those who could read syllables and write their last name in their native or Russian language were considered literate.

    We should also not forget that the criteria for literacy were exactly the same in the following censuses - 1926, 1937, 1939 and even 1959. Of course, the quality of education generally improved during this time, but the literacy rate remained the same. Actually, it was not even necessary to write the last name; the ability to read is already a sufficient criterion for summary statistics.
