Youth Patriotic Education On The Eve And During The Great Domestic War

Abstract

The topic of patriotic education of young people is of lasting importance, especially in times of change, when there is a need for a unifying idea, accumulating the highest values of the Fatherland, and people capable of fighting for these values. Military-patriotic education of Soviet youth in the pre-war years and during the Great Patriotic War became the main direction of youth policy pursued by the Soviet state at the time in question. The theoretical basis for the military-patriotic education of young people in the USSR were the ideas developed during the civil war and the post-war international situation. The patriotic education of young people was based on the struggle against international imperialism and the military strategy of the state. In the 1930s, in patriotic education, a great role was played by national history as a science, forming citizenship and love for the motherland. Since 1934, history was taught in educational institutions, books on historical topics were published in large print runs, and a pantheon of heroes was created, including military leaders, statesmen, writers, musicians, i.e. those who glorified the Fatherland. On the ground, the patriotic education of young people took into account regional and national peculiarities, family and domestic customs and traditions. In the North Caucasus, elders were actively involved in patriotic education, speaking to young people at rallies and meetings about the need to defend their homeland.
