THE SCHOOL-BUILDING FUND NAMED AFTER PETER THE GREAT AND ITS ACTIVITY IN PERM PROVINCE
Abstract
The school-building fund named after Peter the Great was established under the Ministry of Education to subsidize construction of primary schools in the years of “preparatory work for the introduction of compulsory education”. The paper highlights twists and turns of its creation: initiatives of zemstvos (local administrations), consultations of the Ministry of Education with the trustees of school districts and the Ministry of Finance about the project on establishment of this fund, reaction of deputies of the State Duma and the press on signing this draft into law. The paper provides an analytical overview of the laws of 1909 (Charter of the fund, Rules on distribution of benefits) and 1912 as well as documentation of the Ministry of Education (circulars, regulations, Sanitation Guidelines for projects of buildings, act on acceptance of finished school buildings). The paper shows that activity of the fund was based on the principle of co-financing of building work with the local self-government institutions. The paper also analyzes how successfully this fund acted in relation to zemstvos of Perm province.
