Abstract

In this study, the author analyzes the features of the emergence and development of student brigades (SB) in the southern regions and the RSFSR in comparison with the general trends in the development of the All-Union Student brigades.

In the article, the author shows that, despite the fact that the student brigades of the southern territories and regions of the RSFSR developed in the image and likeness of the All-Union Student brigades, they had a number of their own characteristics.The most important distinguishing feature of the student brigades of the regions under consideration was the predominance of student brigades of the non-construction brigades. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that it is the first attempt to conduct a comparative analysis of the development of student brigades in the southern territories of the RSFSR. The author identifies common features and distinctive features of trends in the development of the student movement of the studied regions in comparison with the general practices of the All-Union Student brigades.

The chronological framework of the study covers the period from 1965 to the end of the 1970s. The upper boundary is due to the formation of the first visiting student brigades on the territory of the regions under consideration.
