THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PLEKHANOV RUSSIAN ACADEMY OF ECONOMICS IN THE LATE 1980s – EARLY 2000s

Abstract

The article describes key problems, which the Russian Plekhanov Academy of Economics faced during the years of reforms and steps taken by the Academy administration in the late 1980s – early 2000s in order to overcome them and reorganize the Academy structure. The qualitative and quantitative growth of the Academy, its social sphere, academic and scientific work, material and technical base and its development were considered. The authors demonstrated a layer of sources, which had never been used in research. For the first time the process of democratization of the Academy administration was investigated, such as extending rights of education institution students and structural changes that took place in the Academy during the period were analyzed. Findings of the research create the foundation for further investigations in this direction and can be use for further reforms in education institutions.
