Archival University. Historical and Archival Institute

On June 2, a jubilee meeting dedicated to the 85th anniversary of the Historical and Archival Institute of the Russian State Humanitarian University was held at Nikolskaya. Teachers, students and staff of the Russian State University for the Humanities met in a solemn atmosphere to say kind words to MGIAI, remember the outstanding scientists with whom they had a chance to work, and wish the Institute further success and well-being.

Since its founding in 1930, MGIAI has been bringing a significant intellectual charge to the humanities. Today, the structure of the institute includes more than 30 departments, a higher school, a laboratory, 2,000 students study there, and more than 300 teachers work. As the director of the Institute of History and Archives noted in his opening speech, the first vice-rector - vice-rector for academic affairs of the Russian State Humanitarian University A.B. Bezborodov, all these are pages of the glorious history of the Historical and Archival Institute. At the same time, Alexander Borisovich drew attention to the latest pages of this history. “In the last year, the University faced many difficulties, but it successfully overcame them,” emphasized the Vice-Rector. - I am happy that I work in a team that made the right choice, which fought for the University to take the right path of its development. Thank you very much!".


Rector of the Russian State Humanitarian University, Dr. Phil. sciences, prof. E.N. Ivakhnenko expressed his deep gratitude to the MGIAI teachers for their joint contribution to the development of the University. “What the Institute of History and Archives does not want will never happen at the Russian State Humanitarian University, and what it wants, it will definitely achieve,” said Evgeny Nikolayevich. – History and archive are inseparable. The archives capture the time of history, the time of life, and it is the archives that record this elusive substance. I believe that everyone present here is the keepers of time. Of course, 85 years is a respectable age, but we believe that someday the IAI will turn 185 years old, and people will also sit within these walls, and they will also keep the history, archives and time of our country.”


President of the Russian State Humanitarian University, Dr. Sciences, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, prof. E.I. The brewer shared his memories of how his work at MGIAI began. “From 1986 to 1990 I was the dean of the Faculty of Archives, until 1993 I was Vice-Rector for Research,” said Yefim Iosifovich. - In total, this is 30 years of life given to MGIAI and RSUH, and I am very happy about this. Over the years, a lot has been decided, both in the field of historical education and in the life of Russia, because specialists in the field of archiving are extremely important for the whole country. I would like to emphasize that this area is closely connected with the archives of Russia. There are no archives where our graduates would not be, since the Institute of History and Archives is the leading university for this industry, a personnel support for all archivists in the country.


The more I live, the more often it seems that the age we celebrate is irrelevant. On the one hand, 85 years is nothing for such a phenomenon as a world-class higher school, on the other hand, it is a lot, because this school was created and is being created by specific people. I can’t help but name a few iconic names of people with whom I had the opportunity to work. Among them is my teacher, Professor V.Z. Drobizhev, Professor N.P. Eroshkin, professors T.P. Korzhikhina, E.V. Starostin, V.A. Muravyov, A.D. Stepansky, T.V. Kuznetsova, O.M. Medushevsky and, of course, Academician of the Russian Academy of Education, Honored Professor of the RSUH S.O. Schmidt.


We are at the beginning of a new era of development for both the IAI and the RSUH as a whole. And I would like to thank the staff of the institute for expressing solidarity in their understanding of the future fate of the University at a difficult moment.”


Deputy Head of the Federal Archival Agency V.P. Tarasov on behalf of the head of the Federal Archives A.N. Artizova also congratulated the teachers, staff and students of MGIAI on a significant date. “The activity of the Institute has always been inextricably linked with the development of the national archival business. Over the past years, the institute has trained several generations of professional Russian historians, archivists and document specialists, which directly contributed to the development of the country's archives, the preservation and replenishment of the documentary heritage of the people of Russia. A significant contribution has been made to the theory and methodology of archiving, document management, and other expert disciplines. A lot has been done to improve the efficiency of the educational process, to attract advanced teaching technologies, and to educate in-demand specialists.


Graduates of the institute successfully work not only in Russia, but also in the countries of near and far abroad. We express our confidence that the creative potential of the Institute's staff will continue to contribute to the development of archiving, enhancing the prestige of the professions of historians, archivists and document specialists. We sincerely wish you, dear colleagues, successful and fruitful work, new creative achievements, good health and well-being!”.


“Let me thank the organizers of this celebration for giving me the opportunity to speak to you in honor of this anniversary,” V.M. Ustinov, broadcast via video recording. - I am proud that at one time I graduated from the Historical and Archival Institute and that I worked in it. I am already many years old, but I still remember the excellent lectures of our professors and teachers, who gave all their knowledge, experience and strength to ensure that we receive an excellent historical education. I recall with love, respect and gratitude the excellent lectures of the source expert Chernomorsky, the magnificent historiographic reviews of Illeritsky. It is impossible not to mention the storehouse of historical knowledge of Eroshkin and the remarkable archivist Vyalikov. They and many other teachers invested in us, graduates of the IAI, all their strength and knowledge, so that we would receive a truly unique education at that time the only institute not only in the USSR, but also in the world. Over many decades of my scientific and research work, I came to the conclusion that one of the best higher education, one of the best educational institutions of a historical profile and the only one in its profile is, of course, the Institute of History and Archives. And in this regard, I would like to wish you all the best and the best not only in your practical work, but also in your personal life!


“I am happy to perform in the hall in which I have spent an extraordinary number of years since 1971,” said N.I. Basovskaya. – Difficult times in which we now live, they are difficult on the whole planet now. It is necessary to arrange holidays, and an anniversary is one of the good reasons. Having taken up the historical biographies of people from various eras and peoples, turning over a lot of materials, over the years I came to the conclusion that Nikolskaya Street is mystical. The Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy, the first printed Russian book, the Synodal Printing House, the work during the Great Patriotic War - it's all absolutely amazing. There are tanks, and I'm lecturing here! Something is always happening in the world, something incredibly responsible always falls on Russia's shoulders, but we are working, we are doing our duty. And I myself became a piece of this story. I wish love to the respected Historical and Archival Institute, prosperity, prosperity to these vaults. We will survive crises, clashes of civilization, and minor difficulties. I wish everyone happiness!".


Speech by the Dean of the Faculty of Management of the IEPM in the 80s of the XX century. N.I. Arkhipova came down to the fact that for most people the abbreviation MGIAI is fate. “We tied our fate with this university and remained patriots of this university until today,” Nadezhda Ivanovna emphasized. - They say that the times do not choose. We do not choose our homeland, and its fate is very difficult. The fate of the Historical and Archival Institute itself and the RSUH itself was also not easy. We went through and are going through all these difficulties together, we remain absolute patriots of this university, we are proud that we graduated and are working at MGIAI RSUH. I am very glad that teachers, staff, and students are present here today - completely different generations. And I would like to sincerely wish that we preserve the wonderful traditions of the Institute of History and Archives. So that we endure all the vicissitudes of fate, so that we survive, so that we always maintain the highest quality of education. And so that, just as 40 years ago, when I entered here, so now, parents know that it is at this institute and at this university that their children will receive wonderful knowledge that will remain with them for life. All health, good luck and good mood!”.


Alumni, friends and partners of the Institute also congratulated MGIAI:

· Deputy Director for Research at the Institute of Russian History of the Russian Academy of Sciences, MGIAI graduate, Doctor of History. Sciences Sergey Vladimirovich Zhuravlev;

· Director of the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art, MGIAI graduate, Doctor of History. Sciences Tatyana Mikhailovna Goryaeva;

HISTORICAL AND ARCHIVAL INSTITUTE OF THE RUSSIAN STATE UNIVERSITY FOR THE HUMANITIES is a department of a higher educational institution where scientific disciplines in history are taught and professional historians are trained.

The Institute of Archival Studies (since 1932 - the Historical and Archival Institute) was established by the Decree of the Central Executive Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR "On the opening of the Institute of Archival Studies under the Central Archival Administration of the USSR and on the transfer of the Cabinet of Archival Studies under the Central Archival Administration of the RSFSR to the jurisdiction of the Archival Administration of the USSR" dated September 30 1930. The decision was adopted on the basis of the petition of the head of the Central Administrative Center of the USSR M.N. Pokrovsky to the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR. Pokrovsky wrote: “The training of new scientific personnel requires the organization of a special higher archival educational institution, which is clearly beyond the power of individual archival departments of the Union republics ... For the training of scientific personnel, it is necessary to organize a special higher educational institution at the CAU - the Institute of Archival Studies - with a two-year course (such as a workers' faculty) and a preparatory one-year course for preliminary training in the institute of workers who do not have a general education qualification.

In a detailed note by the Deputy Head of the Central Aviation Administration of the USSR V.V. Maksakov and senior archivist-consultant M.S. Vishnevsky in the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR, registered on July 10, 1930, was characterized by the unsatisfactory state of training of qualified archival workers, who were trained by the Archival Cycle at the 1st Moscow State University. The note substantiated the need to create a special higher educational institution - the Institute of Archival Studies at the CAU of the USSR. The TsAU asked to close the Archival cycle at the 1st Moscow State University and to transfer the funds released in connection with this to the disposal of the TsAU of the USSR. At the same time, a project was presented for the organization of the Institute of Archival Studies.

The Institute was opened 7 months after the publication of the Decree, when the first intake of students and listeners on April 1, 1931 crossed the threshold of classrooms in the building of the Central Administrative University of the USSR on October 25 Street, 15 (now - Nikolskaya Street, 15).

On January 18, 1931, R.K. Lycite. Even before the start of classes at the Institute, he sent letters throughout the system of archival institutions of the country, where he asked to send two candidates to the new archival institution for each pre-booked student place provided to this institution.

The initial enrollment for the Institute was set at 125 full-time students and 60 in the evening.

At the end of July 1931, Licit delivered a report at a meeting of the heads of the archival departments of the RSFSR, and in early September, omissions were discovered in the preparation of the Institute for the new academic year. The commission appointed by the CAU checked and reported: “The Directorate of the Institute and the CAU staff did not use all the means at their disposal to create normal conditions for the Institute in the new academic year.”

No culprits were found in the CAU apparatus, and a change in the leadership of the Institute was carried out.

In August 1931, the scientific secretary S.M. Abalin.

In the first, 1931/1932 academic year, a two-year term of study was established. Soon, however, it became clear that the two-year period of study was insufficient for the fundamental training of an archivist. Therefore, already in the 1932/1933 academic year, the period of study was increased to 2.5 years, and in the 1933/1934 academic year, to 3 years.

Already in 1933, admission to the IAI was carried out in the following specialties:

“a) the head-organizer of archiving;

b) archivist-methodologist;

c) archivist editor, publisher and archivist for agitation and mass work;

d) teacher of archival and historical disciplines for archival courses and relevant universities;

e) scientists for the Marx-Engels-Lenin Institute (prepared according to special profiles and curricula)." (from the rules for admission to the IAI in 1933).

Entrance examinations were held in the following disciplines: political economy, physics and chemistry, Russian language, mathematics, general acquaintance with archival and historical literature.

CM. Abalin in 1933 asks the research department of the TsAU to help the Institute create in the near future:

Textbook on the methodology and technique of archival work, ed. M.S. Vishnevsky;

Textbook on the course "Archives and Archiving", ed. V.V. Maksakova;

Textbook on source study and methods of publishing documents.

Thus, 1931 - 1941 were a stage in the formation of the IAI.

In the early years, the structure of the Institute was formed: the Council of the Institute was created, three main departments - history and economic disciplines, archival science, foreign languages, as well as postgraduate studies, a laboratory, a scientific and methodological historical and archival study, a library.

The Institute, fulfilling the resolution of the Central Executive Committee of the USSR of September 19, 1932 "On Higher School and Technical Schools", introduced into the educational process the reading of systematic courses of lectures, seminars, tests, exams, the defense of theses (instead of the previously existing brigade-laboratory method of teaching, in which the student group worked on a certain topic, and only one student reported on its development).

However, in 1934, the Council of the Institute was forced to state that "the departments in their work did not ensure the linkage of historical disciplines with the main problems of archiving." With the realization of the importance of this problem, the unique image of the IAI begins to take shape.

The situation begins to slowly improve with the appointment in 1934 to the post of director of the IAI N.I. Sokolov. Under him, the question of who the Institute trains is actively discussed. The new director entered the battle with those who, following M.N. Pokrovsky, believed that it was necessary to train only ideological and politically savvy executives, giving them a maximum of historical disciplines and the necessary minimum of disciplines in their profile. N.I. Sokolov decided to restructure the curriculum. It was at this time that the direction was put forward for the production of not narrow (albeit well-savvy politically) specialists, but historians-archivists. In the 1934/1935 academic year, the term of study is increased to 4 years.

In addition, Sokolov's main task was to invite the best historians-researchers and professional archivists to the Institute. Representatives of a brilliant constellation of historians and archivists rose to the institute departments from the mid-1930s. Behind many of them were years of study and teaching at pre-revolutionary Russian universities, the authority of the scientific school they represented, and, most importantly, a reverent concern that the “candle” of scientific traditions, which for centuries was famous for the system of Russian higher education, did not go out.

During these years, a discussion took place on the issue of the essence of historical and archival education between A.N. Speransky and M.S. Vishnevsky - a methodologist-practitioner of archives, one of the founders of the Institute from 1936 to 1938 M.S. Vishnevsky led the fight against "underestimation and direct disregard for archival disciplines, which is transmitted to students and graduate students." He demanded a reduction in the hours of teaching general education and historical disciplines: "The tasks of our special archival university should not include the training of specialists in the history of the USSR." At the same time, he emphasized: “Historical science cannot develop without the correct organization of archives, without the presence of highly qualified specialists in state archives, without the scientific processing of archival materials, which are the main basis for the development of historical sciences.”

In 1938, the department of archival science was divided into two independent archival departments - the theory and practice of archival work (under the direction of G.D. Kostomarov), the history and organization of archiving (under the direction of V.V. Maksakov).

And in 1939, the Department of Auxiliary Historical Disciplines emerged from the Department of History and Organization of Archiving, headed by A.N. Speransky. The department of VID was also entrusted with teaching the history of state institutions.

However, by this time N.I. Sokolov was dismissed from the post of director of the Institute. The removal of Sokolov in July 1937 was due to the conclusions of the next commission, appointed by a special order for the CAU with the aim of "checking the work of the Historical and Archival Institute in relation to teaching staff and the political and moral state of students." As early as April 8, 1933, the Presidium of the Central Control Commission and the People's Commissariat of the Republic of Kazakhstan adopted a decision on the next purge of the apparatus of the CAU of the USSR and the RSFSR, the archives and the Institute of Archiving. The commission created in connection with this obliged all employees of personnel bodies and the administration to prepare characteristics of the "political person" of each of the scientists and teachers. Almost simultaneously with N.I. Sokolov, at the end of 1937 - beginning of 1938, the deputy. Director for Academic Affairs A.E. Blumfeld, Professor K.A. Popov, M.S. Vishnevsky; a little earlier - A.M. Rakhlin, B.I. Anfilov. In addition, the inspectors, as recorded in the conclusions of the commission, have doubts about the “political face” of IAI graduate students N.V. Brzhostovskaya (who was expelled in 1939), K.G. Mityaeva, M.N. Shobukhov.

On this tragic note, the prehistory or the period of the formation of the IAI ends. And the following year, the IAI entered a new stage of its life - a heroic one, because the teachers of the Institute had to live and work between the "hammer" of power and the "anvil" of the scientist's honor.

Director of the IAI in July 1937 was appointed director of the Archive of the trade union movement K.O. Gulevich. He continued the tradition begun by Sokolov of inviting outstanding scientists and specialists to the Institute. Thus, in the 1930s, major specialists came to the departments of the university - historians and archivists. Archival disciplines were conducted by V.V., Maksakov, M.S. Vishnevsky, S.F. Ainberg-Zagryazskaya, B.I. Anfilov, O.E. Karnoukhova, A.M. Rakhlin, A.A. Sergeev, A.A. Shilov, postgraduate students of the Institute K.G. Mityaev, I.S. Chernov, M.N. Shobukhov. Yu.V. Gauthier, S.B. Veselovsky, V.I. Picheta, S.K. Bogoyavlensky, P.G. Lyubomirov, P.P. Smirnov, M.N. Tikhomirov, L.V. Cherepnin, N.V. Ustyugov, A.N. Speransky.

Thanks to Gulevich, A.A. Shilov, who was not published for several years, "Guidelines for the publication of documents of the XIX and early XX centuries." (M., 1939).

Already in 1939, the “Proceedings of the Historical and Archival Institute” were founded, the first volume of which was “Essays on the History of the Manufacture College” by D.S. Baburina (M., 1939).

Recall that at that time (in 1939) an independent department was created - auxiliary historical disciplines and the formation of the highest scientific prestige of the IAI took place around this department. It was no accident. After the inclusion of the archive system and the Institute under the subordination of the NKVD in 1938, the head of the GAU I.I. Nikitinsky referred the Institute to the "periphery of archives". The Department of Visual Arts successfully used a name that was unattractive to the authorities and formed its own “periphery on the periphery”. The high level of thinking and culture of the teachers of the department introduced students to real science. Thus, a unique research and teaching and educational whole organism was born, which was based on the scientific study of the Text, Document, Source in the broadest sense of the word. From this point of view, the IAI from 1938 to 1949 became a kind of "Freethinking Academy".

True, K.O. Gulevich no longer lived up to this. In 1939 he was arrested and shot. At a meeting with the head of the GAU NKVD of the USSR on November 16, 1939, I.I. Nikitinsky said: “Many oppositionists have been identified in the archival periphery. The Institute of History and Archives had a director, Gulevich, who in the past was the leader of the Shlyapnikov opposition in Poltava.”

The last thing K.O. Gulevich before his arrest, raised the question of introducing a 5-year term of study.

I.I. was appointed the new director of the IAI at the end of 1939. Martynov.

The years of the Great Patriotic War are a special period in the history of the Institute, when the historian P.P. Smirnov, on his own initiative, together with a small group of students and staff, saved the Institute, abandoned by Martynov to the mercy of fate, and brought it back to life. Already in October 1941, a message was heard on the pages of the central press and on the radio that the IAI continued to live and work according to the laws of wartime. In addition to classes in classrooms, teachers and students patrolled the streets of the city, dropping fascist incendiary bombs from the roofs, gave lectures and concerts in sponsored hospitals and schools.

On the call of P.P. Smirnov, A.N. returned to Moscow from Nizhny Novgorod. Speransky and A.V. Chernov. He himself came from Saratov V.V. Maksakov. I.L. Mayakovsky and A.I. Andreev.

Soon, and already under the leadership of the new director P.B. Zhibareva, the Institute almost completely resumed its scientific and educational activities.

In 1946, the contingent of admission to the university was set at 150 people for secondary school and 150 for part-time students.

The director of the IAI from October 1944 to January 1948 was D.S. Baburin.

In 1946-1947 an attempt was made to reorganize the Faculty of History and Archival Studies. It was divided into 2 faculties: historical archives and archives of the October Revolution. However, this reform of the structure of the Institute was unsuccessful, since the chronological gap in the teaching of special disciplines did not contribute to the comprehensive training of a specialist. This was especially true of working conditions in the archives in the most numerous regional link.

In 1947, the Institute was transferred from the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR to the Ministry of Higher Education of the USSR.

In 1948, N.A. was appointed director of MGIAI. Elistratov, who forced A.I. Andreeva and L.V. Tcherepnin, organizing their persecution for "servile worship of the West."

In the second half of the 1940s and 1950s, there was a process of expanding the composition of academic disciplines.

In 1946, the Department of Archival Studies, united during the war years, was restored to the previously existing independent departments - the theory and practice of archival affairs under the leadership of I.L. Mayakovsky and the history and organization of archival affairs under the direction of V.V. Maksakov.

In the 1949/1950 academic year, a 5-year term of study was introduced, the question of which was raised as early as 1939.

In 1950, MGIAI was headed by A.S. Roslov.

In 1952, the Department of the History of State Institutions and Paperwork was formed, headed by A.V. Chernov. The Department of the History of State Institutions and Paperwork was formed from two groups of teachers - specialists in office work - K.G. Mityaev, V.L. Bushueva, L.I. Vartanyan; and specialists in the history of state institutions - A.V. Chernov, N.P. Eroshkin, B.G. Slitsan, Yu.V. Kulikov, A.A. Nelidov, V.A. Tsikulin. In 1957, the Department of Archeography was established under the leadership of M.S. Seleznev. Specializing in the department of TiPAD in archeography, M.S. Seleznev, E.M. Talman, D.M. Einstein, T.V. Ivnitskaya, L.I. Arapov formed the basis of the Department of Archaeography.

During this period, a strong teaching staff was formed at the Department of TiPAD - N.A. Pavlova, M.F. Petrovskaya, M.N. Shobukhov, N.A. Kovalchuk, N.A. Orlova, L.G. Syrchenko, A.A. Kuzin, K.I. Rudelson. A.A. Kuzin initiated the study of technical archives at the department. Later, N.G. Filippov, K.B. Gelman-Vinogradov, P.S. Preobrazhenskaya and L.M. Roshal.

At the Department of History and Organization of Archiving, there was also a backbone of teachers - V.V. Maksakov, A.V. Chernov, N.V. Brzhostovskaya, V.I. Vyalikov, G.A. Dremina, N.A. Ivnitsky, Yu.F. Kononov, I.P. Kozlitin.

Along with the lecture courses that had developed in the previous period, new ones were read in the postwar years: on historical geography, the history of foreign archives, technical and film-photo-phono archives, and microphotocopying.

During this period, the departments of the Institute prepared and published such large textbooks and teaching aids as "Theory and Practice of Archiving in the USSR" (1958), "Methodological Guide for Archeography" (1958), "History and Organization of Paperwork in the USSR" K .G. Mityaeva (1959), "Technical Archives" (1956) and "Cinema Photo and Phono Archives" (1960) by A.A. Kuzina, "Essays on the history of state institutions of pre-revolutionary Russia" (1960), N.P. Eroshkin, “Historiography of the history of the USSR from ancient times to the Great October Socialist Revolution”, edited by V.E. Illeritsky and I.A. Kudryavtseva (1961).

In 1962, L.A. came to the leadership of MGIAI. Nikiforov.

In 1959, the Council of Ministers of the USSR adopted a Resolution on the training at MGIAI of personnel of document specialists, organizers of managerial work and office work in state institutions, and in 1960 the department of Soviet office work was formed under the leadership of K.G. Mityaev. In 1964, the Faculty of Public Records Management was established. Special departments were created at the faculty - document management and organization of state office work, the basics of public administration, mechanization and automation of office work and archives.

In 1969, the Faculty of History and Archival Studies was renamed into the Faculty of Archives.

In 1964, the Department of Scientific and Technical Archives was formed under the leadership of A.A. Cousin. In the same year, the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR "On the training of personnel for scientific and technical archives at the Historical and Archival Institute" was published.

In 1976, the Department of Scientific and Technical Information was created under the leadership of P.I. Nikitin. This direction of the Institute's activity ended with the introduction in 1977 of a new specialty - a document manager-organizer of scientific and technical information.

And in 1982, the Department of Scientific and Technical Information of the Faculty of Archives was transformed into the Faculty of Scientific and Technical Information; scientific and technical archives, standardization and patent science.

In 1975, an independent department of the history of state institutions and public organizations was created (under the leadership of I.P. Eroshkin).

In 1976, as rector of MGIAI S.I. Murashov, who forced 15 leading professors, associate professors and lecturers to leave the Institute, was replaced by N.P. Krasavchenko.

Among the main merits of N.P. Krasavchenko refers to his desire to return to the Institute professors and teachers who left under Murashov. He was the initiator and main organizer of the celebration of the Institute's half-century anniversary in 1981.

In 1978, a preparatory department and evening preparatory courses for young people working in archival bodies were created. In 1978, the faculty for advanced training of employees of archival institutions was opened.

During this period, the textbooks “Theory and Practice of Archiving” (M., 1980) were prepared and published, edited by F.I. Dolgikh, K.I. Rudelson; N.P. Eroshkin "History of state institutions of pre-revolutionary Russia" (M., 1968); M.N. Chernomorsky "Source study of the history of the USSR. Soviet period "(M., 1976), etc.

In the midst of perestroika, the Institute found itself at the epicenter of a struggle between various currents and opinions around the situation in the domestic archival business. Part of the apparatus of the allied Main Archives demanded that the learning process be reduced to a set of technical skills that are sufficient for an archival worker as a performer. At the same time, a group of teachers from MGIAI headed by the new rector Yu.N. Afanasiev, who came to this post in 1986, advocated a radical democratic reform of the entire national archive system. The liberal-minded scientists of MGIAI tried to raise the level of archival practice and archival education in order to include archivism within the framework of a single world cultural and information space.

Having joined the Russian State Humanitarian University in 1991, IAI began to develop on a qualitatively new basis - a synthetic university-type university based on historical, archeographic and archival science disciplines. In 1994, a department was created, which soon became the Faculty of History, Political Science and Law (Dean, Doctor of History, Prof. A.P. Logunov).

In 1994, the Faculty of Technotronic Archives and Documents separated from the Faculty of Archiving (Dean, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor V.M. Magidov).

In 1999, the Faculty of Records Management was established (Dean, Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor T.G. Arkhipova).

The Historical and Archival Institute of the Russian State University for the Humanities intertwined the traditions of Russian liberal arts education and the fundamental training of archivist historians with a broad outlook and the ability to put into practice the skills of identifying, organizing and researching archival sources.
