ABSTRACT
Introduction: the publication, based on memories, considers information about young people receiving professional education in Khanty-Mansiysk in the 40s – 50s of the XX century. The relevance of the study is connected both with the academic problems of study of peripheral lands and with pragmatic issues of training domestic specialists.
Objective: to represent the surrounding everyday life as an active principle that influences the younger generation in war and post-war times.
Research materials: published memoirs, as well as local lore research captured the realities of Khanty-Mansiysk town.
Results and novelty of the research: the author reveals the multifaceted influence on students by everyday life and official practices. This contradictory symbiosis of archaic and modern influenced their actions. Latent fears displaced possible doubts and then replaced them with official mythologems and real evidence of what had happened. The scientific novelty of the study consists in focusing on the active role of everyday life, which complemented the efforts of the state. In these manifestations everyday life, the surrounding space and the material world turned out to be important components in the reproduction of a “Soviet man” in peripheral territories, including in the field of education in the Tyumen North. They also played the role of damping mechanisms to weaken the factors of violence. Studies of this problem can bring new adjustments to the awareness of the regional past of Yugra.
Key words: native peoples, adaptation, acculturation, leisure, contacts, memoirs, everyday life, socio-psychological climate, special settlers, young students, Khanty-Mansiysk
