Part of the respected World Education Series, The Soviet Union by J. J. Tomiak presents a thorough and authoritative examination of the educational system of the USSR. Tomiak, a Senior Lecturer in Russian and Soviet Education at the Institute of Education and School of Slavonic and East European Studies at the University of London, brings rigorous academic expertise to this comparative study. The work details the structure, ideology, and administration of Soviet schooling, situating it within the broader political and social framework of the communist state. Written for educators, scholars, and policy analysts, it remains an invaluable historical record of how education was organised and wielded as an instrument of state power in the Soviet era.
