The People's Commissariat for Education (or Narkompros; (ロシア語:Народный комиссариат просвещения, Наркомпрос)) was the Soviet agency charged with the administration of public education and most of other issues related to culture. In 1946, it was transformed into the Ministry of Education. Its first head was Anatoly Lunacharsky. However he described Krupskaya as the "soul of Narkompros".〔(The Commissariat of Enlightenment )〕 Mikhail Pokrovsky and Evgraf Litkens also played important roles. Lunacharsky protected most of the avant-garde artists such as Vladimir Mayakovsky, Kazimir Malevich, Vladimir Tatlin and Vsevolod Meyerhold. Despite his efforts, the official policy after Joseph Stalin put him in disgrace. Narkompros had a seventeen sections,〔 〕 in addition to the main ones related to general education, e.g., * Likbez, a section for liquidation of illiteracy, * "Profobr", a section for professional education, * Glavlit a section for literature and publishing (also in charge of censorship in publishing), * "Glavrepertkom" (Главрепертком), a commission for approval of performers' repertoires. * Department of the Mobilisation of Scientific Forces, to which the Russian Academy of Sciences reported to after 1918. * A Theatre Department which published Vestnik Teatra * ''Vneshkol'nyi Otdel'', the adult Education Department run by Krupskaya Some of these evolved into separate entities, others discontinued. == Relationship with Proletkult == Pavel Lebedev-Polianskii, as chair of the organizing bureau for the national Proletkult argued that Narkompros, as a state organ, had responsibilities for the whole of society, whereas Proletkult asserted its autonomy as an organisation set up specifically for workers. However, there was concern with "parallelism" - the situation which arose when similar work was carried out in parallel by different organisations. In early 1918 Narkompros gave Proletkult a budget of over 9,200,000 rubles, whereas the entire Adult Education Division received 32,500,000 rubles.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「People's Commissariat for Education」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
