A period of stagnation or dynamic development: Buryatia and its authorities in the 1970-s

The subject of research is the analysis of the economic and structural changes in the country and the Autonomous Republic in the period under review, using a systematic, comparative approaches, institutional research method. Carrying out economic reforms, public authorities and management of the USSR and the Buryat Autonomous Soviet socialist Republic launched an active and purposeful work on implementing them, conducting effective personnel policy. In the period under review represented a fruitful stage of the Soviet state, filled with meaningful and effective political and economic events and processes. The sequence of transformations of power structures reflect General regularities of development of the state in view of the resurgence of centralized management. Recovery sectoral management approaches significantly adjusted the role of regional authorities in the decision-making system, increased their influence in matters of forecasting and planning economic and social development of territories. With the increase in economic and socio-cultural development has brought increasing demands on the management level. With the adjustment of the tasks and functions of the state in different historical periods on the basis of accepted constitutional rules and changing the content of the activity of state institutions, work style, specify the functions, powers, developed updated approaches of management. Thanks to the creative work of the authorities of the Buryat Autonomous Soviet socialist Republic on improvement of state institutions of the Autonomous Republic, the rapid rise of the productive forces greatly increased the economic potential of the region and the degree of its integration into the economic complex of the country. Accelerated investment growth of UK-repeal material-technical base of the industry contributed to the industrialization and intensification of agriculture, increase of technical equipment of capital construction, to improve the transportation system. However, one of the main reasons for the failure of the economic reforms was that it had been blocked by the forces of bureaucratic conservatism. Positive changes in the country from the authorities was not supported by changes in political, social and cultural spheres. The ongoing process of democratization of society was not completed, did not go deep, and in the 1970s, years actually stopped. The democratic tendency was weakened, and conservatism has been further strengthened. Significantly increased the contradictions in economic and social spheres.
