Summary/Abstract: Interaction between politics and history as science and object of study occurred within the Soviet Union totalitarian communist regime. It affected the education and research systems, which were subordinate to the interests of the Communist Party and those of the Soviet state. History as a process, science and object of study was a continuous subject of the totalitarian state politics, while serving as an instrument of sovietisation policy and establishment of a new man and a new society. The policy of the Soviet state in higher education in the field of history was part of the sovietisation process and implantation of the communist ideology, initiated in Soviet Russia after the coup of 1917 and which continued during the USSR after its creation in 1922, and all territories included afterwards. The policy of the Soviet state in the higher education in the field of history represented the interaction between the political factor (the state with all its central and local institutions, Party organizations and staff at all levels, and state officials) and history (higher education and research institutions in the field of history, the educational, learning and research process, and scientists – historians)
