In the Soviet Union a leading role in the upbringing children was undertaken by the state, the school and the society was given priority over the family, which, however, also played an important role. Already in 1920 the Soviet state carried out a real educational revolution, a symbol of which has become “the system of Makarenko”, recognized by UNESCO as one of four teachers, who determined the method of pedagogical thinking in the twentieth century. The new education system was based on the scientific and humanistic principles, it has been focused on the formation of harmoniously developed personality of the child, his active life position, social responsibility and work habits. One of the main problems of Soviet pedagogy was the eradication of child abuse in the family, the physical impact was recognized absolutely unacceptable. West countries come to this much later.
