Abstract:

The article discusses the fate while in exile of the eminent Polish pedagogue Aleksander Lewin, who during the World War II ran a Polish orphanage in the village of Monetna in the Sverdlovsk oblast. Children placed there came from Polish families forcibly deported deep into the USSR territories during the Soviet occupation of the Second Polish Republic in 1939–1941. Lewin was associated with Janusz Korczak while studying new theories of education. In the Soviet Union, he tried to combine Korczak’s ideas with the extremely popular concepts of Anton Makarenko.
