Abstract
The Tuvan People's Republic, as a sovereign state with a socialist orientation, did not exist for long: from 1921 to 1944. During the period of 23 years, just over 500 books, brochures, newspapers and magazines in Mongolian, Tuvan and Russian languages came out of print. They were published by various departments, the Press Committee, and the Tuvan United State Publishing House as well. To date over 150 works have survived, most of which – in the only copy. The main owners of these book monuments became the National Library named after A. S. Pushkin, the National Museum named after Aldan-Maadyr, the National Archive and the Tuvan Institute of Humanities, Applied and Socio-Economic Research. For example, in the specialized sector of the National Library there are more than 60 printed works published in the Tuvan People's Republic.
The object of the research is the “Collection of laws and basic regulations of the Government of the Tuvan People's Republic” that is stored in the archive of the Tuvan Institute of Humanities, Applied and Socio-Economic Research. The purpose of the article is to consider the specifics of the period of preparation and release of the collection, its structure and content. The results of the study will expand the understanding of the book culture of the Tuvan People’s Republic and, in general, the cultural heritage of the republic in modern conditions.
