© 2018. The historiography of recent decades, traditionally refers to the collapse of the Soviet Union to the sluggishness of the state system to the economic and technological challenges of the second half of the twentieth century, its inability to adapt to the rapidly changing processes that took place in the world space, etc. In our study, we abstract from global processes and reflect on the level of the republic, why the growth indicators of the republican industry of the midtwentieth century were replaced by stagnation and decline of the second half of the century. The aim of our research is to study the causes and factors of the industrial decline in The Tatar Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic (nowadays, Tatarstan, Russia) in the end of 1960-1970 years. The research methodology is based on the principles, approaches and methods of scientific knowledge. The authors relied on the idea of dialectical development, which is the basis for such principles of historical research as historicism, objectivity and systemic character.The study showed that the Soviet industry of the second half of the 1960s- 1970s was in a very difficult situation. State problems in the field of industrial construction were supplemented by internal problems, which over time turned into an avalanche (conglomeration) of problems. Errors of an organizational and economic nature, accompanied by problems of a political, nationalistic nature, led to the rapid collapse of the Soviet Union.
