Early life and education

An ethnic Russian,[1] Kondakov was born into a peasant family on 5 May 1908 in the village of Maidakovo, Vladimir Governorate, Russian Empire.

He graduated from the Higher Party School of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1948.

Political career

Kondakov joined the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1928. He worked in his first major position from October 1937 to 1938, as Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Yaroslavl Regional Council. From 13 August 1944 to 4 December 1946, Kondakov served as the First Secretary of the Kostroma Regional Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. He was relieved from his position by the Politburo due to "the lack of necessary general education and the existing shortcomings in work".[2] After graduating from the Higher Party School in 1948, he served as the Inspector of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union from 1949 to January 1950. Kondakov then served as the First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Karelo-Finnish Soviet Socialist Republic from 25 January 1950 to 27 September 1950. He retired in 1950 due to health reasons.
