  • History with an Attitude: Alaska in Modern Russian Patriotic Rhetoric
    Andrei A. Znamenski, Memphis/USA History with an Attitude: Alaska in Modern Russian Patriotic Rhetoric Guys, stop your speculations and read books. One of my re­ cent discoveries is Kremlev. Here is a real history of Russia. One reads his books and wants to beat a head against a wall from the realization of how much we lost due to corruption, treason and the stupidity of our rulers – tsars, general secret­ aries and presidents. What wonderful opportunities we had in the past and how much we have lost!1 A nationalist blogger about the ultra-patriotic popular his­ tory “Russian America: Discovered and Sold” (2005) by Sergei Kremlev In Russian-American relations, Alaska is doomed to remain a literary-political metaphor – some sort of a stylistic figure of speech whose original meaning faded away being re­ placed with an imagined one.2 Writer Vladimir Rokot (2007) On the afternoon of October 18, 1867, a Siberian Line Battalion and a detachment of the US Ninth Infantry faced each other on a central plaza of New Archangel (Figure 1), the capital of Russian America, prepared for the official ceremony of lowering the Russian flag and of raising the Stars and Stripes. This act was to finalize the transfer of Alaska (Figure 2) from Russia to the United States, which bought the territory for $ 7.2 million. At 4 PM, Captain Aleksei Peshchurov gave orders to lower the Russian flag. After this, Brigadier General Lovell Rousseau, a representative of the US Government, ordered the American flag to be raised. Salutes were fired. This ceremony ended a brief seventy-year presence of the Russian Empire in northwestern North America.3 Driven by short-term strategic goals, Russian emperor Alexander II decided to get rid of his overseas posses­ sion, which represented 6 per cent of the Russian Empire territory.

  • Russia's Imperial Encounter with Armenians, 1801-1894
    CLAIMING THE CAUCASUS: RUSSIA’S IMPERIAL ENCOUNTER WITH ARMENIANS, 1801-1894 Stephen B. Riegg A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Louise McReynolds Donald J. Raleigh Chad Bryant Cemil Aydin Eren Tasar © 2016 Stephen B. Riegg ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Stephen B. Riegg: Claiming the Caucasus: Russia’s Imperial Encounter with Armenians, 1801-1894 (Under the direction of Louise McReynolds) My dissertation questions the relationship between the Russian empire and the Armenian diaspora that populated Russia’s territorial fringes and navigated the tsarist state’s metropolitan centers. I argue that Russia harnessed the stateless and dispersed Armenian diaspora to build its empire in the Caucasus and beyond. Russia relied on the stature of the two most influential institutions of that diaspora, the merchantry and the clergy, to project diplomatic power from Constantinople to Copenhagen; to benefit economically from the transimperial trade networks of Armenian merchants in Russia, Persia, and Turkey; and to draw political advantage from the Armenian Church’s extensive authority within that nation. Moving away from traditional dichotomies of power and resistance, this dissertation examines how Russia relied on foreign-subject Armenian peasants and elites to colonize the South Caucasus, thereby rendering Armenians both agents and recipients of European imperialism. Religion represented a defining link in the Russo-Armenian encounter and therefore shapes the narrative of my project. Driven by a shared ecumenical identity as adherents of Orthodox Christianity, Armenians embraced Russian patronage in the early nineteenth century to escape social and political marginalization in the Persian and Ottoman empires.

  • Rozwój Idei Umów Społecznych W Koloniach Angielskich W Ameryce Północnej W XVII W
    Czasy Nowożytne • Tom XXI • Rok 2008 Katarzyna Maćkowska (Lublin) Rozwój idei umów społecznych w koloniach angielskich w Ameryce Północnej w XVII w. W teoretycznym aspekcie różnorodność poglądów dotyczących celu i zna- czenia umowy społecznej oscyluje – najogólniej rzecz ujmując – wokół dwóch skrajnych koncepcji. Zgodnie z pierwszą okres przed zawarciem ta- kiego układu zaliczyć należy do złotego wieku ludzkości, w którym jednak jednostka nie potrafi ła poradzić sobie z brakiem rygorów narzucanych wol- ności, w rezultacie czego – stanowiąc zagrożenie dla innych – zaczęła tym samym ściągać niebezpieczeństwo na siebie i dopiero dzięki wejściu w spo- łeczne porozumienie była w stanie uchronić się przed upadkiem. Wedle zaś drugiej ekstremalnej wizji, epoka, kiedy człowiek był swoim panem, od po- czątku charakteryzowała się nieustanną wojną wszystkich ze wszystkimi, na co skuteczne i jedyne antidotum stanowiła właśnie umowa społeczna. W literaturze amerykańskiej często akcentuje się, iż w okresie, gdy w Europie popularyzowano ideę umów społecznych, za oceanem rzeczywi- ście funkcjonowały już wspólnoty zorganizowane na jej kanwie. Źródłem tego porządku była niewątpliwie purytańska teologia umów dostosowują- ca biblijną tradycję do „nowych czasów” i w efekcie umożliwiająca prak- tyczne zakorzenienie się zasady suwerenności ludu. Mogło się tak dziać dzięki odpowiednim warunkom przejawiającymi się w znikomej wówczas jeszcze ingerencji ze strony monarchii angielskiej oraz w niewielkiej liczeb- ności grup przybywających na nowy kontynent. Kiedy natomiast u progu niepodległości sięgano do europejskiej myśli kontraktualnej to zasadniczo w poszukiwaniu uzasadnienia dla zlikwidowania więzi z metropolią, a za- tem zerwania jednego układu i ukształtowania nowej umowy społecznej. 10 Katarzyna Maćkowska Wyraźne bądź dorozumiane odwołanie się do idei umów społecznych dostrzegamy w większości dokumentów ustrojowych pochodzących z okre- su kolonialnego.

  • Sprawa Polska Na Kongresie Wiedeńskim
    Czasy Nowożytne • Tom XXI • Rok 2008 Władysław Zajewski (Gdańsk) Sprawa polska na Kongresie Wiedeńskim Ostateczne pokonanie „tyrana korsykańskiego” zwieńczone miało być kon- gresem pokojowym zwołanym przez zwycięskie mocarstwa koalicji anty- napoleońskiej do Wiednia, jesienią 1814 roku. Jednakże już sam termin „kongresu wiedeńskiego” budzi kontrowersje w historiografi i europejskiej. Przyjmuję w tym wypadku defi nicję historyka amerykańskiego Gordona A. Craiga, iż pod terminem kongresu wiedeńskiego należy rozumieć ca- łokształt negocjacji pokojowych, jakie odbyły się w stolicy Austrii przez osiem miesięcy od października 1814 r. Znawca kongresu wiedeńskiego brytyjski historyk sir Harold Nicolson twierdził, że był to jeden z najpracowitszych kongresów pokojowych Euro- py. Komitet Czterech zwycięskich mocarstw (Anglii, Rosji, Austrii i Prus) od stycznia 1815 przekształcił się za zgodą Anglii w Komitet Pięciu mo- carstw (doszła bowiem Francja Ludwika XVIII) i zgromadził się aż 41 razy. Obrady tego właśnie Komitetu Pięciu mocarstw można określić mianem rzeczywistego kongresu wiedeńskiego. Obradujące bowiem szersze ciało tzw. Komitet Ośmiu (tutaj uczestniczyła także Hiszpania, Portugalia Szwe- cja) zebrał się tylko 10 razy i w zasadzie aprobował, to co postanowił już Komitet Pięciu mocarstw. Ministrowie spraw zagranicznych spotykali się najczęściej na deba- tach w rezydencji austriackiego ministra spraw zagranicznych Klemensa Lothara Metternicha (1773–1859). Sprawozdania ministrów podsumowu- jące poufne ustalenia wędrowały po południu do monarchów (z wyjąt- kiem króla angielskiego Jerzego III), którzy czynili odręcznie swoje uwa- gi i spostrzeżenia. Liczby poufnych narad nikt nie ustalił i chyba już nie ustali. 34 Władysław Zajewski Ministrowie Komitetu Ośmiu wyłonili tzw. Commission Generale, która ze swej strony powołała 10 komisji szczegółowych do rozwiązywania konkretnych spraw i problemów związanych z upadkiem imperium napo- leońskiego.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You willa find good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the mBteriaj being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at thu upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Civilization and Corruption: Europe in the Philosophical History of the French Enlightenment
    Civilization and Corruption: Europe in the Philosophical History of the French Enlightenment Céline Spector Abstract Over some thirty years, much research in the field of postcolonial studies has de- bunked the very idea of a history of Europe as a civilization. With civilization and colonization as two sides of the same coin, it has seemed only right and proper to demystify the concept of which the West claimed paternity. Europe has been called upon to “provincialize” itself, in Dipesh Chakrabarty’s provocative formulation. In tune with a more general critique of the Enlightenment, in which the advance of Reason always threatens to become the reign of domination, this postcolonial critique has had a certain raison d’être, insofar as it was necessary to flatten the shaky edifice of a universalism that was nothing other than Eurocentric. But the assaults of “subaltern studies” have also had the effect of denying the reality that Europe was conceived as a civilization at the very time when the critique of its colonization process was beginning to take shape. In this paper, I will offer a defence of the Enlightenment’s anti-colonialism. Some will consider provocative the underlying thesis that eighteenth-century Europe century did not necessarily commit a “theft of history” by taking away the dignity of historical agents from colonized peoples or those left on the margins of ‘civilized’ spaces. But the truth is that several great philosophers of the French, Scot- tish, and Dutch Enlightenment paved the way for a new theory of world history Chicago_20000361.indd 1 01/10/14 10:25 PM 2 Author Name Goes Here capable of accommodating other civilizations as well as that of Europe.

This paper should not be reproduced without the consent of the author. THE UNITED STATES, RUSSIA, ili~D RUSSIAN-M1ERICA By Howard I. Kushner Since 1970 I have argued that the purchase of Alaska by the United States was the direct result of seventy years of expansionist pressure on the Russian colony by the American Government and special business and commercial concerns. Thus, I suggested, that Russia parted with Russian­ America only reluctantly, for as Edward de Stoeckl, the Russian Minister who negotiated the sale to the United States explained: "It vms a question of our selling them or of our seeing them [the U.S.] seize it." Horeover, if we view American Russian relations in the period 1790 to 1867 from the perspective of the Northwest Coast, rather than the amicable relations 1 alleged by most historians, we uncover a story of conflict and rivalry. My interest and the direction of my research aimed at discovering hmv, or even if, American attitudes and actions toward Russian-America fit into the history of U.S.
