He received good recommendation from gendarmerie for his service in Suwałki: ”В преданности его правительству и в сочувствии национальному Русскому делу, нет никакого повода усомниться. Своей обязанности он зани- мает весьма усердно”. On some other occasions he was described as being knowl- edgeable about his work. He was clever in his relations with pr. Cherkassky, which allowed him to put his projects forward. If gendarmerie had any reservations, these were caused by his presumable gullibility and reckless confidence in Polish clerks. As a curator of the scientific district he was regarded as a supporter of the Minis- ter of Education D. A. Tolstoy, who backed him up in his conflict with Governor- General of Kharkov. 14.

Shaidurov a , b , * a Saint-Petersburg Mining University (Mining University), Russian Federation b East European Historical Society, Russian Federation Abstract In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, historians continued to focus much attention on the history of minor ethnic groups, but the state of this body of knowledge is quite varied. Russian historical gypsiology is in its early stages of development. Progress is being slowed by limits of known written archives. So, one of the key objectives is to identify archival documents that will make it possible to set and address research goals. In this paper, we will introduce the options that were put forward for acting on and reacting to the situation of the Gypsies during the Russian Empire, both theorized on as well as put into practice between the 1780s and the 1850s. The situation of the Gypsies here refers to the relations between the Russian Empire, represented by the emperor and his bureaucratic organization, and the Gypsies who found themselves in its territory. The solution for the issues from the Gypsies’ point of view involved their rejection of traditional lifestyles and of integration into economic and social institutions during a particular historical period.

Title: Russia marches South: army reform and battlefield performance in Russia’s Southern campaigns, 1695-1739 Issue Date: 2017-04-26 CHAPTER 2 FRIENDS, FOES AND FRENEMIES IN THE SOUTH If the period from the end of the seventeenth to mid eighteenth century was a chessboard, then opposite Peter’s desire to assert his authority and power over vast territory stood important political and military players who were determined to put an end to his “march”. The following chapter will be divided into several subsections, each dealing with a particular element of the complex geopolitical puzzle that the Pontic region from the first decades of the eighteenth century resembled. Firstly, the focus will be on Russia’s chief adversary – the Ottoman Empire, a foe as determined and as ambitious as the tsarist state itself. Then the main features of the Crimean Khanate, as an element of the overall Ottoman military system, will be defined. However, the Khanate was a player in its own right and pursued its own interests which will also be presented in the current chapter. Next the dissertation will outline the development and the downfall of Safavid’s military and political power, followed by the establishment of a new force under the ambitious and talented Nadir Shah. The subchapter “At the Edge of Empires - the Pontic Frontier and its People” will examine the soldiers of the steppe – Cossacks, Kalmyks, and Nogais, who were an essential element of the social and military ethos of the Pontic frontier and played crucial role in the events, which will be analyzed in detail in the second part of the research.

DAVYDOVA* *Irina Davydova – PhD in Sociology, Unaffiliated Scholar, worked at Novosibirsk State University, Manchester University, Newcastle University. Address: Newcastle, Great Britain. E-mail: [email protected] Citation: Davydova I. (2018) Mutual Assistance among Russian Peasants: Practices of Pomochi and Their Evolution in the Course of Modernisation. Mir Rossii, vol. 27, no 3, pp. 107–129. DOI: 10.17323/1811-038X-2018-27-3-107-129 This paper presents a study of pomochi as an example of the practices of mutual assistance among Russian peasants, and of the transformation of these practices in the course of modernisation. The study relies on various sources, including materials from ethnographic surveys conducted in the nineteenth century, and the archive of life-histories of villagers, recorded in 1991–2 in the Saratov region. The practices of mutual assistance are considered from the methodological position, which derives from works of Winch and Schutz, who emphasised the fundamental distinction between social conceptions, which are constitutive of social life, and sociological concepts, which are tools of sociologists and are constructed according to the rules of their academic discipline. This position assigns a subsidiary role to sociological concepts and theories, suggesting a pragmatic choice of those, and requires heightened sensitivity in the interpretation of data. Accordingly, the practices of mutual assistance have been considered in terms of Sahlins’ typology of reciprocities, as a relic of the ancient communal farming system, in terms of a broadly Marxist approach as a form of production cooperative, and in terms of Chayanov’s theory of peasant economy – each illuminating particular features of mutual assistance among peasants or certain aspects of peasant life in general.

    Peasantry As the Main Military Force During Ukrainian Revolution Period 1917–19211

    DOI https://doi.org/10.36059/978-966-397-138-4/88-103 PEASANTRY AS THE MAIN MILITARY FORCE DURING UKRAINIAN REVOLUTION PERIOD 1917–19211 Masnenko V. V. INTRODUCTION The modern period was the time of social transformations of the humanity. The main tendency was the demolition of traditional society in all aspects of being. Another feature was the mass character of political life (alongside with the development of parliamentary system and mass political parties). The social roles and behaviors of different social layers changed as well. The emancipation of peasantry, in its broader meaning, was one of the leading tendencies of the general process of modernization. The determining factor that accelerated this process was the emerging of mass army with the mechanism of conscription. In agrarian societies the peasantry was the main component of military service. Ukrainian peasantry in Russian empire was a latecomer to this modernization process. However, it only slowed down its emancipation and it accelerated only during the World War I and the following revolutionary events. The aim is to investigate the peculiarities of Ukrainian peasantry militarization that determined its leading role in the events of Ukrainian revolution 1917–1921, including the participation in regular armies, rebellion movement and peasantry war. 1. During the World War I The World War I was the turning point of the modernization. Millions of peasants were torn apart from their traditional agrarian lifestyle and peasant world; they lost the connection with their usual way of keeping the household. Such a drastic catastrophic event could not but substantially transform the peasant’s outlook.

It is the oldest existing high school in Russia. History The first maritime training school was established in Moscow as the Navigational School in 1701. The School was moved to St Petersburg in 1713 as the Naval Guard Academy. The school was renamed the Sea Cadet Corps on 17 February 1732 and was the key training establishment for officers to the Imperial Russian Navy. In 1800, with the offering of a 'forstmeister' course, the first formal training program for foresters in Russia was established at the academy. On 15 December 1852 the school was enlarged and renamed the Gentry Sea Cadet corps (Морской шляхетный кадетский корпус) with an intake of 360 students. A new building on Vasilievsky Island was also built to house the school. Following the destruction of the building in a fire in 1771 the school transferred to Kronstadt until 1796 when the Czar Paul I ordered a new building in the capital. The school expanded and became the Maritime College in 1867 and renamed again to the Sea Cadet Corps in 1891. The Corps was granted a Royal charter in 1894 and closed after the revolution in 1918 Post Revolution The College reopened in 1918 to train officers for the new Red Navy between 1926 and 1998 the school was named in honour of Mikhail Frunze. The school was merged with another Naval school in 2001 and renamed the Peter the Great Sea Cadet Corps of the St Petersburg Naval Institute.

It operated from 1912 to sometime between 1917 and 1920. Territory and Statistics Territory: The Governorates of Chernigov, (Kharkov until 1912), Kiev, Kursk (from 1912), (Podolia until 1912), and Poltava1 Membership (1915): 6662 Churches (2915): 223 Origin of Seventh-day Adventist Work in the Territory The first Adventist mission work in Russia took place in Crimea in the late nineteenth century, when Russian emigrants to America sent Adventist literature back home. While Adventists began work in many other places in the Empire, the work in Crimea spread north to the neighboring Governorates. Organizational History The Little Russian Mission was organized at the Russian Union meeting in Moscow, March 18–29, 1908. For its formation, the Governorates of Chernigov, Kiev, Podolia, and Poltava were cut off from the Middle Russian Mission, as well as the Kharkov Governorate from the South Russia Conference.4 The changes took effect at the start of the following year.5 At the end of its first quarter, the mission’s membership was 376.6 Initial officers were the advisory committee member and minister J. Perk, advisory committee member J. T. Böttcher, licentiate J. Pilkevitsch, missionary licentiates P. Sviridov and S. Provalovsky, and missionary nurses Rosa Kleist and Olga Naukas.7 The mission became part of the Russian Union.8 Three and a half years after its organization, at the Russian Union meeting in Riga, Latvia, in April 1912, the Little Russian Mission’s territory was modified and it was organized into the Little Russian Conference.

Focusing on the captivity theme, this thesis explores diverse individual captivity stories written within the grand context of Russia’s expansion into Central Asia. It aims to show that captivity narratives not only tell of the vulnerability and uncertainty of the empire during its expansion, but also reveal the rapid shift of power in Central Asia in the nineteenth century. They witness Russian captives’ growing awareness of Central Asia as a site of Russia’s future colonization, and the captives’ self-awareness of their Russian and imperial identity. This thesis is organized according to various themes that appear repeatedly in the narratives examined.
