The Catholic Church in Siberia and Its Educational Activities for the 19Th Century Polish Exiles
34 Czech-Polish Historical and Pedagogical Journal The Catholic Church in Siberia and its Educational Activities for the 19th Century Polish Exiles Barbara Jędrychowska / e-mail: [email protected] University of Wroclaw, Institute of Pedagogy Jędrychowska, B. (2018). The Catholic Church in Siberia and its Educational Activities for the 19th Century Polish Exiles. Czech-Polish Historical and Pedagogical Journal, 10/1, 34–43. https://doi.org/10.5817/cphpj-2018-004 Polish 19th century exiles to Siberia are inseparably connected with the activity of the Catholic Church in the area, which was organized by the Mohyliv archdiocese with an archbishop in Sankt Petersburg. The two central Siberian Roman Catholic parishes (east in Irkutsk and west in Tomsk) were the first official organization for Poles living in the area. They played an important role in the life of a community of people sent away from home against their will, far away from home and their families. The parishes gave these people the ability to fulfil their religious needs and, at the same time, meant a part of their home country and freedom for these people. Thanks to the tremendous effort from Polish priests, who were often exiles themselves, there were libraries, orphanages, refuges, small schools and charitable societies organized in the parish. Key words: 19th century; Siberia; Polish exiles; Catholic church; Education; Patronage Poland entered the 21 century with memories of Siberian exiles that started in the 18th century and lasted, without a stop, throughout the entire 19th century. In the 20th century, Soviet deportations and gulags made their mark on another generation of Poles, who were transported east for gruesome exploitative work with the intent of extermination. -
Mordvins in Western Siberia in the Late 19Th to Early 20Th Century: Certain Issues in the Migration and Settlement
ETHNOLOGY DOI: 10.17746/1563-0110.2019.47.3.119-126 L.N. Shchankina Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Stremyanny per. 36, Moscow, 117997, Russia E-mail: [email protected] Mordvins in Western Siberia in the Late 19th to Early 20th Century: Certain Issues in the Migration and Settlement This study addresses the main aspects of the Mordovian peasants’ relocation to Western Siberia from the mid- 1800s to Stolypin’s agrarian reform, with a focus on resettlement and relationships with old residents, successful and failed unauthorized and reverse migration, and the displacement level. The sources are archival data, specifi cally E.I. Krivyakov’s and V.B. Rusyaikin’s manuscripts owned by the archives of the Research Institute for the Humanities under the Government of the Republic of Mordovia. Causes of migration were mostly economic, and the process was triggered by the abolition of serfdom in 1861, and then by Stolypin’s reform that was meant to defuse the imminent agrarian crisis in central Russia. On the basis of archival and published evidence, it is demonstrated that the main problems faced by the authorities were their unpreparedness for arranging the relocation of large numbers of peasants, insuffi cient funding, the small sizes of the plots of land allotted to new settlers, diffi culties with obtaining documents, the fact that governmental help was insuffi cient and not provided to all those in need (plots were not allotted to unauthorized settlers), the administration’s laissez faire in the resettlement process, failure to limit admission fees paid to old settlers, and other factors caused by poor organizational training. -

Regions and Administrative Division in the Electronic Repository of Russian Historical Statistics
Electronic Repository of Russian Historical Statistics - RISTAT.org Regions and administrative division in the Electronic Repository of Russian Historical Statistics Author: Gijs Kessler Introduction The Electronic Repository of Russian Historical Statistics offers key indicators on the social and economic development of Russia's regions for five historical cross-sections (1795, 1858, 1897, 1959, 2002). Data are standardised to facilitate their use for cross-regional and cross- country comparisons in social and economic history research. For entirely pragmatic reasons, the Electronic Repository at this point limits itself to the regions which are part of the modern-day Russian Federation (2002 borders). However, where sources also contained data for other regions part of the Russian state at that point in time, we have also included these data as a supplement to those for the "core regions". This primarily concerns data for the cross-section 1897, often gathered and published on one programme for all of the territory of the Russian empire at the time. For those cross-sections and topics where data were procured primarily from archival sources (1795, 1858 and 1959), we largely limited ourselves to data for Russia proper, in view of the time-consuming character of archival data-mining. Changes of internal borders and administrative divisions in the course of two centuries create serious problems for historical research from a regional perspective. To start with, data should be gathered for a unified list of regions from a wide variety of sources. For those cross-sections where sources allowed us to gather all, or most required data for one single year (1858, 1897, 1959, 2002), this generally did not present problems, because all data relate to one and the same administrative division. -

Shaidurov a , * a National Mineral Resources University (Mining University), Russian Federation Abstract The agrarian crisis in the European part of the Russian Empire in the middle of the 20th century seriously impeded agricultural progress. Agrarian overpopulation and peasants deprived of land in the course of the peasant reform of 1861 further aggravated the negative situation in the governorates of Central Russia, Belarus, and left-bank Ukraine. These factors provided fertile soil for migratory sentiments among peasants. It was resettlement in vacant lands in the Asiatic Russia and North Caucasus, which allowed most of them to preserve their homesteads. In the 2nd half of the 19th – early 20th century, Ukrainian peasants were actively engaged in the migration movement which was supported by the state. One of the main placement areas became Western Siberia where a large Ukrainian peasant community was formed. The history of research on the Ukrainian community in Western Siberia is fragmentary, as many aspects remain unstudied. Hence, the article focuses on the following questions: causes of the Ukrainian migration to the border lands of the Russian Empire; stages in the migration; main areas where Ukrainians resided in Siberia; population dynamics of the Ukrainian community; adaptation patterns specific for Ukrainian migrants in their new places of residence; their role in the economic life of Siberia in the early 20th century. -

Shaidurov a , b , *, Galina I. Sinko a, Yurii M. Goncharov c a Pushkin Leningrad State University, Russian Federation b East European Historical Society, Russian Federation c Altai State University, Russian Federation Abstract The timespan between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries witnessed the ethnic map of the regions taking shape in the Russian Empire. In this process, essential drivers were various types of external and internal migrations. With the influence of voluntary and forced migrations, different ethnic groups emerged in Siberia, living both in compact communities and dispersed over the vast territory. Gypsies in Siberia constituted one of the ethno-dispersed groups, with first mentions dating back to the 1720s. By the middle of the nineteenth century, Gypsies had spread throughout Siberian provinces. Despite such a long record, there are virtually no academic works in the Russian gypsiology on the history of Gypsies in Siberia and the paths their development took in different historical periods. The purpose of this paper is to reconstruct certain aspects of the history of the ethno-dispersed group. -
Dmitriy Mendeleev's Forecasts of the Population of Russia... and The
Tatyana N. Belova1 Academy of Law and Administration of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia Russian Federation, 119991, Ryazan, 1 Sennaya st. http://www.apu.fsin.su/ Dmitriy Mendeleev’s Forecasts of the Population of Russia... and the Realities of its Present Development Abstract. In his last work “The Sacred Thoughts” an outstanding Russian scientist and encyclopedist Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev has explored demographic processes, acting as an economist and sociologist. The author of this article examines methodical approaches and tools, repeats and continues calculations of Mendeleev using modern data and information technologies. Comparing Mendeleev’s forecasts of the size and age structure of population of Russia with the modern statistical data, the author discusses the reasons for the “failure” of forecasts. The arsenal of modern demographic tools can be supplemented with Mendeleev’s idea on using the formula (law) of the vertical parabola in studying the age structure (the dependence between the size of the group and age). Keywords: Mendeleev; size of population; fertility; mortality; population growth; age structure of the population. JEL CODES: J11, J13 Brilliant discoveries and inventions in the field of natural sciences (the periodic law and the system of elements, the elasticity of gases, smokeless powder, etc.) are just one side of the multifaceted scientific and social activities of the outstanding Russian scientist Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev. Throughout his life he actively participated in the economic life of the country; he not only thought, compared, advised, but even gave his own example of how to act. Thus, in the Klin district he bought “...about 400 acres of land, the main mass of which was occupied by forests and meadows” [Mendeleev, 1995: 17], organized there an exemplary agricultural production and in 6-7 years proved that even on scarce land near Moscow it is possible not only to provide its population with bread, but also to trade surpluses. -

The Russian-Soviet Resettlement Policies and Their Implications for Ethno-Territorial Conflicts in the South Caucasus
THE RUSSIAN-SOVIET RESETTLEMENT POLICIES AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS FOR ETHNO-TERRITORIAL CONFLICTS IN THE SOUTH CAUCASUS By Farid Shafiyev A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015 Farid Shafiyev Abstract This dissertation investigates the Imperial Russian and Soviet resettlement policies in the South Caucasus with a focus on Azerbaijan, and their implications for the ethno-territorial conflicts in the region. The periods of 1817-1840 as well as from 1878- 1914 during Russian Imperial rule are juxtaposed to the period of 1941-1953 of the Soviet administration in the South Caucasus. The selection of this time frame is based on the most active phases of the resettlement practices carried out by respective empires in the South Caucasian borderland. According to this time period, the most affected ethnic groups involved in the Russian-Soviet resettlement policies were Armenians, Azerbaijanis, Germans and Russians. As a contribution to transhistorical studies, this dissertation seeks to find not only parallels and continuity between the resettlement policies of Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union, but also aims at analyzing the modalities and complexities of empire- building in the borderlands under investigation. Thus, the dissertation will focus on differences in methods and approaches employed by the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union as they had different ideologies in empire- and state-building, which subsequently affected their resettlement practices. The research examines the imperial tools employed for refashioning the population in the borderland, such as Christianization and the “civilizing mission” and their connection to resettlement practices. -
Ethnic Entrepreneurship in the Russian Empire in the Era Of

Shaidurov a , * a Saint-Petersburg Mining University (Mining University), Russian Federation Abstract The second half of the 19th century brought about the modernization reforms in the Russian political system, which accelerated the development of the country's capitalist economy. The abolition of segregationist regulations contributed to the development of bourgeois relations in industry and agriculture. The pace of economic modernization was faster in European Russia, while the country‘s frontier regions in the Asiatic part of the Russian Empire seriously lagged behind the center. The role of agents for capitalist change in industry and agriculture was accepted by the members of non-Russian ethnic groups, such as Jews, Germans, Poles and others. They became new bourgeois who were former government officials who had required connections to establish factories, and traders, who accumulated significant capital. In the 2nd half of the 19th century, a major role was performed by individual entrepreneurship inside ethnic communities. Its scope comprised the sectors which generated no economic interest among Russians living in Siberia, and which required large capital investments (distilling, shipping companies). In the early 20th century the social composition of communities was blurry thanks to peasants who formed a key component in migratory flows to Siberia. -
Modern Approaches to the History of Altai in the 18Th – Early 20Th Centuries
Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 2020 13(7): 1099-1111 DOI: 10.17516/1997-1370-0628 УДК 94(571.1/.Five) Modern Approaches to the History of Altai in the 18th – Early 20th Centuries Denis S. Bobrov, Iurii M. Goncharov*, Evgenia V. Demchik, Irina V. Pyanzina and Valerii A. Skubnevsky Altay State University Barnaul, Russian Federation Received 11.03.2019, received in revised form 04.06.2020, accepted 04.07.2020 Abstract. This article is the result of the historiographical analysis concerning the history of the Altai development, Altai being a significant region of modern Siberia and Russia. The authors present the main directions of studying the Altai history of the 18th – early 20th centuries, as well as scientific and methodological approaches used by historians in the last two decades. The examination includes such directions of studying Altai history, practiced in the last two decades, as frontier development, history of management, socio-economic development, agrarian colonization, history of entrepreneurship, social and gender studies, etc. The general state of historical science associated with the growth of public interest in history, review of theoretical and methodological foundations of historical research determined the development of historical Siberian studies concerning Altai in this period. Consequently, the historical study of Altai in the modern (post-Soviet) research shows the importance of modern history-oriented regional studies. Moreover, the development of the historical studies regarding such a large and major region as Altai in the last 20 years evinces the existence of a multidimensional regional- oriented scientific school in Russian historiography. Keywords: History; Altai; Siberia; historiography.
