The north-eastern Polish dialects preserved in the poetry of Feliks Mieszczański from Kadysz village (Republic of Belarus)The article describes the variety of Polish spoken by the inhabitants of Kadysz – a village located in the closed border zone at the junction of three state borders: Belarus, Poland and Lithuania. Its population preserved the local culture and Polish as a means of everyday communication, due to the fact that during the Period of Partitions in Poland this area never became part of the Russian Empire, but remained part of the Kingdom of Poland, and today it is isolated from the Republic of Belarus by the closed border zone.The observations are based on the analysis of Feliks Mieszczański’s texts – a man who spent all his life in Kadysz village. He has never learned the literary variety of Polish or literary Russian, because of a mild mental retardation. Черты северо-восточного польского диалекта, зафиксированные в поэзии Феликса Мещанского, жителя деревни Кадыш (Беларусь)Статья посвящена польскому языку жителей деревни Кадыш, находящейся в закрытой приграничной зоне на стыке трех государственных границ: Беларуси, Польши и Литвы. Благодаря тому, что во время разделов Речипосполитой земли эти никогда не входили в состав северо-западных губерний Российской Империи, а являлись частью Королевства Польского, и сейчас изолированы от остальной части Беларуси закрытой приграничной зоной, местное население сохранило местную культуру и польский язык в качестве средства повседневного общения. Наблюдения представлены на основании анализа текстов Феликса Мещанского – лица, прожившего всю свою жизнь в Кадыше, никoгда не изучавшего польский литературный язык, а также практически не изучавшего русский язык (в связи с легкой степенью умственной отсталости).

The problem of the use of violence as an argument in communication in the North-East Caucasus before the start of Russian policy activation is considered. An assessment of the mountaineers' raiding practice to adjacent territories is given. That had the most painful effect on the situation in Georgia, which even had to buy off enemy invasions, which had acquired a regular, seasonal character. The influence of this factor on the specifics of Russian-North Caucasian relations is being clarified. After Russian settlements began to appear in the region, the vector of the mountain invasion moved from the south to the north. This could not but cause a response, a very harsh reaction from the empire. The question about the role of hunting trips in the socialization of mountain youthis raised. The circumstances of the use of raids to reduce social contradictions within local societies, their role in the selection of the nobility are examined. One of the consequences of such steps will be the spread of the slave trade. It is suggested that the ideology formed as a result of these actions will become the foundation for the teaching of Muridism in the future. An attempt of the Russian Empire to force the mountaineers to abandon such actions will cause a hostile reaction and result in fierce resistance.

Foreign trade policy and its role in the economic growth of the national economy are considered through the prism of history and comparison of the formation of the industrial economy in the Russian Empire and the North American United States. The author compares the protectionism of D. I. Mendeleev, described in his economic works, and the free trade thinking of the American scholar W. Sumner, who formulated the “misconceptions” of protectionism. Mendeleev’s proper protectionism is grounded on the basic principles (incentivizing internal competition, growth of consumption, bringing up of new industries ), which are relevant for contemporary Russia. The author gives a typical example of the formation and decline of the factory industry using the case of mirror factories in the Ryazan province. These historical analogies, the paper argues, are necessary for the correct assessment of the current situation and for coming up with valid solutions aimed at the development of the Russian economy.

2020 marks 280 years since the birth of the outstanding Russian naturalist and explorer Ivan Ivanovich Lepyokhin (1740-1802) and 275 years since the birth of the outstanding German explorer and naturalist Samuel Gottlieb Gmelin (1745-1774). An overview of scientific contribution to the study of nature and economics of the Russian Empire in general and the southeast of European Russia in particular made by these two leaders of the Academic Expeditions of 1768-1774 is presented. The author discusses a number of inconsistencies in S.G. Gmelin’s biography found in references (encyclopedias), scientific and popular science literature of pre-revolutionary Russia and the USSR. The question of I.I. Lepyokhin and S.G. Gmelin memorialization in Volgograd and Saratov Regions and the Republic of Dagestan has been raised.

The review of the XVIII International Scientific Conference "State and Law: evolution, current state, development prospects (to the 300th anniversary of the Russian Empire)" was held on April 29-30, 2021 at the St. Petersburg University of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Russian Empire existed on the political map of the world from October 22 (November 2), 1721 until the February Revolution and the overthrow of the Monarchy on March 3, 1917. The Russian Empire was the third largest state that ever existed (after the British and Mongolian Empires): It extended to the Arctic Ocean in the north and the Black Sea in the south, to the Baltic Sea in the west and the Pacific Ocean in the east. The Russian Empire was one of the great powers along with Great Britain, France, Prussia (Germany) and Austria-Hungary, and since the second half of the XIX century – also Italy and the United States. The capital of the Russian Empire was St. Petersburg (1721 - 1728), Moscow (1728 - 1732), then again St. Petersburg (1732 - 1917), renamed Petrograd in 1914. Therefore, it is natural that a conference dedicated to the 300th anniversary of the formation of the Russian Empire was held in St. Petersburg, the former imperial capital. The conference was devoted to problems concerning various aspects of the organization and functioning of the state and law, a retrospective analysis of the activities of state bodies in the Russian Empire. The discussion focused on various issues: the character of the Russian Empire as a socio-legal phenomenon and the subject of the legitimate use of state coercion, the development of political and legal thought, the regulatory and legal foundations of the organization and functioning of the Russian state in the XVIII century – at the beginning of the XX century, the characteristics of state bodies as an element of the mechanism of the imperial state in Russia, the organizational and legal bases of the activities of bodies that manage the internal affairs of the Russian Empire, as well as the image of state authorities and officials-representatives of state power.

The year 2014 marked the 160th anniversary of the beginning of the Crimean War, 1854–6. It was during that anniversary year that the names of Crimea, Sevastopol, Simferopol and the Black Sea re-entered the lexicon of Ireland, and so did the terms ‘Russian aggression’, ‘territorial violation’ and ‘weak neighbour’. Coincidentally, those same places and terms, and the sheer extent to which they perpetuated within Irish and even world media as well as popular parlance, had not been seen nor heard since 1854. It was in that year that the British and French Empires committed themselves to war in the wider Black Sea region and beyond against the Russian Empire. The latter had demonstrated clear aggression, initially diplomatic and later military, against its perceived-to-be-weak neighbour and long-term adversary in the region, the Ottoman Empire, or Turkey. As part of that aggression Russia invaded the latter’s vassal principalities in the north-western Balkans, namely Wallachia and Moldavia (part of modern-day Romania), collectively known as the Danubian Principalities. Russia had previously taken Crimea from the Ottomans in 1783....
