The article analyzes one of the aspects of the domestic Caucasian policy of the Russian Empire which facilitates the involvement of the territory and the population in the all-Russian socio-political field in this article. Resettlement policy became one of the forms of integration. The result of this practice was not only economic development of the region, but also a change in its socio-demographic background by resettling mainly the East Slavic population with the aim of strengthening the Russian component in the social structure of the population. Russian policy of settlement of the prairies regions of the North Caucasus, having the colonization in nature, has not only become one of the main factors of national, social and religious variegation of the region. One of the key components of migration was the religious aspect. Focusing on the religion of immigrants, the Russian government has contributed to the spread of not only the Orthodox religion in the region, but also the appearance here of the sectarians...

Introduction. The article concentrates on the religious policy of the Russian Empire in the Early Modern Time. For the first time in historiography, a study was carried out concerning the activities of Catholic missionaries in relation to the Kalmyk Khanate, the attempts of the Capuchin Order to establish contacts with the Kalmyk Khan Donduk-Dashi. Materials and methods. The study is based on mostly unpublished materials from the political and diplomatic correspondence of the Collegium of Foreign Affairs and the legislation of the first half of the 1760s, characterizing the methods and territorial scope of the missionaries activity, in particular, their penetration into the Kalmyk steppe. The methodology of the study has been determined by the structural and functional approach to the system of state bodies of Russia. In combination with this approach, a historical-genetic method was used, which is optimal for the study of changes in the power system of the Russian Empire from the beginning of the 18th century through the first half of the 1760s. Results. The section demonstrates the reasons for the aspiration of the Capuchin Order to the North Caucasus and the place of the Kalmyk Khanate in missionary plans, describes the standard epoch-specific missionary techniques for influencing the non-Catholic population. It has been determined that the Capuchins, relying on the support of Austrian diplomacy, bypassed the formal restrictions on missionary activity in the studied region, which could not but cause religious friction. The activity of Russian institutions to resolve differences of this kind is traced, the difficulties encountered by the authorities in the capital and especially at the local level in connection with the need for an appropriate settlement are shown. At the same time, it is emphasized that the specific interests of secular and spiritual bodies in such cases did not coincide, which had a long-standing and stable character in the south. The dynamics of the attitude of the Russian authorities towards missionaries in the Russian south is outlined. If under the conditions of the “Austrian system” — orientation towards the Austrian court, which had been in Russian diplomacy since the times of Peter the Great and under Empress Elizaveta Petrovna, their position was favorable, then after the accession of Catherine II and the crisis in Russian-Austrian relations, the possibilities of missionaries in the North Caucasus and the Kalmyk steppes were significantly limited. The author states that in the process of settling religious tensions, the Russian authorities in the early 1760s faced a weak legal framework both in relation to non-Orthodox religions and in general. The solution to the problem was outlined with the accession of Catherine II and in connection with the empress’s policy in the spheres of religion and law.

The article examines the little-studied and complex issue of relations between the new Caucasian state entities during the collapse of the Russian Empire and the following Civil War. The Revolution of 1917 led to the appearance on the political map of the Caucasus and Transcaucasia of a number of new state entities that fought for the recognition of their sovereignty. However, the political and military chaos in the region hindered both the internal process of consolidation of the self-proclaimed states, the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic and the Mountainous Republic of the North Caucasus in particular, and their entry into the international community. The civil war in Russia and the confrontation between the Red and the White forces instigated even more contradictions. Transcaucasian countries, primarily Azerbaijan and Georgia, support both the insurrectionary movement in the Terek-Dagestan region and the leaders of the overthrown Mountainous Republic who stayed in their territory. However, any attempts to create stable allied military, political and economic relations, undertaken by the leaders of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic and the Mountainous Republic, were not successful.

The article examines the history of transfers (displacements) of the population during the years of the Caucasian War. Transfers are analyzed in the context of the Russian Empire's policy of establishing military and political control in the region. The article is based on the materials of several federal and regional archives, as well as published historical evidence and research literature. The author concludes that the history of colonization of the North Caucasus, which is widely represented in historiography, needs revision. The history of Russian colonization is a narrative about the adaptation of the Cossacks and peasants to the new conditions of life and interaction with the local population. However, new settlers came to the territories previously occupied by the indigenous population forced to leave them. In this respect, it is the history of transfers that allows us to understand the motives of the imperial administration, the mechanisms of organization of relocations, and the resettlement reflection of the population. Another conclusion of the article is that during the course of the Caucasian War, population transfers became one of the standard mechanisms of the Russian administration, and the large-scale eviction of the Adygs in 1862—1864 was a continuation of this policy.

В статье рассматривается проблема русификации народов Северного Кавказа в процессе их интеграции в российское государственное пространство во второй половине XIX начале XX вв. В центре внимания оказывается интеграционная политика Российской империи, направленная на формирование единой социальнокультурной, экономической, политической общероссийской идентичности и утверждение российской государственности в северокавказском регионе. На основе изучения ряда работ разных авторов предпринимается краткий анализ содержания понятия русификация , определяются основные факторы, векторы и показатели эффективности русификаторской деятельности властей. Определено, что важнейшим механизмом на пути русификации северокавказских горцев стала колонизация, которую Российская империя расценивала как наиболее эффективный способ утверждения своего присутствия в крае. Процесс заселения северокавказской территории казачеством и переселенцами из внутренних губерний России выступил не только условием, но и важным фактором русификации региона. Регулируя наполнение Северного Кавказа русским элементом , государство строило большие ожидания относительно русифицирующего влияния поселенцев, способных оказать культурное и идеологическое воздействие на местное население. Предполагалось, что, вступая во взаимодействие с русскими мигрантами, народы Северного Кавказа смогут увидеть для себя определенную практическую ценность такого взаимодействия и проявят интерес к русской культуре и русской модели общественного устройства с единым государственным центром. Установлено, что мощный русифицирующий потенциал содержали русский язык, образовательные и культурные учреждения, формирующие благоприятную для аккультурации северокавказского населения своеобразную культурноисторическую среду. Проведенное исследование позволило заключить, что интеграционная политика Российской империи, основанная на идее русификации, способствовала мощному цивилизационному импульсу в развитии экономической, социальнополитической и культурной сферах жизнедеятельности северокавказских народов и ускорила их успешное интегрирование в полиэтничный российский социум. The article considers the problem of Russification of the North Caucasian peoples in the process of their integration into the Russian state in the second half of the XIX early XXth centuries. In the centre of attention is the integration policy of the Russian Empire aimed at the formation of a single sociocultural, economic, political allRussian national identity and the assertion of Russian statehood in the North Caucasus region. The study of several works of different authors enables to makea brief analysis of the notion of Russification, identify the main factors, vectors and effectiveness of Russificationconducted by the authorities. It is determined that the most important mechanism on the way of Russification of the North Caucasian highlanders was colonization, which the Russian Empire regarded as the most effective way to assert its presence in the region. The process of settlement of the North Caucasian territory by Cossacks and immigrants from the inner provinces of Russia was not only a condition, but also an important factor in the Russification of the region. The state was regulating the influx of the Russian element into theNorth Caucasus and had high expectations of the russifying influence of the settlers, who could have a cultural and ideological impact on the local population. It was assumed that the peoples of the North Caucasus interacting with Russian settlers will be able to see for themselves some practical benefitof such cooperation and will be interested in Russian culture and Russian model of centralized social organization. It is established that the Russian language, educational and cultural institutions, forming a kind of cultural and historical environment favorable for acculturation of the North Caucasian population, contained a powerful potential. The study concluded that the integration policy of the Russian Empire, based on the idea of Russification, contributed to a powerful civilizational impulse in the development of economic, sociopolitical and cultural spheres of life of the North Caucasian peoples and accelerated their successful integration into the multiethnic Russian society.

This chapter traces the trajectories in the North Caucasus from the end of the Caucasus wars of conquest in the mid-19th century until the outbreak of revolution in 1917. A detailed treatment of this epoch is necessary due to the fact that historical investigation of the post-war period, as opposed to the Caucasus wars themselves, has been rudimentary to date. While Russian historical research has begun to study this period systematically based on new sources, albeit without reaching any kind of consensus in assessing Russian policy, the Western literature has only dealt with this epoch in cursory overviews. This chapter remedies some of these deficiencies by looking more closely at the nature of Russian rule in the Caucasus after the end of formal military conquest. It also takes into account the societal responses and changes that took place during this period.

This article deals with the issues of Russian-Polish bilingualism in the Russian Empire in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Within the framework of the empire, the area of settlement of Poles was not limited to the territory of the Kingdom of Poland. Their presence in various Russian regions is shown by the example of the activities of “Polonies” in the Kharkov province, the North Caucasus, and Siberia. The migration of the Poles occurred both voluntarily, as was the case in the Kharkov province, or was forced, as a result of the repressions of the tsarist authorities and the exile of members of the Polish national movement, as in the North Caucasus and Siberia. It was not unusual that after the expiration of the term of exile, Poles voluntarily remained in the place they had been exiled to. Their occupation depended largely on the nature of the region and their social status. In the Kharkov province, representatives of the Polish intelligentsia carried out professional and cultural-educational activities, served as provincial officials, and were engaged in the improvement of urban infrastructure. In Siberia, Polish exiles became teachers as well as taking part in scientific expeditions that conducted research in the fields of geography, hydrography, geology, flora and fauna, meteorology, and ethnography of the region. To obtain better opportunities and adapt to the surrounding reality, the Poles needed, to one degree or another, knowledge of the Russian language. They acquired the language in various ways in addition to self-education: they were in constant contact with the local population and some even married those of the Orthodox faith. The participation of Poles in the social and cultural life of the regions under consideration contributed to a certain rapprochement and greater assimilation of the culture of both peoples.
