Abstract
In the article, based on the materials of the memoirs of the official of the Resettlement Administration A. A. Tatishchev, identifies the agrarian and ecological capabilities of various regions of Asian Russia in the aspect of organizing the settlement and arrangement of resettled peasants. The main stages of the professional biography of the imperial official of the department as an imperial expert are traced, the approaches and practices used by specialists in determining the agrarian and environmental circumstances that favor or hinder the attraction of the migrant contingent to the formation of settlements in certain areas of the vast region are identified. Deconstruction of the memoir discourse of A. A. Tatishchev, made taking into account the «generic» properties of the source, allows us to establish the course, content and sequence of expert actions that ensured the effectiveness of the resettlement work on the eastern outskirts, to correct the stereotyped ideas about the resettlement bureaucracy as an inert mass of Russian officials, to rethink the results of their work in the context of the reception of the colonization potential of the Asian Russia in a broad chronological and territorial context.
