In the article, based on the analysis of modern research, a retrospective analysis of the participation of various social institutions in education is carried out. Three stages are identified, within which the designated institutions occupied a leading position in the organization of education and training: family, church and state. Based on the analysis of the content of the activities of these institutions, it is concluded that only in the 19th century the normative consolidation of the status and functions of each of the institutions in education begins. The means and individual practices used by these institutions for education and training at each stage are identified.

The article is an essay on the history of Russian emigration of the XVI–XIX centuries and contains the information about the most vivid and representative episodes of this process, which are associated with the fate of a number of public and political figures who left the Fatherland for various reasons (A. M. Kurbsky, G. K. Kotoshikhin, A. A. Vinius, N. I. Turgenev, I. G. Golovin, A. I. Herzen, etc.). It is noted that Russia faced the problem of mass emigration in the middle of the XIX century, which was caused by the reasons for the rapid growth of ideological dissension among the Russian aristocracy. Paris, London and Geneva, where special groups (labor, religious, Jewish, political) oppositional to the Russian official authorities are forming, are becoming the centers of Russian emigration in Europe. Once abroad, many Russian emigrants undertook cultural and educational initiatives aimed at changing the situation in Russia and strengthening its international relations.

In the article the author tries to investigate the image of a Siberian city based on analyses of V. V. Bervi-Flerovsky’s writings, the social figure of second half XIX century.

The work provides a description of a number of Siberian cities (Tyumen, Tomsk, Krasnoyarsk, Kuznetsk, etc.) made by V. V. Bervi-Fleurovsky in the 1860th years including a brief description of their architecture, as well as the level of well-being and lifestyle of citizens. Based on the description, the author tried to distinguish common features attributed to the Siberian city (proximity to transport corridors, poor employment, multi-layering of the economy of citizens, the traditional way of life, etc.) by V. V. Bervi-Flerovsky. The author concludes that V. V. Bervi-Fleurovsky considered awareness and education of citizens and the population of the surrounding territories as the main factor in the development of the cities of Siberia.

The article discusses the prospects for using archival materials from the state archive of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug-Yugra as a source for studying the ecological history of Yugra in the 1960s-1980s. Archival documents are of particular importance in determining the role of the state in environmental protection. An analysis of the fund’s documents makes it possible to single out a group of sources: minutes of meetings of the sessions of the Khanty- Mansiysk Okrug Council of Workers’ Deputies, work plans and specialized information about the activities of various enterprises. A detailed and comprehensive study of the documents of the fund will allow researchers to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the interaction between nature and man in this period.

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of publications devoted to the history of archaeological research on the territory of separate subjects of Russia. In this aspect, the territory of KhMAO-Yugra is of no exception. One of the important sources for studying the history of archaeological research is information about the delivery of open sheets. Every year the number of publications based on these data increases. Up to now there are no similar studies on the history of archaeological research on the territory of KhMAO-Yugra.

Objective.This publication is an analysis of information on the delivery of open sheets as a source for studying the history of archaeological research on the territory of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug-Yugra in recent times, in the period from 2012 to 2021.

The basis of the study is the data on the delivery of permits (open sheets) for the right to conduct field archaeological work on the territory of KhMAO-Yugra in open access, posted on the official Internet portal of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation (https://culture. gov.ru /). The leading research method is a comparative analysis of tabular data.

For the first time, information on the delivery of open sheets for the right to conduct field archaeological research on the territory of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug is being introduced into wide scientific circulation. Based on this information, a statistical analysis is provided, which allowed us to identify some of the main trends in the dynamics of the number of archaeological studies in the region in the general Russian context.

This article analyzes the historical views of the Dutch scientist J. Huizinga, and also attempts to identify the author’s methodology on the example of Huizinga’s monumental work «The Autumn of the Middle Ages» to determine his methods for working with the history of everyday life.

Material and methods: the main sources for writing the work were J. Huizinga’s articles from the collection «Homo Ludens», his monographic study «The Autumn of the Middle Ages», as well as the essay «The culture of the Netherlands in the XVII century». Among the methods used in this work, the methodology of content analysis was used in the framework of work in the research field of «the history of everyday life».

The article is devoted to the discussion of the results of domestic researchers’ study of the ideology and movement of cultural populism in the last third of the 19th century — early 20th century. The degree of study of their political biographies and ideological heritage and its impact on the general understanding of the place and role of Cultural populists in the development of the ideology and movement of the rightist populism are established. It was based on the analysis of biobibliographical indexes by Y. V. Abramov, S. N. Krivenko and I. I. Kablitz (Yuzov) published by the author of the article in 2017–2021. The difficulties of studying the ideology of cultural populism and the reasons for the prevalence of personalized approach in the national historiography is analyzed. It is noted that there are still disputes among modern researchers in understanding the goals and objectives of «cultural» work of the post-reform intellectuals in the village. The article proves the necessity of a clearer definition of the notion of «cultural populism», as well as the need for further development of the general periodization of its history and typology of the main currents of cultural populists’ thought. The author’s observations and conclusions are supplemented with references to the opinions of the reviewers of these indexes.

The article reconstructs one of the episodes of «going to the people», which was not sufficiently considered in historiography. This is the propaganda of the populists in the Urals among the representatives of the religious movement of «non-payers». The study is based on unpublished sources, some of which are introduced into scientific circulation for the first time. The authors revealed the role and place of religious movements that were in opposition to the authorities in the plans of the revolutionary populists before and after the «going to the people». The history of the emergence and development of the «non-payers», as well as the main provisions of its religious teachings, are considered by the author. The authors show why this part of the inhabitants of the Urals was included in the revolutionary plans of the populists. The authors reconstructed the history of the relationship between populists and the Urals’ sectarians, show the connection between the trip of the revolutionaries to the Serginsky mining district and their communication with the sect «non-payers». The article presents the conclusions about how the radical intellectuals influenced the development of the «non-payers». The connection between the propaganda of the populists and the change in the forms of resistance to the authorities among the sectarians has been established.

At the end of 1884 the «People’s Will» party suffered a heavy loss. The revolutionary south of Russia started an effort to its restoration. The congress was organized one year later as the result of hard work. At this event problems of local groups and terroristic tactics were discussed, contacts  were  exchanged,  prospects  were  assessed,  propaganda  was  held,  the  executive committee was appointed, and restoration of contacts of north and south of the country began. This event was a stage for transformation of fractured revolutionary groups of the South into a full-fledged South Russian Organization of «People’s Will».

The reforms of the 1860-s and 1870-s gave rise to a whole pleiad of figures who contributed to the democratization of the country’s socio-political life and its progressive development. Among them a prominent place belongs to Nikolai Fedorovich Annensky. He was widely known in social and political circles. The paper attempts to consider his social, cultural and educational activities that remained active and diverse throughout his life. As a result of the study of the issue, it was found that the issue had been poorly studied. On the basis of a complex analysis of sources and research literature, the author comes to the conclusion that N. F. Annensky played a significant role in the social movement of the post-reform period. He took moderate positions while advocating reforms and legal forms of struggle against the government.

The biography of the exiled revolutionary-populist L. A. Ivanov is restored in the article using the methodology of «personal history». The author analyzes the mechanism of decision making by the central and provincial authorities in relation to revolutionaries who have the status of political exiles, using reconstruction and study of Ivanov’s lifetime in Turinsk and Surgut as an example. Special attention is paid to the identification of the circumstances of the life and death of L. A. Ivanov in Surgut.

The author comes to the conclusion that the little and vindictive desire of the tsarist government to tighten and regulate the regime of political exile as much as possible had detrimental consequences for the Russian Empire. On the one hand, it increasingly aggravated tensions between the authorities and the opposition part of society, and on the other hand, it seriously undermined the prestige of the autocracy on the international scene and tipped the scales of world public opinion towards supporting the Russian revolutionary movement.

In this article, based on the principles of the «personal history» approach, the fate of the revolutionary E. I. Averkieva, one of the participants in the trial of the 193s, is under discussion, the details of her life and activities before her arrest and in political exile in Western Siberia are reconstructed. The features of the formation of the worldview of female revolutionaries in Russia who joined the protest were analyzed on the example of her biography. It is concluded that the determining factors in the life of E. I. Averkieva, which influenced on the formation of her political beliefs, were the environment and the specifics of gender socialization.

In the existing literature participants in the revolutionary movement are often viewed as frankly sick people, which is associated with the specifics of marginal existence and repression against them by the state system. In this regard, a special study of this issue is relevant, since the formed image of the “sick revolutionary” casts doubt on the ability of the participants in the revolutionary movement and the radical opposition to realize their socio-political ideals in case of coming to power. Based on a specially created database of one and a half thousand representatives of the revolutionary movement and the opposition, using historical-typological, historical-comparative, quantitative and prosopographic methods, the authors prove that, although being in exile and hard labor had a negative influence on the health of revolutionaries, but the rhythms of life time of participants in the revolutionary movement generally coincide with the rhythms of those politicians who were not subjected to any repression and whose standard of living was higher. The revolutionaries and their opponents were members of a single Russian society that had just begun to move from traditional to modern society. The theses about the extreme spread of mental illness among revolutionaries and their tendency to commit suicide are being questioned. The presence of a large proportion of revolutionaries who have overcome the 70–80-year barrier speaks of their enviable vital capacity, the reasons for which are analyzed in details in the article.

The article examines the causes, nature and consequences of a large-scale and tragic episode of the peasant movement in the Serdobsky district of the Saratov province in October 1905, known as the Malinovsky pogrom. For the first time, the author proposes to consider this event as two interrelated and mutually conditioned illegal excesses — pogrom and counter-pogrom. Adhering to this concept, the author conducts their comparative historical analysis, revealing the common and special in the pogrom and counter-pogrom. The article focuses on the organization of the pogrom in Malinovka and surrounding villages by revolutionary parties and the involvement of the rural poor people in it on the one hand, and the spontaneous desperate action of local peasants motivated by the cessation of the defeats of private farms, as well as the protection of traditional community values, on the other hand.

The article is devoted to the study of some aspects of political prisoners’ welfare regime, as well as the everyday aspects of their life in Russian prisons at the beginning of the last century. The author, based on the materials of the Prison Department of the Saratov Provincial Government, explores the issues of the organization problems and welfare conditions of political prisoners and the peculiarities of their daily life on the example of penitentiary institutions of the Saratov province. The article focuses on the measures taken by the prison authorities to ensure reliable protection and suppression of illegal actions in detention places of political prisoners. The author focuses on the methods and forms of prisoners' struggle with the prison administration  for  their  rights,  and  in  particular,  the  characteristics  of  the  excess  of  such a confrontation — mass riots in the Tsaritsyn prison.

The article is devoted to the study of the content and methods of revolutionary agitation and propaganda work of the parties of Socialist revolutionaries and Social Democrats in 1904–1905 among the peasant population of the Volga regions. The authors, involving sources of official and personal origin, including those introduced into scientific circulation for the first time, consider issues related to the goals and methods of agitation and propaganda of radical parties in the peasant environment, the struggle of local authorities with these crimes, including the prosecution of revolutionaries accused of distributing banned literature. Summing up the research, the authors determine the nature and methods of agitation and propaganda work of radical parties in the peasant environment, its consequences for the deployment of a pogrom movement in rural areas, and also assess the adequacy and sufficiency of government measures to curb illegal inflammatory, anti-government agitation and propaganda activities of Social Revolutionaries and Bolsheviks.

The article undertakes an analysis of the problems of Russian anarchism, which most manifested themselves as a result of the revolutionary events of 1917–1918. Analyzing the activities of adherents of the domestic variation of this doctrine, aimed at solving specific problems and some of its ideological foundations in a specific period of time, the author identifies the weakest and most controversial aspects that did not allow Russian anarchists, in the end, to achieve their goals and transform revolutionary Russia within the framework of variety of their concepts.

The Great Patriotic War posed large-scale challenges to the bodies of State Arbitration of the USSR, to which earlier such institutions had no experience of countering. There was a need for increased efficiency in decision-making aimed at adapting the activities of State Arbitration to the logistical, economic and social situation complicated by wartime conditions. At the same time, it was necessary to increase the pace and quality of dispute resolution subordinated to the USSR State Arbitration bodies in order to strengthen the efficiency of participants in economic legal relations, providing the front with necessary products and satisfying the needs of the rear.

Purpose of the article — identification of some problems in the activities of the USSR state arbitration caused by the course of the Great Patriotic War, and the establishment of ways to overcome them, as well as the results of the activities achieved by the USSR State Arbitration in the historical period under consideration.

This article is based on the materials contained in the State Archive of the Russian Federation, as well as in the dissertations of reputable researchers and other published scientific works. The main research methods used in writing this article are: narrative, historical-comparative, chronological and statistical methods.

The result of the research reflected in this article is the identification of some of the problems that the USSR State Arbitration was forced to face during the Great Patriotic War, the establishment of ways to overcome them and the coverage of the results achieved. At the same time, during the research activity that formed the basis of this article, some archival documents were used for the first time, which determines the novelty of the material submitted for publication.

The article, based on previously unpublished archival materials, aims to analyze the historical experience of organizing educational work with employees of the territorial bodies of the NKVD of the Far East during the Great Patriotic War. The reasons for the actualization of the ideological and educational impact on military personnel in wartime conditions are revealed. The main directions of educational work, its forms and organizational mechanism are consistently analyzed. It is concluded that during the war the system of educational work had to evolve, adapting to new external challenges. Separate regional features of this process are highlighted.

The relevance of the study is determined by increasingly acute discussions regarding the effectiveness of the mobilization model of the economy that operated during the Soviet period of national history. The purpose of the publication is to analyze the results of the implementation of the state industrial and scientific-technical policy in the USSR in the 1950s on the basis of currently declassified archival materials. The legitimacy of management decisions is determined, the scale of research works is presented more accurately on the example of the defense and radio engineering industries. The conclusion is formulated that the 1950s can be defined as a separate and quite independent and effective stage in the evolution of the state industrial and scientific and technical policy. This stage was distinguished by the intensification of research activities, by the change of priorities, including technical re-equipment, and by the search for the most effective forms and management structures. Despite the technological lag behind the leading capitalist countries in a number of areas, a genuine scientific and technological revolution was coming. A powerful scientific and technical complex provided with highly qualified personnel was being created.
