Introduction. Decossackization is a complex issue of modern historiography of the Cossacks. The scientific relevance of the decossackization issue is caused by shortage of generalizing studies. The social and political relevance is connected with the Cossack Renaissance in modern Russia. It is possible to see a major boundary in decossackization, which divided traditional and modern history of the Cossacks. Methods. The author uses the method of analytical historiography, complex, structural and comparative analysis of historiographic sources, quantitative analysis of the nomenclature of studies. The bibliography statistics is received on the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) database. Analysis. Defining Decossackization: definitions, approaches, periodization. Soviet and post-Soviet historiography. The newest historiography of the 21st century. Alternative and expanded renderings of Decossackization. Approaches to how Decossackization should be determined in the legal systems of Russia and the USA. Determining Decossackization as the genocide of the Cossacks. Considering V.V. Putin and Patriarch Kirill’s expressed opinions on Decossackization; the influence of these opinions on the historiography in question. Emphasizing the topicality of researching Decossackization in the historical memory of the Cossacks. Most works on Decossakization were published already in the 21st century, but they amount to only about 1 % of the whole number of studies devoted to the Cossacks, which means that new studies into the question will be both topical and necessary. Results. The scholastic research into Decossackization stems from Soviet historiography. The post-Soviet period saw a wide range of opinions and suggested approaches to the problem of Decossackization. In the 21st century politicians, church leaders, lawyers, historians and the Cossacks themselves have reached a consensus on that Decossackization must be viewed as a tragedy. New researchers agree with the definition of Decossackization as genocide or a kind of cruel mass repression in the Soviet Russia.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the views of modern French researchers on the relations between Russia and the post-Soviet republics of Central Asia. This allows us to identify various interpretations of Russian foreign policy, and to understand the main approaches of French scholars analyzing the goals and tasks of Russian geostrategy in the region. As the article demonstrates, French historiography, along with the objectivist view on the Central Asian vector in Russian foreign policy, also includes works of ideological nature. Special emphasis is put on French works that focus on Russian political authors who speak of Russias neo-imperialism. These studies explain the Russian policy in Central Asia through the ruling elites ambition to resurrect an empire in the post-Soviet space and to return superpower status to Russia. Of special interest is the position of authors who try to explain the Russian attitude to the Central Asian region as, on the one hand, an expression of nostalgic feelings harbored by a great part of the population about the nations former greatness, assuming that these feelings have an impact on the leaderships policies, and on the other hand, as the Russian leaderships attempt to use Russias active return to the international arena for the consolidation and self-identification of society. It is observed that some French authors speak of a New Great Game. This very popular concept considers the actions of Russia and other powers operating in the region (USA and China) as a continuation of the historical rivalry between the Russian and British empires in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Russian authors have always been interested in French historiography; this is due to the latters scientific prestige and objectivity, and in particular its application of methodologies that further develop the tradition of the Annales School. At the same time, the growing French scholarship on the issue of Russia and post-Soviet Central Asian republics has not yet been subject to close and complex consideration, which defines the novelty of the article.

Full textAbstract:
Based on pre-revolutionary, Soviet and post-Soviet sources and literature, using comparative his-torical, typological, chronological, systemic and retrospective general scientific methods, the arti-cle provides a historiography of the Caspian Flotilla. The beginning of this process dates back to the time of the existence of the medieval Old Russian state and the Grand Duchy of Moscow, dur-ing the years of their existence, trade and economic relations of Russia along the Caspian Sea with the cities and states of the Eastern Caucasus were being established. A significant place in Russian historiography is given to establishing the Muscovite state in the Volga and Caspian basins and the founding of the Russian fortress city of Astrakhan in the Volga delta, which contributed to the development of shipbuilding and shipping on the Caspian Sea and served as a prologue to the founding of the Volga-Caspian military flotilla. Much attention in Russian and Soviet historiog-raphy is paid to the events of the early 18th century, when Russia, under the leadership of Peter the Great, achieved especially splendid victories on the coast of the Caspian Sea. As the authors note, the conquest by the Russian Empire was because of the Persian campaign of 1722–1723. The Western Caspian has changed the balance of power in the geopolitical confrontation between re-gional powers in favor of Peter’s Russia. According to several authors, the Caspian flotilla be-comes important with the coming to power of Catherine II and subsequent Russian emperors. Of particular importance in the confrontation with Persia was the Treaty of Gulistan concluded with it in 1813 and the Turkmanchay Treaty of 1828. In subsequent years, Russia anchored the western coast of the Caspian Sea and the South Caucasus. At the end of the XIX-XX centuries the main base of the Caspian flotilla is in Baku, in connection with which the sailors of the flotilla were drawn into the events of 1905-1907, February-October 1917, the Civil War in the Caucasus, dur-ing which the Volga-Caspian flotilla was created. In the initial period of the Great Patriotic War, the Caspian Flotilla gained the status of a front formation. After the collapse of the USSR, the Caspian flotilla was divided between Russia and Azerbaijan, and the primary base was moved from Baku, first to Astrakhan, and then to Kaspiysk. Extensive pre-revolutionary, Soviet and Rus-sian historiography of the history of the Caspian Flotilla testifies to the importance of the Caspian Sea and the Eastern Caucasus in the geopolitics of Russia from the Middle Ages to modern times.

The article is devoted to a general historiographic review of domestic and foreign literature on the study of the problem of the use of female labor on railways. The subject of the research is the publications of pre-revolutionary, soviet and modern researchers on the issue of women's contribution to the development of the railway industry of the Russian empire in the XIX - early XX centuries. The author attempts to answer the question how the place and role of women in railway activities before 1917 in the pre-revolutionary and soviet periods, as well as after the collapse of the USSR, was assessed. The article concluded that the literature of the post-soviet period significantly expanded the scope of studying the problem, but still relies on the historiography of the soviet period.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Although there were some accounts of the history of sport in Russia in the early twentieth century, it was not until the early Soviet period that scholarly research began in earnest. The first extensive works on the subject in Western languages appeared at the height of the Cold War in the early 1960s. In the U.S.S.R. the majority of publications came from higher education sports institutions and predominantly promoted Soviet physical culture and the legitimization of the system. This article focuses on three main research topics: the beginnings of sports and modernization in late Imperial Russia; sport and physical culture as an element of the Soviet way of life; and Cold War politics and Soviet sports. Although a considerable number of studies appeared both in the U.S.S.R. and in the West from the 1970s on, the most significant contributions have come in recent decades. Not only has historical research in post-Soviet Russia and in the West been freed from ideological pressure, but this period has also witnessed the rise of cultural history and a concomitant increase in research on sports as a cultural practice.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyses the main tendencies and peculiarities of functioning of certain aspects of Ukrainian-Polish relations during the Second World War in Russian historiography and journalism. The need to rethink the historiography of the Volyn tragedy in Russia is long overdue, so the role and importance of the identification function of historiography itself and the observance of the principle of objectivity in scientific and historical works have grown. Historiography provides a choice of research strategies, cognitive models, conceptual positions, and finally theoretical foundations for analyzing the past. In view of this, the purpose of the article was to synthesize and analyze the work of Russian scientists, to identify the main directions and to establish links between scientific and social discourses. The methodological basis of exploration was the principles of historicism, systematicity, objectivity. The methods of historiographic analysis and synthesis, genetic, problem-chronological, comparative, retrospective, predetermined by the research topic are used in the work. These methodological foundations allowed us to trace the evolution of historiographical discourse in Russia, its structural and institutional forms during the 1990s - the first decades of the 21st century. n historiography, given their mobility, are also subject to the method of description, that is, the disclosure of typical properties, features, differences, quantitative and functional characteristics. It is argued that the overwhelming majority of Russian authors portray Volyn events within the established post-Soviet narrative with correspondingly negative evaluations of the Ukrainian underground against the Polish population, describing them as genocide or ethnic cleansing. At the same time, the presence of a liberal trend in Russian historiography, which tries to avoid radical judgments, is noted. Negative Ratings and Plots: Volyn-related events regularly appear in the media, perpetuating the negative stereotype of a "Bandera" (and sometimes just a Ukrainian) in Russian society. The results obtained in the course of the study are actualized in view of the active use of the theme of Volyn events in the conditions of the Ukrainian-Russian war.

Full textAbstract:
The subject of this article is the assessment of the history of establishment and development of arms manufacture in Russia in the period up to the end of the XVII century given by the Russian researchers. The purpose goal consists in conducting a historiographical analysis of the works of domestic researchers of pre-revolutionary, Soviet and post-Soviet periods on the problem, and in formation of the general idea on the emergence of one of the critical branches of military industry in pre-revolutionary Russia. The author explores the initial period of firearms manufacturing in Russia and its geography; emergence and functioning of the Tula and Moscow arms factories in the XVI – XVII centuries; impact of the emerged in the XVII century blast-furnace hydraulic metallurgical plants and specialized arms manufacturing enterprises upon the development of the industry. The novelty consists in giving a new perspective within the domestic historiography on the problem of the initial stage of the history of arms manufacture in Russia. The article follows the evolution of arms industry at its initial stage, the regularities of existence of various forms of production organization and formation of centers of firearms manufacture. It is concluded that by the end of the period under review, the arms production capacities did not meet the actual needs of the Russian armed forces for firearms. The author makes recommendation on filling the gaps that exist in the history of arms manufacture in Pre-Petrine Russia.

Post-Soviet Historiography of 1917 and certain problems of contextualization. Antonio Gramsci’s CaseA quarter of a century ago, historians gained access to Soviet archives. Consequently, the events of the Revolution of 1917 finally received a comprehensive unbiased coverage by Russian scholars. The success of this work is impressive, but it also sets new tasks including the contextualization of the activities of foreign communists in Soviet Russia after the Bolsheviks came to power and established the Comintern. Among these figures was the famous and very popular Italian Antonio Gramsi.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis focuses on the reception of kantianism (especially, of Critique of pure reason) within Ecclesiastical academies of Russian Empire during XIXth century (1809-1866). The aim of this research is to introduce the reception of kantian philosophy in Orthodox thought, which has never been an object of special studies. Post-Sovietic widespread views used to read Orthodox thought as a hostile to Kantian philosophy, but their analysis shows a double methodological lack: they focused on a very few figures, taken as epigonic, and reduced Orthodox thought to “Russian religious thought” which began to spread out at the end of XIXth century. Following the recent trends in historiography of Russian philosophy, this reception is here examined in a speficic context (i.e. Ecclesiastical academies – a wide analysis of their features, both historical and philosophical is provided) and introduced from a point of view of two “case studies”: the first, I. Ja. Vetrinskij’s (Saint Petersburg Ecclesiastical academy) Institutiones Metaphysicae (1821), a latin handbook which historiography still didn’t take as an object of specific researches, shows the spread of rationalist post wolffian ideas combining with an ecletic lecture of Kant’s critical philosophy. The second, P.D. Iurkevich’s (Kiev Ecclesiastical academy) Razum po ucheniiu Platona i opyt po ucheniiu Kanta [Reason according to Plato’s Teaching and Experience according to Kant’s Teaching 1866], shows that the author was deeply familiar with both Platonic and Kantian philosophy, and his attempt to give a synthesis of their doctrines which could lead to an “ideal-realistic” perspective. Both cases are introduced as co-existing trends in “duchovno-akademicheskaja filosofija” (philosophy of Ecclesiastical academies). The text is introduced by a wide review of philosophical historiography about the reception of kantianism in Russia.

Full textAbstract:
Drawing on a lively recent historiography stimulated by the fall of the Soviet Union, this chapter considers various ways in which Russia/USSR can be regarded as an empire and goes on to explore the relationships between Russians and the myriad other ethnic groups within the Empire’s borders. After showing how those borders expanded and contracted between 1552 and 1991, the chapter discusses the resultant territorial integration and demographic intermingling. The bulk of the chapter concentrates on four fundamental shifts that changed the way Russia’s rulers and elites viewed the Empire’s diversity and rationalized imperial rule between the sixteenth and twentieth centuries. Arguing that authorities viewed the Empire and its population through four successive ideological lenses—Christian, civilizational, nationalist and Marxist—the chapter concludes by suggesting that the post-Soviet Russian Federation remains an empire, or at least that its imperial legacy remains crucial to its identity.

This chapter follows the history of defection from early debates among émigrés and western scholars in the developing Cold War to contemporary historiography. It also traces the changing Soviet debate about defection from the war to the present. It shows that current scholarly debates both in Russia and abroad are deeply entwined with this history itself. The chapter also serves as a historical genealogy of the position taken in this book. Tracing a possible convergence between the western historiographical school originating in post-war émigré discussions and newer Russian scholarship, it also documents the extent to which these two traditions remain separate.

Full textAbstract:
The advent of glasnost’ prompted a reassessment of many aspects of Russia’s musical past, especially in regard of key figures such as the composer Mikhail Glinka. The revisionism that swept Glinka scholarship in Russia itself thereafter promised much: new and better understanding of Glinka and his music, investigation of previously forbidden topics and reassessment of the sources. Although recent Russian studies have sought to re-contextualise and to reappraise the composer’s life and works in relation to the Western European musical tradition, problematically, this revisionist scholarship tends to fall victim to the clichés that it would seek to avoid: Glinka’s divergence from selected models is generally attributed not to his personal style, but to his Russianness, forcing us to perpetuate the myth of Glinka’s musical uniqueness vis-à-vis his nationality.

"Historiography of the Problem." In Examining the Relationship Between the Russian Orthodox Church and Secular Authorities in the 19th and 20th Centuries, 1–15. IGI Global, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.4018/978-1-6684-4915-8.ch001.
Full textAbstract:
In this chapter, the authors examine the crisis in the relationship between the church and the authorities. The authors come to the conclusion that the strict constant control of the church by the state led to the fact that at that time the church began to advocate a change in its status. Therefore, the church ceased to be the guarantor of the stability of the autocracy. Historiography of the problem of the relationship of the Russian Orthodox Church and the state in the 19th-early 20th centuries can be divided into pre-revolutionary, Soviet, and post-Soviet periods. The importance of studying historiography is expressed in the fact that it represents the first attempt at a comprehensive review of the historiographic heritage created by Russian church historians. Proceeding from this, an attempt was made to personify the main representatives of the Russian church-historical school.

The book’s conclusion discusses ways in which pedology and its legacies have been framed in late Soviet and post-Soviet Russia, while at the same time providing an overview of this book’s core contributions to the historiography and conceptualization of Russo-Soviet child science. The chapter begins with a summary of how pedology’s ‘ghost’ was treated in the late Soviet Union and how some of its strands ended up ‘haunting’ other institutional, disciplinary, or occupational frameworks. This is followed by a discussion of post-Soviet narratives about pedology and its fateful demise, especially constructions of pedology as a ‘repressed science’ (repressirovanaia nauka). The chapter critiques the rhetorical reification of pedology as a science that has developed in this context. It also considers the emergence in contemporary Russia of a number of movements focused on the scientific study of the child, which, in one way or another, make reference to the legacies of early twentieth-century Russo-Soviet child science (childhood studies, pedagogical anthropology, psycho-pedagogical diagnostics). The chapter ends with a summary of the book’s main conclusions, tying together key analytical points made across the preceding chapters. This section emphasizes the interest and importance that the history of child science presents for Russo-Soviet history more generally and revisits the question of where and how Russo-Soviet child science fits into a transnational history of this complex field.

The book’s introduction sets out the historical, social, cultural, and political background, linking the rise of child science in Russia and elsewhere with processes of rapid modernization characteristic of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The chapter begins by relating the emergence of the sciences of the child at this particular historical juncture to the expansion of the professional middle classes, highlighting the role that the concept of development played in the latter’s social self-understanding, which in turn helped shape the ideologies of the rising welfare/warfare states. The historical roots of the child study movement are identified in an evolving post-Enlightenment biopolitics of childhood. The chapter stresses the normative nature of the sciences of child development and outlines the different kinds of norms that came to shape this field’s interests and priorities. Next, the chapter dwells on the multidisciplinary and inter-professional character of child science, elaborating how this both influenced and problematized its mobilization and self-identification as a movement. Also highlighted is the transnational nature of this movement. An analysis of the positioning of Russians within it is followed by a discussion of the path that child science took in the Soviet Union in the interwar era. The concluding section is a review of extant historiography on Russo-Soviet child science and a brief outline of the content and approach of the present study.
