Abstract
The article examines the problems of the imperial project and state policy of Russia in the process of developing Siberia in the second half of the 19th – early 20th centuries. The object of the work is the analysis of historical and philosophical studies in American historiography. The subject of the study is the imperial project and Russia's policy towards Siberia during the active phase of resettlement to Siberia through the prism of American historiography. The author's conclusions are based on published and unpublished historical sources on this historical issue. The work highlights the main directions on this issue, analyzes and defines trends on the historical topic within the framework of the discourse of foreign historiography at the moment. The migration issue was important not only for domestic historiography, but was also deeply rethought in foreign historiography. The methodological basis for writing the article is the use of a new cultural and intellectual history based on the discursive practice of the scientific community in a certain socio-cultural approach. The problem of empire is one of the most pressing and hotly debated, despite its archaic origin, which only confirms its fundamentality and scientific significance. The article analyzes the approaches of foreign historiography to the problem of the imperial project: the project as colonization, the project as expansion, the project as a continuation of the domestic policy of the state. The work systematizes the main approaches, highlights their positive and negative sides. The role and importance of foreign historiography for understanding the imperial project is determined. The concepts of the imperial project within the framework of the frontier, modernization and colonization are considered, the general and difference are highlighted. The analysis is implemented through the methodology of new imperial history, which allows for a more constructive consideration of the research problems.
