Russian Documentary Global History With The Use Of Regional Archives

The research has studied certain provincial bureaucrats in order to create an image of Russian province bureaucracy and how they joined the public administration system during two historical periods of the Russian empire of the XIX century and the Soviet state until the middle of the XX century. The article raises a problem concerning the current state of Russian bureaucracy research from the early XIX century until the middle of the XX century with the use of the Regional archives of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The research part of the article raises three main issues connected with the problem definition: analyses of provincial bureaucracy genealogy; research of Orenburg governorate bureaucracy personal documents; revealing the specificity of new national elite personnel policy in the USSR. Research methodology is based on new local history or total microhistory with the use of Republic of Bashkortostan regional archives. The conclusion states all possible ways of further research connected with bureaucracy as of all-Russian process, where one of the Russian regions is used as an example of how the government policy influenced every social level from the XIX century until the middle of XX century. Research of developing soviet bureaucracy’s genealogy is one of the promising areas of modern locally-historical studies. A study indicates that still there are plenty of insufficiently explored things among provincial bureaucracy’s history of mid-level and especially low-level, including important aspects related to the sociocultural features of provincial bureaucracy.
