ADMINISTRATIVE TRANSFORMATIONS IN THE TERRITORY OF THE BASIN OF THE KET RIVER IN THE XVII–XX CENTURIES
Addressing the issue of establishment of the relationship between the Russian population and natives of Siberia at the initial stage of formation of the power of the Russian state in this territory allows to reveal the prerequisites for the ethnic processes happening in the local ethnic environment in the XVII–XX centuries. The inclusion of local population in the structure of the large state was accompanied by assignment of duties to the population. This sphere was controlled by local administration. In this work we attempt to mark out the features of formation of a management system in Siberia and the extent of the influence of these transformations on internal development of local ethnic groups on the example of the basin of the river Ket which is the territory of traditional residence of the Narym group of Selkups (sussykum). The study of the relationship of the Russian administration with the Selkups of the river Ket revealed its dualism – on the one hand the state initially tried to cause as little harm as possible to traditional life. That is confirmed by the principles of national policy. On the other hand it sought to develop the economic capacity of the region, involving economy of Ket river region in the All-Russian economy. The economic (industrial) development of the territory led to the reduction of the number of the indigenous people, assimilation processes, exogamy, language loss, resettlement to the mixed settlements and acquiring of the Russian way of life.
