Ордынский фактор развития русского церковного права XIII–XV вв.
The article presents an attempt to clarify the general trends and analyze some specific examples of how the form and content of canon law documents in the 13th-15th centuries were affected by the fact that Russian lands were under the rule of the Golden Horde khans. The discussion covers such aspects as the types of sources of church law, their content features, including references to the suzerainty of the Horde khans over Russian lands, relationships between Russian secular and ecclesiastical authorities with the Horde, and in some cases, forms of direct interaction between Golden Horde and Russian officials, etc. The conclusion is made that the Golden Horde suzerainty had a significant impact on the development of canon law and the relations between Russian secular rulers and church hierarchs during the period under consideration.
