The article focuses on the project of local administration known as the
‘governor program’ of Alexander I. It was implemented in the interior provinces
of the Russian Empire in 1819. The project intended to unify the system of governorgeneral
mediation, and it was dismantled at the start of Nicholas I’s rule. Using the
fundamental idea of the project, the Emperor wanted to re-organize administration of
Russian governorates. The study of Governors’ documentation (1828, 1837, 1842, 1853),
its contents, and gendarme’s reports allows us to reconstruct the imperial regional policy,
based on the specificity of administrating separate regions of the Russian Empire.
