In many ways Russia under Alexander I was an epoch of exploration and revision of empire and state-building. The authors of this volume explore the Alexandrine-era Russia not from the traditional vantage point of the emperor and his inner circle but from the point of view of experts and elites. These «men on the spot» drafted «maps» of the empire and its collective subjects and constructed social, political, and economic imaginaries of the empire. All these revisions and projects did not necessarily lead to an immediate and consistent (re)organization of the political, social, and cultural structures of imperial space. The Alexandrine Russia may be interpreted much more as a «laboratory» in which different potential scenarios for modernization were designed, discussed, and tested—but also rejected and forgotten.

Первая четверть XIX века была периодом «проактивного» совершенствования и «балансирования имперской ситуации» как на уровне проектов, так и в плоскости их имплементации в действующие практики административно-территориального управления Российской империи. Малоизученной остается попытка Александра I провести реформирование местного управления в 1816 – 1825 годах, когда известный своей нерешительностью и осторожностью император, поддержал идеи А.Д. Балашова и В.П. ...
