СТАНОВЛЕНИЕ РОССИЙСКОЙ ГОСУДАРСТВЕННОСТИ В ЕВРОПЕЙСКОЙ АРКТИКЕ И ФОРМИРОВАНИЕ ПОЛИТИКО-ПРАВОВЫХ ВЗГЛЯДОВ АВРААМИЯ ПАЛИЦЫНА
FORMATION OF RUSSIAN STATEHOOD IN THE EUROPEAN ARCTIC AND DEVELOPMENT OF POLITICAL AND LEGAL VIEWS OF ABRAMIUS PALITSYN

Summary/Abstract: Amid a noticeable increase in attention to the Arctic in modern conditions, it is an urgent task to identify the reasons why Russia has become one of the leading Arctic powers. The article is the first attempt to identify the relationship between the formation of Russian statehood in the Arctic and the formation of the political and legal views of one of the direct participants and organizers of this process, a famous medieval Russian publicist Abramius Palitsyn. The authors emphasize that in the Western Arctic (on the Kola Peninsula) throughout almost the entire history of the Russian state starting from the XVI century there has existed one stable part of the border that has not changed to this day. Participation in the activities aimed at establishing control over this territory became an important milestone in the formation of Palitsyn’s ideas about the relationship between the state and society as a whole, laying the foundation for the formation of his political and legal views, which later were developed in his journalism. The authors used the method of content analysis for studying Palitsyn’s views, while pervious researchers implemented traditional means of qualitative analysis for this purpose.
