Regionalism in the History of Russian Thought

The article discusses regionalism as an important movement in the Russian intellectual history. The author distinguishes three types of regionalism: Russian, Ukrainian, and Siberian, all of them sharing the principles of federalism. The philosophical and methodological foundations of regionalistic ideology were laid by narodnichestvo, positivism, and slavophilism. A detailed analysis is given to the program of the Siberian regionalism, the so-called «Siberian questions».
