ПОЛИТИКО-ПРАВОВАЯ ДЕЯТЕЛЬНОСТЬ ДЕПУТАТОВ СЕВЕРНОГО КАВКАЗА В ГОСУДАРСТВЕННОЙ ДУМЕ РОССИЙСКОЙ ИМПЕРИИ В НАЧАЛЕ ХХ В.

Abstract

The article analyzes the political and legal activity of the deputies of the North Caucasus in the early XX century, during the formation and activity of the State Duma. It is noted that the tsarist administration, modernizing the state-political system of the country, could not ignore the multinational and multi-confessional nature of the Russian state and therefore tried to take into account these features of the Russian state-political system. The article concludes that the involvement of regional MPs in political and legal activities of the first legislature (State Duma) at the beginning of the XX century has allowed to bring to the attention of Central government authorities, the main problems of the North Caucasus region and provides a process for the integration of national and regional elites in the Russian political elite to pinpoint the positions of North Caucasian elites in the political space of the Russian state. But many legislative initiatives put forward by the deputies of the North Caucasus did not find support from the government authorities and their decisions were ostponed indefinitely
