Abstract

The features of mining and seasonal work (MSW) of the peasants of the Kuznetsk basin in the period 1880ies - early 1890-ies are considered. Within the above-mentioned territorial framework the content of the main varieties of MSW and their dynamics during 1887-1893 are covered. Attention is paid to the characteristics of each type of MSW. Based on the analysis of statistical data, the prevalence of each type of MSW among the peasant population of Kuzbass is estimated. The question is raised about the degree of profitability of different MSW. Special attention is paid to hunting, fishing, beekeeping, gathering and transportation works. The novelty of the study is seen in the fact that for the first time on the basis of processing of statistical data the state and dynamics of the development of MSW in the Kuzbass region are characterized by the end of the 19 th century. The differences in the state and development of the MSW on the cabinet (Kuznetsk district) and state (Mariinsky district and the southern part of the Tomsk district) lands of Kuzbass are demonstrated. This kind of research, based on the analysis of statistical data, is being undertaken for the first time. The social significance of the study is connected with the need to draw attention to the problems of sustainable socio-economic development of rural areas at the present time.
