Abstract
Introduction. Modern Russia’s sustainable legal framework is impossible without due regard for the historical legal diversity of its territories. From the 13th century to 1911, Tuvan history had been tied to that of Mongolic states and the Qing Empire. The customary law of Tuvans was influenced by Mongolian norms which formed the basis for Manchu legislation too. Goals. The article seeks to analyze the Code of the Chinese Chamber for External Relations to have served a source of customary law for Tuvans. Methods. The study employs source description and analysis methods, the historical comparative method, with special emphasis laid on principles of historicism and objectivity. Conclusions. The paper resumes that the Code is an important source of Qing-era law that provides insight into nomadic social norms. The results obtained may contribute to exploration of customary law of Russia’s nomads, processes of legal acculturation and pluralism.
