Abstract

The publication is devoted to the analysis of the main factors and trends in the formation and development of industry in Siberian cities at the turn of the XIX—XX centuries. It was established that the economic recovery in the country, the development of water and railway transport contributed to the creation of conditions for the founding of factory establishments in the cities of the region. Small private enterprises for the treatment of animals and plant products prevailed, new industries (say, chemical, power plants) appeared. The working class was small in number. According to the profitability of production, distilleries occupied the first position, then butter and brick, soap and flour mills.
