Abstract

ABSTRACT This article explores the postimperial political projects of the Sakha national and party intellectuals in the early twentieth century. Focusing on the processes of imagining a postimperial order, it examines the logic of and ways in which the Sakha national intellectuals (the first generation) envisioned educational activity, aspiration to self-government (autonomy) and the idea of federation. After the Soviets seized power in the region, the Sakha party intellectuals (the second generation) adopted and used the experience of the first-generation national intellectuals to establish the Yakut Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic in 1922.
