摘要:Economic modernization proceeded at an uneven pace in Russia. It was until the second half of the 19th century that the process began in Siberia. The abolition of segregation regulations contributed to the formation of bourgeois relations in industry and agriculture. New bourgeois were former government officials who had required connections to establish factories, and traders, who accumulated significant capital. The specificity of Siberia’s national development enabled the formation of the German national entrepreneurship in various economic sectors. The article is intended to characterize the German entrepreneurship and its place in the regional economy in the context of political modernization and industrialization. The foundation for the study is built on the archival documents, statistical digests and current research. The work is based on the regional approach.
