AnmerkungA study of Russian regionalism provides interesting insights into attitudes among the elite about the best methods to administer an enormous space from one center. This article claims that a rewarding approach to this problem is to contrast territorial with functional administration. By territorial administration is meant one in which the regional or provincial authority manages all the sectors while functional administration relegates that authority to a role of surveillance and subordinates all local sectors of administration to their central headquarters. This article begins with a survey of the regional idea between 1708 and 1825, and continues with an examination of the powers of a governor general during Catherine's reign and his relations with the central government, with an emphasis on his powers of appointment, the confirmation of judicial decisions, and the extent of his financial authority. It concludes with an examination of the ministerial reform during Alexander's reign, the creation of various types of regional authorities, and the attempt to create uniform regions across the whole empire after 1815. It concludes that centralization prevailed in the end, as it always had whenever the idea of a region was raised among the ruling elite of the empire.
