THE NAKAZ OF 1837 TO CIVIL GOVERNORS AND THE MUNICIPAL SELF-GOVERNMENT OF EAST SIBERIAN TOWNS

Plotnikova M. M.

The article deals with the overlapping of the governor’s authority with the competence of the municipal self-government according to the Nakaz of 1837 using the cases of the Irkutsk and Yenisei governors who interacted with the Irkutsk, Krasnoyarsk and Yenisei city dumas. The author comes to the conclusion that according to the Nakaz of 1837 the borders of the intersection of the municipal self-government and the governor expanded. From then on the governor began to supervize the maintenance of police and fire department by the duma, and also measures on improvement of the urban space undertaken by municipal self-government.
