Native Americans and the Russian empire, 1804--1867 (Alaska). - 422 p.

Chair: Reginald E. Zelnik.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 2002.

In a broader sense, this dissertation presents a case study in the practice of Russian colonialism. More strictly defined, it is about how the Russians attempted to change the cultures of indigenous peoples of their colony in North America (encompassing the Aleutian Islands, Alaska, and California) in order to make them conform to the image of loyal subjects of the Russian Empire. To analyze this process, I divide the initiatives of the Russians intended to influence the Native Americans into three broad categories: pacification, christianization, and russianization. These categories are heuristic devices that help illuminate the connections between, on the one hand, imposed and mediated cultural change and, on the other, such features as Russian America's peculiar labor structure in particular and the imperatives of the fur trade in general.

520 $a This study commences in 1804, because it was during that year that one of the two ships of the first Russian round-the-world voyage reached Russian America, and ends in 1867, the year that Alaska is transferred from the Russian Empire to the United States. The opening chapter discusses the goals, structure, and function of the Russian-American Company as a business venture, an imperial factor, and a colonial enterprise. It also introduces the indigenous peoples of the region and outlines their responses to being drawn into Russia's sphere of influence. Chapter Two analyzes how the initiation of round-the-world voyages—from the Baltic to the North Pacific via the Southern Hemisphere—changed the practice of Russian colonization in North America. Particular emphasis is placed on the transformational effect of these voyages on the representations of the colony's indigenous peoples. Chapters Three and Four focus on the motives and designs of the Russians to pacify the Native Americans. Chapter Five addresses how Russian colonial officials tried to reshape indigenous identities through russianization. The last chapter deals with how the Russians employed Orthodox Christianity to buttress both pacification and russianization.
