Аннотация

Starting from the idea that the empire does not identify with a monolithic structure, but rather with a network of complex relations arbitrated by the Center, and stimulated by the Periphery, which involves asymmetrical elements of social, economic and cultural life, we need to consider a complex reconstruction of the Center-periphery interference regarding the history of Bessarabia in the Russian Empire. The integration of Bessarabia did not follow a simple transposition of the model, but had an individual character, characterized by an alternation and / or a folding of several political-administrative models. The regional administrative system underwent mutations as a result of paradigm shifts at the Center, which in turn were influenced by peripheral reactions. Keywords: Russian Empire, Bessarabia, Center, Periphery, autonomy, homogenization.
