Abstract
The paper addresses the Kamchatka period of the history of Orthodoxy in Yakutia (1856 – 1869) as one of the stages of activity of the Russian Orthodox Church on the edge of the Empire’s borders in the context of the state policy which included the tool for integration of the ethnic group of the region in the all-Russian social and economic structure in the course of intercivilization interaction. The civilization method of research was used.
The role and importance of the activities of Archbishop Innokenty (Veniaminov) in changing the structures of the Russian Orthodox Church in Yakutia are defined, which contributed to the emergence of the Church’s administrative autonomy, with the establishment of the Vicariate and the reform of the Spiritual Board, and also the clergy of Yakutia with the opportunities for a number of benefits associated with specific features of living in the Far North: the payment of travel, the increased size of the salary, pension content outer payment etc. It was discovered that during the studied period the Kamchatka Bishop was granted the right to admit representatives of the local population in the clergy, which allowed to further solve the problem of staff shortages, which is topical for the Republic of Yakutia. It is revealed that being a part of the Kamchatka Diocese created the preconditions for the establishment of an independent Yakutsk and Vilyuysk Diocese.
