It examines the military activities of white emigration in China, especially in Manchuria, evaluates attempts to influence the situation in the neighboring regions of the Soviet Union in the 1920s, and further characterizes the reaction of the Soviet authorities. General scientific methods (analysis, synthesis) and general historical (historical-genetic, historical-comparative; problem-based and chronological, historical-systemic) are used. The authors dwell on the background and reconstruction of the general context of the facts. Vivid and extensive quotations from various witnesses are provided. By way of conclusion, the hypothesis of the study is confirmed that the influence of white emigration on the life of the Soviet population, which is undesirable for the Soviet authorities, is eliminated by a combination of measures of force and propaganda: the creation of borders, troops, campaigns, and the assassination of emigrated leaders. The actions of the paramilitary units of the White emigration hinder the life of the local population and are neutralized thanks to the policy of the Soviet authorities.

The article examines the ideological influence (party leadership) in the building industry in the post-war period using the material of Siberia. The review reveals a characterization of the role of the Communist Party in the USSR. Further, the applied methodology is disclosed and the historiographic situation is characterized.

The article is devoted to the Russian military construction on the example of the St. Petersburg Military District in the period from 1864 to 1917. Without taking into account the military factor, it is impossible to reconstruct the socio-economic development of our country’s regions. The scale and priority of military construction affect the long-term goals of the state. “Strategic” motives could both give an impetus to the economic growth of some regions, and on the contrary significantly restrain the development of others. St. Petersburg contains the results of many years of headquarters work such as all plans for mobilization and the sequence of replenishment, loss and restoration of the armed forces, stocks of maps. The main gunpowder, cannon and shell factories were located near St. Petersburg, while pipe, cartridge and mine factories are located in St. Petersburg itself. In St. Petersburg are stored the vast reserves of the State Bank, the Mint, the treasures of the Hermitage, the incalculable capitals of private financial enterprises, the money reserves of the State Treasury.The conditions of quartering significantly determine the combat training of troops in peacetime and, accordingly, their combat qualities in military conditions.
