The paper reveals particularities of Siberia perception in the 19th century by the representatives of Russian intelligentsia, considers aims of their stay in Siberia and its contacts with various representatives of local population. Characteristic traits of life in governorate and provincial towns of Siberia are explained. Regularities revealed in the course of analyzing sources that were left by the Russian intelligentsia, let us speak about commonness of socio-cultural processes, which happened in the region of Siberia and central Russia in the 19th century, as well, as give reasoning for dependence of this processes from changes that occurred in cultural life of Russia. In the process of comparative analysis of diaries, traveler's notes and letters of L.F. Panteleev, A.P. Chekhov, V.Ya. Shishkov, V.G. Korolenko, S.P. Shvetsov, there were revealed differences and common features in their perception of certain sides of Siberians' life. Differences in perception of cultural life in the region by representatives of Russian intelligentsia were conditioned by reasons, due to which they found themselves in Siberia and, in much part by that with what representatives of the Siberian people they happened to contact. The article discusses distinctive features in ethic and esthetic perception of reality between the Russian population and Siberians. Such character traits of the Siberian people as pride, independence, practical absence of religious feelings and undeveloped ability of the world esthetic perception are reveled. Importance of these observations made by the Russian intelligentsia, is conditioned by that the local intelligentsia originated from the simple folk mainly, meaning they inherited their character traits, which in its turn influenced system of cultural values created by the them.

“…Perhaps the most well-known case is the "Philosopher's ships", which transported intellectuals −among them several Orthodox thinkers− expelled from Soviet Russia in 1922. Chamberlain (2008) and Finkel (2003) are exemplary sources adopting a different than mine perspective, in which this issue is discussed in detail. It should also be noted that among those intellectuals was N.O.…”

“…The unwillingness to come home is attributed to a pessimistic outlook on the quality of life and sustainability of reforms in Russia, as well as the fear of potential discomfort and uncertainty related to any new migration (Innovation Bureau Expert, 2009). Russian academics also worry about political repression and marginalization in cases of dissent, as was practiced in tsarist and Soviet times (Finkel, 2003;David-Fox, 2005;Minakov, 2013). The reluctance by western-educated graduates to run a "hopeless marathon of self-reintegration" seems to be borne out by the fact that institutional transformations have been stymied by the legacies of the academic profession, creating a situation in which a dominant group of "patriotic scientists," raised in the protectionist Soviet system, remains indifferent to the appeal of foreign language studies, international publications or global performance evaluation criteria, leaving the newcomers at a disadvantage (Yudakevich, 2014).…”

This study conceptualizes the internationalization of higher education as a legacy-bound response driven by geopolitical, cultural and economic dependencies. It examines the Russian case, and considers how Russian academics deal with complex sets of dependencies and rivalries, while sorting European, Asian and Soviet drivers in university positioning and partnership-building. The paper re-evaluates the path dependence perspective in the higher education literature by arguing that, notwithstanding the constructs and conveniences they are predisposed to select, academics have a choice to either comply with, or defy the governmental and institutional legacies imposed on them. The prevalence of one choice over the other, as well as an inconsistency of choices, shapes a complicated trajectory that can be referred to as "hybrid" development. This paper illustrates the progression of "hybrid" development by reflecting on the Russian legacy of imperial ambitions affecting the fragility of the global architecture of knowledge, policy development, cooperation and rule of law.
