요약In 1901-1914, thousands of Molokans, a dissident Christian religious group, left several Russian provinces in South Caucasus, where they had spent several previous decades as colonists, for the United States. As factors in their decision, they cited both the drastic expansion of the state authority over their everyday lives (in forms such as universal conscription and government-run schooling), and the apocalyptic prophecies about global wars. Their vision for the future relied on a degree of separation from mainstream society and on distancing from the modernizing Russian and American states, both of which made an increased number of demands on its citizens. This dissertation studies the Molokan struggle to sustain a measure of internal solidarity and cohesion as a religious group confronting a succession of social and political changes in the two societies it straddled in 1901-1930.Based on my analysis of archival sources from Russian imperial and American governments, including police reports, welfare agency records, and diplomatic correspondence, as well as newspaper reports; of letters, and memoirs of the Molokans and their interlocutors in Russian and American societies, I argue that during the first three decades in the U.S., the Molokans made a series of compromises with the state that eventually resulted in the erosion of their vision of separateness and an increasing integration of the movement's membership into the American institutions. These compromises, often negotiated by the select representatives of Molokan communities, aimed at protecting the group from retaliation by the state when it passively or actively resisted its imperatives. However, each negotiation brought the group into increasingly closer contact with the state, as the individual Molokans still had to make their own choices after the intermediaries explained the stakes of cooperation. My dissertation traces this gradual warming-up to the modernizing and assimilating state through several case studies.
