Siberia in the political and legal views of the confederation of anarcho-syndicalists of Russia (according to the materials of the bulletin of the Siberian information agency and the newspapers “Solidarity” and the “Voice of labour” 1989-1991)

Among the numerous socio-economic and political theories of the 20th century, the theory of stateless socialism, anarchism played an important role. N. I. Makhno in Ukraine, I. Broz Tito in Yugoslavia have both tried to embody it in reality. The possibilities of self-governing communes and work collectives in increasing the interest of workers, reducing the bureaucratic burden on finance and enterprise management, and increasing labour productivity are still of interest to theorists. Events of the 1980’s - 1990’s filled with collapse and civil war in the territory of the Yugoslav Federation built on the principles of anarcho-syndicalism. In the course of the Perestroika in the Soviet Union, among the numerous parties and movements, anarchists of the USSR began their work. Having become an integral part of the opposition to the Soviet system, the federal state and the communist regime, anarchists (anarcho-syndicalists) contributed to the development of crisis phenomena in the socioeconomic sphere. The idea of creating a Confederation of Siberian lands and the relationship of a newly formed subject of international relations with a geopolitical player of the studied historical period proposed by anarchosyndicalists in Siberia approximated a geopolitical catastrophe - the collapse of the USSR.
