ОРЕНБУРГСКАЯ  ПОГРАНИЧНАЯ КОМИССИЯ (1799-1859 гг.)  В ФОРМИРОВАНИИ РУССКО-КАЗАХСКОГО ПОГРАНИЧЬЯ

The relationship between the peoples of Kazakhstan and Russia has a long history and goes back centuries. An important unifying factor was and remains a common cultural and humanitarian space with a historical origin. In the 18th century, the task of finding a strong ally and patron in the fight against the Dzungarian Khanate led the Younger Khan Zhuz Abulkhair and part of the political elite of Kazakh society to seek support from the Russian tsarist government. Which became the beginning of the regulation of border and internal conflicts in the Junior College, which is the subject of this article. The article examines the activities of the Orenburg Border Commission, formed in 1799, based on materials from the State Archive of the Orenburg Region. Subsequently, it became an important regional institution for the implementation of Russian imperial policy in the territory of the Younger Zhuz. In the course of the study, we consider the first Rules and regulations of the defense industry for the formation of the Russian-Kazakh border area. The policy of the central government was criticized by the chairmen of the border commission, but nevertheless it became a model for the formation of imperial governance in relation to other regions of the Kazakh population.
