In late 2015 Lambert Academic published a book co-authored by two scholars from Tuva – M.P. Tatarintseva (TIGPI) and A.A. Storozhenko (TGU) and titled “Old Believers in Tuva: a retrospect and contemporary situation”.
This collection of articles examines the history of Old Believers’ resettlement from various regions of Russia to Tuva, their accommodation, everyday life and interaction with local clerical and secular authorities, and the specific details of this ethnoconfessional subculture within the Russian population of Siberia. Arranged in a logical order, the articles unfurl the history of Old Believers in Tuva and shed light on their current situation and transformations they have undergone throughout the century and a half of their life in Tuva. Scholars consider Old Believers one of the most conservative ethnoconfessional groups.
As permanent residents of Tuva, the authors have first-hand knowledge of the everyday life of contemporary Old Believer community. Nevertheless, in their research they try to devote their attention to both the rich history of Old Believers in Tuva and to the current state of this ethnoconfessional group.
The preface to the book explains the motives for writing it and the authors’ attitude to their subject.
