The Rear Area of Yeniseysk Governorate in the First World War Period

Due to the increased attention to the problems of studying the culture of memory and the centennium since the beginning of the First World War, the author examines the work of the Military-Industrial Committees and the railway workshops, “shoe” and the food crises, unemployment, charity in Siberian reserve regiments and treatment of the war prisoners. The paper also analyzes the resulting necessity to struggle with alcohol consumption during the wartime. The author studied the publication of newspapers, theater activities and work with political exiles, influencing the developed public consciousness in Yeniseysk Governorate. As a result there is an understanding of not only assistance to the front, but also of how the population of Yeniseysk Governorate and refugees survived during the war years.
