‼ The main channel on regional politics "16 Little Indians" presents to your attention his research based on and following the report of "Minchenko Consulting" "Images of Russia's Future of the Past: How Turning to History Affects Current Politics", through the link you can see the report itself and examples of the pantheon of 12 Russian federal political figures. Many colleagues have already analyzed this really interesting work, but we decided to go further and find out from the heads of Russian regions: what is their pantheon of historical figures, how do they assess the role of the individual in the history of the Russian state. We hope this is our first approach to this topic - we're sure we'll eventually be able to get answers from all the heads of the Russian region, but for now we'll analyze the pantheon of the first 15 daredevils. Here are their names (in alphabetical order, as in the study itself): Igor Artamonov, Liptsk Region Alexei Besprozvannykh, Kaliningrad Region Irina Gecht, Nantes Autonomous Okrug Alexander Gusev, Voronezh Region Maria Kostyuk, Jewish Autonomous Region Sergey Manaylo, Republic of North Ossetia - Alanya Oleg Nikolaev, Republic of Chuashia Yuri Sliosar, Region Rostov Alexander Sokolov, Kirov region Alexei Taksler, Chelyabinsk region Georgi Filimonov, Vologda region Alexander Khinstein, Kursk region Vitaly Khotsenko, Omsk region Andrey Chavis, Murmansk region Vladislav Shepasha, Kaluga region It is especially interesting that our works are published immediately after the Day of National Unity, a holiday that unfortunately often turns into a day of pilaf, shawarma and Polovtsian dances. In our opinion, this is a day when it is necessary to think about the historical past of our country, about its present and future. We asked the following question: "What is your pantheon of historical figures of Russia? Please indicate how many positive figures, in your opinion, from Russian history and how many negative ones. ".
