- Abstract
The problem of religious extremism constantly attracts the attention of various researchers. Religion has an important role in maintaining social stability and legitimizing State power. The separation of religious organizations in the Russian Empire was carried out according to the principle of their relationship to the state power and the Russian Orthodox Church. Actions that could provoke the destabilization of the current socio-religious situation were also noted. The object of study of this article is Russian religious sectarianism. It is considered by the authors as a historical form of religious extremism containing deviant and delinquent components. The legal and religious characteristics, the author's classification of religious sectarian organizations operating at the turn of the century on the territory of the Yenisei province, in accordance with the criteria of religious extremism are given: interreligious hatred and enmity, radical change in the existing socio-political structure on a religious basis, a statement of exclusivity, the use of violence against opponents. The content of the concepts of “sectarianis” and “schism” used by the political institutions of the Yenisei province in relation to Old Believers, international movements, ancestral faith and philosophical and theological movements is differentiated. The authors note that the concept of «sectarianism» was mainly used in relation to religious organizations that separated from Orthodox Christianity, offering their own interpretation of the doctrine and opposing the performance of state duties. A pronounced negative attitude towards them was observed precisely from the state, which perceived this behavior as an encroachment on the authority of the authorities, with a rather restrained position of the Russian Orthodox Church.
