This material is devoted to identifying the directions in understanding the essence of the political and legal ideology of Siberian regionalism within the framework of a set of works by Irkutsk scientists. In methodological terms, the study relies on the approaches of historical and typological tools, which are aimed at identifying narratives in the historiography of a separate topic, in our case – the ideology of Siberian regionalism (democratic regionalism). The theoretical basis of the work is the body of research works of East Siberian researchers published in the 21st century. The authors note that in understanding the ideology of Siberian regionalism as a political phenomenon, one can talk about a number of traditions, approaches and even schools. This is not surprising, because the past and present of the Asian part of Russia are difficult to consider in isolation from the sociopolitical movement of regionalists. Therefore, in many cities of the Eastern outskirts this line of thought is the subject of scientific knowledge. The article establishes that Irkutsk scientists have accumulated solid experience in comprehending the essence of the regionalist program. Glorious traditions in understanding the true integrative nature of the political doctrine of regionalists are presented today in numerous publications by L.M. Dameshek, I.L. Dameshek, A.A. Ivanova, Yu.A. Zulyar, A.S. Madzharova, V.N. Kazarina, S.I. Goldfarb, and others. The authors state that a certain center for the study of Siberian democratic regionalism has been formed in Irkutsk. The basis for the formation of the East Siberian school of studying the phenomenon of the regionalist program is the continuity of generations and the localization of the work carried out. The approach of this group of researchers is original, which is expressed in the knowledge of general issues of the history of Siberia and the place of the regionalist movement in it.
