Ихтиофаги Амура и рыбопромышленники: от этнокультурной диффузии до гуманитарной катастрофы

Abstract

The article deals with the impact of fishing companies on the traditional river fishing of the indigenous peoples of the Amur region in the XIXth–XXIst centuries. The author examines the features of using such a fishing invention as zaezdok (fishing fence) in the traditional culture of indigenous peoples and the consequences of its borrowing and improvement by European settlers, who turned this technology into a means of uncontrolled enrichment through ruthless exploitation of natural resources.
