Ограниченная законность: специальные правовые режимы на территории Британской Индии в 1858-1937 годах

Аннотация

Представленная статья посвящена анализу формирования и эволюции специальных правовых режимов на территории Британской Индии в 1858-1937 годах. Цель настоящего исследования – выявление особенностей и роли этих режимов в системе колониального управления Индией во второй половине XIX – первой трети XX века. Рассматриваются законодательные механизмы, с помощью которых колониальная администрация ограничивала действие общих правовых норм в отдельных регионах и устанавливала в них особый порядок управления. Основное внимание уделено закону об управлении Индией 1870 года, закону о «перечневых округах» 1874 года, их последующим модификациям, а также положениям реформ Монтегю – Челмсфорда 1919 года. В статье показано, что провозглашенная децентрализация и расширение участия общественных представителей в законотворчестве сочетались с последовательным расширением дискреционных полномочий исполнительной власти в отношении окраинных и племенных территорий. На основе анализа документальных материалов было установлено, что с 1858 по 1937 год в Британской Индии сформировалась многоуровневая система специальных правовых режимов, предусматривавшая возможность избирательного применения общего законодательства на отдельных территориях. Демонстрируется преемственность указанных правовых режимов вплоть до их формальной отмены в 1937 году и влияние этих режимов на последующее правовое устройство независимых Индии и Пакистана. Исследуемая в представленной статье тема ранее не подвергалась рассмотрению в отечественной историографии вследствие как своего узконаправленного характера, так и недостатка доступных источников по ней. Кроме того, процессы, связанные с правовым устройством Британской Индии, долгое время не являлись приоритетным направлением отечественных исследований южноазиатской истории. Научная новизна статьи заключается в том, что в ней впервые представляется комплексное описание особых механизмов правового регулирования в колониальной Индии.
