Abstract

The article deals with the legal status of the Russian nationals who found themselves in Germany as a result of cross-border movements in the last quarter of the 19th and early 20th centuries and became stateless persons after the Russian Revolution of 1917, which destroyed the Russian empire. The purpose of this article is the analysis of the German state policy as regards foreigners-nationals of the enemy state. The author attempts to determine its content and goals of the German state, to answer questions about why the authorities went into significant restrictions for numerous Russian citizens who legally entered Germany long before the outbreak of World War I due to various circumstances and with different goals. According to the results of the study, archival and published documents were identified and made it possible to achieve the goal. The analysis of German and Russian historiography is carried out. The author selected methods and created a methodological concept of the study. Along with the implementation of general scientiic methods (synthesis, analysis), the author used the comparison method, as well as the system, structural-functional and hermeneutic methods, conirming the effectiveness of the interdisciplinary approach in the framework of the study. After analyzing the identiied documents, the author concludes that after the start of the war, the German state considered the primary task of changing the legal status of the subjects of the enemy country. The main goal was to secure their economy and prevent the property of foreigners to some extent provide an advantage to the enemy. Therefore, the German state introduced economic restrictive measures, primarily sequestration, and then eliminated all property rights of Russian nationals in Germany.
