Author(s)

Abstract
The institute of governor-general authorities is one of the most important political institutes of imperial Russia. Its importance in the country's outlying territories was exceptional. At the same time, the importance of the Russian Orthodox Church in the outlying regions of the country was also significant. The Church promoted the integration of the country's outlying territories into a single imperial framework. Unfortunately, in world and Russian history there have been numerous instances of confrontation between secular and spiritual authorities. These confrontations often led to open conflicts. An example of this is the confrontation between the governor-general of Eastern Siberia Lawinski A.S., and Irkutsk Archbishop Irinej, discussed in this article.
