Abstract
The article is devoted to an urgent problem of the economic history of the Far East — the tools for integrating the regional economy into the system of international trade and navigation. The authors focus on projects developed at the end of the Civil War to reanimate the Manchurian transit that proved effective in the pre-war period through the creation of the Grain Exchange in Vladivostok. The article shows the struggle of the exchange committee against attempts to put transit operations under the control of foreign capital. The work is carried out within the framework of a micro-historical approach. It is based on documents of the Vladivostok Stock Exchange Committee from the Russian State Historical Archive of the Far East. As a result of the study, the authors come to the conclusion that it is important to study both implemented and unfulfilled projects, which make it possible to assess the extent to which Soviet managers used developments from the pre-Soviet period to solve important economic problems.
