Abstract

The article examines ideological interaction between the Russian Empire and Europe in the 18th — 19th centuries basing on the analysis of extensive historical and theoretical material. The reforms of the early reign of Alexander I were developed within the framework of the Private Committee using European political experience and philosophical concepts of the Enlightenment. The theories of the “philosopher king”, “social contract”, “separation of powers” and others were used while discussing reforms, but in a rather truncated or distorted form. The experience of the French revolution was the reason for the selective and careful application of enlightened terms and concepts by Alexander I and his entourage. Nevertheless, the preparation of reforms within the framework of the Private Committee combined quite harmoniously their enlightened context and monarchical character.

Keywords
