Biographical/Historical Note
After the fall of the Soviet Union, Igor' Mikhaĭlov served as the representative of the Dniester Moldovan Republic to Moscow.
In the mid-1990s, he worked for the Russian Deputy Prime Minister Valery Serov. Since retiring from government work, Mikhailov
has been a journalist and political analyst.
Scope and Content of Collection
The Igor' Alekseevich Mikhaĭlov collection documents post-Soviet independence movements in Abkhazia and Moldova as well as
political developments in the Russian federation during Boris Yeltsin's presidency.
The
Abkhazia file includes printed matter and serial issues on the Georgian conflict and Abkhaz national identity. Many pamphlets, such as
Abkhaziia: ne Gruziia, advocate independence from Georgia. This series also contains a reprinted interview with the former president of Abkhazia,
Vladislav Ardzinba.
Of particular note in the
Moldova file are photographs and documents pertaining to the Dniester Moldovan Republic (Transdniestria), which declared independence
in 1990. In addition to newspapers, political flyers and government documents, there are accounts of violence against civilians
collected by the Association of Women of Moldova.
The
RSFSR and Russian Federation file includes documents on economic development and CIS integration after the fall of the Soviet Union. The bulk of the series
consists of Duma decrees from 1999 to 2002.
