Abstract
The active armed movement of the rural population, which swept most regions of Soviet Russia after the Civil War ended, was largely similar in its main features, namely: the causes of uprisings, driving forces, political and economic demands, slogans, organizational structure of detachments and tactics of fighting. In turn, the methods and means of their suppression by the Bolsheviks were identical – the active use of regular units of the Red Army or special forces. At the same time, referring to the characteristics of the white-green movement in the Kuban and Chernomor, we note the presence of certain features due to the historical development of the region. The first is the issue of economic activity, which underwent significant changes during the development of capitalism in the early twentieth century, when contradictions arose between the expansion of agriculture and the growth of military duties by the Cossacks as a military service class. During the period of military upheavals of 1914–1920. These contradictions have escalated and formed the basis of the confrontation between the government and rural society in the Kuban and the Black Sea region as a result of a decrease in the productivity of individual farms. The second is the strong traditions of self-government and communal land ownership that persisted in the Cossack region, which did not correspond to the ideological guidelines of the RCP(b) of the direct construction of socialism based on military-communist methods of distribution and consumption. These facts served as the basis for the beginning of the insurgency of the rural population of Kuban and the Black Sea region in the early 1920 s. and we determined its regional peculiarities.
