Abstract: This article discusses the reasons for the partial revival in the North Caucasus in the post-Soviet era formal regulation of land relations, based on the norms of religious and customary law. Based on field research conducted by the author in Dagestan, the article shows that this process can not be explained simply by the desire of the population "return to tradition", and has a tough economic motivation. The findings of the field research data on "traditionalization" are analyzed in the article as part of the institutional theory.
