| description | The most important of the internal functions of the state is the preservation of
peace and order in society. Usually, this function is implemented by the forces
of the political police, the effectiveness of which depends on many factors. An
analysis of the work of the Special Department of the Police Department in the
period preceding the First World War and subsequent social upheavals allows us
to draw the following conclusions. Individual figures of the department took steps
to build a corporate system as a response of conservatives to socialist movements
and organizations, creating controlled workers’ organizations. However, the police
provocation quickly outgrew the struggle with socialist movements, and the highest
ranks of the Special Department of the Police Department became participants in
the confrontation of the elites, which negatively affected the protection of public
order. Moreover, the agents of the Police Department actually served as a catalyst
for the formation of militant organizations of revolutionary terrorists actively
arranging political assassinations of statesmen. This work not only provoked political
confrontation and intensified the development of the revolutionary movement, but
also morally and materially disarmed police representatives. |
