Основные направления деятельности органов власти в Кабардинской АССР в марте 1944 — мае 1945 годов

Abstract

The article examines the activities of state authorities of the Kabardian autonomous Soviet socialist republic at the final stage of the Great Patriotic War. This phenomenon is considered against the background of the deportation of Balkarians to Central Asia and Kazakhstan. The nomenclature of positions and resolutions of the Kabardian Regional Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) were studied in terms of restructuring the management system in the republic. It was established that among the actualized problems of development of the management system during this period was the aggravation of the personnel crisis, in which the deportation of the Balkar people was added to the number of main causes (participation in military actions, high death rates of both military and civilians). It is noted that among the main areas of activity of the republic authorities in the period under review are actions aimed at improving the material and living situation of orphans and children of front-line soldiers, structural changes in government, harvesting and bread-making on collective and state farms, launching socialist competition and etc. Attention is drawn to the fact that after the deportation of Balkarians, the main constitutional functions of the authorities as compared with the previous period did not undergo significant changes. It was concluded that the main transformations in the system of power of the republic in the period under review were associated with the transformation of the administrative and territorial structure of the region and the change in the ethnic composition of leading staff.
