Abstract

The article considers the problem of organizing the activity of the Interior Guard - military police forces of the Russian Empire of 1811-1864 - in the context of reformation of the Russian state apparatus in the first half of the XIX century. Special attention is paid to the Interior Guard functions, which involved security administration in temporary detention centers and security escort. The author reveals specificity of “guard - prisoner” relations in the pre-reform epoch as a kind of social compromise between the authorities’ efforts to rationalize administration and accepted norms of social behaviour.
