Abstract

The study of the problems of criminal political ideology objectively led to turn to theanalysis of the ideological basis of criminal law of the Soviet era, the sources of thisideology, forms and methods of its influence on the formation and implementation ofcriminal policy. Applying historical-legal, institutional and systemic methods of research,the roots of the criminal-legal policy of Bolshevism should be sought in the ideological andpolitical program and activities of the Bolsheviks, in the activities of their government,which chose terrorism against its own people. On the basis of this study, it is noexaggeration to say that the Bolshevik ideology (ideology of Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism)gave rise to a unique type of criminal law policy, whose main task was to ensure theexistence of power, and, to be more precise, first rebel groups power by means of anelementary armed coup, and later by a class of Soviet nomenklatura formed on its basis.
