Persepsi Generasi Milenial Terhadap Gerakan 30 September 1965

The 30 September 1965 Movement was a momentum for political change in Indonesia after Independence on 17 August 1945. Six generals, plus a first officer, were killed in that incident. One of them was the KSAD, Lieutenant General Ahmad Yani, five deputies from the KSAD, as well as a bodyguard for the Minister of Defense/Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces (KSAB). The killer of the victim who was called the 'Hero of the Revolution' was a troop from the Tjakrabirawa/ Presidential Guard Regiment led by Lieutenant Colonel Untung. Almost 60 years have passed, what is the perception of the millennial generation towards this event and its impact on the current Indonesian political atmosphere? As a teacher of Indonesian Ideology and Politics, I have an interest in detecting that perception in order to build an up-to-date analysis, using the most theoretical approach possible, and to build new conclusions that are relevant even if tentative. One theory that is maintained and updated is Social Change from Thomas S. Kuhn. So far, Kuhn's Theory of Social Change emphasizes that every society must always experience Social Change, which is covered in various factors and Normal Science. Several factors were mentioned, such as Economy, Politics, Culture and Technology. At least the four factors are quite dominant, although in the Indonesian context the military and religious factors are also very prominent. It should also be mentioned that according to Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) society determines the individual more than the other way around. If so, Social Change is also caused by the behavior and dynamics of society when individuals are no longer influential and decisive. On the other hand, society is also dealing with a state that is not single. Thus the question arises, how can all these elements become objective conditions that can be explained thoroughly? Based on these two approaches, I try to look at the problem further, accompanied by a method that seems appropriate and scientifically justifiable.

26-31 Ağustos 1922 Tarihleri Arasında 14. Süvari Tümeni’nin Harekâtı

With the occupation of Anatolia by the Greek forces in 1919, the national resistance operation began. When it was understood that there would be no success against the Greek regular army with irregular units in Anatolia, it was decided to switch to the regular army at the Afyonkarahisar Congress on August 2, 1920. On December 26, 1920, the regular army was transferred. The 14th Cavalry Division was in the Central Army in March 1921, and the division headquarters was in the Zara region. The Commander of the 14th Cavalry Division is Lieutenant Colonel Mehmet Suphi. The division was taken from the Central Command in June 1921 and sent to the Western Front Command. The Western Front Command was attached to the 5th Group, which was newly established in mid-July 1921 and was commanded by Colonel Fahrettin Bey. It was active in the Kütahya-Eskişehir Battles and the Sakarya Pitched Battle and consisted of the 3rd, 54th, and 55th Cavalry Regiments. On September 13, 1921, the 5th Cavalry Group was named the 5th Cavalry Corps. The 14th Cavalry Division was under the command of Brigadier General Fahrettin Pasha and was organized from the 3rd, 5th, 34th, and 54th Cavalry Regiments. The 14th Cavalry Division, attached to the 5th Cavalry Corps, took an active role in the Turkish War of Independence by participating in the Great Offensive and Pursuit Operation with its four regiments. The study will be prepared from archive sources, General Staff Publications, research works, journals, and theses.

The Main Stages of Formation and Development of the 24th Military Band of the Joint Strategic Command of the Southern Military District: Traditions and Modernity

The article considers the formation of Russian military musical performance in the regions of the Russian Federation. The history of the development of the 24th Military Band of the Joint Strategic Command of the Southern Military District is the object of study; traditions and innovations in the military band’s activities are the subject. The article aims to reveal the significance of the traditions of military wind bands for the development of national musical culture. The tasks set in the article included the study of scientific literature, revealing the specifics of the military musical art development in Russia, and archival sources from collections of textual and musical (notated) documents related to the history of military music and the band itself. The history of the band was studied using archival sources from the collection of documents of the 24th military band with the documents from the collection collected by A.Golovin - Head and Artistic Director of the band, Honoured Artist of the Russian Federation, Lieutenant Colonel. In the course of the study, documents from the band's collection of notes, including handwritten, printed and electronic scores of the author's arrangements and transcriptions, were analysed. It is noted that even though the music library began to form after 1962, it includes scores made at an earlier time. The authors determine the date and conditions for the formation of the military band of the headquarters of the Southern Military District: the band was turned into an independent unit as the 15th military band of the headquarters of the North Caucasian Military District with a permanent location in Rostov-on-Don on the basis of the military band of the 106th Communications Regiment on August 2, 1962. In 2012, the band became part of the 175 Luninets-Pinsky Southern Military District Command Brigade (military unit 01957) with the Order of Alexander Nevsky and twice the Order of the Red Star. In 2018, the 24th Military Band of the Joint Strategic Command of the Southern Military District was formed on its basis. It is noted that the band has repeatedly become the winner of the All-Army competitions of military bands, and various festivals, demonstrating the highest professionalism and being one of the best creative teams of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Scientific and practical novelty, as well as the relevance of the study, is determined by a new perspective found in the study of the history of the military band. A comprehensive study of documents made it possible to identify continuity in the collective’s activities and innovations related to the modern band’s functionality expansion.

Dappere Russen, wrede Chinezen en beate missionarissen

Brave Russians, cruel Chinese and pious missionaries. Yulij Lukyanovich Yelets and the phenomenon of illustrated lectures in the Belgian belle époque This contribution sheds light on the rhetorical use of the projection lantern in the Belgian public lecture circuit at the turn of the twentieth century by means of a microstoria. By analysing a lantern lecture delivered by the Russian writer and lieutenant colonel Yulij Lukyanovich Yelets (1862-1932), presented to the Royal Geographical Society of Antwerp (KAGA) on 9 October 1903, we question how Yelets’ public performance was rhetorically constructed through word and lantern images. Through an in-depth exploration of the social and intellectual biography of Yelets, insight is gained into how lecturers and organisations found each other in the Belgian belle époque, and what the underlying reasons for lantern performances like these might have been. The content of Yelets’ lecture concerned a topic that strongly touched on much more widely spread sentiments and sensitivities in Belgian society at the time, namely the Chinese Boxer Rebellion (1899-1901) and the related ‘yellow peril’. It will be argued that public illustrated lectures fulfilled an important social role in the communication of new ideas, knowledge, or, in the case of Yelets, popular geopolitical ideas and stereotypes. Public lectures were seldom at the basis of these popular or (scientific) ideas, but they did contribute, in their own way, to the public opinion surrounding them and to their broader dissemination and communication.

James Silas Calhoun: First Governor of New Mexico Territory and First Indian Agent by Sherry Robinson

Reviewed by: James Silas Calhoun: First Governor of New Mexico Territory and First Indian Agent by Sherry Robinson Jerry Thompson James Silas Calhoun: First Governor of New Mexico Territory and First Indian Agent. By Sherry Robinson. (Albuquerque: University of New Mexico Press, 2021. Pp. 390. Illustrations, notes, bibliography, index, appendix.) After serving eighteen difficult months as the first governor of New Mexico Territory, James Silas Calhoun departed Santa Fe for Washington in May 1852 as crowds from Tesuque, Santa Clara, and Nambé Pueblos saw him off. Suffering from scurvy and unable to stand, the governor rode in a bed in an ambulance in the wagon train of James Hubbell. From St. Louis, he hoped to go on to Washington and then to his home in Georgia. At Fort Union, the post commander, Major James H. Carleton (not John H. Carleton as indicated throughout the text), certain the governor would not reach the states alive, had a wooden coffin made for him. Calhoun died at Hickory Point, thirty-eight miles west of Westport, Missouri, on June 30, 1852. Appointed governor by President Millard Fillmore, Calhoun had taken the oath-of-allegiance on a platform under the portal of Santa Fe's Palace of the Governors. As governor, Calhoun faced daunting problems, seeing as many as fifty visitors a day, making numerous appointments, dealing with the turbulent politics of the territory, and ordering a census. There was not one cent in the territorial treasury, and many of the Indigenous tribal groups in New Mexico were restless and hostile. Although born into poverty in 1799 at Boggy Gut Creek, Georgia, and orphaned at an early age, Calhoun rose to become the mayor of Columbus, Georgia, an able lieutenant colonel of volunteers during the war with Mexico, and American consul in Havana, Cuba, where he learned Spanish. Calhoun arrived in New Mexico as the first Indian agent in 1849 during a turbulent time. "Matters in this territory are in a most deplorable condition—infinitely worse than you possibly can imagine," Calhoun wrote (137). Moreover, the state of Texas was continuing to press claims to all the land east of the Rio Grande, including settlements such as Albuquerque and Santa Fe. In fact, Texas was threatening to send an army of 2,500 men to take eastern New Mexico by force, if necessary. Governor [End Page 271] Peter H. Bell warned he would arrest any military officer who interfered. In Washington, President Zachary Taylor threatened to take command of the U.S. Army in New Mexico and hang Texan interlopers as traitors. Anxious about expansionist Texans, Nuevomexicanos feared they would be "forced into an unnatural and repugnant association with Texas" (165). Robinson disputes historian Howard Lamar's theory that Calhoun, an ardent Whig, created a political machine of sorts in the territory. Not long after arriving in Santa Fe in the late summer of 1849, Calhoun headed west with Lieutenant James Hervey Simpson in an expedition into Navajo country. Although Calhoun possessed great sympathy for the Native Americans, one of the misfortunes during the expedition was the killing and scalping of the six-feet, six-inch Navajo chief Narbona, who was said to be in his eighties and crippled with arthritis. With respect to many of the Native Americans, Calhoun, like many of the citizens and military in the territory, believed in "compulsory enlightenment," even at the point of a bayonet, if necessary (129). Besides the Navajo, the Comanche and Apaches should be "penned up" and made to cultivate the soil, Calhoun argued. Following the misplaced logic of both the Spanish and Mexicans, Calhoun, like many others, thought Native Americans should become good Christians rather than maintain their own beliefs. Calhoun also asked the legislature to pass a law to prohibit free Blacks from the territory. Perceptibly, Calhoun brought on the fury of abolitionists. Robinson points out there were only seventeen free Blacks in the territory at the time, including Jim Beckwourth, who ran the best saloon in Santa Fe. Using numerous quotes from primary and secondary sources, and sixty illustrations, Robinson spins a compelling and entertaining biography of Calhoun that is exceptionally well researched and soundly written. Nothing in Calhoun's life is left...

Warfare and Logistics Along the US-Canadian Border During the War of 1812 by Christopher D. Dishman

Reviewed by: Warfare and Logistics Along the US-Canadian Border During the War of 1812 by Christopher D. Dishman David Curtis Skaggs Christopher D. Dishman. Warfare and Logistics Along the US-Canadian Border During the War of 1812. Lawrence: University Press of Kansas, 2021. Pp. 334. Bibliography. Index. Maps. Notes. Cloth: $39.95. There’s an old military adage that “amateurs talk tactics, professionals talk logistics.” Others invoke the maxim attributed to Erwin Rommel: “Battles are won by the quartermasters.” To the military, logistics is concerned with maintaining supply lines of personnel, equipment, food, weapons, and ammunition from one point to another while disrupting the capabilities of an enemy to do the same thing. The importance of supplying military forces is similarly emphasized in Christopher D. Dishman’s Warfare and Logistics Along the US-Canadian Border During the War of 1812. In the preface, Dishman notes that “Victory for either side often depended on enough men and supplies arriving promptly at a remote outpost or dockyard. This dependence on external supplies meant that military operations in one theater could produce cascading effects hundreds of miles from the battle.” In addition to logistics, he also undertakes the operational and tactical actions of the contending military and naval forces from Lake Champlain to Lake Michigan. No one previously has integrated the logistical and combat aspects of the border warfare in this central region of this war’s military operations as effectively as he. Unfortunately, William S. Dudley’s Inside the US Navy of 1812–1815 (2021), with its supportive conclusions, was unavailable before Dishman’s manuscript went to press. Michiganders will find special interest in the inept American leadership during its failures at Detroit and Frenchtown (now Monroe), as well as the surrender of Fort Michilimackinac (as it was spelled at the time) on Mackinac Island and the failure to retake the post in 1814. Dishman gives a detailed analysis of the combined operations led by General William Henry Harrison and Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry on Lake Erie and southwestern Upper Canada in 1813. Critical to both the operational and logistical aspects of this conflict was the control of Lake Ontario, where both sides failed to implement combined operations decisively and the British were able to escape disaster by the narrowest of margins. As Dishman’s study becomes more involved in the detail of combat in 1814, the depth of logistical discussion declines. He could easily have developed more thoroughly the logistical problems of the Lake Champlain campaign. His description of the expedition of Miller Worsley, for the relief of Fort [End Page 117] Michilimackinac in the fall of 1814 deserves greater depth. Totally ignored is the role played by the British Army, the North West Company’s operatives, and Native Americans who relied on support out of Mackinac Island for operations in the upper Mississippi Valley. Dishman’s disparagement of the militia compared with the regular army fails to contrast the performances of the common militia (mostly conscripts) and the volunteer militia, which sometimes exceeded that of the regulars in battle. Also, he demotes one of my unsung heroes of the war, West Point graduate Eleazer Wood, who was a lieutenant colonel, not a major, before being killed during the 1814 Niagara campaign. Finally, one reason why British negotiators at the Treaty of Ghent agreed to the status quo antebellum was that the Harrison-Perry campaign had resulted in the United States controlling both sides of the Detroit River in the Western District of Upper Canada. Had the treaty been settled on uti possidetis (retaining property held at the war’s end), this would have given the Americans domination of the logistical route to Lake Huron, although the British would have acquired the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and northern Wisconsin. But such trivial criticisms should not disparage the thoroughly researched, engagingly written, insightfully analytical contents of Warfare and Logistics, which should be part of anyone’s collection of important War of 1812 studies. After reading it, you will agree with Dishman’s conclusion: “The war along the US-Canadian frontier was a testament to the importance of logistics when waging war.” David Curtis Skaggs Professor Emeritus of History Bowling Green State...

Developing and Improving Guidelines for the Management of Ammunition in NATO Technical Working Groups : An interview with Lieutenant Colonel György Miklósi

The present publication is an interpretation of a professional discussion between two experts both of whom have decades of experience in the field of ammunition life cycle management. The report discusses the process of developing ammunition life cycle guidelines for NATO.2 It will cover the different working groups, their structures, their working procedures, their relationships and the methodology used to develop ammunition management guidelines. In terms of international relations, the publication briefly discusses the cooperation and communication between the NATO Working Groups on Ammunition and the other UN3 and EU4 Task Forces with similar tasks. The interview was conducted with one of the most knowledgeable experts in this field in Hungary, Lieutenant Colonel György Miklósi, who provides a comprehensive overview of the aforementioned topics and details the tasks to be carried out by the Ministry of Defence and the Hungarian Defence Forces in the development and implementation of new domestic regulations on ammunition handling compatible with NATO guidelines. The interview does not neglect to mention the obstacles and contains valuable insights as a thought provoker or discussion starter.

Afonino coal deposit in the second half of the period from the 1820s through the 1850s

Based on the publications of the Gornyi Zhurnal in 1842–1859, the process of exploration of Afonino coal deposit (Afonino is today Kiselevsk town in Kuzbass) in the second half of the period from the 1820s to the 1850s is considered. The first of the researchers to characterize the deposit on the pages of the Gornyi Zhurnal in 1842 was Mining Engineer Narkiz A. Sokolovsky. Then, the Afonino village was visited by world-famous geologist Pyotr A. Chikhachev in the framework of his large research expedition to Altai. Two years later, Afonino coal was studied by another great scientist Grigory E. Shchurovsky. In the middle of XIX century, another research party visited the Kiselevsk area, led by Mining Engineer Captain Bykov and his assistant, Mining Charter Officer Mikhailov. In 1855, the area of Afonino coal deposit was visited by an outstanding mining specialist, Lieutenant Colonel Alexander G. Boyarshinov. In 1856, Staff Captain Korzhenevsky, like his predecessors, examined coal outcrops in the area of the villages of Afonino and Cherkasovo. Finally, in 1859, P. Lavrov and F. Korovaev, recognizing that “due to the ever-developing industrial activity in Russia, the issue of combustible material is becoming more and more important’ presented the characterization of the country’s coal deposits in tabular form. The coal deposit “on the plateau near the village of Afonino” was worthily ranked in that rating. Thus, not a single of the relevant studies of Altai coal deposits passed off the “remarkable coal deposit of Afonino” as A. G. Boyarshinov said. The research findings were presented on the pages of the worldwide reputed and recognized Gornyi Zhurnal.The study was carried out under the state contract, Project No. 0286-2021-0012.

A Palette for a Prince: The Colours in the Shahnamah for Muhammad Juki

AbstractThe Shahnamah (RAS 239) copied for the Timurid prince, Muhammad Juki (1402–1445) in Herat, has long been considered one of the finest surviving, illustrated Timurid manuscripts. It was presented to the RAS in 1834 by Lieutenant Colonel Doyle (1787–1848), but attracted little scholarly attention until Barbara Brend published her monograph in 2010. The manuscript contains 31 exquisite miniature paintings, two of which (fol. 430v and fol. 531r) were added later during the Mughal period (1526–1761). This article will examine the sumptuous, jewel-like colours employed to depict scenes from the epic and the metals, pigments, and dyes from which they were derived. Precious metals and organic colours made from plants such as indigo and lac extracted from female insects are examined in detail: the methods of their production and extraction, the techniques used for their application, their commercial value, and the prestige they afforded their patrons all contribute to an understanding of what constituted the miniature painters' palette in the Timurid period.

The Stalinist Political Culture of the Second Wave of the Russian Diaspora: A Case Study

This article examines the career of Vladimir Vasil’evich Pozdniakov during the Second World War and the early Cold War. A lieutenant colonel in the Red Army who was arrested during the Great Terror, Pozdniakov was captured on the Eastern front in October 1941. He collaborated with the Germans, first serving as the head of camp police in 1942, then becoming a propagandist in the system of POW camps, and finally serving as a high-ranking officer in the short-lived Russian army under General A. A. Vlasov. He escaped repatriation to the USSR after the war and worked as an intelligence agent in the Gehlen Organization and the CIA while also taking part in anti-communist groups in West Germany. Pozdniakov also acted as an amateur historian of the Vlasov movement. Pozdniakov’s career provides a window on the actions of one individual across the upheavals of war, occupation, and Cold War. Pozdniakov’s actions were shaped by the political culture of the Stalinist 1930s. Like other members of the Soviet party-state and military elite, Pozdniakov was opportunistic, suspicious, and dogmatic – all qualities that were crucial for advancement and mere survival in the Stalinist 1930s. The political culture of the 1930s helps to explain his activities during a time of unprecedented chaos and violence: his willingness to collaborate diligently with the Nazis and then with Germany’s Western conquerors, his constant battles within circles of collaborators and the Russian diaspora, and his hagiographic writing of the history of the Vlasov movement while in postwar exile. Pozdnyakov’s example suggests a new approach to the study of the political culture of the second wave of Russian emigration. Due to the historical context of the formation of the second wave – captivity on the Eastern Front, life and sometimes collaboration during the Nazi occupation and flight from repatriation – its members had no other source of public identity other than the continuing devotion to Vlasov’s semi-fictional Russian liberation army.

Byron Redivivus

Despite no known recent provenance, an engraved copper printing plate of a Byron portrait has been established to be of considerable significance. Proofs from the plate are held by the National Portrait Gallery and the British Museum. New impressions were made for our purposes. The plate was commissioned by Lieutenant Colonel Leicester Stanhope, who accompanied Byron’s body back to England, and was engraved after a miniature painting, which itself has notable associations with Byron.

Congress's Own: A Canadian Regiment, the Continental Army, and American Union by Holly A. Mayer

Reviewed by: Congress's Own: A Canadian Regiment, the Continental Army, and American Union by Holly A. Mayer Friederike Baer (bio) Congress's Own, Canada, American Revolution, Continental Army Congress's Own: A Canadian Regiment, the Continental Army, and American Union. By Holly A. Mayer. (Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 2021. Pp. 408. Cloth, $45.00.) Holly Mayer describes Congress's Own as a "regimental history" that "is a social, institutional, and civil-military analysis of how members of Congress's Own realized the American Revolution in combat and community" (xi). The regiment, she argues in this insightful and original book, "exemplified the military borderland that was the Continental Army and the imagined community of the nation declared to be the United States of America" (3). Mayer employs innovative applications of community and [End Page 283] borderland studies methodologies to make a case for this Canadian regiment as a microcosm of the Continental Army and the new American nation. The book begins with a discussion of key events in Canada in the years 1774 and 1775, including Patriot efforts to bring the Canadians over to their side through political and ideological persuasion and, ultimately, military coercion. In the beginning of 1776, the American Patriots created two Canadian regiments. While the vast majority of Continental Army regiments were tied to a state or states for recruiting and support purposes, these Canadian military units were authorized by Congress to recruit throughout the states in addition to Canada. Soon, the 2nd Regiment, also known as the Canadian Old Regiment, became a kind of multicultural experiment that brought together men from eleven states in addition to Canada. In early 1777, it adapted the nickname Congress's Own, in part to spur recruitment but also to signify its civic allegiance to Congress and, with that, its uniqueness. It remained in service until its disbandment at West Point in November 1783. In her previous book, Belonging to the Army: Camp Followers and Community During the American Revolution (Columbia, SC, 1996), Mayer studied the army primarily as a social organization that depended, to a significant extent, on the contributions of thousands of family members, servants, sutlers, and other associated individuals who did not actively and directly participate in combat. Although Congress's Own pays some attention to the wives and children of officers and privates that were attached to the regiment, it is primarily concerned with the experiences of the roughly 1,900 soldiers that belonged to this community at one time or another over the course of the war. Mayer conducted painstaking archival research to identify the members of the regiment, and she introduces readers to a number of them. Among them are Lieutenant Colonel Edward Antill, a native of New Jersey who had settled in Quebec, and Sergeant Major John H. Hawkins, who hailed from the Philadelphia area and was the author of a journal that first piqued Mayer's interest in the regiment's history. The book's main character is Moses Hazen, the regiment's leader for the duration of the war. Born in Massachusetts in 1733, he settled in Montreal in 1763 after serving in a colonial unit during the Seven Years' War. By the time of the American Revolution, Hazen had accumulated land holdings in Quebec and northern New England. He was initially conflicted about siding with the Americans, in part because of his ties to the British military but also because joining the American rebellion meant risk of losing property [End Page 284] in Canada. However, in early 1776, he seized the opportunity not only to join the Americans but also to assume command of the newly commissioned 2nd Canadian Regiment. Seigneur Hazen turned out to be a "dynamic combat commander but flawed manager" (211). Mayer details the regiment's movements and military operations throughout its history, including its participation in Sullivan's attack on British posts on Staten Island, as well as the battles of Trenton, Brandywine, Germantown, and Yorktown. She also examines operations that are less well known, such as the regiment's 1779 expedition into Coos Country, a region that included Vermont and New Hampshire. Over the course of several months, Hazen's regiment gathered intelligence, built...

Haus Liebe brothel: ethical decision-making in a foreign culture

Theoretical basis The authors believe the theoretical foundations for this case study lie in the following two disciplines, primarily, but could be expanded to religion and organizational culture:i. Ethical decision-makingii. Cross-cultural competenceiii. Leadership Research methodology This is an actual case, and the fact pattern and timeline occurred as depicted. The first author is the protagonist, Lieutenant Colonel (LTC) Shawn Browning. The names of case characters have been disguised. The second and third authors are colleagues of the first author. This case was tested in three undergraduate organizational behavior and leadership classes at the United States Military Academy at West Point. Case overview/synopsis This disguised case follows US Army Officer LTC Shawn Browning, leader of a prominent US Army base located in Germany. As the commander of US Army Garrison Schweinfurt, LTC Browning was responsible for the health and welfare of 10,000 residents, including soldiers, family members and civilian employees. A community member lodged a complaint against a brothel named Haus One (a legal establishment under German law) located adjacent to the base and near family housing and the base elementary school. LTC Browning had the authority to render the brothel off-limits to US personnel, and he took the necessary steps prior to rendering a decision, including the appointment of a review board to investigate the situation and provide a recommendation. The board recommended not placing Haus One off-limits. The case focuses on LTC Browning’s values and his desire to ensure the welfare of his community while adhering to local legal and cultural norms. Cross-cultural and ethical issues surface throughout the case, which concludes with LTC Browning’s pondering of how to make a final decision. Complexity academic level The authors believe this is targeted at undergraduate students with some background in ethical decision-making, organizational culture and cross-cultural competence.

The special law enforcement aspects of the city of loyalty and freedom

Sopron was characterized by mystery and seclusion for decades before the regime change. We dare to say that the last thirty years have proved that Sopron is one of the most hospitable and friendly cities in Hungary. Anyone whose face is caressed just once by the Sopron breeze and who hears the city’s bells ringing in his ears will forever have engraved in his heart and soul the love for the city with which s/he pledges eternal loyalty to Sopron. Sopron is the western gateway to our country, the guarding and protection of this “gate” has posed extraordinary challenges to our predecessors working in law enforcement and does so with today’s professionals. “Civitas Fidelissima” - the most loyal city. In memory of the 1921 referendum, the country donated this everlasting epithet to the city of Sopron. The security of the city of loyalty and freedom can be ensured in the same way with loyalty, expertise, and devotion. Dr. Valér Dános, editor-in-chief, and Dr. Csaba Szabó, managing editor, talked about the special law enforcement aspects of the city of loyalty and freedom, the challenges of the present and future plans with Dr. Zoltán Herczeg, pol. lieutenant colonel, head of the Sopron Police Department.

Юридико-психологический анализ особенностей взаимодействия с гражданами сотрудников органов внутренних дел в условиях провокационного поведения

In a media-dominated society, all organizations have certain reputational risks. In recent years, the public image of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation has been largely determined by the Internet environment. On the one hand, favorable images are created in it, on the other, the exposure of abuse and illegal actions. As a rule, the latter, on the basis of the action of the regularities of the formation of a conditioned reflex and the emergence of emotions and feelings, have a greater impact on the public. The authors note that the effectiveness of external communication of employees of internal affairs bodies is interconnected with its positioning in society, which ensures a positive or negative emotional attitude towards the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia on the part of others. In this regard, interaction with citizens in legal situations is an image-forming component.
 The article analyzes the acute conflict situation of interaction between an employee of the internal affairs bodies with citizens, which is posted on the video hosting You Tube (channel of the public project "Movement") in the form of videos about citizens visiting the Reception of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia ("Kneeling in front of the lieutenant colonel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia! Sercons continued", " Serkons Bought the Police? Bloggers At the Reception of the Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs "). The main methods of psychological influence are highlighted, which made it possible to destabilize this situation, the regulatory legal framework is analyzed, which can be used by police officers in an acute crisis situation and in the process of performing operational and service actions.
