Islamov, D.V. Organizational and legal bases of the activities of the law-enforcement bodies of the Southern Urals in the late XVIII — early XIX centuries

Abstract: This article is devoted to the problem of re-organization of the police in late XVIII — early XIX centuries, having to do with the growth of the peasant movements in Russia. One of the key steps of the reform was the Police Ustav, which was signed by Catherine the II-nd. The higher power bodies made the decision of forming the chief of police positions in provinces, city provosts in the cities. Accordingly the staff of city police institutions were formed. This reform allowed to support legal order, and to better fight crime in the state.
