In the article, we analyze the measures that the lawenforcement
authorities of the Soviet Russia and the
USSR undertook against the process of bringing the
criminal income into the economy of the country and
using it for the destabilization of the economy and
supporting criminal activities. This work reveals the
true essence of criminal funds and the degree of its
danger to the state and society. The author suggests
that the present-day crisis in the state and political
order is, largely, related to the criminogenic
component of the country development, i.e. the
criminal revolution in Russia in the mid 90-s of the
XX century. The criminality has always been a serious
problem for the society, but only in some countries it
reached the level when it became a threat to national
security. The factor contributing to such situation is, in
the first place, the lack of action on the part of the
society and the state. This allows the criminality to
penetrate in all social and public institutes and create
the political and economic chaos. For obvious reasons,
such social context results in the dissolution of the
state and the formation of smaller state structures, the
introduction of external control, the loss of sovereignty
and the annexation of its territories by more powerful
states
In the article, we analyze the measures that the lawenforcement
authorities of Tsarist Russia undertook
against the process of bringing the criminal income
into the economy of the country and using it for the
extremist and terrorist activities. The fact that the
amount of illegal incomes in Russia in the late XIX
century and the beginning of the XX century increased
massively, and these incomes were used in the social
and political life in quite a peculiar way, confirms the
idea that in the democratizing society undergoing a
number of social reforms many political organizations
recourse to searching for and forming illegal sources
of financial incomes and further money laundering to
support their activities. The increase in crime,
especially in the economic sphere, strains social
relations, instigates different organizations and
movements struggling for power to receive financing
from criminal sources. In their turn, the organizations
and movements use the criminal incomes for the
political struggle, masking it behind noble causes.
Criminal associations arising against the national
backdrop manipulate the political, cross-national and
other kinds of contradictions, existing in international
and interstate relations. With the aim of laundering the
“shadow” funds and in defiance of the national
interests, they use the services of foreign banks and
special agencies of antagonistic countries
