Cadre management in the Soviet Union
Stalin's slogan "Cadres decide everything!"[1]
In modern Russian language, the word "cadre" is synonymous with the term
Communist Party, and the management of the cadre of the Party itself. Over time this evolved into the system of nomenklatura.[3]
Cadre of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union
Over time, the cadre of the Russian Communist Party and the Communist Party of the Soviet Union were managed by special departments: Uchraspred of the Central Committee of the Russian Communist Party (1919-1924), Orgraspred, Orgburo, and Sekretariat.
Bureaucracy in other spheres
During the initial period of the formation of the Soviet State, the governmental bureaucracy was not predominantly
dictature of the proletariat, only 2.4% of the staff of central state agencies were former workers in 1922.[4]
