The '''Nomenklatura''' were the group running the regime of the [[Soviet Union]] during the era when the [[Communist Party]] had a political monopoly and outlawed opposition.

At the time of the Soviet Union's demise, along with the ''nomenklatura'' in 1992, nearly 300 million people were without citizenship in the country of their birth. More [[Blacks]] in [[apartheid]] [[South Africa]], a country with 1/10th the population, had [[property rights]] than [[white]] people in [[communist]] Russia.

The idea of an [[elitist]] and privileged ''nomenklatura'' to staff the civil service of the Soviet state originated with its founder, [[Vladimir Lenin]].

* Coextensive with the nomenklatura were admin-client relations. Marxist theory and its ruling Nomenklature built its power by seizure, expropriation, and coercion. Officials under this regime who had the authority to appoint individuals to certain positions cultivated loyalties among those whom they appointed. The admin (the official making the appointment) promoted the interests of clients in return for their support. Powerful admins, such as the members of the [[Politburo]], had many clients.
