The military terminology in Soviet constitutions
The author examines the impact of military language in the Constitutions of the Soviet Union, and shows how this particular terminology, which derives directly from the military structure of the party, even extends to the language of politics and the world of production. The Soviet Union has carried out a process of militarizing society with one aim in mind: to transform the conscience of man and society. This process is directly reflected in the language, and the use of military terminology, in both the technical and metaphorical senses, reinforces Bolshevism’s propagandistic content and expresses at the same time the aggressive nature of this worldview. Military language, understood as a tool for mobilizing the masses, ultimately becomes a tool for enslaving the population.
