| | Matonyte, Irmina: Elites in Soviet and post-Soviet societies |
 | | Nomenklatura was a list, nominative and confidential, of framework positions, from the top to bottom, of the social and political life, as the highest Party authorities established them. | | | Nomenklatura in Lithuania experienced the least dramatic changes, since it for majority consisted of "politically correct" Lithuanians. | | | In late 70's- early 80's around one third (30.7 percent in Estonia, 32.1 percent in Lithuania and 30.5 percent in Latvia) of middle range nomenklatura positions were for more than 10 years filled with physically the same individuals |

| | Nomenklatura refers to the party's power over appointment and dismissals in the government, the courts, educational and research facilities, religious organizations, hospitals, museums, and so on. | | | Lieberthal says that after 1984 nomenklatura was simplified from a "two rank down" to a "one rank down" system that retained the Central Committee's power to appoint heads of ministries and provinces, while ceding them, or their organization department, appointment power at all lower ranks within their territories. | | | Personnel departments within units usually are staffed with party officials, which gives the party great control over most positions outside the nomenklatura system. |

| | The new nomenklatura, like the old, makes the state's most important political decisions in the corridors or in secret, while votes taken in the legislature are mostly of the rubber-stamp variety that merely register previously made decisions. | | | This way of organizing public decision making is disastrously ineffective, as the example of the country's economic policy amply demonstrates. | | | Recent political transformations, in effect, bespeak a move in the country toward a form of "nomenklatura democracy." It is democracy in a restricted sense, only for a narrow clutch of individuals who hold various key political, bureaucratic, and economic positions. |

| | The Stalinist purges of high party echelons relied on this fundamental betrayal: the accused were effectively guilty insofar as they, as members of the new nomenklatura, betrayed the revolution. | | | Thus in 1933 and 1935 Stalin and the Politburo united with all levels of the nomenklatura elite to screen, or purge, a helpless rank and file. | | | Since the upper nomenklatura at the same time retained its executive power also in the purges themselves, this set in motion a self-destructive vicious cycle in which virtually everyone was threatened--of 82 district party secretaries, 79 were shot. |
