Abstract
During the first half of the 1920s, with the processes of searching for forms of the national-state structure of the mountain peoples, the mechanisms for their administrative-territorial control were developed. The solutions to these issues were interrelated and interdependent. The policy of the Soviet state was based on the principle of economic gravity of territories and the economic unity of the North Caucasus. At the same time, the regional systems of administrative-territorial administration became a crucial instrument for the national policy of the Soviet government. An effective system was designed that integrated the federal, local, and regional levels of government and management. In this regard, the administration of national autonomies, the South-Eastern region was created, and then the North Caucasus Territory, where a new trend associated with the consolidation of the administrative and political elite of national autonomies occurred. During that time, the regional systems of administrative-territorial direction became a crucial instrument of the national policy of the Soviet government. In general, an effective system was designed that integrated the federal, regional levels of government and management. It lies in the need to ease territorial conflicts between the mountain peoples and to strengthen the political and economic foundations of national autonomies. The regional systems of administrative-territorial administration became an important instrument of the national policy of the Soviet government. An effective system was designed that integrated the federal, regional and local levels of government and management.
