Аннотации:
The study of censorship activity is relevant because today politics is filled with technologies,
but the techniques and methods for creating the desired image were developed and widely used back in 1917 in connection with the events of World War I and the situation of dual power and the political crisis in Russia. These means were instruments of waging war and achieving power. It was concluded that military censorship in 1917 was unable to counter disinformation, and in responding to challenges it lagged behind the rapidly changing situation. The understanding of the deployment of Bolshevik propaganda as a threat by both the Provisional Government and the Soviets was belated.
