The paper analyses activity of the Genghisid rulers
of the 13th—14th century related to protection of law
and order in cities and rural settlements. The evolution of law enforcement
institutions in the Mongol Empire and its uluses is observed. The special
attention is paid to the combination of imperial and regional principles and
institutions in the organization of law enforcement structures. The article provides
the first Russian translation of a jarlig on the appointment of ispahsalar,
the high official who was in charge of law and order protection in Mongol
Iran; the account was extracted from ‘Dastur al-katib’, the treatise written
in the 1360s by Muhammad b. Hindushah Nakhchivani, an official of the
Hulaguids and the Jalayirids. There have been similar trends in the Genghisid
states of the 13th—14th century in the area of law
enforcement such as sophistication of institutions, involving of local peoples
in law enforcement activity, as well as substantial influence of earlier
traditions of countries and regions which were under power of the Genghisids. |
