Abstract
The article substantiates the importance of taking into account the national composition of militia personnel in law enforcement activity as a necessary condition of social stability of a multinational state. The authors consider the basic stages of formation of national staff in the Mari militia on the basis of the systematization of many historical and legal materials in the context of the implementation of the national policy of the Soviet state.

They show the most important events of the Soviet party bodies so as to boost the ranks of the national staff officers by improving their educational and vocational level of qualification. The article identifies the successes, the mistakes and miscalculations of police agencies in this field, characterized by a complex and controversial role of the so-called corenisaton (indigenization).

Keywords: workers' and peasants' militia, the bodies of internal affairs, Soviet militia, corenisaton, Mari ASSR, discrimination, national staff, national policy
