Implementation of the principle of equality before the law in the norms of the Correctional Labor Code of 1933
The object of the article is the principle of equality before the law in the Correctional Labor Code of 1933. The subject is the provisions of the correctional labor legislation, which reflected the essence of the principle under study. As a methodological basis of knowledge, the following methods were used: the method of analysis, the comparative legal method, and the historical method. With the help of the presented methodology, a comparative analysis of the legislative consolidation of the content of the principle of equality of convicts in the norms of the TIC of 1933 is carried out. It is concluded that this principle in its "pure" form was not only not enshrined in the specific rules governing the execution and serving of deprivation of liberty, but also did not manifest itself in the provisions regulating the legal status of persons deprived of liberty.
