Through much of its existence, there were extensive Soviet extrajudicial detention processes, or detention as the result of show trials with only a passing relationship to generally accepted juricial norms. Particular periods, such as the Great Terror or Stalinist purges of the 1930s, have peaks, but prison camp, not always as a result of formal trial, go far back into pre-Soviet Russian history.
Some of the more recent extrajudicial domestic detentions were under the rubric of punitive psychiatry, or the medicalization of dissent.
