Anti-Bolshevik Governments of South Russia, 1918–1920

The Special Council

The initiative to form a consultative body to advise the leader of the Volunteer Army was taken by V. V. Shul′gin in the summer of 1918, when he convinced General Alekseev to form a council to take care of governmental affairs in the conquered territories. N. N. L′vov also took part in this initiative. Initially nothing was done, but Shul′gin returned to the project at the beginning of August 1918 in collaboration with General Dragomirov. Consequently, on August 18, General Alekseev issued an order with a supplement (prilozhenie), dated 20 August, entitled “A Proclamation on the Special Council attached to Supreme Leader of the Volunteer Army” (Polozhenie ob Osobom soveshanii pri verkhovnom rukovoditele Dobrovolcheskoi armii), in which the aims of the council were described and a number of departments (11 in total) were elaborated. In this initial manifestation the Special Council consisted of the following:

Chairman: Adjutant General M. V. Alekseev

Deputies: 1st: Lieutenant-General A. I. Denikin; 2nd: Lieutenant-General A. M. Dragomirov; 3rd: Lieutenant-General A. S. Lukomskii

These figures were described as permanent members of the Special Council, together with Lieutenant-General I. P. Romanovskii and the directors (upravliaiushchie) of the 11 departments (otdely) of the Council.
