Ispolkom

Ispolkom (Russian: исполком, исполнительный комитет), literally executive committee was an executive elected collegial organ at various stages of the history of Russia and Soviet Union.

[1] Of early note were ispolkoms of the Russian Provisional Government in various regions of the Russian Empire after the February Revolution of 1917 and the Petrograd Soviet Ispolkom instrumental in the subsequent October Revolution of 1917.

The Central Executive Committee of the Soviet Union was the ispolkom of the highest level.

Ispolkoms existed in Russia in the first years after the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

Ispolkoms (Belarusian: выканкам, romanized: vykankom) continue to exist in Belarus as organs of local self-government.
