 secret police. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001
Many states, including Chile, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Romania, and South Africa, have used secret police to control internal dissent; the former East Germany’s much feared Stasi (State Security Ministry) controlled every aspect of life, including the postal service and communications industry.
Under National Socialism, Germany became a police state, a state where the power of the police, and especially the secret police, over security and justice was tyrannically applied with virtually no procedural checks.
Some argue that secret police forces have always been primarily concerned with the security of the state and that they are invariably created by governmental action, but this is not the case.
