- This monograph is the first examination of demobilization and post-war readaptation of Red Army veterans in Leningrad and its environs in any language. It makes an important contribution to the history of late Stalinist society, and thanks to its comparative framework the wider scholarship of veterans’ civilian reintegration. It breaks new ground in its analysis of Soviet war trauma, and busts multiple myths about the successful reintegration of veterans in a devastated and traumatized city. It is based on eight years of original archival research in nine archives in Moscow, St. Peterburg, and Vyborg, drawing on previously unexplored documents.
