Abstract:
In his review, Professor A.V. Trofimov gives a detailed picture of a new study by the young historian D. Shunyakov, dedicated to the award system of the USSR during the Great Patriotic War. The difference between this monograph and many of the works written earlier is emphasized. Firstly, this is the first comprehensive study, where award production is considered, as a system aimed at initiating the soldiers and commanders of the Red Army, as well as civilians, to achieve a speedy victory over the enemy. Secondly. The work provides a complete picture of all types of awards from government awards, banners, signs, etc. to monetary and material incentives for those who have distinguished themselves. And, thirdly, a description of the stages of development and improvement of this system for the entire period of the war is given.
