War and Thieves in Law: The History of Soviet Organized Crime during the Great Patriotic War

Every time the whole society declares war on bandits and thieves, we admit that we live in a criminal state. It is sad, but it is a fact. We live where we live, and we do it as best we can. We live by the laws that we create and break ourselves. We live in Russia, where a bandit is more than a bandit, and a thief is a “law-abiding” one. This is part of our history, and it does not matter that it is criminal. The main thing is that it is a story in which there is a main character, a man with a weapon in his hands, capable of action. This hero is ready to kill and die at the same time. And most importantly, he knows what for. After all, he is at war. At a war in which principles or money decide everything. The fewer principles, the more money.

A war of money or a war of principles... This is the exact definition of any criminal war, a war that no one is ever in a hurry to declare, an undeclared war.
