At this time, not only the construction of the economy and the state was in full swing in the USSR, but the political struggle was also heating up, high-profile political trials were taking place. Were the defendants at these trials innocent, or did they really resist the Stalinist course, were they preparing to turn the helm of the country at an opportunity? What is the essence of the differences that have made the creators and defenders of the revolution irreconcilable enemies? What did Stalin think about his opponents? What was the logic of the struggle in the party and around it in those years? The author reflects on these and other questions.
