On June 6, 1945, a Soviet military administration (SWAG) was created on the territory of the defeated Nazi Germany occupied by the troops of the USSR. Tens of thousands of ordinary Soviet people who came to serve in this organization took up a business that they had never been prepared for, and saw someone else"s world that they never expected to see. Employees of the SWAG, their children and households existed in a special society - “little USSR”, the miniature embodiment of Soviet laws, customs, foundations and prejudices. The book of Vladimir and Marina Kozlovs is the first monograph on the social history of this community, which ended up in the very center of post -war Europe. The authors consider the occupation of Germany as a unique experiment that gave rise to a violent reaction of the mass “Stalinist man” to abroad. During this experiment, the Stalinist regime showed himself, exposed his supporting constructions and specific features, demonstrated to Europe a variety of human types formed by him. The monograph is based on a huge complex of SWAG documents, most of which are first introduced into scientific circulation. Vladimir Alexandrovich Kozlov is a candidate of historical sciences, an independent researcher. Marina Evgenievna Kozlova is a journalist, historian
