| description | A clandestine network that connected the revolutionary community, the Soviet economic structure, the Communist party and the right hand of the Party, the Cheka, may have been responsible for social mobility of a corrupt group. More importantly, this partnership of «dirty» partners was also responsible to protect one another, achieving perpetuate a system of corruption for a long time. There is no doubt that this random selection of records could serve only as an example of a situation and not as a definitive picture regarding the economic, political or social aspects these associations played in Soviet society, government and industry at the time. However, taking into consideration the fact that this study included only four out of more than a thousand files available in the archive of the League of former political prisoners, it is difficult to imagine that the phenomenon of corruption could be explained, like the tricks of a few people in their desire to survive the subhuman conditions unleashed because of the Russian Revolution. |

Social Sciences A clandestine network that connected the revolutionary community, the Soviet economic structure, the Communist party and the right hand of the Party, the Cheka, may have been responsible for social mobility of a corrupt group. More importantly, this partnership of «dirty» partners was also responsible to protect one another, achieving perpetuate a system of corruption for a long time. There is no doubt that this random selection of records could serve only as an example of a situation and not as a definitive picture regarding the economic, political or social aspects these associations played in Soviet society, government and industry at the time. However, taking into consideration the fact that this study included only four out of more than a thousand files available in the archive of the League of former political prisoners, it is difficult to imagine that the phenomenon of corruption could be explained, like the tricks of a few people in their desire to survive the subhuman conditions unleashed because of the Russian Revolution. Una red clandestina que conectaba a la comunidad revolucionaria, la estructura económica soviética, el Partido Comunista y la mano derecha del Partido, la Cheka, puede haber sido responsable de la movilidad social de un grupo corrupto. Más importante aún, esta misma asociación de socios «sucios» también era responsable de protegerse entre sí, logrando perpetuar un sistema de corrupción por largo tiempo. No hay duda, que esta selección azarosa de expedientes podría servir solo como un ejemplo de una situación y no comoun panorama definitivo en cuanto al papel económico, político o social que este tipo de asociaciones jugaron en la sociedad, el gobierno y la industria soviética de la época. No obstante, tomando en consideración el hecho que este estudio incluye solo cuatro de más de mil fichas disponibles en el archivode la Sociedad de antiguos prisioneros políticos, resulta difícil imaginar que el fenómeno de la corrupción pudiera explicarse, como las artimañas de unos pocos en su afán de sobrevivir las condiciones infrahumanas desatadas por la Revolución Rusa.
