Note"Nearly sixty years after the end of the Great Fatherland War, the collaboration of Soviet citizens with the German invaders continues to ignite controversy. This is especially true with regard to the large numbers of Soviet soldiers who fought against their own side after being captured. This article examines Georgii Vladimov's attempt to analyse the problem through the fictional General Kobrisov in the Booker Prize-winning novel The General and His Army (1994). Vladimov suggests that notions of treachery are conceptually and morally inadequate as explanations of the large-scale defections to the German enemy. The appropriate conceptual framework, argues Vladimov, is civil war."
