摘要：The article describes the German military and civil advocacy on Krasnodar territory during the German occupation in 1942-1943. Pre-war events that have created fertile ground for the effective impact of propaganda are in focus. Documents of Central and regional Russian archives were used as materials for this article. The documents, stored in Fund № 69 (partisan movement headquarters) of the Russian State archive of socio-political history are essential for representing military German propaganda. The major part of the documents related to the civil advocacy is deposited in Fund Р-493 (Eysk City Council) of the Krasnodar region State archive. In conclusion, the authors note that propaganda is the most effective, when applied to the “fertile soil”. During the pre-war period, on the territory of Krasnodar region all conditions have been met for cooperation with the enemy to manifest itself en masse and in all its’ diversity: military and civilian.
