Party-political work in the evachospitals of Mordovia in the first years of the Great Patriotic War

The article examines political and ideological activities in evacuation hospitals in the early years of the war on the territory of the Mordovian ASSR. This aspect of the multifaceted work of political agitators and political departments requires further study, as it remains insufficiently explored at the regional level. Particular attention is given to issues of party-political work among wounded Red Army soldiers and the forms and themes of disseminating key decisions of the country's leadership within the republic’s evacuation hospitals. The directives issued by the Main Political Directorate of the Red Army during the war period obligated both regular political workers and freelance agitators to adhere to the recommendations of the political department strictly.
