The book explores the evolution of the Soviet Bar amidst fluctuating attitudes towards law, highlighting a struggle between legal nihilism and a revival of legal principles. It delves into the internal conflicts within the Bolshevik party regarding the lawyer's role in a socialist society and the profession's resistance to Soviet authority, driven by a desire to maintain autonomy. The narrative culminates in the Bar's eventual integration into the Soviet system by the late 1930s, reflecting the complexities of legal identity under a totalitarian regime.
