Stalin's 5 year plans
question: explain to what extent Stalin was able to transform the Soviet Union into an
economic superpower.
paragraph 1(Intro):
Joseph Stalin was able to turn the Soviet Union into an economic superpower
because of his implementation of the three, five year plans. These included the
collectivization of agriculture and the industrialization of industries.
Paragraph 2(background):
After Vladimir Lenin’s death, he had successfully brought communism into Russia
and had formulated the New Economic Policy (NEP). At this time the NEP was
unfinished and Stalin thought that it would be a great time to introduce his new five
year plans, because of his hate towards the capitalistic ideas that the NEP imposed.
Stalin wanted to make the Soviet Union a powerful military and industrialized state,
and further the communist idea. In order for Stalin to do this he needed to feed
workers, produce raw materials for factories, and sell abroad, so he could pay for
new machines and technologies. Stalin had asked the Gosplan, which was a planning
committee, to formulate a plan to increase heavy industry, agriculture and meet the
needs required to achieve an industrialized state. Thus creating the first five year
plan, and start of the transformation of the Soviet Union.
Paragraph 3(1st five year plan):
In Stalin’s first five year plan from 1928 to 1932, he introduced collectivization or
Kolkhoz’s. He thought that it would be more effective because then the modern
farming methods could be implied on a larger scale and the state could provide the
Kolkhoz’s with tractors. Stalin wanted industrialization and would do anything to get
there, this is why he introduced, forced labour, targets to scare the people with death
if they did not reach these targets and used huge amounts of propaganda to gain
support. The peasants, known as Kulaks, were also forcibly removed, or killed for
their land, to form the end of private farming and the start of nationalization of
collectivization and industrialization 1
