The Economic Transformation of the Soviet Union, 19131945 by R W Davies

The Economic Transformation of the Soviet Union, 19131945 by R W Davies

This book is an ideal text for students studying a key period of Soviet economic history. It brings together and makes available in textbook form the results of the latest research on Soviet industrialisation, using a vast amount of primary evidence, and the methods of quantitative economic analysis. Leading scholars in the field analyse the Soviet economy sector by sector, from agriculture to defence and technology, and look at the key indicators of economic health over the period: employment, national income, exports, and population trends. The book concludes with two chapters comparing the Russian economy at war under tsarism and communism.

'This book can be warmly recommended to all institutions which organise courses on Soviet economic history or comparative politics' Tauno Tiusanen, Europe-Asia Studies
