Despite its profound, long-term socio-political implications, the
collectivization of agriculture in Eastern Europe after the Second
World War has remained a relatively under-researched field. In
order to understand the post-communist transformation of Eastern
European societies, scholars need to pay attention to the status
and evolution of the peasantry and to employ a historical
perspective, by exploring the communist agricultural policies and
their enduring economic and social implications. To contribute to
this analytical effort, the volume explores the inter-related
campaigns of collectivization of the agriculture in USSR in the
interwar and post-war periods and in the communist dictatorships
established in the Soviet-dominated Eastern Europe after World War
II. Although the contributors to this volume focus on various case
studies, they address a unitary set of analytical issues, relating
to: 1) the Soviet "model" and its emulation in Eastern Europe; 2)
spatial differences in the collectivization campaigns, particularly
with regard to the relationship between centre and peripheral
regions; 3) the dynamics of collectivization in rural societies;
and 4) types of collectivization and socialist agricultural
systems.
