This book examines the history of reforms and major state
interventions affecting Russian agriculture: the abolition of
serfdom in 1861, the Stolypin reforms, the NEP, the
Collectivization, Khrushchev reforms, and finally farm enterprise
privatization in the early 1990s. It shows a pattern emerging from
a political imperative in imperial, Soviet, and post-Soviet
regimes, and it describes how these reforms were justified in the
name of the national interest during severe crises - rapid
inflation, military defeat, mass strikes, rural unrest, and/or
political turmoil. It looks at the consequences of adversity in the
economic environment for rural behavior after reform and at
long-run trends. It has chapters on property rights, rural
organization, and technological change. It provides a new database
for measuring agricultural productivity from 1861 to 1913 and
updates these estimates to the present. This book is a study of the
policies aimed at reorganizing rural production and their
effectiveness in transforming institutions.
