Collectivization of agriculture is an essential feature of the
Communist program for the satellite countries of Eastern Europe. It
is a means of extending state control of agriculture as well as the
basis for developing large-scale industrial and military power.
Irwin T. Sanders has edited this excellent group of papers by
specialists on Eastern Europe and American rural social scientists,
which collectively serve as an analysis of efforts to regiment the
East European peasant. To those for whom the terms "collective
farm" and "collectivization" have little meaning, this book will
provide an actual picture of Communist effort to organize millions
of peasants into a standard pattern of production and control. Such
regimentation, these writers show, has led to less efficient
agriculture from the standpoint of total production although it
facilitates the delivery of produce to state economic enterprises.
