This 1991 book makes an important contribution to the evaluation of
the origins of Stalinism. Although it is widely acknowledged by
Western scholars that the Soviet grain crisis of 1927-8 and
Stalin's Siberian tour of January 1928 were crucial factors in the
decision to abandon the New Economic Policy (NEP) and return to a
more ideologically rigid policy of collectivisation and rapid
industrialisation, studies have hitherto concentrated on the role
of leading personalities and 'high politics'. In this book, Dr
James Hughes presents an in depth examination of the crisis of the
NEP from the regional perspective of Siberia and analyses the
events and pressures 'from below', at the grassroots level of
Soviet society. Using publications of the Siberian party and
statistical investigations of the countryside, Dr Hughes offers
insights into several largely uncharted features of the Soviet
system in these years.
