This book examines the Soviet agricultural crisis of 1931-1933
which culminated in the major famine of 1933. It is the first
volume in English to make extensive use of Russian and Ukrainian
central and local archives to assess the extent and causes of the
famine. It reaches new conclusions on how far the famine was
'organized' or 'artificial', and compares it with other Russian and
Soviet famines and with major twentieth century famines elsewhere.
Against this background, it discusses the emergence of collective
farming as an economic and social system.
