Why was Russia not affected by the Great Depression?

History
1 answer:
TEA [102]3 years ago
7 0

During the Five Year Plans Stalin created an almost pure command economy. If he needed food, he requisitioned it. If that didn't work, he had the country-side searched for private stocks which he confiscated, having first killed its owners. If he wanted to build a factory in the Urals, he sent people there to build it using food and materials he had requisitioned elsewhere. He killed maybe 15 million people he thought were opposing his policies. He also inspired workers very effectively, convincing them that they were building a new type of civilization, and were in fact becoming a new and better type of human being. He was helped in this endeavor by the fact that the entire rest of the world was manifestly against the Soviet experiment and wanted it to fail. The workers believed their lives depended on rapid industrialization, and given the rise of fascism, and their leaders murderous resolve, they were right.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

- The South would destroy the nation, but the  North had to fight for the nation to survive.

Explanation:

The 16th U.S. president Abraham Lincoln's second inaugural address in 1865 primarily aims to recapitulate the cause of war and the destruction brought by it was the consequence of 'divine retribution' towards pursuing a sin like slavery.

In the given quotation, he expresses the idea of 'South bringing destruction to the nation' as they not only possessed slavery but rather showed a retribution towards it which was the key cause of Civil War and now, the North had been fighting for the survival of the nation from this war.' Thus, he concludes by hoping to 'strive to..bind up these wounds.'
