Answer:

War Communism is the name given to the economic system that existed in Russia from 1918 to 1921 and was introduced by Lenin to combat the economic problems brought on by the civil war in Russia.

A majority in the Bolshevik hierarchy thought that it would be a good idea to remove factory managers and let the workers take it upon themselves to run the factories on behalf of the people.

The people were divided into four categories: workers who performed hard, demanding labour, manual workers in harmful trades, workers in light tasks, which included housewives and professional people.

In addition, the Bolshevik hierarchy could blame a lot of Russia’s troubles on the Whites, as they controlled the areas which would have supplied the factories with produce.

It centred on all industries being nationalised and saw the introduction of strict centralised management, state control of foreign trade, forbidding strikes of any nature by workers, labour duty by non-working classes, prodrazvyorstka – which is claiming agricultural surplus from peasants for centralised distribution among the remaining population – rationing of food and most commodities, with centralised distribution in urban centres, private enterprise being banned and military-style control of the railways.
