Why were socialist/communist governments in Russia and China so unrestrained in their brutality towards their peasants?

History
1 answer:
snow_lady [41]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It needs to be seen individually.

Explanation:

In The Soviet Union, the Russian Revolution was essentially an industrial revolution. After taking power Stalin collectivized the farms, wiping out the more prosperous kulaks, and pursued these policies with a ruthlessness, such as in the Ukraine where millions died of starvation. Such action was seen as essential in providing sufficient food for the masses and establishing central, communist control. The unrestrained nature of Stalin's policies also reflect the dictatorial nature of the man and the structure he established to allow him to act in that way.

In China, the revolution was essentially a rural one based on the peasants. Mao's armies were peasant armies and he instructed that the peasants be treated with respect during the civil war and immediately after he gained power in 1949. However during the 50's he too pursued economic policies, particularly collectivization of communes which again led to disastrous food shortage leading to possibly up to 40 million victims of starvation.

What physical feature best supported the development of early societies?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

While lakes and ponds may sound like the perfect water source, they could quickly become polluted, as water sources often doubled as toilets. As such, some form of water that moved was preferable. For this reason, many of the greatest early civilizations, such as the Egyptians and the Sumerians, developed near rivers.

What concern about slavery did the American Colonization Society seed to address?
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

American Colonization Society, in full American Society for Colonizing the Free People of Color of the United States, American organization dedicated to transporting freeborn blacks and emancipated slaves to Africa. It was founded in 1816 by Robert Finley, a Presbyterian minister, and some of the country’s most influential men, including Francis Scott Key, Henry Clay, and Bushrod Washington (nephew of George Washington and the society’s first president). Support for it came from local and state branches and from churches, and the federal government provided some initial funding. The membership was overwhelmingly white—with some clergymen and abolitionists but also a large number of slave owners—and all generally agreed with the prevailing view of the time that free blacks could not be integrated into white America.

What did fibonacci believe in
KatRina [158]
He believed that the Arabic Numeral System was more efficient than the Roman Numeral System. 

He also believed that his system, named the Fibonacci Sequence, occurred throughout nature in processes like evolution and even the distances of the planets from the sun (which is crazy). There's still debate on whether it really applies or not, but the number of things things people have found that do work is immense.
