Soviet Union substantially improved well-being of its people, when compared to what Russian Empire was before.
Other capitalist countries managed to improve the well being of the people because of wars and financial imperialism.
Holodomor had a lot of reasons, collectivisation was not the main one.
- pelasaco 4y ago> Holodomor had a lot of reasons, collectivisation was not the main one. It is not right. The same "collectivisation" was tried in different countries like GDR (1953 uprising), and China, great Famine, 1959. So same strategy led to same results in different countries.
- gomizari 4y agoNot same, since none of them have such loud names as Holodomor and are not considered genocide anywhere. Collectivization initially leads to decrease and then to increase. In USSR result got so bad due to collection of reasons, unrelated to collectivization. Collectivization was badly needed in USSR, since 95% of population were inefficient farmers. It was a must for later industrialization.
