Book excerpt: Excerpt from Food Supplies in Russia During the World War; Organization and Policy; Food Prices and the Market in Foodstuffs: Russian Series Fortunately such an alternative was at hand in the narrative, amply supported by documentary evidence, of those who had played some part in the conduct of affairs during the War, or who, as close observers in privileged positions, were able to record from first or at least second-hand knowledge the economic history of different phases of the Great War, and of its effect upon society. Thus a series of monographs was planned consisting for the most part of unofficial yet authoritative statements, descriptive or historical, which may best be described as about halfway between memoirs and blue-books. These monographs make up the main body of the work assigned so far. They are not limited to contemporary war-time studies; for the economic history of the War must deal with a longer period than that of the actual fighting. It must cover the years of deflation as well, at least sufficiently to secure some fairer measure of the economic displacement than is possible in purely contempo rary judgments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Russian Revolution and Civil War in the years 1917 to 1921 is one of the most widely studied periods in history. It is also somewhat inevitably one that has generated a huge flow of literature in the decades that have passed since the events themselves. However, until now, historians of the revolution have had no dedicated bibliography of the period and little claim to bibliographical control over the literature. The Russian Revolution and Civil War, 1917-1921offers for the first time a comprehensive bibliographical guide to this crucial and fascinating period of history. The Bibliography focuses on the key years of 1917 to 1921, starting with the February Revolution of 1917 and concluding with the 10th Party Congress of March 1921, and covers all the key events of the intervening years. As such it identifies these crucial years as something more than simply the creation of a communist state.

Book excerpt: "Making use of recently released Soviet archival materials, Hunger and War investigates state food supply policy and its impact on Soviet society during World War II. It explores the role of the state in provisioning the urban population, particularly workers, with food, and in feeding the Red army; the medicalization of hunger; hunger in blockaded Leningrad; and civilian mortality from hunger and malnutrition in other home front industrial regions. New research reported here challenges and complicates many of the narratives and counter-narratives about the war. The authors engage such difficult subjects as starvation mortality, bitterness over privation and inequalities in provisioning, and conflicts among state organizations. At the same time, they recognize the considerable role played by the Soviet state in organizing supplies of food to adequately support the military effort and defense production, and in developing policies that promoted social stability amid upheaval. The book makes a significant contribution to scholarship on the Soviet population's experience of World War II as well as to studies of war and famine"--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Putting Food on what was the Soviet Table written by Michael P. Claudon and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discontent and economic disintegration in this troubled Soviet winter of 1991-92 are everywhere. Shelves in state food stores offer little choice or are empty. Republics ban the export of scarce goods to fellow republics. Price increases threaten to overwhelm the average Soviet family which is already spending 80 percent of its income and many hours in line each week for food. Boris Yeltsin, the first popularly elected president of Russia, hears demands from former supporters that his government resign, because his radical economic reforms are a failure. What is to be done? Putting food on the Soviet table is an essential first step. But correcting 60 years of misguided agricultural and economic policies will not be done in a winter or a year or two. Reforming the agricultural system will take decades. Breaking up inefficient state and collective farms into smaller individual farms or cooperatives, improving roads, storage facilities, and processing plants, and creating free markets that will give producers incentives to respond to consumer needs at reasonable prices will take decades. The task is enormous. But the resources of the former Soviet Union, as the following papers by Soviet and Western agricultural experts indicate, are great. The country produced more wheat, dairy products, vegetables, and small grains than the United States did in 1990. The country does have the potential to feed itself, but not by producing more. The country's current "food crisis" results not from poor harvests, though they are a factor, but from an inability to get food efficiently from the field to the table. Anywhere from 20 to 50 percent of Soviet food crops is lost in this process. If agrarian reform is to succeed, however, it must also be coupled with comprehensive economic reform: the acceptance of private property, free market pricing, and the elimination of central bureaucracies. In the short run, contributors agree, the West will need to provide humanitarian food aid to meet emergency needs and to support emerging and fragile democratic governments. But the West can best aid the former Soviet Union by providing long-term technical assistance and people-to-people programs that help the Soviets develop a market economy and the skills to run small, independent farms. What is clear from these papers is that there is no quick fix for the agricultural problems of the former Soviet Union. But what is also clear is the country does have the potential to put food on the table and feed its people well.
