wrong. political maybe a failure, economically a success

Any statistic or something

it stagnated after economy catched up to 1913 level

stalin made economic miracle

read the data

no one ever made lamo

Show me the data

with planned economy

NEP made economy the same it was in 1913, then stagnated

I'd rather talk about fixing modern economies than redoing arguments from 100 years ago

Data about the NEP

you see them there

you can see strong growth associated with postwar reconstruction

This correlates to political crises

Stalin supressed consumption and redirected the entire economy towards heavy industry
That's not a good economic policy if it leads to famines or wastes opportunities for growth in nonindustrial sectors

and when economy is rebuilt it doesn't grow anymore

Like the Civil War and unrest after the bolshevik victory

completely wrong

Light industry, services and agriculture can be important sources of revenue

it catched up with a west and boomed economy quicker than anyone ever managed

Any statistic on investment capital?

first of all, Stalin didn't redrict economy to heavy industry

Or how it affected it negatively

it was prioritised in gosplan activities

but light industry still expanded heavily

The 5 year plans overwhelmingly focused on heavy industry

yes

and that was a great policy

if it was not heavy industry

I did not say agriculture etc. was banned but neglected

Because the NEP was completely needed to get out of a feudal mode of production and gain capital

ussr would be dead

it was all about getting a war industry

that heavy industry

was used

to produce

USSR didn't neglect light industry, that's a common myth
