Socialist Agricultural Policy: Origins and Implementations
Keywords:
Kmetijska politika, Socialistične države, Vzhodna EvropaSynopsis
In the fall of 2023, the Conference on Rural History in Cluj provided the setting for a panel discussion on the modalities of cooperativism as both a concept and a practice in socialist Eastern Europe after the Second World War. This discussion inevitably led to an examination of agricultural policy under socialism, given that the cooperative idea served as a key instrument for communist authorities in transforming the agricultural sector and imposing strict restrictions on private agriculture.
