Who Won? On the Question about the Results of the Discussion at the July (1928) Plenum of the Central Committee of the All- UNION Communist Party (B)

Feldman M.A.

Abstract

The article argues that the State plan of 1927–1928, prepared by economists and employees, envisioned a substantial modernization of the country on the basis of the mixed economy. The July (1928) Plenum of the CPSU Central Committee (b) demonstrated a real alternative to the «left course» – a variant of the country's industrialization and transformation of the peasant economy on the principles of the new economic policy.

Keywords
