INDUSTRIALIZATION IN THE USSR (LATE 1920S - EARLY 1940S): RESERVES AND SOURCES OF FUNDS
The problems of funds sources for industrialization in the USSR in the 1930s are considered. The problem of financial reserves (mobilization capabilities of the administrative-command system, expropriation of expropriators, nationalization - primarily land, etc.) is posed. Among the sources of funds for the implementation of the «initial socialist accumulation» are considered both traditional (export and withdrawal from the village), and those that are less likely to come to the attention of researchers (selling alcohol, works of art, the benefits of Torgsin's activities, etc.).
